Abstract: A composite article includes a plurality of plies of composite material arranged atop one another in a stack and bonded together with a resin material, in which the stack includes a layer disposed on at least one outer surface of the stack, the layer bearing an image applied, prior to curing of the composite article, by a sublimation printing process. The layer preferably comprises a polyester material. The image preferably comprises a logo, identification information or any other representation of information or image depiction desired. The application of the image to the layer via sublimation printing results in the image having no height above said sheet.

Abstract: A board assembly for supporting memos and the like by the use of pins or other impaling implements includes a multi-layer substrate having at least a first supporting layer and a second layer on which an image is formed on a top surface thereof, the second layer being adapted to be mounted to the supporting layer, a frame for displaying the image carried by the top surface of the second layer of the substrate, and at least one other layer, exhibiting a second image different from the first image, adapted to be mounted atop the first layer of the substrate for selectively changing the image visible to a viewer. The second layer comprises woven or non-woven polyester material, and the image formed on the second layer is formed using a sublimation printing process.

Abstract: A cooking device suitable for barbequing food while indoors, used in conjunction with an external heat source. The cooking device comprises a water containing drip pan, a pin attached to a bottom of the drip pan and a multiblade fan rotational on the upper end of the pin. The fan rotates under the influence of convection currents generated when the external heat source is activated. A food substance placed in proximity to the upper surface of the fan is cooked by the heat generated by the external heat source, and air currents produced by the rotating fan force fumes and smoke due to the cooking of the food substance up and away from the drip pan.
