US Classification:

224218

Abstract:

A pen pack is disclosed which is mountable on the back of the writing hand of a user to provide ready access to a writing, marking or scribing implement when required. The pen pack includes a telescopic writing implement and an actuating mechanism disposed in a casing which may be readily affixed to the wearer's hand. The actuating mechanism includes a plunger which is depressed against an external object to actuate the pen pack, a feeder line subassembly which coacts with the plunger, and a rotational shaft which also coacts with the plunger and to which the telescopic writing instrument is affixed. Depression of the plunger causes the telescopic writing instrument to rotate into a writing position. Concomitantly, the feeder line subassembly causes the telescopic writing instrument to be extended to a fully telescoped position so that the user may grip the writing instrument and utilize it for writing, marking or scribing. The feeder line subassembly also includes a retraction mechanism which causes the telescopic writing instrument to be returned to its original position when the user releases the telescopic writing instrument.

Gary Anthony Horgan - Waltham MA, US

International Classification:

H02G 1/12
G01B 5/02

Abstract:

A depth gauge is provided that is configured to be removably coupled to a tool. The depth gauge having a gauge body, a coupling means to removably couple the gauge body to the tool and a fiducial on the gauge body whereby the fiducial signifies a distance between the fiducial and a portion of the tool. In some embodiments, the coupling means comprises a magnet. In some embodiments, the tool is a wire stripper whereby when the wire stripper is actuated on a coated wire, the wire stripper cuts a portion of the wire coating equal to the distance defined by the fiducial. In some embodiments, the fiducial comprises an abutment protruding from the gauge body. In some embodiments, the depth gauge has multiple fiducials and the gauge body and the fiducials are formed as one piece.
