I'd be delighted to receive other commercial product examples. Please feel free to send Suggestions, Additions, Corrections, & Comments.
9.
The manufacturer has rigged this drill to stop immediately when the bit contacts any grounded or electrically live materials so you can't drill through hidden pipes or wiring
10.
In China, where electric power has been scarce, hotel rooms are equipped with a room key holder which turns off the power when the key is removed. This insures no electricity flows to
the room while it is vacant.
11.
This airport luggage cart has brakes which are applied whenever the yellow handle is not depressed. Carts will not roll unless they are attended. When carts nested, the rear wheels of
all but the last cart are wedged off the floor, so the carts can be pushed easily by airport staff retruning them to service areas.
12.
Shoes purchased in discount stores do not have the old metal sliding, shoe-size gauges Fitting small children can be challenging for parents. This foam template seems like a good step.
13.
The Broselow tape is draped over navy satchel. Emergency Medical personnel measure a child with the tape. The color on the tape indicates which packet to use to treat the child.
Everything is appropriately dosed and sized.
14.
Tourists used to right-hand side driving need some help in London. Instructions are printed right on the asphalt. Not the strongest (most controlling) mistakeproofing there is, but I certainly appreciated it.
15.
Overlapping doors are used as firedoors. The problem is that they can be closed incorrectly.
This lovely mistakeproofing device from Wales solved the problem...
by proping the outter door open enough to allow the inner door to swing past before closing completely. You cannot close the door wrongly.
16.
A local oil change facility puts the dip stick on the fender protector. Removing the fender protector will cause the dip stick to clatter on the floor unless it has been reinserted.
Written permission to use these examples can be obtained by writing a short request with
