An apparatus for hanging garments is disclosed. The apparatus includes a hanger device, and a substantially rigid support mechanism coupled to the hanger device. The support mechanism includes a slit extending through at least part of the support mechanism, and one or a plurality of button holes on at least one side of the slit, such that when a garment with one or a plurality of buttons is on the hanger device, a side of the garment with the one or a plurality of buttons extends through the slit so that at least one of the one or a plurality of buttons is inserted through at least one of the one or a plurality of button holes.

The present invention relates to an ergonomically shaped kettlebell apparatus that saves the user's hands and wrists from common injuries that occur during kettlebell workouts. The kettlebell includes one or more handle cutouts and an angled backside. The handle cutouts are shaped to reduce the heavy friction that kettlebells apply to the user's hands, especially the outside of the pinky fingers during a two handed kettlebell swing, which typically causes friction hotspots. The angled backside shaves down between approximately a quarter of an inch to two inches off the back half of the kettlebell, such that it is shaped to reduce the stress and impact placed on the back of the user's wrist and forearm during a kettlebell flipping motion such as a one handed kettlebell snatch or when the kettlebell is held in an upright position, which typically causes wrist and forearm injuries.

After deploying its payload, the final stage of a launch vehicle is maneuvered to couple the nosecone of the launch vehicle to the ‘rear’, or ‘engine-end’ of the final stage. The nosecone covers the engine of the final stage, to protect the engine and related components from the heat of re-entry and the impact of landing. Placing the nosecone over the engine and orienting the combination such that the nosecone ‘leads’ the final stage during re-entry, places the center of gravity of the combination ahead of the center of pressure in the direction of travel. Accordingly, the combination is inherently stable as it re-enters the atmosphere and falls to earth. Parachutes and directional devices are used to provide a controlled soft landing.

A system and method for installing, deploying, and recovering a plurality of spacecraft that provides an ease of use and structural stability, and facilitates a standardization of spacecraft design. In embodiments of this invention, threaded rods are arranged orthogonal to a surface of a baseplate, and each spacecraft includes a coupling mechanism that selectively engages or disengages each threaded rod. Each spacecraft is added to the stack by engaging its coupling mechanism and rotating the threaded rods while the preceding spacecraft on the stack disengage their coupling mechanisms, thereby enabling the spacecraft to travel along the threaded rods toward the baseplate. When all of the spacecraft are added to the stack, the stack is preloaded by rotating the treaded rods into a terminator component at the top of the stack while the coupling mechanisms in all of the spacecraft are disengaged. Spacecraft are deployed by reversing the process.
