Abstract: An integrated child booster seat, to allow more securely switching of a usual seat and a child seat with a relatively simple configuration, in which a seat cushion is configured by a cushion part in which a seat for a general passenger is formed on one side and a child seat is formed on the reverse side, a coupling pipe which coaxially supports the front and the back of the cushion part and which is swingably held with outside of lateral sides of the cushion part in the center of turning, supporting parts that bind and support the cushion part, and binding release parts that release binding by the supporting parts of the cushion part.

Abstract: A vehicle seat includes: (a) a seat structure having a seat cushion frame including a first seat side member and a second seat side member, and a seat back frame; (b) a seat slide mechanism that is capable of moving the seat structure; (c) a first upper riser that is fixed to the seat slide mechanism and supports the first seat side member; (d) a second upper riser that is fixed to the seat slide mechanism and supports the second seat side member; (e) a first locking mechanism that locks and unlocks the first seat side member to and from the seat slide mechanism; and (f) a second locking mechanism that locks the second seat side member to the seat slide mechanism when an excessive load is input.

Abstract: A kitchen appliance apparatus (10) mountable on a work surface (12) for performing a culinary function includes a culinary unit (14) and a base (16) for the culinary unit. The apparatus (10) includes a suction assembly (48) that includes a suction member (50) that forms a bottom surface of the base (16). The suction assembly (48) is operable to form a vacuum between the suction member (50) and the work surface (12) that releasably connects the base (16) to the work surface. A clamp assembly (100) includes a clamping member (112) that has a clamping surface spaced from and presented toward the suction member (50). The clamping member (112) is movable toward the suction member (50) to clamp the work surface (12) between the clamping member and the suction member.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed where a musical system is integrated with an outdoor seating apparatus, such that a user may rest comfortably while listening to music. The musical system is designed to withstand outdoor weather conditions. The musical system, typically a radio, is integrated with the backrest portion of the seating apparatus. The radio is designed to function in both extreme hot and cold temperatures. The radio also features RCA inputs, so that external signal inputs may be played on the radio's speakers. A cellular modem and interface is present so that a computer can connect to the Internet. An adapter is also present so a cell phone can connect to the radio, and use the radio's speakers. The speakers can be magnetic coil based, or may use flat panel speaker technology.

Abstract: A treatment effective for removing or substantially reducing the amount of Cr+6 present in drinking water or wastewater is described. The method includes adding a stannous salt of a non-carbon acid, in an amount effective to reduce most or substantially all of the chromic ion in the water.

Abstract: Effective corrosion inhibitors having minimal organic content, particularly suitable for use in municipal drinking water systems, are described. The corrosion inhibiting additive is a stannous salt of a non-carbon acid.

Abstract: A sales display organizer for a pair of gloves linked by a flexible line having an attached tag consisting of a sleeve to hold one of the gloves and a transparent pocket mounted on the sleeve to hold the tag leaving the second glove free to be tried by a protective purchaser.

Abstract: Effective corrosion inhibitors having minimal organic content, particularly suitable for use in municipal drinking water systems, are described. The preferred corrosion inhibiting additive is an aqueous solution of a stannous halide, preferably stannous chloride.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and compositions useful for inhibiting corrosion of a corrodible metal resulting from contact of water and air with the metal. In this method, a stannous salt and a hydrocarbyl substituted succinimide of a polyethylene polyamine, separately or in combination, are added to the water in a minor amount and reduce corrosion of the metal to a substantially low rate.

Abstract: So as to prevent improper wire feeding, a vibration applying device such as an electromagnetic means, etc., is provided which applies a vibration to a spool when the spool is rotated in order to feed out a wire from the spool.
