Abstract: An improved automotive type electric storage battery assembly including a primary storage battery of a conventional type having a casing providing a receptacle for a secondary, smaller storage battery. Each of the batteries are provided with conventional side mount or top mount positive and negative posts and the primary and second storage battery each are provided with a receptacle and plug mechanism respectively for quickly interconnecting the two batteries to obtain maximum cranking amperage. The secondary storage battery and primary storage battery casings are adapted for quick clamping and releasing mechanism requiring no tools such that the secondary battery may be easily removed and stored in a warm location in extreme cold conditions.

Abstract: An improved automotive type V-belt being of a truncated trapezoidal shape in cross-sectional dimension, the belting being endless and molded or otherwise formed around a flexible metal or plastic strapping type material, the strapping material being similarly endless and having evenly longitudinally spaced apertures throughout its length. The belting can be cut to any desired length, the belting drawn back from the strapping and the ends of the strapping suitably joined with a fastener through the apertures, after which the belting ends may be released to again cover the strapping and meet in end to end smoothly abutting relationship.

Abstract: In common style cycle kickstands, particularly bicycle kickstands by cycles used and parked on dirt or soft blacktop drives, the weight of the cycle when the stand is in cycle supporting position will cause the kickstand foot to dig into the surface. The cycle will then fall over on its side damaging the cycle and if the cycle was on a blacktop surface, the stand damages that surface also. This problem is overcome by the present invention which is an accessory for the kickstand that is constructed from deformable plastic or rubber. The accessory is provided with a passageway slightly smaller in cross-section than the stand leg and foot so that it can be manually pushed over the kickstand leg and foot frictionally engaging the kickstand leg and foot in a tight fit.

Abstract: The present invention comprises an improved after burner for a multi-chamber incinerator including a pair of successive gas flow tubes having arcuate surfaces disposed one over the other such that the said one is an arcuate surface having a radius to a longitudinal centerline axis which is oriented in the same vertical plane but offset above the longitudinal centerline axis of the said other of said arcuate surfaces, baffles for directing gas flow including such flow from the first of said tubes to the second of said tubes, ports for ingesting air into said tubes at an angle to the path of gas flow through the tubes and super oxygenating the tubes and burners in the tubes to totally consume combustible pollutants carried by the gas flow.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a wheelchair for the physically or mentally handicapped wherein cross brace structure extending between the sides of the wheelchair is provided below the seat adjacent the front thereof and additional cross brace structure is provided extending between the sides of the chair across the back above seat level so that said chair structure can be backed over a water closet and further wherein said seat includes a plurality of sections one of which can be withdrawn from beneath a user without loss of body support enabling a handicapped user to eliminate body wastes without assistance or embarrassment.
