  • Patent number: 7897194
    Abstract: A composition of cold pressed botanic oils exhibiting antioxidant activity. The composition is a combination of at least two oils, which can be black cumin oil, black raspberry oil, red raspberry oil, pomegranate oil, pumpkin oil, or sesame, flax, chardonnay grape seed oil or any other fruit, herb, vegetable, grain or nut oil. The composition exhibits total antioxidant activity greater than the sum of the weighted average of the antioxidant activities of the individual oils. A method of producing a composition of botanic oils exhibiting antioxidant activity, comprising extracting oil in an oxygen deprived environment from fruits and vegetables and combining the extracted oils. The composition exhibits total antioxidant activity greater than the sum of the weighted average of the antioxidant activities of the individual oils.

  • Patent number: 6530583
    Abstract: A convertible apparatus for transporting and supporting a work tool at a work site. The apparatus includes a support frame extending along a longitudinal axis between a first end and a second end. A base member extends from the support frame in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the support frame and stabilizes the support frame in its vertical, working position. A removable handle is attachable to the support frame for use in transporting the apparatus, the handle is also positionable on the base member and supports the work platform when the work platform is in its extended position. A primary wheel assembly is mounted to the support frame opposite the base member such that the primary wheel assembly and the base member stabilize the support frame in its vertical, working position.
