Abstract: A centrifugal operated switch particularly suitable for operating a circuit for starter windings of a motor. A spindle is connected to and rotated by the motor shaft. Swing arms connected to the spindle move upwardly and outwardly in response to rotational speed of the spindle. A plunger is movable in the spindle, and moves together with movement of the swing arms. The plunger is operationally connected to a contactor having one end electrically connected to a first terminal, and a second end alternatively connected to and disconnected from a second terminal. Movement of the plunger causes movement of the contactor.

Abstract: An injection molded work surface for use in conjunction with a portable clothes washer includes a decorative laminate top surface and an underlying injection molded substrate. The substrate is provided with a connecting structure facilitating convenient attachment to the upper surface of the clothes washer.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a urine collection bag with a tilt bag indicator on the front wall thereof. The indicator comprises a clear patch or housing disposed to the side of the input conduit of the containment bag. An orifice is disposed through the front wall to provide communication between the chamber of the collection bag and the chamber defined by the transparent patch and the front wall of the bag. If the bag is tilted, urine will escape the collection bag chamber and go into the indicator chamber, and be trapped there. This will alert appropriate medical personnel that a reflux of urine up the input conduit, thus allowing whatever corrective action be taken, as necessary.
