  • Patent number: 5392801
    Abstract: A self righting walking cane device which comprises a lightweight hand grip handle, a lightweight shaft device and a bottom weighted base device to facilitate the righting action of the cane device. The base device includes a plurality of frame devices and faceted shell sections which are attached about the bottom portion of the shaft device. The frame devices or shell have a unique configuration which together with the weight device positioned about the bottom portion of shaft device which together with unique shaft configuration provide a unique self righting walking cane. This combination of elements produces a cane whose center of gravity is below the center of rotation of the righting surface causing the cane to remain vertically stable and if disturbed from its vertical position to return to it. The construction of the cane device also allows it to stand by itself without the need of support.

  • Patent number: 5335786
    Abstract: The invention comprises a method and apparatus for separating and recycling plastics from plastic parts containing, for example, light metal, rubber, non-ferrous metals and labels of any type attached. The plastic parts are also reduced to selected sizes. The method and apparatus basically includes shredding the plastic parts so as to reduce the plastic parts into a first reduced size of plastic pieces; moving the shredded plastic pieces to subject them to a magnetic device so that light metal material is removed from the shredded plastic pieces; subjecting the plastic pieces to a grinder device to reduce the plastic pieces to smaller pieces; subjecting the smaller plastic pieces to a sufficient high pressure steam to remove contaminate materials from the plastic pieces; and drying the plastic pieces and contaminate materials and separating the plastic pieces from the contaminate materials.

  • Patent number: 5328212
    Abstract: A roof mount for supporting a vertically disposed tubular member on an inclined roof of a building in which the tubular member extends through an opening in the roof. The mounting is disposable on the exterior of the roof wholly from within the building. The mount includes an upper flashing having a peripheral flange with dimensions that are larger than the opening so the upper flashing covers completely the opening. The upper flashing can be slipped through the opening from the inside of the building and fitted on the outside of the roof. A tubular member receiving aperture is disposed within the upper flashing and is arranged to receive the tubular member. Gasketing is provided to seal any spaces between the aperture and the exterior of the tubular member. A lower flange having a central opening to receive the tubular member is disposed within the building and to engage the interior of the roof.
