Abstract: An electric sealer including a housing, a heating unit mounted in the housing, a frame having an opening extending over at least a portion of the heating unit and a heat resistant cover sheet extending over at least a portion of the opening in the frame.

Abstract: A steamer for a steamable hair curler includes thermally isolated cold and hot water reservoirs. Water in the hot water reservoir is heated by a PTC heater. The volumetric t capacity of the hot water reservoir is very small. The PTC heater has an intrinsic cutoff temperature high enough to boil water in the hot water reservoir and low enough to prevent deterioration of any component parts of the steamer, even in the absence of water in the hot water reservoir. Due to the thermal isolation of the reservoirs, water in the cold water reservoir is not substantially heated during normal operation of the steamer.

Abstract: The label generation apparatus enables the user to define a label of arbitrary size, shape and characteristics. Each label in a series of labels includes unique indicia that individually identify each label according to any predefined sequence. The label generation apparatus includes a template generation capability that enables the user to define the basic label format having one or more writable indicia fields. These one or more writable indicia fields can be used to provide each label with individual identifying indicia according to any predetermined sequence. The label generation apparatus also includes an indicia generation capability that produces the individual identification according to various characteristics that are specified by the user of this apparatus.

Abstract: A truck having means for supporting a plurality of tape cartridge holders and used for transferring a plurality of tape cartridges is provided with rotatable means for supporting the tape cartridges holders so that the tape cartridges in the tape cartridge holders are readily accessible to the operator even in relatively narrow aisles.

Abstract: Apparatus for supporting a drafting table, such as a digitizer, for vertical and pivotal movement thereof wherein a fixed hollow column is supported on a base member and a movable hollow column is mounted inside of the fixed hollow column for vertical up or down movement thereof and wherein the weight of the drafting table is counter-balanced by a constant spring mounted on the upper portion of the fixed hollow column and on the lower portion of the movable hollow column so that a portion of the constant spring is between the fixed and movable hollow columns and an elongated support member mounted on the upper portion of the movable hollow column and extending generally in a horizontal direction for supporting the drafting table and pivot means for pivotally connecting the drafting table to the elongated support member.
