연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

A hand-held gripping device of claim 1, wherein the central portion comprises glow in the dark material. 3. A hand-held gripping device, comprising: a jaw portion comprising a pair of jaws movable relative to each other between fully clamped and fully opened positions thereof;a handle portion spaced apart from the jaw portion by a selectively extendible central portion, the handle portion comprising a first manually-actuatable trigger operatively connected to the jaw portion by a selectively extendible pull member at least substantially disposed within the central portion, whereby actuation of the trigger is operative to move the pull member to thereby selectively position the pair of jaws between the fully clamped and fully opened position thereof, whereby said fully clamped position is achieved when said trigger is pulled;wherein said central portion comprises a hollow, corrugated member having alternating ridges and grooves, said corrugated member being bendable so as to attain a predetermined shape, said corrugated member constructed of plastic and being bendable so as to attain a predetermined shape; said pull member comprising at least one cord operatively connecting the handle portion to the jaw portion, said at least one cord extending through said corrugated member and being entirely encompassed by said central portion;wherein the central portion comprises glow in the dark material. 4. A hand-held gripping device, comprising: a jaw portion comprising a pair of jaws movable relative to each other between fully clamped and fully opened positions thereof;a handle portion spaced apart from the jaw portion by a selectively extendible central portion, the handle portion comprising a first manually-actuatable trigger operatively connected to the jaw portion by a selectively extendible pull member at least substantially disposed within the central portion, whereby actuation of the trigger is operative to move the pull member to thereby selectively position the pair of jaws between the fully clamped and fully opened position thereof, whereby said fully clamped position is achieved when said trigger is pulled;wherein said central portion comprises a hollow, corrugated member having alternating ridges and grooves, said corrugated member being bendable so as to attain a predetermined shape, said corrugated member constructed of plastic and being bendable so as to attain a predetermined shape; said pull member comprising at least one cord operatively connecting the handle portion to the jaw portion, said at least one cord extending through said corrugated member and being entirely encompassed by said central portion;wherein at least two portions of the central portion column comprise said hollow, corrugated member, wherein a user can preposition each of said portions for a desired bent configuration. 5. A hand-held gripping device of claim 4, wherein the central portion comprises glow in the dark material. 6. The device as set forth in claim 4, wherein the central portion comprises at least 6 inches of the hollow, corrugated member. 7. The hand-held gripping device of claim 4, wherein at least a portion of said central portion is in telescoping relationship with an adjacent portion of said central portion. 8. A hand-held gripping device, comprising: a jaw portion comprising a pair of jaws movable relative to each other between fully clamped and fully opened positions thereof;a handle portion spaced apart from the jaw portion by a selectively extendible central portion, the handle portion comprising a first manually-actuatable trigger operatively connected to the jaw portion by a selectively extendible pull member at least substantially disposed within the central portion, whereby actuation of the trigger is operative to move the pull member to thereby selectively position the pair of jaws between the fully clamped and fully opened position thereof whereby said fully clamped position is achieved when said trigger is pulled;wherein said central portion comprises a hollow, corrugated member having alternating ridges and grooves, said corrugated member being bendable so as to attain a predetermined shape, said corrugated member constructed of plastic and being bendable so as to attain a predetermined shape;said pull member comprising at least one cord operatively connecting the handle portion to the jaw portion, said at least one cord extending through said corrugated member and being entirely encompassed by said central portion; andwherein the central portion comprises a bendable portion made of two or more corrugated members provided at different relative locations along the central portion of the device. 9.
