Abstract: A method of making a molded applique product. A printed applique substrate is formed into a three dimensional shape and placed into a mold whereupon a molten resin is injected into the mold cavity space located behind the formed substrate.
Abstract: A locking device for use with a video cassette tape to prevent unauthorized usage in view of its content. The device incorporates a member that is expandable into certain recesses of the cassette when placed into a locking mode and, is not expanded when the cassette is in a non-locking mode. A specialized key is utilized with the device to prevent its duplication.
Abstract: A module for measuring level, plumb and various angles by a simple hand manipulation. The module, which contains a bubble in a vial, is in one modality located in a carpenter's leveling bar and is slidable therein so that it may always be oriented at eye level for ease of viewing. The module is compact in size and design for ease in carrying on one's person and, it may be attached to a framing square or a straight edge, for example, such that measuring of the horizontal, vertical, and acute or obtuse angles may be readily accomplished in a portable fashion. In another mode, the measuring module which is formed upon a four-sided support member may be utilized without any additional structural element to provide a self contained angular measuring mechanism.
Abstract: A support pillow comprised of a shell having a hollow interior, said interior being equipped with an adjustable expandable bladder which is connected to a gas line including a valve means that extends through said shell. The bladder can be inflated and deflated to provide a support means in which firmness can be varied and comfort maximized to accommodate the user's needs.
Abstract: Fishing waders equipped with opening and closing means so as to allow a fisherman to urinate without having to draw the garment down. The opening is in the form of a tubular member which may be coiled to return the garment to a water impervious mode.
Abstract: Storage rack systems having a plurality of storage bays adapted to store pallet loads that are three, four and five pallets deep are disclosed. Each of the systems includes a pair of outer tracks extending the full depth of the storage rack and a pair of inner tracks located inside of the outer tracks and extending for a short distance.

The sign is adapted for display in any one of three modes, namely, a bottom portion of the backing plate is coupled with a base stand for upright positioning; or alternatively, the top portion of the plate is coupled to a hook assembly to allow for a hanging arrangement; or lastly, the backing plate may be simply attached to a flat surface.
Abstract: A reversing transmission is comprised of a rotating input shaft, an output shaft rotatable in either direction, first and second rotating clutches, means operatively connected between the input shaft and the first and second clutches for causing rotation of an input drive portion thereof, first drive means responsive to engagement of the first clutch to cause rotation of the output shaft in one direction, second drive means responsive to engagement of the second clutch to cause rotation of the output shaft in the other direction, and control means responsive to a first operating condition for causing engagement of the first clutch and disengagement of the second clutch and responsive to a second operating condition for causing engagement of the second clutch and disengagement of the first clutch.
Abstract: A novel polymer consisting of a macromolecular polysaccharide matrix which is esterified in whole or in part by activated polyunsaturated acids containing twenty carbon atoms. Typical of these acids are, for example, 8, 11, 14-eicosatrienoic acid, 5, 8, 11, 14-eicosatetraenoic acid and 5, 8, 11, 14, 17-eicosapentenoic acid. These polymers are therapeutically useful products which have utility in the same fields of application as the prostaglandins but absent their adverse side effects.
