Patent number: 11979183Abstract: Disclosed are covers for a mobile phone including aspects that protect the phone from impact and/or provide shock absorbance characteristics. Covers can include one or more protrusions that reduce the contact surface to the phone and dissipate energy. Advantageously, the one or more protrusions work with intermittent spaces to provide shock absorbing characteristics and reduce the contact surface area between the cover and the phone. In some embodiments, the protrusions can include a soft-side rectangular shape, where the protrusions are placed in an ordered array in the back wall of a cover. In some embodiments, the one or more protrusions can include a row of x-shaped protrusions interspersed with air pockets along the inside wall of the cover.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2021Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: Medway Plastics CorporationInventors: Richard E. Hutchinson, Thomas A. Hutchinson, Gerald A. Hutchinson, Steven J. Weaver

Patent number: 11851294Abstract: A stacking ring for a chair base may be disposable between a first and second chair base such that the stacking ring generally prevents lateral movement of the first chair base relative to the second chair base. The stacking ring may be integrally formed to the chair base, or separate and disposable between at least two chair bases. The stacking ring may substantially prevent rotation of a first chair base relative to a second chair base.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2021Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Medway Plastics CorporationInventors: Thomas A Hutchinson, Jr., Richard E. Hutchinson, Gerald A. Hutchinson

Patent number: 11793310Abstract: The embodiments relate to a geometric under structure, central and outer hub for a GFN plastic chair base. The geometric shape and dimensions are critical components to the overall strength of the chair base hub and arms when either vertical or rotational forces are applied at the central hub. The central hub is of sufficient thickness to maintain dimensional stability when the forces are applied. The overall geometry and material composition enable the hub area to be constructed with minimal plastic wall thickness while optimizing the physical strength of the article and facilitating high production rate.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2022Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: Medway Plastics CorporationInventors: Thomas A. Hutchinson, Jr., Gerald A. Hutchinson, Richard E. Hutchinson

Patent number: 11707057Abstract: A container for dispensing bait in variable amounts and at variable rates. A method can include changing configurations of two attachable sleeves, where the different configurations result in different overlapping of openings in the attachable sleeves. The different overlapping of openings allows fishermen the flexibility to better control the dispensing of bait and/or chum by varying the size of the openings.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2020Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Medway Plastics CorporationInventor: Richard E. Hutchinson

Patent number: 10834911Abstract: A container can dispense variable amounts of bait, for example, through holes in complementary sleeves. Different configurations can result in different hole sizes and different overlap in attachable sleeves. These differences can allow fishermen flexibility to better control the dispensing of bait and/or chum by varying the size of the openings.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2018Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Assignee: Medway Plastics CorporationInventor: Richard E. Hutchinson
