Abstract: A dispenser for flowable materials, such as toothpaste, includes a hollow barrel in the form of a tube open at its lower end and closed at its upper end with the flowable material being inserted in the tube. A plunger which is also in the form of a hollow tube having a closed upper end, is telescopically arranged in the barrel. A seal is effected by a hinged peripheral rim on the outer surface of the piston near its upper end. The flow of the material forces the peripheral rim to pivot into sealing contact with the inner surface of the barrel.

Abstract: A device for simulating climbing includes a pair of side frames each of which has a pair of upper legs into which a pair of lower legs are telescoped. A horizontal platform is connected to the upper legs whereby the effective height of the platform may be adjusted by the degree of telescoping of the lower legs into the upper legs.

Abstract: A portable, foldable, adjustable, aerobic exercise bench/step/mat comprises a plurality of individual panels secured by flexible hinges to each other so that the panels can be arranged in various orientations with respect to each other. For example, if all of the panels are placed side by side the result is a mat which could be used for aerobic exercise. When, however, one or more panels are folded on top of each other then the overall height is increased so that the stacked panels can then be used as a bench or step in an aerobic exercise such as the stepping up and stepping down from the stacked panels.

Abstract: A travel case for a tooth brush having a various shaped cases, rigidly attached to the case is a brush handle clip, the brush handle clip consisting of two opposing semi-rigid jaws with the entry side of each jaw rounded creating a narrow catch which opens to an open cavity, a bumper affixed to the case such that the bumper keeps the tooth brush from contacting the case in two directions, one surface of the bumper has a concave shape and the bumper is aligned with the centerline of the two jaws of the clip.

Abstract: A wrist exercise device includes a hollow shaft which houses a pair of compression springs. Tension disks are provided at the remote ends of the springs. The disks are moved toward and away from each other by turning a tension knob at one end of the device to increase or decrease the resistance from a pair of friction pads on each side of a handle at each end of the device. A resistance indicator is provided at one end of the device.

Abstract: A combination sit-up, rowing, arm, leg and foot exercise device which includes a center pole, seat with rocker legs and telescoping legs, caster/wheel assembly, stationary or movable foot cross pole, foot treadles, seat cross pole and seat back support. Springs or other resistance devices are connected to the device at various locations to create resistance.

Abstract: An exercising bench includes a horizontal platform mounted on a plurality of support units which engage racks suspended from the platform for adjusting the elevation of the platform. The support units each have a pair of inner legs and a pair of outer legs pivotally connected together. The outer legs are pivotally and fixedly connected to the platform and the inner legs have a bridging member connected therebetween which engages the suspended racks to permit height and angular orientation adjustment of the platform relative to the ground.

Abstract: A device for simulating climbing includes a support structure having a platform detachably secured thereto. A spacer is insertable between the support structure and the platform and in accordance with the position of the spacer the effective height of the platform may be adjusted. The spacer has different horizontal and vertical dimensions which provide height adjustability of the platform depending upon the orientation of the spacer.

Abstract: A computer security device includes a compartmentalized housing. One compartment is for storing floppy disks. Another compartment stores pressure switches associated with various computer components for sounding an alarm if an unauthorized person attempts to move the components. A further compartment stores certain of the components during periods of non-use. A still further compartment stores the electronics for various alarms to indicate tampering, fire, etc.

Abstract: This invention discloses a storage system for personal care products used for dental hygiene and oral care. The device has a storage tube with an interior and exterior surface and two ends, one end closed and used as the base and the other end open. A toothbrush ring with outer and inner rims is mounted on the open end of the storage tube, the outer rim of toothbrush ring extends beyond the exterior surface of the storage tube and contains a plurality of apertures in which toothbrushes hang and the inner rim extends inside the interior surface of the storage tube. Inserted in the storage tube is a rinse cup with an exterior flange on the open end which catches the interior rim of the toothbrush ring. The rinse cup lid rests on the inner rim of the toothbrush ring covering the exterior flange of the rinse cup. Alternatively, the rinse cup lid is removably connected to the exterior rim of the toothbrush ring. An optional wall bracket can be used to mount the storage system on the wall.

Abstract: A dispenser for two distinct fluids includes a container having a chamber for each of the fluids. The fluid chambers communicate with a mixing chamber at the top of the container leading to a dispensing spout. Mixing ports in the wall of the mixing chamber permit the fluids to mix before being dispensed from the container.

Abstract: A wrist exercise device includes a hollow shaft having a turning disk rotatably mounted at one end thereof. Resistance is provided to oppose the rotation of the turning disk. A turning knob is secured at the opposite end of the shaft for setting the amount of the resistance. Detachable weights are mounted on the device so that the device also functions as a dumbbell.

Abstract: A dispenser for flowable materials such as toothpaste includes a hollow barrel in the form of a cylinder open at its lower end and closed at its upper end with the flowable material being inserted in the cylinder. A plunger, which is also in the form of a hollow cylinder open at its lower end and closed at its upper end is telescopically arranged in the cylinder so that upon telescopic movement of the plunger in the barrel, flowable material is dispensed from a spout at the upper portion of the barrel.

Abstract: An adjustable utility bench includes an elongated planar support platform. A mounting unit is secured to each end of the platform and includes a pair of legs hingedly mounted to the platform. The legs are interconnected by a brace so as to be jointly movable from its perpendicular position during use to its folded parallel position during storage. An extension is adjustably secured to each leg to vary the height of the platform.
