Abstract: A nail clipper retaining device is disclosed for retaining nail clippings within a typical nail clipper. The device utilizes as a fastening system, a universal slotted mounting located at the bottom of the u-shape channel. The slotted mounting catch slides into position between the head of the lever arm pivot pin and the lower stationary spring member of the typical nail clipper. The force between the head of the lever arm pivot pin and lower stationary spring member of the initially loaded compressive cutting mechanism of the typical nail clipper secures the retaining device to the lower spring member. The device can be easily and effortlessly mounted and dismounted for the purpose of evacuating accumulated nail clippings, cleaning and sterilization.
Abstract: A warning device adapted to be laid flat upon a road way produces an audible warning sound when contacted by the wheels of a moving vehicle. The device is comprised of a mat of flexible resilient material having an elongated configuration, and a series of semi-rigid apertured raised longitudinal bumps each with a plurality of segments therein forming a segmented metal bar contained therein and extending throughout the length of each bump. The bumps are spaced a few inches at most over a distance of two to three feet which allows resonant sound from the vibration of the bars and frictional interaction of short segments making up the bars to be transmitted to an overpassing vehicle traveling at high speeds. In addition, the segmented bars reinforce and extend the life of the mat.
Abstract: An adjustable paper collection device constructed with an inward guiding panel and outward guiding panel facilitating the automatic folding of continuous feed printer paper during the discharge thereof for purposes of stacking. The paper collection device may be formed with or separately from a discharge area of a conventional printer and disposed immediately therebeneath. The inward guiding panel being positioned to intercept continuous feed paper from the printer and urge the continuous feed paper in a downward and inward direction; the outward guiding panel positioned to receive the continuous feed paper from the inward guiding panel and urge the continuous feed paper in an inward and downward direction relative to the printer. In this manner, the printer paper will automatically fold as the paper deposits in the basket.
