  • Patent number: 5061123
    Abstract: A corrugated rubber device encompassing a relatively rigid and yet expandable larger end to provide a snug fit on the drilling end of electric drills. This corrugated rubber device has recoil capabilities to accommodate the penetration of the drill bit as it progressively sinks to the depth required. This body has a transparent end to facilitate the observation of the accurate start of the drill bit, the transparent end is a holding area to accumulate dust and debris. It has a rubber tip to protect the paint or other surface being drilled.

  • Patent number: 4539722
    Abstract: A expandable mobile house trailer which includes a relatively rigid main body portion having a floor structure and opposite pairs of vertical side and end walls thereabout. Two parallel arch beam supports are located inside of the main body portion. Each of the arch beam supports is positioned adjacent to and affixed to one of the vertical side walls of the main body portion. The ends of the floor are attached to the corresponding ends of the two arch beam supports. A plurality of vertical structural tension members is affixed at spaced intervals to each of the two arch beam supports. The floor is suspended from the lower ends of the vertical structural member. Two of the structural tension members on each of the two arch beam supports are paired, act as main support members and have substantially more structural strength than the other structural tension members. The floor of the main body portion has a wheel well opening on each side between the two paired structural tension members.

  • Patent number: 4522394
    Abstract: A collapsible, movable apparatus, for containing health-sports devices and equipment, which includes a telescoping post support having at least two telescoping segments and a ratchet device for moving each of the adjacent telescoping segments in relation to each other. There is a support adopted to fit slideably on the top telescoping segment without overlapping onto the next telescoping segment. A large horizontally-positioned ring is mounted on the support. A platform is pivotally mounted under the ring so as to be able to swing downwardly when unconnected from the ring. Also, a basketball backboard is vertically mounted to the top portion of the top telescoping segment. The bottom end of the telescoping post is adapted to fit into a tube positioned in the ground or other horizontal surface.

  • Patent number: 4470488
    Abstract: Portable case for such things as a health program. The case includes a bottom housing having a bottom, a back wall, two side walls and a front wall. The front wall has an aperture in the lower part thereof sufficient in size to allow the insertion into or removal therefrom of at least one book from the interior of the bottom housing. There is a top housing having a top, a back wall, two side walls and a front wall. The bottom edge of the back wall of the top housing is hinged to the top edge of the back wall of the bottom housing. The front wall of the top housing is enlarged so that it covers the front portion of the top housing and at least the aperture of the bottom housing. There is a flat lid which is hinged on its back edge to the top edge region of the back wall of the bottom housing of the bottom compartment. The flat lid covers the tray formed by the horizontal wall when in the down position and is in a nearly vertical position when in the raised position.
