Abstract: A door bottom weather sealing structure carried as a surface mounting at the inside bottom portion of a door comprising a channel member extending the width of a door having disposed therein an extensible and retractable sealing member, the sealing member having an outward projection thereof engaging the door jamb upon the closing of the door for an automatic extension of the sealing member into floor engagement and an automatic retraction of the sealing member upon the opening of the door, the structure providing a precise adjustment of the extension of the sealing member.

Abstract: A device to melt ice and snow on a roof structure to provide channels for the drainage of water, the device being an elongated, rigid structure having a hinged end portion to extend over a gutter, having means in connection with the other end portion thereof to removably support the same, the device being formed of a highly conductive material having heating cables in contact with the outer structure thereof for heat transference and having a plurality of apertures in the upper surface thereof, the device being particularly designed to be installed either upon a dry roof or upon a snow or ice covered roof.

Abstract: An auxiliary lock assembly for a door hung in a frame consisting of a plate member having a portion disposed between the door and the door frame and extending inwardly of the door, a plate holding member having a slot receiving the extended portion of the plate member and engaging the inner side of the door to secure the plate member thereto, an angled portion of the plate member overlying an outer side portion of the door and having a pair of laterally spaced horizontal elongated locking members extending outwardly thereform, one of the locking members being pivoted to permit the door to close into the door frame and a lock member receiving and securing the elongated locking members and the lock member having a shoulder engaging the door frame.

Abstract: This invention relates to an improvement in the ventilation of a greenhouse and it consists of an elongated tubular inflatable member mounted to underlie an air vent extending along the ridge portion of the greenhouse and a second vent consisting of an elongated opening in the side wall of the greenhouse, each of the vents having an inflatable tubular member carried adjacent thereto whereby the inflatable members in deflatable condition permit the circulation of outside air from the side vent through the ridge vent and an air pump having a line running to each of the inflatable members inflating the same to seal the vents.

Abstract: This invention relates to an electric battery charger for a storage battery such as an automotive battery in which the improvement consists of the visual display of such indicia that it informs the operator of the condition of charging present between the battery charger and the battery to be charged as to whether the battery is being properly charged, whether it can be charged and that it is fully charged.

Abstract: A floor covering, as for indoor public walking areas, being made up of sections, each section being substantially rectangular in plan, having a fairly narrow width and being disposed in closely spaced parallel relationship. Coupling members not unlike double hinges connect adjacent sides of the sections, the coupling members being particularly arranged to permit a compact rollup of the sections for cleaning purposes.

Abstract: An automotive accessory translucent disk wheel cover overlying a supporting plate non-rotatably mounted upon the axle of an automotive vehicle overlying a supporting plate member having mounted thereon a multiplicity of lamps in circuit individually disposed within recessed portions of said plate member, the lamps being turned on and off in a desired sequence to provide the illusion of movement such as of spokes of a wheel as viewed upon the wheel cover.

Abstract: A seat structure particularly for use as in an ice fishing house, the seat structure being constructed to be elevated to a convenient seating height by being positioned upon and supported by a fishing bucket and permitting free access to the bucket, the improvement consisting of leg members having notched bottom end portions arranged to receive therein and be supported upon the upper open rim portion of a fishing pail or bucket, the leg members depending from a rigid seat member and the seat member being formed to include an overlying layer of weather resistant insulating material.

Abstract: In the sight opening of the face shield of a welding helmet, a protective lens overlying a filter lens and having a light impervious coating about its edge portion blocking the passage of light rays through its edge portion and through the clearance about the lenses within the sight opening and thus eliminating the use of a gasket or other sealant about the lens first mentioned or within or about the sight opening.

Abstract: A feed diverting guide plate at the material entrance to the grinding chamber of a hammermill, the plate being magnetized on both sides thereof and being tiltably reversible in position, the magnetized sides of the guide plate attracting with one side thereof tramp iron from the material entering the grinding chamber and attracting with the other side thereof tramp iron from the material being circulated through the grinding chamber.

Abstract: The invention herein relates to the construction of the blade of a hockey stick wherein the blade embodies a replaceable resilient portion thereof to have such sufficient frictional engagement with the hockey puck as to provide a sufficient control of the puck for an accurate aim and an accurate line of travel and be useable for either a righthanded or lefthanded movement of the hockey stick.
