Abstract: An invention for facilitating the installation and removal of a partition or similar wall-like structure from the interior sections of an aircraft, including a support member, which is attached to any solid or structural section of the aircraft, and a partition fitting, which is secured along any edge of the partition or wall-like structure. The partition is then mountable within any area inside the aircraft by engaging the respective components in joined connection and securing them using any conventional means. The support member comprises a base plate and a section extending vertically from the base diminishing in thickness to form a shank member adaptable for releasable engagement with the partition fitting component of the device. The partition fitting includes a peripheral channel defined by parallel face opposed elements and is adaptable for connection along any edge of the partition or wall-like unit intended to be installed inside the aircraft.

Abstract: A turret tool measuring device which includes an annular member shaped to enable it to fit easily and securely into the hub of a screw machine tool turret. A flange member formed integrally with the annular member, which together form the base element of the invention, cooperates to ensure that the annular member remains securely in the hub and the device is fully rotatable about the turret's central axis. The flange member includes the means to receive a rod member on which a guide member may be mounted. The guide member includes an opening conformed to slidably receive the rod member and an indicator arm extending therefrom. The guide member also includes a locking element adapted to fixedly secure the guide member to the rod when the device is in the process of measuring the longitudinal position of a turret tool.

Abstract: The present invention provide for a drumhead, or the head of any percussion or related instrument, such as a tambourine, which includes a layer in which a hologram image is formed which incorporates a thin metal coating conforming substantially to the contours of the hologram, and a dark colored synthetic substrate, to which the bottom surface of the layer of film incorporating the hologram is laminated. The thin metal coating, often aluminum as the metal alloy of choice, is applied utilizing a process commonly known in the art as "metalizing", wherein the molecules of the metal are dispersed relatively evenly over a given surface by the decomposition of the metal in its gaseous form. The coating is deposited to a thickness that allows approximately 65% light transmission through the hologram forming film layer and enables the dark colored substrate beneath to enhance the dramatic and colorful light effects ultimately achieved by the invention.

Abstract: A dome-shaped device usually four to five feet in diameter with a continuous channel section formed integrally around its perimeter. The device is of a unitary construction and is typically formed of a synthetic substance, such as polyethylene. The unique design of the device and particularly the density of the material comprising the device, enables it to be submersed just below the surface of the water to achieve a maximum stability. The unitary construction serves also to optimize the conduction process that is involved in the transfer of the solar energy through the walls of the device to heat the surrounding pool water. The channel section formed around the periphery of the device acts, in part, as a stabilizer to preclude against undesirable movements and sustain the degree of buoyancy necessary to maintain the unit in a submersed attitude without restricting its ability to freely bob up and down in the water.

Abstract: An embroidery frame having generally rectangular shaped side members and front and back members that define the perimeter of the frame, a clamp that is integrated with and extends across the front member of the frame having ends that attach to the respective side members. A cross member extends across the approximate mid-section of the frame, has ends that attach to the respective side members and includes a plurality of vertically oriented teeth that penetrate and hold a section of the fabric of the hat to assist in drawing taut the working area that is to be embroidered or monogrammed. The cross member is slideably adjusted along the length of the frame and is adapted to be fixed securedly to the side members when the hat is being monogrammed or embroidered. Incorporated in the frame and mounted at the approximate mid-section of the front member is a curved rod member, which is attached to a lever assembly that permits the rod to be lowered and lifted from the working area.

Abstract: A tube shaped sleeve apparatus which includes two cylindrical components adapted to be connected to each other and sections of tubing string by cooperating threads formed at the ends thereof. At spaced intervals in the periphery of the sleeve are a plurality of radial holes or ports and formed in the sleeve bore at opposite ends thereof are stops shoulders. Adapted to be inserted in slidable relation inside the bore of the tubing sleeve is a mandrel which includes a plurality of resilient O-rings or gaskets that are secured in the periphery of the mandrel inside annular grooves formed therein. Formed in the bore of the mandrel and at opposite ends thereof are a second set of stop shoulders. When positioned opposite the holes in the sleeve, the periphery of the mandrel and the gaskets form a tight seal with the wall of the sleeve bore to prevent fluids and gases from the well bore from entering and escaping the tubing sleeve.

Abstract: A fish shaped amusement device that is substantially hollow, includes within the hollow area a sound activated switch, a motor with a self-contained power source and a slightly bent shaft rotatably connected to the motor. A plurality of disc-shaped plates are eccentrically mounted upon the shaft. The shaft and the eccentrically mounted discs, which project into the cavity of the fish along its longitudinal axis and terminate within the portion of the cavity defined by the fish's tail section, engage the inner wall defining the hollow area to impart lifelike movement to the fish.

Abstract: The present invention in its preferred embodiment comprises a combination anchor including a first tubular member having a circular shoulder formed around the perimeter of its bore. Adapted to be releasably inserted inside the tubular member is a bullplug comprising a cylindrical shaped plug member with a rounded bottom section and a seat ring adapted to be threadedly connected to the top section of the plug member. Adapted to be connected to the seat ring and plug member by means of cooperating threads is a mandrel. A conical member having a plurality of compressible legs depending therefrom is insertable over the mandrel and secured thereon by a cap member which fits over the conical member and may be attached thereto by means of cooperating threads. Threadedly connected to the top of the cap and extending upwardly into the bore of the tubing string is a rod, which is more commonly known in the trade as a rod sub. At the end of this rod sub is the male counterpart of a locking device known as a J-latch pin.

Abstract: A custom cone machine for the use on or off the place of dispersement for use of edible containers to serve varying types of food, such as dairy products, salads, etc. fresh and of varying ingredients commensurate with the type of food served. The machine is fully automatic in the timing, cooking and ejection of the finished cone. The injection of the batter requiring approximately 3 seconds, is with a hand held batter injector that does not require any particular skill in its use. Due to is being automatic in all phases of the cooking and ejection cycle, eliminates the handling of hot cones and equipment by the operator and is a distinct safety advantage over the present on-site cone making machines.Due to its unique injection and cycling action varying shapes, designs and sizes of food or dairy products, edible serving containers can be produced in a like manner as of the cones by the design and shape of the cooking heads.
