Abstract: A tool and method for seating an orthodontic aligner, unseating the aligner, or both. In one aspect, the tool comprises a handle portion and seating portion. The seating portion is connected to the handle portion. The seating portion comprises a rippled structure having the shape of a series of waves, the waves having a direction of propagation directed away from the handle portion. In a second aspect, a handle portion of the tool comprises a hook adjacent to a recess in the handle portion, the hook being configured to unseat an aligner. In a third aspect, the method comprises seating an aligner by holding a handle portion of the tool, positioning the seating portion between sets of teeth and repeatedly biting the seating portion. In a fourth aspect, the method comprises unseating an aligner by holding the rippled seating portion and using the hook to apply force to the aligner.

Abstract: A warming unit includes a body and a heating unit, to work in communication with an eyelash curler to impart a transference of thermal energy to the eyelash curler for the purpose of transferring some of the thermal energy to an eyelash to assist in curling the eyelash. The body has a channel. The channel extends between sides of the body and passes there through. The heating unit is in communication with the body. The heating unit has a heat plate configured to receive electrical energy. The heating unit being partially within the channel. A tang may be included and extend away from the body to form a gap between itself and the heating unit. The eyelash curler is compress therebetween within the gap so as to locate the pad of the eyelash curler against a portion of the heating unit.

Abstract: A spool apparatus is described to include in one particular example a cable spool with a first cylindrical lip and a second cylindrical lip on an opposite side of the cable spool. A center of the spool includes a clutch bearing in the center of both the first cylindrical lip and the second cylindrical lip that provides a rotational axis for the cable spool to rotate around. The apparatus may also include a feed slot near the first cylindrical lip that provides a passage for cable to pass from the second cylindrical lip to the first cylindrical lip.

Abstract: A tagging system for carpet or flooring samples has a lower gripping arm, an upper gripping arm, and a connecting arm connecting the lower gripping arm and the upper gripping arm. The lower gripping arm and the lower gripping arm are spaced apart by the connecting arm a distance to provide a snug fit with a typical flooring samples. Disposed on the upper gripping arm is a removeable label window connector, for connecting a transparent label window holder to the upper gripping arm. The label window connector has a plurality of notches about its substantially circular rim for connecting with the label window holder. In another embodiment, the label window connector connects the gripping arms, allowing for mounting the tagger perpendicular to the flooring sample. In another embodiment, the tagger has a body plate receiving a transparent label window, and an arcuate lip for receiving a color-coded marker.

Abstract: A filter for use with overhead sprinkler irrigation systems is disclosed. The filter includes a body, a removable screen, and a manually-actuated plunger adjacent the screen. A water hammer table is partitioned in the body and located above the plunger. The plunger is positioned for reciprocal movement through a debris outlet between an open, debris-discharging position, and a closed filtering position. The plunger defaults to the closed filtering position by pressurized water flowing through the body. The water is simultaneously filtered through the screen and passes out a clean water outlet while debris accumulates within the body. The plunger may be manually retracted to the open, debris-discharging position at any time, whereby accumulated debris is flushed out of the body through the debris outlet by residual water flowing therethrough.
