Abstract: The invention provides the combination of a grille and a connector frame for a duct outlet in a HVAC system. At least one lock element extends from one of the connector frame and the grille and releaseably engages the other of the connector frame and grille in a releasable connection to hold the grille to the connector frame. The lock element may be manipulated from the exterior of the grille to release the grille from the connector frame without the use of tools.
Abstract: A security storage container includes a base and a lid that define a concave indentation when the lid is closed. A lock having at least a first lock finger is adapted to lock the lid in the closed position. The lock finger of the lock extends into the concave indentation when the lock is locked to the container. The lock includes spaced apart walls that are configured to overlap portions of the base and lid to prevent the lid from being opening when the lock is in the locked condition.

Abstract: The present invention provides a security device and method for securing a media case. The security device may include a hinged pair of closure members, which when closed define a substantially rectangular aperture for receiving a media case to be secured with a close fit. The closure members include an internal protrusion that extends within a portion of the substantially rectangular aperture that coincides with a finger cavity portion of a media case. The closure members include a latch opposite the side including the internal protrusion.
Abstract: A ratchet assembly includes a threaded rod and a support collar that defines a bore. A portion of the threaded rod is disposed in the axial bore of the support collar. A ratchet pawl is pivotable carried by the support collar between locked and unlocked positions. The ratchet pawl has at least one tooth that threadably engages the threaded rod when the ratchet pawl is in the locked position to allow the threaded rod to threadably rotate with respect to the support collar for fine position adjustments. The ratchet pawl automatically pivots to the unlocked position when the threaded rod is forced in a direction from the first end toward the second end to allow for gross position adjustments.
Abstract: The present invention provides a roofing product comprising a flexible roofing membrane comprising a layer of a thermoplastic, and a batten strip integral with the roofing membrane, so that the roofing product is flexible.
