  • Patent number: 6799399
    Abstract: A burial structures providing space for multiple human remains has the additional feature of allowing interlocking of individual units. The interlocking prohibits access to the individual cremens or bodily remains. Thus no individual remains are directly accessible. This building feature allows the forming of the mausoleum into innovative designs and shapes. Each unit is an area for the remains, and alternately an area for any memorabilia to be placed with the remains. Formed of a high-strength synthetic material, the unit is scaled with a cover that has grooves formed therein. This structure gives lasting, beautiful and reverent surroundings for the deceased, and is kept safe from vandals and other intrudes.

  • Patent number: 6101953
    Abstract: An apparatus for facilitating the travel of a motor vehicle, designed for roadway travel, upon railways has the capacity to be towed to the rail site by the motor vehicle. The apparatus has a platform having at least one rotatable axle of roadway tires attached thereto. In the deployed position, the roadway wheels allow the apparatus to be towed similarly to a trailer. When the apparatus is properly positioned over a railroad crossing, the rotatable wheels are drawn back to a retraced position, the apparatus is lowered so that rail wheels, mounted to the platform, engage the rails exactly as other rail vehicles. A removable ramp allows the motor vehicle to mount the platform. The wheels of the motor vehicle engage either one or two sets of rollers disposed upon the platform. After the motor vehicle is properly secured, the motor vehicle can be engaged to drive the rollers, with the power delivered to the rollers being transmitted to the train wheels to supply the necessary locomotion.

  • Patent number: 6052954
    Abstract: A burial structures providing space for multiple human remains, whether in form of a body or in the form of cremens, has the additional feature of allowing interlocking of the individual units. Unlike previous units, this interlocking occurs to prohibit access to the individual cremens or bodily remains. Thus, with the exception of a main level accessway, where some cremens are located within the walls, no individual remains are directly accessible. This building feature allows the heretofore unknown ability to form the mausoleum into innovative designs and shapes, from an obelisk shape, like the pyramids of Egypt, to religious symbolisms or aesthetic shapes, thus not solely relying on landscaping for giving beauty and reverence to the mausoleum and its surroundings. Each unit comprises an area for the remains, and alternately an area for any memorabilia to be placed with the remains. Formed of a high-strength synthetic material, the unit is sealed with a cover that has grooves formed therein.

  • Patent number: 5648834
    Abstract: A tension sensing device for motion picture projection equipment is intended for use in a platter feed system. The device is mounted upon a column of a platter system, having a pivoting arm and a stationary or limiting arm. The film is fed over a roller on the pivoting arm, which rests on a micro-switch. The presence of tension in the film feed will cause elevation of the pivot arm, triggering a signal from the micro-switch to a control box. A timing sequence is initiated; if a pre-determined time interval is reached, the power to the projector equipment is interrupted. This device allows for more precise determination of true headwrap condition, avoiding false conditions, and offers a more durable and reliable sensing device.
