  • Patent number: 6938277
    Abstract: Eyewear member includes a structure for fitting peripherally on or around or behind lens and structure of conventional eyewear. Interfitting structure ranges from sealing segments to eyewear members which may attachably engage or simply interfit behind conventional eyewear. The eyewear members enables conventional eyewear to form a closer fit with the face of the user to protect the person's eyes from wind, water and foreign material. All embodiments contemplate selectable removabilty, replace ability and interchangeability.

  • Patent number: 6901701
    Abstract: A pre-cut, pre-painted shutter door includes a pair of vertical members available in a range of discrete or quantum heights, and having a two level slot along their length for engaging an upper and a lower panel to form the outer portions of a shutter door. Vertical members are preferably pre-tapped with bores to facilitate threaded member access to engagement for attachment to the upper and lower panels. The upper and lower panels have a curved surface to either facilitate direct manual pivoting of the louvers or to provide clearance for an optional common actuator bar. A louver pivot support fits within the two level slot of the vertical members and carries a series of pre-drilled holes for pivotally supporting the louvers. Both the vertical members, panels and louver member supports are of constant cross section to facilitate the use of finger joints and to promote continuous extrusion-type processing. A series of louvers have shafts which extend through pre-drilled holes in the louver pivot supports.

  • Patent number: 6893141
    Abstract: A light generating flashlight system device utilizes a large centrally located magnet which is mounted to slide past a magnet pickup or current induction wire which may be preferably mounted at a center point of travel in a tubular housing having a tubular chamber through which the magnet travels. A pair of elastomeric dampers are located each at the end of a support system sleeve which is sized to fit within a main housing to stabilize all internal support within a sealed unit. The result is a device which both facilitates the manual movement of the flashlight body so that the magnet slides past the center magnet pickup or current induction wire, and also conserves the residual momentum of the magnet once it has traveled past the magnet pickup or current induction wire by providing a bumper and spring to conserve some of the mechanical energy going in the other direction. Ninety second of manual activation enables about five minutes of illumination.

  • Patent number: 6866298
    Abstract: A toilet valve quick connect includes an upper housing having a capture chamber which facilitates the operation of a capture nut with oversized outward peripheral portions to enable it to be turned within the confines of a typical toilet tank. The toilet valve quick connect has a lower section which extends through the hole in a typical toilet tank and is secured in much the same way as a conventional toilet valve fitting. The toilet valve quick connect includes an internal conical sealing member for facilitating the sealed connection with the bottom rim and inside of a conventional toilet valve fitting. A capture housing partially encloses the capture nut to enable it to engage the threaded bottom fitting of a conventional toilet valve and to impress a downward force on the threaded bottom fitting.

  • Patent number: 6866079
    Abstract: A blind extension system with removable soft side blinders or light blocking structures provides an organizational system which can be used to reduce light due to improper sized blinds without damaging the blinds or the window frame itself. In one embodiment, a sock-like structure is used to attach lengths of decorative materials at the outer ends of horizontal blinds. The sock-like structures are provided periodically along the vertical length of a projecting soft, decorative material. A series of extension pins can be used to assist the horizontal extension of the soft decorative material sufficient to reach the sides of the window opening space. Alternative methods of attachment are shown including a first embodiment of a clip attachable with vertical movement onto the elongate edge of a louver, and a second embodiment of a clip which is attachable with horizontal movement directly onto the end edge of the louver.

  • Patent number: 6862987
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a porous resin stamp which can repeatedly seal without supplying ink for a long period of time by beforehand soaking ink therein. The present invention also relates to a cartridge comprising the porous resin stamp and a stamp comprising the cartridge. Colors of the stamp can be intentionally adjusted by adjusting the amount of heating materials combined or the mixing rate of heating materials. Thus, it is possible to precisely check the desired letters, designs, patterns and so on. Furthermore, it is possible to intentionally adjust efficiency rate of heat generation of the heating materials by suitably changing the amount of heating materials. This makes it possible to express any small letters, minute designs and patterns with high reproducibility.

  • Patent number: 6863111
    Abstract: The system is applicable to any system having need for a positive stop at the end of a period of travel. In a vertical blind track system, a lead carrier which is typically manipulated by a control wand with universal linkage can include an installable and removable end stop engagement structure. This structure fits onto conventional lead carriers within a slot which is upwardly directed and at one side of the lead carrier. The installable and removable end stop engagement structure has a wide lateral slot, and including a first engagement member for engaging an edge of one end of the slot on the lead carrier, and a second engagement member which is angled and placed next to an extension to facilitate manual engagement and removal of the installable and removable end stop engagement structure. Once mounted in place, it aligns with, and is force or momentum inserted into and through a stop engagement aperture.
