Abstract: A stationary exercise device includes a frame member having a transverse pivot axis. A first and a second foot tread member are operatively associated with a coupling member for pivotally coupling the first end of each foot tread member to the pivot axis at a predetermined distance from the pivot axis, so that each foot tread member first end travels in an arcuate path about the pivot axis. Each foot tread member moves independently of the other foot tread member. Each foot tread member second end is operatively associated with a glide member for moveable coupling of the second end of each foot tread member to a support surface. The glide members direct each foot tread member second end along a reciprocating path of travel, as each foot tread member first end travels in an arcuate path.

Abstract: The invention is a clothes dryer featuring an interior working volume that is adjustable to suit the size of the load and type of article(s) to be dried. Since the volume is adjusted to fit the load, only the necessary volume is heated. For large loads or bulky articles, the volume is set to full, while for small loads and small articles the volume may be decreased for faster drying and energy savings. The dryer working volume is adjusted by a simple manually operated linkage, or, in other embodiments, by motorized mechanisms.

Abstract: Disclosed is a device for removing woodwork and trim from the interior or exterior of buildings. Its function is such that damage to the woodwork, and to the wall from which it is removed, is minimized or eliminated. In operation, the device is first driven between the wall and the woodwork to be removed. A specially shaped bar is then inserted between the base of the device and a spring loaded lifter plate. When this bar is pivoted, the lifter plate is moved away from the base, wedging the woodwork loose. Since a relatively large surface area acts on the wall and the woodwork, gouging or other damage is unlikely. Removed trim pieces may be reinstalled or salvaged for use on other projects.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a curb and cap mounting assembly for installation on the roof or wall of a structure. The assembly comprises a curb member that includes a planar flashing portion with a central housing portion extending upwardly forming an enclosed space.

Abstract: A method for playing a putting game on a golf green surface is disclosed. Each player is provided a like plurality of golf balls, each ball having a unique feature for association with one player. In each round, all balls are placed on the circumference of a circle of a selected radius, with the cup at the circle center. Each player putts the balls having that player's associated unique feature until each ball enters the cup or each ball is putted twice. All balls failing to enter the cup in two putts are removed from play after the second putt. A score value is provided to each player for each ball remaining in play at the end of the round. In each subsequent round, the above steps are repeated with each circle radius greater than the prior circle radius, until all balls are out of play. The score value for each player is totaled to determine a winner.
