Abstract: A stroller assembly may be configurable as an assembled stroller having selected components defining one of a plurality of potential stroller configurations. The stroller assembly may include a plurality of constituent assemblies. Each of the constituent assemblies may include a plurality of selectable components that, when selected and combined into the assembled stroller, define a corresponding expression of the stroller assembly.

Abstract: A convertible child safety seat may include a body configured to support an occupant, a base portion operably coupled to the body to support the body where the base portion is configured to be disposed on a vehicle seat base of a vehicle seat in either a forward facing configuration or a rearward facing configuration, and a multi-position anti-rebound bar. The anti-rebound bar may be operably coupled to the base portion or the body such that the anti-rebound bar is pivotable between at least a first position to provide a first function in the rearward facing configuration and a second position to provide a second function different than the first function in the forward facing configuration.

Abstract: A child safety seat may include a base portion configured to be disposed on a vehicle seat base of a vehicle seat, a back portion configured to be disposed proximate to a vehicle seat back of the vehicle seat, and a top tether operably coupled to a portion of the child safety seat to enable the child safety seat to be tethered to an anchor disposed in the vehicle. The top tether may include a quick connect coupler and a first strap portion having a distal end and a proximal end. The distal end of the first strap portion may be configured to engage the anchor. The quick connect coupler may be operably coupled to the first strap portion proximate to the proximal end of the first strap portion. The quick connect coupler may also be configured to enable the first strap portion to be coupled or decoupled from the back portion of the child safety seat.

Abstract: A coating applicator comprising a substrate removably mounted to a frame, where the frame includes an actuator repositionable between an engaging position and a disengaging position, where the engaging position is operative to maintain the substrate in mounting engagement with the frame, where the disengaging position is operative to discontinue the substrate in mounting engagement with the frame, and where the substrate includes a receptor for retaining a coating composition for application.

Abstract: A putty knife coated with a non-stick coating, such as a flurorpolymer, that integrates the non-stick surface properties into the knife thereby making the knife easier to clean and better for applying/removing materials.

Abstract: A paint loading system including a pump and a tray that are releasably mounted on a paint container. The pump is used to discharge paint into the tray, where the paint can be loaded onto an applicator. The tray drains excess paint into the container. The loading system may include a removable tray having surface features aiding in the transfer of paint to the applicator. The loading system includes a spout allowing paint to be poured from the paint container without necessitating the removal of the loading system from the paint container.
