Abstract: Solid rinsing, cleaning and/or sanitizing compositions for various applications are provided. In particular, solid compositions include a complex of urea and an acid having desireable storage stability previously unavailable in solid urea/acid compositions. Stable solid compositions are disclosed and methods of making the same to overcome conventional limitations associated with with forming kinetically and thermodynamically stable solids that utilize urea/acid compositions.

The antimicrobial compositions which have a reduced risk of inhalation. Methods of making and employing the compositions are disclosed.

Abstract: The invention provides antimicrobial compositions having reduced inhalation hazards by combining ammonium compounds and an acid component in combination with optional surfactants and/or additional functional ingredients. The antimicrobial compositions which have a reduced risk of inhalation at a pH of between about 0-6. Methods of making and employing the compositions are disclosed.

Abstract: A portable pet feeder and supply storage apparatus has a first compartment having a base and sidewalls defining a first open space; a second compartment having a lid and sidewalls defining a second open space; a divider interposed between the first and second compartments, wherein the second compartment and the divider are hinged to the first compartment, the divider has a gasket; wherein the second compartment and the divider may be pivoted towards the first compartment to assume a closed position, the gasket on the divider providing a water-tight seal between the first compartment and the divider; a water dish and a food dish both removably insertable within the first open space; at least one removable container receivable within the second open space, the removable container configured to be refillable and water-tight; and wherein the second compartment and the divider are removably attachable to the first compartment.

Abstract: Alkaline sprayable aqueous compositions for cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting are disclosed. In particular, the sprayable compositions include an inverse emulsion polymer for modifying the viscosity of the composition and provide numerous benefits over dispersion polymer compositions used for rheology modification to reduce misting and respiratory inhalation of cleaning compositions. Compositions and methods of cleaning using the compositions having reduced amounts of airborne particulates of the composition during spray applications are provided.

Abstract: The invention includes a solid rinse aid that is particularly designed for pressed or extrusion solid formation and which is effective for spotless surfaces after rinsing, especially rinsing metals without corrosion. According to the invention, a solid acid is combined with a short-chain alkylbenzene and alkyl naphthalene sulfonate. The short-chain alkylbenzene and alkyl naphthalene sulfonate act as a solidification agent as well as a hydrotrope, and total dissolved solid (TDS) active and are combined with at least one nonionic low foaming surfactant.

Abstract: A display and carrying package is provided which is particularly adapted for displaying and carrying a bedding ensemble, but which could be used for displaying and carrying any ensemble of products of different sizes. The package is in the form of a closed flexible bag, preferably box-shaped, having generally flat transparent front and rear walls and, preferably, having non-transparent side and top walls connected thereto. The bag preferably includes a zipper for closing and opening the bag to provide access to the interior of the bag. The ensemble of products of different sizes is positioned inside the bag with the large ensemble product in juxtaposition to the transparent front bag wall for viewing therethrough and the other smaller ensemble products are positioned inside the bag, preferably in pockets attached to the inside of the rear wall, in juxtaposition to the rear transparent wall and in side-by-side position for being viewed from the outside through the transparent rear wall.

Abstract: A clutch assembly for selectively engaging and disengaging two rotating members in a transmission. The clutch assembly includes an inner ring defining an outer diameter and an outer ring defining an inner diameter that is greater than the outer diameter of the inner ring. A plurality of rings extend through the clutch assembly between the inner diameter of the outer ring and the outer diameter of the inner ring. The plurality of rings provides selective locking engagement between the inner and outer rings. The clutch assembly also includes a cage for maintaining each of said plurality of rollers in position with respect to said inner and outer rings.

Abstract: A visual barrier for highway use, comprising a horizontal web having a width and a length, wherein the length is greater than the width; and an undulating vertical web orthogonally connected to and extending away from the horizontal web, wherein the vertical web is formed of a thermoplastic material, and in which the horizontal web may be undulating, with first surfaces having holes therethrough and second surfaces without holes, wherein the second surfaces are facing toward oncoming traffic and the first surfaces and the holes are facing away from oncoming traffic.

Abstract: A tree configuration for use in combination with an exercise or racing saddle. The tree is formed by injection molding with a thermoplastic material that results in a flexible, durable, symmetrical and smooth surface entity. The flexibility of the material prevents undue stressing of the tree at points where certain extended members are attached to the main body and, the members return to their original state after usage without maintaining a permanent spread or set. The smoothness and memory characteristic of the material result in minimal damage to the leather portion of the saddle.
