said outer member includes a case for a cycle computer adapted to be mounted on a bicycle.
9. A decorative member being adapted to be coupled to a main functional member and having a surface that is externally exposed, said decorative member being for outdoors use under the condition of exposing to wind and rain, in which an electronic circuit is housed and comprising:
an outer member made of a metal, said outer member having inner and outer surfaces; and
at least one inner member made of a synthetic resin and being fixedly attached to said inner surface of said outer member, said decorative member being adapted to be coupled to the main function member via said inner member,
said inner member being attached to said outer member by chemical bonding.
10. The decorative member for outdoor use set forth in claim 9, wherein
said inner member is attached to said inner surface of said outer member by diffusing a fine triazine thiol powder on said inner surface of said outer member by an electro-deposition plating process and then integrally forming said inner member with said inner surface of said outer member via said diffused triazine thiol powder.
The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. A cutting horse trainer, comprising:
a carriage for engaging with a rail of a fence;
a motor coupled to the carriage for drawing the transport mechanism along the rail in a selected direction;
a simulated calf coupled to the carriage mechanism, wherein the orientation of the calf is dependent upon the selected direction.
2. The cutting horse trainer of claim 1, wherein the motor is coupled to a line attached to the fence.
3. The cutting horse trainer of claim 2 wherein the motor is coupled to a plurality of pulleys, said pulleys engaged with the line, such as when the motor rotates in a first direction, the carriage moves along the rail in a first direction and when the motor rotates in a second direction, the carriage moves along the rail in a second direction.
4. The cutting horse trainer of claim 3 wherein the motor rotates in a first or second direction responsive to a remote control.
5. The cutting horse trainer of claim 1 wherein the carriage is coupled to the rail using a plurality of rotating members for engaging with the rail and for holding the carriage onto the rail.
6. The cutting horse trainer of claim 5 wherein one of the rotating members is coupled to a rod, wherein said rod is coupled to the simulated calf, such as the calf rotates responsive to movement of the one rotating member.
7. The cutting horse trainer of claim 6 and further comprising a stopping mechanism for stopping the simulated calf from rotating beyond predetermined positions.
8. The cutting horse trainer of claim 1 wherein the simulated calf is coupled to the carriage by an extension, and wherein the extension can be rotated upwards, such that the simulated calf and extension a positioned away from possible contact with animals in the pen.
9. The cutting horse trainer of claim 8 wherein the extension includes one or more hinges.
10. The cutting horse trainer of claim 9 wherein the extension includes two hinges.
11. A cutting horse trainer, comprising:
a carriage having a plurality of rotating member for engaging with a rail of a fence of a pen, having an interior and an exterior, such that the rotating member rotate as the carriage moves along the rail;
a motor coupled to the carriage and to a cord disposed on or proximate to the fence, where the carriage moves along the rail in a first direction when the motor rotates in a first direction and the carriage moves along the rail in a second direction when the motor rotates in a second direction;
a simulated calf coupled to the carriage mechanism by an extending member, wherein the orientation of the calf is dependent upon the selected direction.
12. The cutting horse trainer of claim 11 wherein the simulated calf is coupled to a rotatable rod, which rotates responsive to rotation of one of said rotating members.
13. The cutting horse trainer of claim 12 and further comprising a remote control for controlling rotation of the motor.
14. The cutting horse trainer of claim 11 wherein the extending member folds in a direction away from the interior of the pen.
