  • Patent number: 11866239
    Abstract: A child safety lid is provided and used to close the opening of content containers including rigid and flexible containers/bags. The cover requires a multiple step process in order to be removed and helps to prevent inadvertent or accidental openings of the container. The lid/cover can comprise a top member, a locking member, a bottom member and a seal member. The top member can be secured to the bottom member with the locking member captured therebetween and the seal member can extend downward from the bottom member and contact an internal shelf/ledge disposed within the container near the container opening. In one embodiment, the seal member and bottom member can be bonded to each other through an overmolding process. In one embodiment, the seal can be constructed from an elastomer material.

  • Publication number: 20230160255
    Abstract: A rain deflector apparatus provides a declined body surface to deflect water away from a sliding glass door (or similar structure) and a compliant base portion that can be sealably inserted into the sliding glass door's track (or similar structure) in order to prevent water and debris from collecting in the track and making its way under the door. In a preferred embodiment, the rain deflector apparatus is secured to the glass of the sliding glass door by way of one or more suction cups. The suction cups are selected such that their holding force to the glass is sufficient to keep the upper edge of the apparatus pressed up against the glass and the lower edge in sealed relation to the track or floor.

  • Patent number: 8469508
    Abstract: An eyeglass frame system, comprising an eyeglass securing front frame portion; a pair of temple-contacting side members, each member having a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end of each secured by a pivotal connection to a respective outermost portion of said front frame portion, said at least one of said side members having inner and outer vertical surfaces thereof, said pivotal connection effected at a first end of a male element of a bayonet clip, a second end thereof defining a plurality of projecting prongs. The system also includes female elements complemental to said male elements. Female elements are formed integrally with an inner surface at each proximal end of said temple-contacting side members. Said male and female members may be selectably engaged or disengaged from each other through the application of pressure on the male elements transversely to the axis of said temple-contacting members.
