Abstract: The housing of a hinge assembly is provided with elongated apertures and a plate of less width than the housing is clamped over the apertures by mounting screws which secure the housing to a cabinet. The housing wall and the surface of the plate are serrated to secure the plate against lateral movement after being clamped to the housing. A cover is snap-fitted onto the housing to seal off the elongated apertures and to eliminate any exposed gaps.
Abstract: A clear crystalline faceted substrate is provided with a coating of a colored transparent ink in order to enhance the appearance of the otherwise inexpensive gem stone. The ink is a permanent type ink made from n-propanol, n-butanol and diacetone alcohol which is soluble in a solution having a isopropyl alcohol 99% strength. Once the coating has been applied to a substrate such as a cubic zirconia to enhance the appearance of the gem stone, the coating can be removed by use of the solvent. A fresh coating of a different color may then be applied.

Abstract: The plastic hanger is provided with a cross-bar of S-shape cross-section and a pair of clips. One jaw of each clip is integrally molded with the cross-bar while the opposed jaw is separately molded and held in place by a spring clip which biases the clamping ends of the jaws together. The cross-bar is provided with spacers at the ends to space adjacent hangers apart. The upper finger-receiving end of the jaw integrated with the cross-bar is contoured and provided with a shoulder to give the appearance that the upper end of the jaw is separate from the cross-bar.
Abstract: The kickball information delivery system employs a ball having an internally disposed device for emitting a first sound location signal, a base transmitter unit for emitting a second sound location signal as well as a signal and an information unit to be mounted on a person for emitting a third pulsed sound signal to indicate the location of the person. In addition, the information unit is able to receive the signal and to use the reception of the signal to change the pulse frequency of the third sound signal to indicate alignment with the signal, for example to permit running from home plate to first base.
