Abstract: A tent structure convertible from a hanging tent to a ground-based tent is herein described. The tent structure includes a top portion having slots, T-shaped connectors stitched into the base portion and resilient rods having ends arranged to be inserted into either the slots or the T-shaped members. For use as a hanging tent, the ends of the resilient rods are inserted into connectors on opposite sides of the tent such that the resilient rods extend across the base portion of the tent and the tent is then hung from support structure(s). As a result of this arrangement, the base of the tent is firmly supported by the resilient rods and the tent is supported above the ground. For use as a ground-based tent, the connectors are pivoted such that the connectors are adjacent to the sides of the tent and the resilient rods are inserted one end into a connector and a second end into a slot such that the resilient rods extend along the sides of the tent and support the top portion of the tent above the ground.

Abstract: A putting aid comprising two arms converging to an apex such that an acute angle is formed therebetween is herein described. The two arms have inner faces that include markings, such as a center stripe opposite the apex, that act to improve the visibility of the putting aid. Specifically, the putting aid is arranged to be positioned on a putting green such that the golf cup is between the two arms and the center stripe is approximately four inches behind the golf cup. The putting aid is then oriented such that the apex is opposite the direction of putting relative to the golf cup. The golfer then uses the center stripe as a target when aiming for the golf cup. As a result of this arrangement, the location of the golf cup is more visible and a golfer aiming for the center stripe will tend to putt harder, that is, so that the putt will travel approximately four inches further. The end result is a stronger and more accurate putt.

Abstract: This invention is a mounting system which provides impact protection for crop dividers or row dividers mounted on crop sprayers or harvesters and the like. A divider extends forwardly and downwardly and terminates with a ground engageable shoe. The ground engageable shoe rotates downwardly about a generally horizontal axis relative to the rest of the crop divider assembly. The ground engageable shoe is retained in operating position by gravity and a unique and simple link system. Upon engaging an obstruction the ground engageable shoe rotates downwardly about its axis of rotation thereby activating the link system which lifts the entire divider and ground engageable shoe clear of the obstruction.

Abstract: A header for crop harvesting machine includes a transport arrangement towing the header in a direction at right angles to its normal working direction. The transport system includes a first wheel at one end of the header which can be steered by a hitch pole connected to the first wheel. A second wheel is located symmetrically relative to the first wheel at the opposite end of the header and is free to caster. In the normal working position of the header the first and second wheels act as gauge wheels and are left in the direction of working movement. A third wheel which is removed in the working position is attached to the cutter bar by a clamping action over the knife guard and behind the knife support plate at a respective one of the forwardly extending support arms of the header frame.

Abstract: A squat rack is provided for supporting a bar of weights on a person's neck and shoulders during a squatting exercise. The squat rack includes a neck member arranged to rest on a base of a person's neck and a back member spaced below the neck member being arranged to rest across the person's back. A pair of shoulder members are connected between the neck and back members near respective ends of each of the members. Each shoulder member extends upwards past the neck member and curves forward following an arc arranged to rest on one of the shoulders to terminate at an end extending downwards. A pair of handles are mounted on the respective ends of the shoulder members. A pair of spacer members extend upwards from respective ends of the neck member for mounting a bar support member thereon. The bar support member extends laterally outwards past the respective ends of the neck member. A pair of clamps are mounted at respective ends of the bar support member for securing the bar of weights thereon.

Abstract: A contact lens applicator is used in inserting a contact lens into an eye. The applicator includes a stem with a finger mount on one end for mounting the applicator on a finger, and a contact lens retainer on the other end. In use the contact lens applicator is secured on the finger of the person adjacent the fingertip by the finger mount and a contact lens is placed on the contact lens retainer. The contact lens is oriented on the retainer transverse to and offset from the finger tip. The retainer holds the contact lens in place as the finger is moved into a substantially horizontal position with the contact lens positioned forward of the fingertip and oriented vertically. This allows the contact lens to be inserted into the eye easily and without tilting the head downwards. It enables a person to hold the top and bottom eyelids open using the fingers of both hands.
