  • Patent number: 11098469
    Abstract: An adjustable spacer device for use in the space between a toilet and a wall and a method installing same is disclosed. The device includes a component module formed prior to installation within the wall space where it is then finally adjusted to fit within the wall space and to maintain a set separation distance between the toilet and the wall. The adjustable spacer device includes a cover that further stabilizes and secures the component module.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9517369
    Abstract: Methods and/or apparatuses having a conduit with at least one length of conductive metal wire therein along with a length of non-conductive wire therein. The length of non-conductive wire includes a heat-expandable firestop insulator material. Upon reaching a pre-defined temperature corresponding to that of a fire, the non-conductive wire expands to fill a length of the conduit. Alternatively, the firestop insulator material may be disposed in the void within the conduit that exists outside of the conductors. The expansion of the material prevents the spread of fire along the length of the conduit.
