Abstract: An extension between a driving tool and a driven member which has a hollow body with external gear teeth on one end which is releasably retained in the driving tool. The second end of the body has internal teeth which cooperate with external teeth on the driven member. Also, in the second end of the body is a retaining ring to releasably retain the member to be driven. A sleeve is slidingly received in the body. The sleeve is longitudinally slidable within the body from a first position in which the sleeve is slid fully inwardly to eject the driven member and a second position in which the sleeve is slid outwardly from the body when the driven member is inserted.

Abstract: A drain plug system for a boat which has a sleeve in the drain opening and an expandable drain plug to be disposed in the sleeve. A retainer is connected to the drain plug. The retainer is disposed within the sleeve and has ends which engage the inner side of the sleeve when the drain plug is contracted so that the drain plug is prevented from being lost.
Abstract: A compact foldable merchandising display rack having a pair of rectangular frames pivotably connected to a horizontal support, one frame being on each side of the horizontal support. A pair of half-round frames are also pivotably connected to the horizontal support. Each half-round frame is nested within the confines of the respective rectangular frame. Each frame may be moved independently from a storage position in a vertical plane to an erected position in a horizontal plane. The rack is adjustable to a selected height. Each frame may be secured in the erected position. A plurality of the racks may be nested to reduce storage area.
Abstract: A device for supplying a mixture of fluids (cleaning agent and air) to a color bank in a paint finishing system for the purpose of removing paint residue, thereby flushing out the system. The device, may be supplied with any number and types of fluids. The device comprises valves for the purpose of activating fluid flow, an overall shape that allows for easing mounting in an existing color changer rack system or as an independent device, and a screen plate located in the path of the fluids, for the purpose of mixing the fluids. A screen plate and discharge port is configured into the body of the device to deliver the cleaning fluid mixture in a turbulent swirling movement to the next section of the color bank or to the next item to be cleaned. A method of cleaning a color bank using the device is disclosed.
Abstract: A crutch adapted to be used by a person has a vertical post with a loop formed in the center portion. An underarm support member is connected to the top of the post. The upper portion of the post above the loop is offset from the lower portion below the loop. The person's hand is supported on a selected portion of the loop. The underarm support has a pivoted sleeve thereon for the comfort of the person.
Abstract: A pesticide and a method of using the pesticide to kill invertebrates, especially insects, arachnids and larvae. The method is to prepare a mixture of a carrier with the pesticide and apply the mixture to the insects, arachnids and larvae and their habitat. The pesticide is a neurotransmitter affector utilizing octopamine receptor sites in the insects, arachnids and larvae. The affector agent is a chemical having a six membered carbon ring having substituted thereon at least one oxygenated functional group. The affector agent is a chemical component of a plant essential oil and is naturally occurring. Deposition of the chemicals of the present invention on a surface provides residual toxicity for up to 30 days. Various carriers for the affector agent are disclosed. The chemicals of the present invention deter feeding of insects, arachnids and larvae and also retard growth of the larvae of the insects and arachnids.
