Abstract: A drainage device for a plant pot or receptacle wherein said drainage device is set into the drainhole located at the center of the base of said plant pot, said drain device becoming integral with the pot, wherein the drainage device allows fluid to seep horizontally into the drainage device and, thereafter, drain out of pot thereby preventing fluid from accumulating within the pot. The device is comprised of a perforated cylinder with hemispherical top, a disc perpendicular and attached to the exterior of the cylinder, and an imperforate cylinder below the disc.

Abstract: The invention provides a multiple pants hanger for supporting a plurality of pairs of pants. The hanger includes a plurality of horizontally extending parallel bars each substantially wider than thick, means for securing the bars together in a spaced relationship so that at one end the bars are free and unconnected and so that slots are formed between each bar and an adjoining bar with the slot ends being open at the free ends of the bars. The inside adjoining faces of the bars on each side of one of the slots is essentially flat and lie in vertical planes so that the fabric of the legs of a pair of pants positioned in one of the slots is in frictional contact with the adjoining side faces of adjacent bars over substantially the full length and width thereof.

Abstract: A technique and system for facilitiating intraocular and other microsurgery comprising a lighter-irrigator tube which utilizes a central light guide to conduct light into the area of the surgery along the fluid infusion pathway. An auxiliary to the lighter-irrigator comprises a fiber optic work cord or light pipe characterized by light transmission and light dispersion along its path between a light source and the lighter-irrigator, and which may be utilized alone, or with other similar auxiliary cords, to provide low level lighting to the work areas, so that adequate work light is provided for the surgical assistants and aneasthesiologists, while maintaining maximum visualization for the surgeon.
