Abstract: An insert strip which is detachably insertable into a receiver strip so as to form a plate shelf to retain the side walls of the plate glass panels of a lampshade. A lower support which has a retainer ridge which conforms to the shape of the lower wall of the plate glass panel and retains the plate glass panel therein. The lower support also has a catch on either end thereof which fits into and is retained by catch holes on an injection plate. The injection plate also has an insert strip cavity and retainer walls which retain the insert strip and the receiver strip, respectively.

Abstract: A fishing reel having independent reeling and unreeling modes is described. The reel has a spindle which coacts with a ratchet and a pawl for reeling, while a spool positioned on the spindle may be rotated counter to the reeling direction of the spindle at a speed governed by a friction brake located in a recess defined about the spindle in the spool. A handle for reeling the spool is attached to the spindle, and the force of the friction brake is governed by a threaded knob located at the end of the spindle.

Abstract: A process and apparatus for preparing bivalves for human consumption which includes depositing the bivalves in a fresh salt water bath maintained at a temperature of from about 46.degree. F. to about 54.degree. F. wherein the water is provided from an aquifer of not more than about 200 feet below the surface of the earth at a rate of from about 0.5 to about 2.0 gallons per minute per bushel, and preferably about 1 gallon per minute per bushel. The oxygen level in the fresh salt water is maintained at a level of from about 4 to about 10 ppm. As a result of the present invention, bivalves recovered, even from uncertified waters, can be sufficiently purified for human consumption in 48 hours without degrading the quality of the bivalves.

Abstract: A combination portable dolly and collapsible stool for transporting photography equipment and the like, and for providing an elevated platform for taking photographs. The legs of the stool are pivotally mounted at opposite ends of a rectangular box platform and are braced by members (which may be U-shaped) that are pivotally secured to vertical portions of the stool legs and which have free ends that are secured by a latching means in either extended leg bracing position or in collapsed carrying position.Rollers are mounted on the exterior of the legs adjacent the pivots so that when the legs are collapsed the rollers support the base platform as a dolly. In such collapsed condition, the legs rest within each other and are secured together by an interlocking means.

Abstract: A glove conditioning container designed particularly for conditioning gloves used for various sports such as golf and handball.
