Abstract: A sprinkler apparatus has a nozzle of a cross-sectional configuration to provide a liquid jet of similar cross-sectional configuration which impacts a reflector surface to reflect a spray of a cross-sectional configuration similar to that of an area to be sprayed. The nozzle passage and reflector surface may preferably be defined on a unitary nozzle device mounted on a base.
Abstract: A vehicle hardtop carrier has a rear wheels bar transversely of a mounting bar, and front wheels on separate wheel bars support the hardtop and are adjustably pivotally mounted on the mounting bar to accommodate various hardtops. A cushion bar extends generally upwardly from the mounting bar to support the hardtop. A retaining strap extends from the carrier and about the hardtop.
Abstract: A collapsible container has two loops, a flexible wall web attached about and extending between the loops, and a bottom web. The loops are twistable into compact, layered array into collapsed and much smaller configuration for transport.
Abstract: Shield pads are removably attachable to a vehicle side and doors to protect against dents and scratches, as by impacts by doors of adjacent vehicles. The shield pads are preferably detachably mounted by one or more suction cups on each pad. Spaced-apart straps extend between the shield pads. An elastic strap extends from one shield pad and is detachably attached when the shield pads are rolled up together. Ease of handling, maneuvering, rolling up and storage of the shield pads, are provided.
Abstract: A signal device is attachable to a medication container to provide periodic signals of times for a user to take medication. The device has its electronic circuitry enclosed in a casing compressible by the user to activate the circuitry.
Abstract: Construction assemblies or modules comprising headers, wall sections and beams, are formed of end-to-end arrays of plastic foam blocks and steel studs extending above and below the foam blocks, with flanges thereof extending into the blocks. Steel studs are disposed between each pair of adjacent blocks with flanges thereof extending may be utilized for strength and durable surfaces.
Abstract: A sheet gripping assembly comprises an elongate member having a side defining inwardly extending wall portions defining confronting channels, and a gripping member of generally zigzag configuration manually manipulable to engage into said confronting channels to secure sheet material between the elongate members and the gripping member. The elongate member may have an elongated slot for positioning therealong a threaded fastener to secure the elongate member to a second structural member.
Abstract: A glow throw loop has a closed, preferably spring-like loop with a flexible web mounted on and extending across the loop. A glow ring with glow material therein is attached to and coextensive with the loop.
Abstract: A saddle assembly is secured about a liquid conduit by its contoured base portion and a half clamp and threaded fasteners. A pipe or nipple is received in a gasketed bell-end outlet and is retained against separation by respective components and devices.
Abstract: A composition for the removal of grease and oil spots from concrete, asphalt surfaces, etc., comprises a degreaser and a diatomaceous earth. The degreaser comprises a number of ingredients of respective percentage ranges to emulsify the grease or oil which is then absorbed by the diatomaceous earth.
