  • Patent number: 6070922
    Abstract: For sliding doors of a stall shower tracking in front and rear tracks with a sliding clearance therebetween, front and rear brackets suspended on the tracks and each having a leg respectively projected into a tracking path of movement, and each having additional legs positioned in the sliding clearance for interconnection to thereby immobilize the doors against sliding movement while the brackets remain interengaged thus serving, as one end use, the child-proofing of the stall shower against any non-supervised entry into the stall shower when it is not in use.

  • Patent number: 6071173
    Abstract: A miniature-sized toy vehicle that is set in motion with a push along an intended straight-ahead path of movement and which rides on a ball bearing in depending relation from the vehicle chassis, the revolving mode of which ball bearing contributes to an optimum length of travel, and wherein the vehicle chassis has a rotative degree of movement about the ball bearing and during its travel will realign itself, if inadvertently released at an angle to the movement path, into a proper position for travel along the intended straight-ahead path of movement, to further increase the length of travel of the toy vehicle.

  • Patent number: 6067679
    Abstract: A prop to hold a patient on his/her side while in a hospital bed in which a standard-sized hospital pillow is stowed in a rolled condition within a launderable sleeve having a sleeve-attached flap of approximately eight inches tucked beneath the patient's side which allows limited patient rolling movement against the prop which contributes to patient comfort. The eight inch dimension of the flap keeps the prop close to the patient so that more drastic movement which could cause injury does not occur.

  • Patent number: 6047563
    Abstract: A lock of hair displayed in a vertical orientation that is attached to a string-like depending component of an earring using a slipknot in the string to engage the lock of hair, wherein the knot both holds the lock of hair in place and also compresses its girth so that the non-compressed girth above the knot prevents inadvertent disengaging descending movement through the knot.

  • Patent number: 6007461
    Abstract: An exercise device with compartment-housed weights sometimes used without all weights in place, adapted for use in a pool environment by a flap which is held in place over the compartments by "VELCRO" hook and loop fasteners so as to contribute to providing a hermetic seal so that there is nominal seepage of water into empty compartments as might inadvertently add to the weight used for exercise routines.

  • Patent number: 6004245
    Abstract: A weight-supporting user-encircling frame into which the user positions him/her self preparatory to lifting the frame with weights of a selected extent mounted thereon. The frame has vertically positionable hand grips that in their positions of movement effect the extent of the knee bend in the assumed lifting position of the user, thus obviating, for example, a deep knee bend which for medical reasons the user should not assume while weight-lifting.

  • Patent number: 5989615
    Abstract: The removal of albedo in the preparation of a citrus fruit for consumption, in which a known aqueous solution of pectinase enzyme is used for its known albedo-removal function, but in the present circumstances a vacuum is used to primarily draw the pectinase enzyme to the interface of the albedo and the citrus fruit and only nominally to the interface of the albedo and the peel of the citrus fruit, so that removal of the peel carries with it the albedo and uncovers the citrus fruit in a desirable albedo-free condition.

  • Patent number: 5964520
    Abstract: An outdoor Christmas tree-type miniature decoration light in the use of which beads of rain on an elevated length portion of an electrical conductor will seek its level and flow to the positive and negative contacts of the light, and wherein contact-separating means and discharge ports are strategically located to prevent inflowing rain water from causing a short circuit.

  • Patent number: 5951128
    Abstract: For a vehicle front bench seating arrangement in which an arm rest is pivotal between a horizontal in-use position and a vertical non-use position at a location between the driver's and the passenger's seats, and a lap-top computer in a housing is positioned in facing relation to the driver supported upon the in-use armrest position, and the lap-top computer housing has a vertical degree of adjusting movement to account for the different heights of armrests, so that the keyboard of the lap-top computer is horizontally oriented to facilitate the use of the push buttons on the keyboard.

  • Patent number: 5950363
    Abstract: For a plant potted in a conical pot, an oversized conical sleeve disposed in encircling relation about the conical pot and, in advance of a storm or similar plant-destroying weather condition, the sleeve is raised into an in-use position protecting the plant. The in-use raised position is maintained by a friction fit established between the difference sizes of conical pot and sleeve. During non-use of the sleeve, it is held in its encircling position by the weight of the conical pot and growing earth of the plant.

  • Patent number: 5886288
    Abstract: A hand grenade safety pin with attached pull ring which is installed with a rotative degree of movement and in one directional rotative traverse the pull ring clears a blocking arm so that the grenade can be detonated and, if circumstances warrant, an opposite rotative traverse restores the safety function of the safety pin.
