  • Patent number: 7322459
    Abstract: A product conveying and accumulation system and method employs a primary product transporting conveyor with accumulation and re-circulating sections. The conveyor is configured to receive products from an upstream destination and discharge products to a downstream destination. A second conveyor, operable at a considerable slower speed than the first conveyor, is located in the same transverse plane as and is aligned adjacent to the first conveyor. Both conveyors travel in the same direction at the adjacent alignment. As products are discharged from the system, a wall of product is formed on the slower moving conveyor. As a result, products on the inner lane of the faster moving conveyor which would otherwise tend to move inward towards the discharge point, causing product turbulence and disruption, are urged back onto the inner lane by the product wall and then smoothly discharged from the system to the downstream destination.

  • Patent number: 7316095
    Abstract: An adjustable depth fishing lure has a lure body with forward and tail sections. A diving lip is pivotably attached to the forward section of the body by dual arm members. The diving lip is configured to be adjustably positioned at a plurality of angles in relation to the lure body by a control element located within the forward section. The control element has a plurality of slots into which the diving lip can be set. A push tab extends from the element. A spring is positioned between a front wall of the forward section and the control element. The spring applies a compressive force against the control element, which biases the element against the diving lip to maintain it in one of the plurality of slots. When the control element's tab is pushed, the element travels inward into the forward section, which releases the pressure on the diving lip, allowing it to be repositioned into another of the slots.

  • Patent number: 7313844
    Abstract: A trash receptacle cleaning product has a trash receiving receptacle with side walls and a bottom wall. Side walls of the container extend past the bottom wall, forming a base for the container and a partially enclosed space below the bottom wall of the container. The front wall of the container has a cut-out or indented section configured to accept and store the handle of a cleaning implement, such as a lobby dustpan and broom unit. The space beneath the bottom wall permits the insertion of the lower part of the cleaning implement within the space. The result is a compact, self-contained trash cleaning product which can easily and conveniently be transported for use to any given location for cleaning and sweeping.

  • Patent number: 7284292
    Abstract: A manually operated scrub brush implement uses batteries to drive a motor, through gearing to rotate a first scrub brush mounted on the implement for rotational brush cleaning of soiled surfaces. A second, stationary scrub brush, mounted at an angle in relation to the first scrub brush, is positioned on the lower surface of the implement to allow the user the option to use the scrub brush implement as a manual scrub brush as well, by applying pressure on the handle section of the implement to clean ingrained soiled surfaces.

  • Patent number: 7273342
    Abstract: A non-articulated boom extension is designed to be attached to the moveable support arm of a skid steer loader or similar construction vehicle, to increase both horizontal and vertical reach capabilities of the vehicle. The boom extension is formed with two longitudinally extending rigid arm members which are immoveably connected at an obtuse angle in relation to each other. An intermediate support section is secured to both arms to maintain a rigid connection, thus insuring that the extender, at all times, maintains this advantageous configuration. The boom extension has a base at the end of one of its arm members which allows the extension to be pivotally connected for angular adjustment with the support arm of the vehicle. At the other end of the boom extension, there is a connection for attaching an auger, hook, or other work-related apparatus.

  • Patent number: 7257854
    Abstract: A reversible cleaning bonnet has a unitary central body member with first and second face surfaces. The body is encompassed by a cover which has two cleaning surfaces, i.e. either two scrubbing, polishing, dusting, mopping, etc. surfaces, or any combination of these surfaces The cover also has an elastic band which permits the bonnet to be attached to the cleaning head of a cleaning implement. The elastic band also permits the cover to be changed from one position in which one of the cleaning surfaces is exposed for use, to a second position which permits the second cleaning surface of the cover to be exposed and used.

  • Patent number: 7246399
    Abstract: A mop head retaining clamp has a mop handle receiving base member. A lower clamp arm, with retaining teeth is pivotally connected to the base at one end of the arm. The other end of the arm is pivotally connected to one end of a side arm member. The other end of the side arm member is pivotally connected to a handle attached to a lockable insert. The insert is sized to fit snugly into a cavity in the base member and is removeably locked in place by the interaction of the insert's extended front surface with a lipped section extending from the cavity. A mop head attached with this clamp is securely fastened to its mop handle during use, but it can be readily disengaged when the mop head needs to be replaced.

  • Patent number: 7225573
    Abstract: A lightweight, easily portable, convertible billboard display has three panels rotatably connected to each other in parallel fashion. The billboard display can be used as a vertically standing three panel display or, when two of the panels are connected by a removable connection component, as a three dimensional triangular display. Informational display items can be removably attached to the display panels. In addition, pockets, variously located within each panel, allow for the insertion and display of and full access to multi-page display items, mounted directly on the billboard display.
