  • Patent number: 5379686
    Abstract: A rotisserie apparatus for rotating and roasting articles of food comprising a support assembly, a skewer assembly, a rotatable assembly and a drive assembly. The drive assembly turning a plurality of rotatable assemblies which are in turn removably mounted to skewer assemblies. The skewer assemblies hold food stuffs, which a user desires to roast, over a heat source. Because each skewer is independently and removably mounted to its own rotatable assembly, the entire device does not have to be stopped to remove a single skewer assembly. The support assembly, in conjunction with the rotatable assembly, cooperatively suspends the skewer assemblies over the heat source contained therein.

  • Patent number: 5357721
    Abstract: An adjustable beam holder to be used with parallel spaced apart forming boards. The holder includes an elongated case with a longitudinal and centrally disposed slot that receives an elongated removably mounted connector member with an elongated protruding platform member on one side and the opposite side having perpendicularly mounted walls that are removably attached to the slot. Headed threaded shank members are inserted inside the case through openings defined by removable tabs formed on removable cap members mounted to the ends of the case. Readily detachable arms are mounted to the connector mounted to the case member in order to rest over the edges of forming wall and thereby aligning the upper wall flush with the plane defined by the upper edges.

  • Patent number: 5359038
    Abstract: A method for isolating the immunoglobulin compounds in the feces of animals and humans including the steps of placing said feces in a container with a buffer solution, homogenizing the feces in a phosphate buffer saline solution thereby forming a homogenized solution, separating the solids from the homogenized solution leaving a clear solution and chemically precipitating substantially all material contained in the clear solution with the exception of the immunoglobulin compounds through the use of protamine. The method produces a sufficient amount of immunoglobulin compounds for diagnostic and treatment purposes, if necessary. In particular, the production of IgAs has been quite useful for these purposes.

  • Patent number: 5349995
    Abstract: A device for collecting oil contained in plastic containers that are placed inside a housing that includes a puncturing assembly mounted to a slanted platform. The platform has a central opening through which the discharged oil passes. A flexible conduit is connected to the outlet in the housing at one end and the other end of the flexible conduit is connected to a storage tank with sufficient capacity to store a substantial amount of oil. A hingedly mounted cover in said housing helps in the urging and pressing of the plastic container against the puncturing assembly. The puncturing assembly includes a separator to ensure the faster rate of unit flow of the oil from the container.

  • Patent number: 5343668
    Abstract: An anchorage device for supporting flat cover members for openings in building structures. The device includes two substantially similar stepped-plate members that include each an anchorage section and a supporting section. One of the stepped-plate members may in fact be flat or substantially flat, depending on the termination of the building openings to be protected. The anchorage section includes an opening and a cooperating fastening assembly for readily and removably mounting the device to the building structure with minimal aesthetic detraction or structural alteration. These sections define a plane each and these planes are kept in a spaced apart and parallel relationship with respect to each other by a step wall member. The supporting sections then are kept separate for their respective plates and the separation is sufficient to cooperatively receive the flat cover members that are used to protect the openings.

  • Patent number: 5335470
    Abstract: An adjustable beam holder to be used with parallel spaced apart forming boards. The holder includes a case with a longitudinal slot that receives a headed threaded shank members and the other end of the shank is inserted through holes in the flanges of a clamp having a U-Shaped bracket. The bracket embraces one of the beams of a truss member urging same toward the case that is anchored in concrete. Readily detachable arms are mounted to the upper wall of the case member in order to rest over the edges of forming wall and thereby aligning the upper wall flush with the plane defined by the upper edges.

  • Patent number: 5308037
    Abstract: A base for air handlers for air conditioning systems to support them at a spaced apart relationship from the floor to permit air in. The handler has two supporting assemblies that are separate, parallel to each other and being connected by horizontally disposed extending members that telescopically adjust that separation to cooperate with the dimensions of the air handler. The supporting assemblies include pivotally mounted L-shaped members that have a horizontally disposed arm and a perpendicularly and vertically disposed leg. L-shaped members can be swung to align the arms with the plane define by the supporting assemblies, thereby providing a volumetrically efficient base when in storage.

  • Patent number: 5287579
    Abstract: A ramp for loading a pick-up truck that is collapsable so that it can be transported and stored in a minimum space. The ramp is removably mounted to the rear tail gate of a pick up truck. The ramp includes three contiguously hingedly connected rectangular flat members that open or distend with their planes at predetermined angles with respect to each other. This is accomplished by sharing the load placed on said flat members between the shear on the hinge assemblies and the angled abutting edges compression load. The shaft of one of the hinge assemblies extends and a handle member is mounted thereon for prompt manipulation of the ramp.

  • Patent number: 5271623
    Abstract: A game for building words and form concepts form the selection and arrangement of symbols within a given topic. A card with longitudinal slots is adapted to receive one topic chip per slot and one or more symbols that form a word related to each one of those topics. The symbols chips are pre-organized through the use of unique relief patters that are accepted in position with complementary relief patterns in a carrier for these symbol chips. As the players build their words they are called to defend them as being relevant to the topic categories where they were built.
