  • Patent number: 6422849
    Abstract: The present invention employs an injector base which provides a platform for the components of the overall injector tool. Connected to the injector base is a suction cup which is used to attach the injector tool to the windshield. Mounted on the injector base are two stabilizers, which allow the base to be stabilized for movement against or relative to the windshield, and an injector shell for applying vacuum, pressure and resin to the windshield crack. The injector shell includes internal to it a bore with a notched injector rod, through which resin is applied to the crack under pressure. At the bottom of the injector shell is an injector tip which is a rubber like material which is place around the crack to be filled and at the top of the injector shell is a handle which is threaded onto the injector shell by turning the handle clockwise places the area just above the crack under pressure and by turning the handle counter-clockwise places the area above the crack under negative pressure or in a vacuum.

  • Patent number: 5627520
    Abstract: An improved device for monitoring the presence of a person, animal or piece of property within a predefined space. The invention consists of a means for attaching to a monitoree, a transmitter assembly containing electronic circuitry which periodically sends a coded signal a limited distance to a remote detection unit. If the expected signal is not received, indicating that the person or object has been removed from the predefined space, an alarm condition is indicated. The transmitter is securely attached to the item being monitored by means of a non-stretchable, flexible, circuit strap which indicates an alarm condition when the strap is tampered with. The strap is locked into the transmitter assembly by a latch key which also triggers the transmitter to begin sending signals. The device is easily reattached or transferred to another item to be monitored by monitoring personnel by removing the latch key and inserting a new latch key after the device has been reinstalled.
