  • Publication number: 20060207922
    Abstract: A storm water filtering system located in a storm water catch basin, the basin having a storm water inlet spaced from at least one storm water outlet and defining a chamber for storm water collection between the inlet and the outlet. The filtering system comprises a plate for dividing the basin into a first chamber for receiving storm water and a second chamber for passing storm water out of the basin and a filter assembly mounted within a hole formed in the plate, the filter assembly including a filter media having a predetermined effective flow rate for removing pollutants from the storm water. The system further includes at least one overflow tube coupled to the plate at another hole formed therein for passing storm water through the plate and bypassing the filter assembly. The overflow tube has a storm water inlet at a height above the filter media so as to limit the maximum water pressure applied to the filter media. The overflow tube also includes a diverter lid mounted to a top of the overflow tube.

  • Patent number: 4287514
    Abstract: A signaling device for being coupled to a mailbox of the type having a cantelievered tongue section defined below the mailbox door hinge. A snap-type single pole single throw (SPST) push on push off action switch is coupled to the base of the mailbox adjacent to the tongue section of the door for generating a first signal responsive to the operative communication between the tongue section of the door as the door is opened. An electrical circuit is coupled to the switch for generating a sensory perceptible signal responsive to receiving the first signal from the switch. The switch is mounted on a generally U-shaped bracket which may be deformable as the switch is being actuated, thereby reducing the possiblity of damage to the switch as the door is opened.
