Abstract: A boiling pot over flow prevention apparatus is disclosed comprised of a flexible, directional nozzle focussing a direct stream of cool air directly downward into a boiling pot. A stabilized a base is provided to contain a fan unit, and has inlet vent structures. The fan unit is battery operated and is activated to draw cool air into the inlet vent structures and out through the flexible, directional nozzle and through a focusing aperture. When placed next to a boiling pot the flexible, directional nozzle can be conformed to direct an airflow downward into the pot. By activating the fan unit a smooth steady stream of cool air can be drawn in and directed into the pot. This air flow operates both to disburse the foam that is generated as well as to stabilizing and maintaining the heat flux through and out from the top of the boiling pot.

Abstract: A portable cassette tape illuminator is disclosed having a small light which is meant to be attached to items used in the dark such as a cassette tape player. The portable cassette tape illuminator consists of a small light bulb, small battery, electronic circuitry, two thin wires and a "touch" on/off switch. To utilize it in a cassette tape player, place the bulb end into the left side of the cassette tap receptacle and string the wires up to the player control buttons where it may be looped. When light is needed to change a tape, touch the on/off switch. The portable cassette tape illuminator also provides light for intricate areas of the tape player for cleaning.

Abstract: A rain gutter downspout noise attenuation apparatus is provided formed by a section of downspout made of sheet metal, or other suitable material, lined with artificial grass and a fastening screw or clip. The sheet metal, shaped in the form of a 160 degree angle, is designed as such that it easily fits into the base of the downspout, with the curve segment situating in the curve of the elbow.

Abstract: An externally mounted vehicle speedometer display is disclosed comprising an external speedometer intended to be installed on the outer rear segment of a motor vehicle. Housing a green digital speedometer, a magnifying lens is provided to increase visibility to surrounding drivers. Designed to be wired to either new or existing vehicles, a memory chip is provided for storing and retaining speed history information for the vehicle over a limited time period, in order to provide speed information in case of an accident.

Abstract: A gum dispenser includes a substantially rectangular, box shaped container having a platform therein. The platform is disposed substantially parallel to a first wall and a second wall of the container. When sticks of gum are positioned between the platform and the second wall of the container, a spring urges the platform against the sticks of gum, and a leading stick of gum is urged against the second wall of the container. The second wall of the container includes a track, with an operator slidably engaged therein. When a user slides the operator toward a slot in the lid of the dispenser, a seat of the operator engages a short edge of the leading stick of gum and pushes the gum partially through the slot, thereby dispensing the gum. The container further includes a base with a notch therein for limiting movement of the operator in a direction away from the lid, so that the operator remains engaged within the track.

A dowel is disposed within each of the outer leg apertures and each of the side piece apertures. Each of the inner legs has an inner leg top width edge opposite and parallel to an inner leg bottom width edge, and an inner leg bevel perpendicular to the inner leg top width edge.

Abstract: Fresnel lenses are incorporated into bear's paws of a child's toy teddy bear. The Fresnel lenses cover infrared detectors, and gather infrared energy and focus it onto the infrared sensors. The signal generated by the infrared sensors is passed to a detector timer assembly and then to a power control device. The detector assembly consists of a low-pass filter, a level comparator, a variable time-on timer, and a daylight override circuit. The power control device provides power to an outlet.
