A wire retracting device includes a base having a platform, a limiting board disposed on the base, a cover including a top surface and a side wall, a slide block slidably disposed on a sliding area, and a transmission wire disposed in an accommodating space formed between the cover and the base. An annular wall is arranged on the platform, and has a limiting portion that has a first stop portion and a second stop portion respectively formed on two sides thereof. A gap, in which the cover is limited to being movable, is formed between the limiting board and the platform. The top surface has a grooved opening, and a lever is arranged on an inner edge thereof. The side wall is disposed along an edge of the top surface. The sliding area is formed between the inner edge of the grooved opening and the annular wall.

The present invention relates to an automatic winding device for a golf towel, which can hold a towel out of a case when a user pulls the towel and automatically wind the towel so that the towel is put into the case when the user pulls and releases the towel after using it, thereby providing user convenience.

A retractable pet leash comprises a shell with opposite ends, a rolling disc contained in the shell, a rope wound in the rolling disc, a locking button and a locking member; the shell is provided with a mounting hole; the locking button includes a mounting seat, a pulling member and a resetting member; the mounting seat is pivoted inside the shell; the mounting seat has a main body and a sliding slot passing through the main body; the pulling member is arranged on the mounting seat, a bottom of the pulling member passes through the sliding slot to connect the resetting member; the locking member is pivoted inside the shell and has a pivoting seat, a pivoting part, a locking part and the pressing part; the locking part cooperates with adjacent teeth of the rolling disc, the pressing part cooperates with the resetting part.

This invention is about a string line holder, used by construction workers for aligning construction units, that is inexpensive to make because of its simplicity in structure and its material which string line holder, after the string line is used up or defrayed, can be completely disposed of and replaced by another inexpensive string line holder of the same structure. The string line holder is made from a cylindrically shaped reel or spool on which the string line is wound and has an elongated handle which can be entirely inserted within a cylindrical passageway through the reel or spool and can be partially withdrawn from the cylindrical passageway such that the reel or spool can be rotated around a portion of the elongated handle. The string line holder, including the reel or spool and the elongated handle, is constructed from an inexpensive material such as cardboard or plastic.

A device for taking a measurement of a dimension of a part of the body of a patient, includes: an electronic tape measure having a portable housing, a winder accommodated in the housing, a tape which is partially wound on the winder and of which a portion, called the “unwound portion”, extends outside the housing, and a measuring module for a measurement, relative to the unwound portion; a consistency control module for checking the consistency of the measurement by at least one consistency rule and at least one context datum; and an alert module for delivering an alert if an inconsistency is detected by the consistency control module.

A retractable leash and collar/harness assembly. The assembly includes a flexible handle with a hub assembly in the forward end thereof. The hub assembly contains a spring member and leash line coiled and enclosed within the hub. The leash line is connected to a collar or harness and the handle and collar or harness include a connector thereon to allow the components to be nested each other and folded to provide a compact retractable leash and collar/harness assembly which is easily transportable by the user.

A support reel assembly for installing vapor barrier on a wall of a building includes a first bracket that can be mounted to a wall of a building. A second bracket is provided that can be mounted to the wall having the second bracket being aligned with the first bracket. A first bubble level is coupled to the second bracket and a second bubble level is coupled to the second bracket for leveling the second bracket along a horizontal axis and a vertical axis. A pole is coupled to and extends away from the second bracket thereby facilitating the roll of vapor barrier to be drawn along the wall for installation on the wall. Additionally, the pole engages the first bracket.

A strap winding, storage, and dispensing assembly for storing and dispensing a plurality of straps includes a spacing element engaged to and extending between a pair of plates. Each of a set of strap stowing units engaged to the pair of plates comprises a spindle having a winding element and a braking element operationally engaged thereto. The spindle can engage a respective end of a strap so that the strap is removably engaged to the spindle. The winding element is positioned to selectively rotate the spindle, in a first direction, to coil the strap therearound. The braking element is engaged to a respective one of the plates and is positioned to selectively engage the spindle, to prevent rotation thereof, to retain the strap therearound. The braking element also is positioned to selectively disengage the spindle so that the spindle can rotate in a second direction to uncoil the strap.

An unwinder for a sheet material has a housing and has crosspieces arranged laterally in the housing. To ensure the functionality of the unwinder even in the case of relatively large winding cores or of relatively large rollers, the crosspiece is connected, in a releasable and non-releasable manner, to an accommodating element of which the surface-area portions, which correspond to the crosspiece, enclose the crosspiece and have accommodating surfaces for the product which is to be unwound.

An adjustment device includes a housing supporting a rotatable spool that is operably coupled to a tension line. The spool is configured to rotate about a first axis in a first direction to wind the tension line around the spool and is configured to rotate about the first axis in a second direction opposite the first rotational direction to unwind the at least one tension line from the spool. The device includes a lever pivotally coupled to the housing and configured to rotate about a second axis. The lever is selectively coupled to the spool to drive rotation of the spool in the first direction. The device also includes a release mechanism that is configured to selectively release the spool such that the spool is free to rotate in either the first or second direction in response to manual forces applied to the release mechanism.
