Abstract: An elongate tubular housing includes a housing first end spaced from a housing second end coaxially aligned to mount rotatably a shaft, wherein the shaft is arranged for projection through the first end, with the shaft having a screw driver bit driver at the shaft second end recessed below the housing second end in a first position, wherein the shaft is arranged for reciprocation within the shaft for projection therefrom to extend the shaft in a screw driving procedure, with the shaft including a handle for manually securing the shaft during a driving procedure.
Abstract: A switch member mechanically operatively functional through a cable directed into the passenger compartment of the associated motor vehicle is arranged to effect discontinuance of grounding to the battery of the associated vehicle, wherein the switch member includes a pivotal blade mounted in selective electrical communication between first and second bifurcated contact posts. A mounting bracket within the passenger compartment directs illumination onto a pull handle that in turn is secured to the cable.
Abstract: Spaced curtain supports of a mirror image configuration are arranged for magnetic adherence to a ferrous metallic wall surface, wherein each support includes a projecting flange arranged to accommodate curtain rods of selective rigid or telescoping construction.
Abstract: First and second telescoping support tubes are arranged for securement relative to one another in an extended orientation and provided with respective first and second rigid foot members, wherein the foot members are arranged to be received within respective shoes to be imposed to the interior surface of a conventional rotary drying machine.
Abstract: A heating disc is arranged for positioning within an air duct portion of a vehicular heating conduit, wherein a cylindrical side wall mounts an electrical resistance heating coil therewithin arranged for operative communication with the electrical system in an associated vehicle. The apparatus is arranged to optionally employ a mesh grid structure in a replaceable manner, wherein the mesh grid includes a surrounding fragrance dispensing tube structure about the leg portions of the grid structure.
Abstract: A lunch box container including a bottom wall and a hingedly mounted top wall includes ferrous metallic floors directed into the bottom and top walls recessed relative to the bottom and top walls respectively to receive and secure ferromagnetic inserts to permit configurational changes to the lunch box structure to enhance continued use by individuals. A modification of the invention includes illumination frameworks arranged to direct illumination onto inserts within the frameworks.
Abstract: A truck trailer includes a push plate extensible and retractable relative to a front wall of the trailer structure employing hydraulic ram structure to project the plate along the trailer floor, that in turn includes a row of rollers operative through a drive chain to simultaneously rotate the rollers to direct workpieces from the rollers employing the push plate to direct workpieces along the roller structure.
Abstract: A tool handle having a tool head mounted at a first end of the tool handle includes a handle shaft telescopingly mounted within the tool handle arranged for securement within the associated handle tube in a first position and projecting the handle tube in a second position to provide for increased application of leverage and torque in use of the tool head.
Abstract: A tubular shaft is arranged for supporting a clothesline, having a first end arranged for securement to an underlying support surface and a second end having a head member, with a T-shaped slot to receive the clothesline therewithin, and a cap arranged to receive the head to capture the clothesline within the cap and head structure.
Abstract: An elongate handle mounts a support plate, with the support plate including a slide plate arranged in a sliding coaxial relationship along the support plate relative to the handle, with the support plate having a first fixed jaw and a second movable jaw displaceable along the support plate, with the slide plate having an indicator lug arranged for indication of a fastener size positioned between the jaws, as indicated, upon one of a plurality of scales on opposed sides of the indicator lug.
Abstract: A level includes a compass member fixedly mounted within the level, the level having spirit levels positioned on opposed sides of the compass, and the compass having a rotatable ring arranged to provide for angular deflection relative to a predetermined orientation.
Abstract: A roller shoe includes a shoe upper having a first sole mounting a second sole, with the second sole including a plurality of spaced parallel roller cylinders mounted to the second sole projecting therefrom to provide for a rolling surface relative to an underlying surface, with forward and rear ends of the second sole having brake resilient lugs projecting therefrom.
Abstract: A container member is arranged to include a surrounding wall, having a first support wall arranged to accommodate a row of peg members, that in turn are rotatably mounted about an axle, with a second support wall spaced from the first support wall and axle to accommodate the peg members upon rotation of the peg members from the first support wall, such that each peg member includes a digital enumeration upon an end wall of a respective peg member. Upon the throwing of dice onto the floor of the container, the total of the dice thusly rolled is replicated by the enumeration of the peg members until further replication by further throwing of the dice is not available.
Abstract: A feeding tube support includes a base plate having a pedestal, with the pedestal having a support leg pivotally mounted to the pedestal, the pedestal and support leg further including a further support leg pivotally mounted to an uppermost end of the support leg, with the further support leg including an opening directed therethrough for the mounting of a feed tube, and the feed tube in fluid communication with a gastronomy tube. The structure is arranged for interfolding for compact storage and transport during periods of non-use.
Abstract: A scissor-like member is arranged to include cooperative arcuate jaws arranged to secure and receive a central bulb element therewithin for its grasping and rotation to remove the central bulb relative to an associated socket.
