  • Patent number: 4438614
    Abstract: An interior partition system wherein with relatively few components, most of which can be roll formed from common sets of roller dies, a wide variety of interior screens or full height partitions can be constructed, thus avoiding the necessity of the manufacture and inventory of a large number of parts. For some parts, where volume may not justify the investment in the required roll sets, other manufacturing techniques may be employed, but such parts are readily compatible with the high volume components and usable interchangeably therewith.

  • Patent number: 4428484
    Abstract: A portable wine bottle carrier is characterized by a tote bag having a non-rigid bottom and sides and an open top, and a cushion divider for dividing the interior of the bag into two vertical compartments suitable for receipt of a wine bottle in each whereby bottles carried in the bag in the compartments are maintained in spaced, cushioned relationship. In one form of carrier, the cushion divider consists of a flexible padded tongue secured at its lower end to the bottom of the bag, which divides the bag into the vertical compartments or alternatively the divider may be adjusted or positioned to the side to accommodate a single wine bottle of standard or larger size. Also with the use of a larger size wine bottle, the tongue may be folded upon itself and on the bottom of the bag to provide a padded base support for the bottle. In another form of carrier, the cushion divider consists of an inverted T-shape cardboard insert.

  • Patent number: 4310933
    Abstract: A disposer mount assembly includes a non-rotatable plastic sink flange having a tubular portion extending downwardly through and beneath the drain opening and terminating in a lip resiliently embraced by an elastomeric cushion mount, a mounting ring with inclined camming slots rotatably mounted on the tubular portion by the cushion mount, and a disposer hopper having an upper flange with lugs projecting radially outwardly therefrom into the camming slots. Selective rotation of the mounting ring cams the lugs upwardly along the inclined camming slots to a final locked position therein in which the correspondingly elevated hopper flange is connected to the mount ring and compresses the cushion mount, thereby to provide a tight resilient seal between the disposer and sink flange to absorb vibration and sound.
