Abstract: Emitter barb installation tool 20 has driving mechanism 24, emitter barb feeder magazine 26 and pipe support 22. Pipe support 22 holds and supports a pipe 5. Feeder magazine 26 holds and feeds emitter barbs 10. Feeder magazine 26 places one of the emitter barbs 10 into a driving position. Driving mechanism 24 drives the emitter barb 10 from the driving position towards and into the pipe 5 held and supported by the pipe support 22. After the one barb 10 has been driven into the pipe 5, the pipe 5 with installed barb 10 is released from the tool 20. Another emitter barb 10 in the feeder magazine 26 is then automatically located into the driving position for the next installation into a pipe 5. This installation process automatically and continuously repeats for insertion of additional emitter barbs 10. Individual emitter barbs 10 are detachably coupled to one another to form an emitter barb cluster 74.

Abstract: A combination toothbrush and storage/dispenser apparatus 10 having a handle 30 with a hollow chamber 30A, a toothbrush head 20 attached to an end of the handle 30, and at least one tray 40 for storing articles which the at least one tray 40 slidingly inserts into and moves inside the hollow chamber 30A. The articles stored in the tray 40 can be pills 70. The combination apparatus 10 can further have a pill dispenser 50 that is integral with an end of the handle 30 for dispensing pills 70 from the tray 40. The pill dispenser 50 has a dispensing slot 51 through which the pills 70 are dispensed and a tray stop located near the dispensing slot 51 for stopping the tray 40 from further being removed from the handle 30 when a pill 70 is at the dispensing slot 51. The tray stop can be a deflectable tray stop 55 which allows the tray 40 that is loaded with pills 70 to be inserted into the hollow chamber 30A, but stops the movement of the tray 40 when a pill 70 is at the dispensing slot 51 ready to be dispensed.
