Abstract: The fixture for holding threaded workpieces is a right angle fixture. It has two integrally formed webs which have exterior planar surfaces at a right angle with respect to each other. There are holes through each of the webs. The holes are of selected diameters and each has therein threads of selected pitch. Securing of the fixture and placing a threaded fastener through its corresponding hole permits operations to be accomplished on the fastener.

Abstract: Beach towel has envelopes attached thereto so as to create closeable envelopes on the towel and pockets behind the envelope. The envelopes and/or pockets can be used for storing needed items such as sunscreen lotion, clothing items, or entertainment items such as a book or radio. The envelopes and/or pockets can alternatively be used as a receptacle for sand in order to hold down the beach towel and form a pillow.

Abstract: An illuminated collar for improving night time visibility of a pet comprising a hollow flexible light-permeable tube having first and second ends and a plurality of lights mounted within the tube. A housing is mounted on the first tube end and contains a circuit for operating the lights and a battery for providing power for the circuit and the lights. A plurality of catch pins project from the housing. A buckle includes a ring mounted on the second tube end, a connector projecting from the ring, and a plurality of buckle holes in the connector so that the catch pins and buckle holes are selectively engageable and disengageable for connecting and disconnecting the first and second ends with respect to each other.

Abstract: A sun visor system allows light incoming to a vehicle interior to be deflected and obstructed by a lightweight and easily manipulable flat shield. The flat shield is removably attachable to several interior supports including: the main visors of the vehicle, the dashboard, and upper surfaces. Removable attachments include magnets on metal and hook-and-loop fasteners. V-shaped bendable plates are included in the system to provide connective support for a flat shield when, without the V-shaped bendable plate, such connective support would be absent.

Abstract: A magnetic sun visor attachment apparatus for a motor vehicle comprises three different magnetic attachment devices and at least one magnetically attractable bent metal shield for magnetic attachment onto the devices. The three attachment devices are, first, at least one U-shaped magnet-bearing clamp which is movably and removably clamped onto the conventional main sun visor, second, at least one magnet-bearing flat support which is affixed, as by pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, onto the side window frame or similar upper interior surface of a vehicle and, third, at least one magnet-bearing V-shaped bent plate which is affixed, as by a hook and pile fastener, onto the dashboard. The bent metal shield serves as a sun visor, i.e., to block the sun's rays whether the sun's rays are seen directly or by reflection, and is movable with respect to the magnets so as to provide wide ranges of blocking areas.

Abstract: Cutting shaped holes is accomplished by the device by including a foot plate on the part to be cut and a cutting tool which is driven around the foot plate in accordance with the hole shape selected. A template determines size and shape of the hole, and a cutting tool movable on a rotating arm follows the template. The template also controls the position of the cutting tool with respect to the direction of cut so that efficient cutting is achieved.

Abstract: The steering wheel lock protector has a two-piece housing which wraps around the ignition-steering wheel lock in the steering column of a modern automobile. The automobile lock is completely enclosed except that access is provided through a rotatable key-slotted disc to the ignition-steering wheel lock. The two-piece housing is engaged and disengaged from its steering wheel housing wraparound position by means of two axially aligned lock pins which are lock-actuated to engage in lock pin bosses.

Abstract: Handle is formed with the metal portion of a dental prosthesis so that the handle can be used for supporting and handling the metal structure from the mold to the final finishing, when the handle is cut off. The handle preferably has both a ring for supporting the structure on a post and a ball for grasping of the metal structure.

Abstract: In grilling foods, a grate is placed over the heat source. Foods are placed on the grate for cooking. The grill grate cover of this invention comprises disposable, heat-proof tubes which removably slip onto the grate bars. After use, they are removed, thrown away, and replaced.

Abstract: The demountable frame apparatus has front and back support rails thereon. A plurality of laundry bags each has an open top, closed bottom and continuous sidewalls. The sidewalls have support loops adjacent the open mouth. Two rods support each laundry bag, with a rod going through each support loop. The rods engage upon the support rails and are slidable along the length of the support rails to permit spacing of the plurality of laundry bags, and permit the rods to be moved along the length of the support rails for opening and closing the mouths of the laundry bag and the direct juxtapositioning of the open mouths for ease of laundry sorting. Each of the laundry bags has a carrying handle adjacent its mouth and an emptying handle adjacent its bottom. The rods preferably engage on the support rails in such a way as to prevent the rods from falling off of the support rails by canting of the rods. The frame preferably has a hinged lid and is preferably demountable for compact storage.
