Abstract: An interconnected heated patio stone and system are disclosed, the stone consisting of a durable, heat-transmitting upper layer, and an insulating lower layer, a heating cable running within the stone, and having two interconnections at the edge of the stone. The interconnection has a bracket to connect with the cable, a receptacle for joining electrically to a bridging connector, and an electrical linkage making an electrical connection available. Each stone is connected with another by a bridging connector, which contains an articulated wire, and has a basin and cap at each end for electrically joining, in a sealed manner, with the receptacle. The system consists of two or more stones interconnected using bridging connectors, the whole system also connected to a power source.

Abstract: A dolly for moving objects having a rectangular platform with casters mounted underneath, having four posts which may be raised from the base and locked into an upright position. The posts further have crossbars pivotally mounted thereon, which are releasably connectable to the crossbars of adjacent posts, to form a supportive railing around the tops of the posts. The posts may further be connected by means of telescopic arms, which are pivotally connected to one crossbar, and extendible to another crossbar, wherein they may be releasably connected by means of a knob at the end of the telescopic arm being pressed into an inverted teardrop-shaped receptacle.
