Abstract: A receiver-less hitch system has protrusion for hanging onto a vehicles brush guard and can pivot down to the vehicles winch. A hook is provided on the hitch system for connection to the end of the winch line and when retracted, tension on the winch line secures the hitch system to the vehicle. This quick and easy procedure provides a readily available front hitch system without the aid of a receiver or other mounting apparatus.

Abstract: A detection and alert system for use with plows and implements is a system generally referring to off-road vehicles such as ATV's and UTV's and comprising a plow system with a detection device in communication with an alert device. A lifting device, such as a winch, is mounted on the front portion of an ATV or UTV for the purpose of raising and lowering the plow blade. When the operator of the ATV raises the plow, a detection device attached to the plow system alerts the operator via alert device, attached to the front portion of the ATV, the gap or distance remaining between the plow system and the ATV or component thereof.

Abstract: Pickup Camper Loading Guides is a right side and left side alignment device designed to allow a driver to quickly and easily pre-position a pickup truck for loading a camper. The invention consisting of two thin guide rails that are manually extracted from within a case or cavity that defines and runs the length of a camper's lower right side and left side.

Abstract: The Personal Filling device is an attachment designed for use with bottled water and point-of-use purification dispensers. The device provides a convenient angle to aid in the filling process of sport bottles and personal containers. The device provides a barrier to avoid contact with the existing spigot or nozzle of the dispenser. The device can be quickly pushed onto and removed from a spigot or nozzle, and then remain in the possession of a single individual for personal use. The device may reduce the possibility of contracting infectious diseases, such as colds and flu, which could be present on the communicable spigots or nozzles of drinking water dispensers.

Abstract: The reconfigurable self-supporting hose allows the user to select the position of the sprayer, as well as the direction of the water spray from the sprayer, or shower head. The position of the shower head and the direction of spray from the shower head can be adjusted to remain in the desired position until modified by the user. A self-supporting arm structure is selectively configurable along at least portions of its length to temporary fixed positions, the structure having a first end and a second end, and having a fluid transport path for transporting fluid from the first end to the second end. The first end of the arm structure is connected to the liquid source in fluid communication with the fluid transport path. The second end of the arm structure can be connected to a sprayer. The self-supporting outer structure can include a plurality of interconnected bead members each moveable with respect to adjacent bead members.
