  • Patent number: 5802657
    Abstract: A cleaning device for cleaning brooms that include a plurality of bristles mounted at the end of the broom's handle. The cleaning device includes a handle member that has a C-shape embracing member for removably mounting the cleaning device to the broom's handle. One end of the handle member includes a rake assembly with a plurality of rigid teeth mounted thereon. The teeth are sufficiently long to pass through the bristles and permit, when moved downwardly through them, removal of extraneous material entangled on the bristles.

  • Patent number: 5718011
    Abstract: A device for cleaning a baby by supporting him/her by a flat cushioned surface at a parallel relationship with respect to a supporting ground. A rectangular frame supports the cushioned surface. Two elongated members are hingedly mounted to one end of the frame that includes a bay inbetween the elongated members. Straps are slidably and adjustably mounted over the length of the frame and elongated members. The angular position of the elongated members with respect to the flat cushioned surface is adjustable to one of several predetermined positions.

  • Patent number: 5662224
    Abstract: An improvement for containers for medicaments that have to be ingested or applied periodically during the day or night and these containers include a neck connecting the body of a container. A ring with markings is snugly mounted to the neck so that it can be selectively positioned to make one of the markings coincide with one of two reference marking members. One of the two reference marking members is selectively covered with one pad member. The pad member is mounted to the reference marking assembly and it is foldable so that a user can selectively cover one of the reference marking members.

  • Patent number: 5157995
    Abstract: A tool having several coaxially disposed socket members housed within each other and corresponding to conventional sizes. The sockets are spring loaded, and each reduces its diameter towards the outer end that prevents the abutting sockets contained therein from falling off as a result of gravity or the spring force of the different spring members associated with each one of the sockets. The springs members urge these sockets outwardly, and the springs members of the sockets that are smaller than the head of the bolt or screw being matched are overcome and retracted, thereby the matching socket cooperatively engages with the head. Corresponding covers provide the necessary support area for the springs to exert their force against their corresponding socket members. An upper master socket assembly is removably mounted to the larger socket member, and it provides suitable engagement for a crank or lever to produce the necessary torque to rotate the socket members.
