Abstract: A corner bracket may include a structural portion including at least one relatively rigid first material, and a sealing portion including at least one relatively elastic second material. The corner bracket may also include a first receiver including a first retainer portion configured to be coupled to an end of a first frame member, and a first sealing interface configured to provide a substantially fluid-resistant seal between a portion of the end of the first frame member and the first receiver. The corner bracket may also include a second receiver transverse to the first receiver and including a second retainer portion configured to be coupled to an end of a second frame member, and a second sealing interface configured to provide a substantially fluid-resistant seal between a portion of the end of the second frame member and the second receiver. The corner bracket may be incorporated into a cabinet frame.

Abstract: A wet wipe dispenser is provided that includes a support having an open area adapted to be juxtaposed with the cover portion of a container of wet wipes in an inverted orientation, and a base portion supporting the support above a surface on which the base portion is placed. In one embodiment the wet wipes dispenser includes a lower support and an upper support connected by means of a hinge. A wipes package is inserted between the upper and lower supports in juxtaposition with a slot within the lower support. The package has an inverted orientation within the slot such that wipes are downwardly dispensed, which allows for removal, and preferably also heating of the wipes, without a high rate of moisture loss occurring from the package. The downward force of the upper support can compress the package as wipes are sequentially dispensed.

Abstract: A dispenser for consumer product packaging is disclosed, the dispenser including a removable region of the packaging creating a product opening upon removal, a reinforcement surface overlaying the removable region, a disposable adhesive label for initially opening the package by removal of the removable region of the packaging and reinforcement surface, and a durable enclosure, the durable enclosure bonded to the product packaging and resealable to allow access and preservation of a consumer product such as interleaved tissues in the packaging after initial opening.

Abstract: A temperature sensing system for sensing ambient temperature around a vehicle. The sensing system includes a temperature sensor, such as a thermistor or thermocouple, positioned within the antenna finial of a fixed-mast antenna of the vehicle. A sensor signal from the sensor is applied to a sensor circuit that includes suitable filtering components. The filtered sensor signal is then applied to a microcontroller where the signal is processed to display the exterior temperature on display within the vehicle passenger compartment. A sensor lead and a return lead are wrapped around the mast antenna to transfer the sensor signal from the sensor to the sensor circuit. The mast antenna is wrapped with a shrink-type tubing or covered with an epoxy-type coating to cover the sensor lead and return lead. The presence of the wires provides the added benefit of reducing wind noise traditionally associated with the antenna mast.

Abstract: A glass patch cellular antenna is provided which can be imprinted as a thin film element on the interior surface of an automobile window. The antenna is physically configured to serve as a coupling element for an optional antenna mast which can be mounted externally on the window opposite the antenna. As a thin film element, the antenna can be factory installed and prewired such that the automobile is cellular ready, in that the installation of an external mast is unnecessary to achieve suitable performance. Yet, an external mast can be readily coupled with the antenna in order to enhance the performance capability of the antenna.

Abstract: Combined oxygen mask and smoke goggle apparatus particularly adapted for use by members of flight crews is provided in which a valve having a shiftable actuating element and including means presenting a passage is mounted atop the face-piece of the oxygen mask for automatic opening of such valve whenever the mask and goggles are both in place on the face of a user, so that the mask will normally be sealed against the escape of oxygen introduced thereinto but oxygen will be automatically introduced into the goggles for flushing smoke or the like therefrom whenever the goggles are being utilized along with the mask.
