  • Patent number: 4597727
    Abstract: A kit for the in-place repairing of windshields and the method for using such kit, wherein a repair material injected into the windshield break area by a syringe and needle is forced into the windshield break through a repair assembly secured and sealed to the windshield by first applying stepped increments of measured vacuum levels and visually monitoring the windshield break area, and second applying positive pressure to the windshield break. An ultraviolet light source completes the repair by expediting hardening of the repair material within the windshield break to prevent refraction of light at the windshield break.

  • Patent number: 4469075
    Abstract: A fuel system and electronic control therefor which is especially designed for use with an internal combustion engine or the like in which said fuel system is operable to provide fuel fumes or vapor to the engine from a source of liquid ignitable vaporizable fuel, such as gasoline, of sufficient quantity whereby to significantly increase the efficiency of the engine and thus substantially increase the per gallon mileage rate for the engine when used in an automotive vehicle or the like, and one using liquid fuel as the original fuel source. The system incorporates an electronic control operable to monitor a plurality of engine parameters and which control is responsive to a change in engine demand for said fuel and resultant change in one or more of said engine parameters to maintain the optimum ratio of vaporized fuel and air in the mixture delivered to the engine for combustion.

  • Patent number: RE35627
    Abstract: A portable support stand having a platform for supporting the power tool or workpiece and brackets for releasably attaching the power tool to the platform. Right and left support arms are attached to the support stand for supporting the ends of the workpiece. An attachment mechanism connects the platform to a sawhorse .Iadd.or other support structure .Iaddend.so that the support arms are generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the saw horse .Iadd.or support structure.Iaddend.. The method of the present invention is directed to attaching a portable support stand to a sawhorse .Iadd.or other support structure .Iaddend.for supporting a power tool and a workpiece. The portable support stand is engaged with the top member of the sawhorse .Iadd.or support structure .Iaddend.so that the support arms are generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the top member. A power tool is then attached to the platform using the brackets provided.
