Abstract: A load-rated tool tether has a gate and a serrated surface strap integrally formed with the gate and extending from the gate. The gate has a channel therethrough between an entrance and an exit and a locking tang operably interfacing the channel between the entrance and the exit for the feed in and one-way non-releasable engagement of the strap therethrough in use. The tether has a securement ring integrally formed with the gate and extending from between the entrance and the connection edge of the gate at an angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the channel. When the strap is tightened around a tool, the securement ring is resiliency held by the integrally formed gate secured either side thereof by the strap between the integral connection edge and the entrance in a spaced apart configuration and the undersurface bears tangentially against the tool.

Abstract: A grip assist apparatus for weightlifting that includes a gripping portion with spine insert that is sufficiently pliable to be bent to allow a user to reach the end with their fingers and wrap the gripping portion around an axle bar but sufficiently resilient to substantially return to its starting position after the gripping portion is released.

Abstract: A fastener anchoring system is disclosed. The fastener anchoring system provides for an anchor with first-direction external threading, while a bore through the anchor provides second-direction internal threading. Thus, the anchor is screwed/secured to a substrate in the first direction and unscrewed in the second direction, while the fastener being anchored in the bore is screwed/secured in the second direction and unscrewed in the first direction. As a result, unscrewing the fastener does not urge the unscrewing of the anchor from the substrate.

Abstract: A paint polish sealant composition is disclosed herein, as well as processes for preparing the same. A benefit to the paint polish sealant composition can be providing a protective treatment having superior shine and durability for a painted surface.

Abstract: A device for more efficient coupling and de-coupling of a hole saw to an arbor. A hole saw has a bottom wall with a central threaded hole. The arbor's clamping device has first and second thread-engaging parts for engaging the internal thread in the hole saw's bottom hole. The thread-engaging parts are moveable with respect to one another perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the hole saw. When the thread-engaging parts are in a first, disengaged position, the clamping device allows retraction from or insertion into the hole saw's bottom hole substantially longitudinally. When the thread-engaging parts are in a second or engaged position having a larger circumference, the clamping device engages the internal thread in the hole saw's bottom hole for clamping the clamping device in the hole. The clamping device used in the hole saw provides a quick-coupling for mounting a hole saw on an arbor.

Abstract: Method and device for detecting the flow of liquid, in particular water, in a consuming installation, comprising at least one opening/closing means (3) for supplying liquid, this installation being supplied via an inlet pipe (2) fitted with a solenoid valve (5), a pressure sensor (6) upstream of the solenoid valve and a pressure sensor (7) downstream of the solenoid valve.

Abstract: A beverage bottle having fingergrip indentations which facilitate grasping and holding of the bottle without slipping. The location of the fingergrips in relation to a label bearing a brand name affords a high degree of brand name visibility in environments where consumption of the contents is directly from the bottle. Special geometry of the fingergrip indentations permits high speed filling of the bottles with beer without excessive turbulence and foaming.

Abstract: An improved scoring tool has a uniquely configured tip arranged to be inserted into a cooperative recess provided in a pistol-shaped handle. The handle has an upper tip-holding portion, and a graspable portion extending downwardly away from the tip-holding portion. The front surface of the graspable portion is provided with a plurality of undulations to accommodate the fingers of an operator grasping the handle with a prehensile grip. The improved tip is provided with a sharpened point formed by the mutual intersection of four surfaces. A modified tip is provided with a glass-cutting wheel. The shape of the handle allows the operator to maintain adequate control, while exerting greater downward pressures to more deeply and clearly score sheet material.
