Abstract: A dispensing device for beverage cup lid which prevents excessive human contact with the lid prior to insertion upon the beverage cup, the device providing a central stationary lid retaining rod suspended from a lid cabinet upon which a stacked plurality of lids are retained through a central bore, the lids urged downward by a traveling press plate engaging a rotating threaded shaft, the threaded shaft moving the press plate against the uppermost lid on the retaining rod pressing the stacked plurality of lids down along the retaining rod in increments programmed to release only the lowermost lid from the end of the retaining rod onto the top of a beverage cup positioned below the retaining rod. The device is operated by the activation of a presence sensor, either a beverage cup or a clean hand, which causes the incremental dispensing of a single lid.

Abstract: The B-post extension device is a movable support base utilized in emergency rescue situations involving automobiles, specifically door openings, the device providing for an adjustable support base for an extension ram, the device being placed against a support structure within the automobile, the device further having an adjustable slide plate secured upon at least two support rod arms, the support rod arms spanning a distance between a heel portion and a toe portion, the toe and heel portion resting against the automobile support structure, reducing the distance required to be pushed by the extension ram and providing readjustment for the increasing span of the door opening during extension and recovery of the extension ram.

Abstract: A backlit display apparatus mounts to an exterior surface, including an automobile, wherein plain paper designs, digital photographs on plain paper or transparencies may be displayed between a white translucent dispersing panel and a clear front panel, with the front panel and the dispersing panel having a weather-proof seal. A high lumen light source, which could consist of a single bulb or a plurality of low lumen light sources, is located behind the dispersing panel, powered by either an internal DC electrical power source, an external DC electrical power source or an external 110 volt AC power source, the high lumen light source having a variable illumination control mechanism to select from a constant illumination, a flashing illumination or a passive illumination, such passive illumination derived from the external power source, including the brake light electrical system or the running light electrical system of an automobile to which the apparatus may be attached.

Abstract: The invention is a mechanical suspension system for cab-over tractors, specifically those used in terminal transport having two front cushion dual suspension components on the front pivot area of the cab to tractor frame connection and a single rear cushion dual suspension component on the rear of the tractor frame at the cab-over latch area, the three point dual suspension system providing a more stable suspension package than the four point and other single suspension systems.

Abstract: A wall mounted multiple bar soap storage dispenser allowing for the storage and drainage of multiple soap bars in the bath or shower area in which multiple soap bars are placed in individual pivoting soap compartments accessible by opening the pivoting compartment, removing the bar soap and replacing the bar soap in the container for drainage and drying of the bar soap until its next use.
