  • Patent number: 6820612
    Abstract: An asthma/allergy inhaler holster has a main body part comprising an elongated sheath. A holding mechanism attached proximal to an open end of said main body part, and extending over the open end secures an inhaler within the holster. A grommet is affixed to the main body part and positioned off center proximal to a closed end of the sheath. The grommet is adapted to attach the inhaler holster to a member, such as a key chain, ring, or the like, passed therethrough. The holster substantially envelops the inhaler, to protect it from contamination by dirt and debris. Its construction affords immediate access to the medicament in the inhaler. Adjustment and holding mechanisms cooperate collectively to enable the holster to accommodate differently sized inhalers. The convenience afforded by the grommet decreases difficulties presented when the user forgets the holster during travel away from the home.

  • Patent number: 6701698
    Abstract: An apparatus for finely pulverizing lawn debris has a central drive shaft driven by a gasoline or electrical power source. Lawn debris is drawn into a sucking chamber by a fan impeller blade mounted on the central drive shaft. The fan impeller blade initiates pulverization of the debris in the suction chamber. A grinding blade is mounted for rotation on the central drive shaft below the fan impeller blade. The grinding blade carries a plurality of blade elements operative to effect additional pulverization of the initially pulverized debris. A distributing plate mounted for rotation on the central shaft has a plurality of inclined apertures therein for dispensing a high velocity stream of the pulverized debris uniformly over said lawn.
