  • Patent number: 8826902
    Abstract: The present invention includes an article and method for transferring an image from one substrate to another. The method includes providing or obtaining an image transfer sheet that is comprised of a substrate layer, a release layer and an image-imparting layer that may comprise a low density polyethylene or other polymeric component having a melting temperature within a range of about 90 degrees C. to about 700 degrees C. An image is imparted to the low density polyethylene area with an image-imparting medium. A second image-receiving substrate can be provided. The second image-receiving substrate is contacted to the first image transfer sheet at the polymer, image-imparting layer. Heat is applied to the image transfer sheet so that the low density polyethylene encapsulates the image-imparting medium and transfers the encapsulates to the image-receiving substrate, thereby forming a mirror image on the image-receiving substrate.

  • Patent number: 5417200
    Abstract: A lantern hood can be inverted from an upright, light reflecting position in which it permits the lantern to be used as a lighting device to an inverted position in which it is usable as a support for cooking utensils and permits the lantern to be used as a stove. The hood includes a lid having apertures formed therethrough which can be opened when the hood is used as a cooker and closed when the hood is used as a reflector. The hood also preferably includes a cooking cylinder shaped so as to support standard sized camping utensils when the hood is inverted, and springs for pulling the globe of the lantern into contact with the inverted hood to channel the heat from the lantern through the cooking cylinder, thereby enhancing the hood's operation as a cooker.
