Abstract: A method for smoothing and tensioning a fabric cover over a curved furniture frame to provide a wrinkle-free appearance. The method comprises providing a cover assembly including a fabric sheet with a sleeve and a spring steel strip pre-inserted therein, the strip having a natural bias toward a straight configuration. The assembly is secured to a curved furniture frame via upper and lower connecting means. Tensioning is achieved through the mechanical interference between the straight bias of the spring steel strip and the arcuate geometry of the furniture frame. As the strip attempts to return to its straight configuration, it exerts a continuous outward force that pushes the fabric away from the curved frame, thereby eliminating wrinkles and maintaining the fabric in a smooth, tensioned state regardless of frame irregularities.

Abstract: A column gap cover system that includes right and left columns with toothed wheels intended to be fixed to a furniture, right and left ratchet clamps including a half-round clamp and a pawl connected together by a spring, and a sheet of fabric that its ends are connected to the clamps. The system is intended to cover a gap between the columns. The clamps are assembled on the columns and the pawls engage dips between the teeth of the toothed wheels, and the spring secure the pawls to the wheels, by that fastening the clamps to the columns. The clamps are manually rotatable on the columns, allowing the user to tension the sheet and engage the pawls in the appropriate dips to maintain the fabric in a taut state.

Abstract: A bucket for chilling bottles that includes a vessel and right, left and central stoppers that form part of the vessel's bottom. The right stopper is located between the center of the vessel and the right side of the vessel, the left stopper is located between the center of the vessel and the left side of the vessel, and the central stopper is located in the center of the vessel. The vessel can receive a bottle in a first position when the bottle is placed between the left stopper and the left side wall of the vessel, in a second position when the bottle is placed on the left stopper, in a third position when the bottle is placed on the right stopper, and in a fourth position when the bottle is placed on the central stopper.

Abstract: A self-tensioning smooth-curved fabric cover for covering a curved frame of furniture that includes a sheet of fabric, a spring steel strip, and upper connecting means. The sheet of fabric has a polygonal shape with four sides and includes a sleeve along the upper side of the sheet. The spring is positioned inside the sleeve. The first side of each upper connecting means is connected to the sleeve or to the spring inside the sleeve and the second side of each upper connecting means is connected to the frame. When the fabric cover is assembled on the frame, the spring tensions the sleeve and the sheet of fabric away from the frame and the sheet of fabric laid smooth.

Abstract: A parallel fixation means for fixing two swivel wheels of a non-motorized vehicle in parallel to one direction that includes a rigid strip with connecting means for connecting the parallel fixation means to a body of the non-motorized vehicle and two locking means to be mounted on the two swivel wheels and to fix them in parallel to the one direction for preventing a rotation of the swivel wheels. The two locking means are connected to the rigid strip by means of pivot connections to be in a fixed direction or in a loose and free to rotate position. When the pivot connections are in the fixed direction the two swivel wheels are fixed in the one direction, and when the pivot connections are in the loose and free to rotate position the two swivel wheels are free to function as swivel wheels.

Abstract: A desktop shield system for splashes protection that has a right rod, a left rod and a panel shield. The lower end of the right rod is connected to a base that its first side has a protrusion that corresponds with a recess at its second side. The right rod also includes magnet elements that are connected to its right side at a zero height. The left rod is designed in the same way as the right one but in reverse as a mirror view. The system can be connected with a another identical system, in a way that the recess of the left rod of the another system is assembled with the protrusion of the right rod of the system and the magnet elements of the left rod of the another system magnetically connected with the magnet elements of the right rod of the system.

Abstract: A quick lock-release mechanism for assembling a table plate to table legs that includes a lower ring, a cap, two locking wings and a two springs. The lower ring includes a central hole and two opening pins. The cap includes a circumferential rim and two pins. The locking wings include an axial hole, a hole for receiving a tension screw and a sloping side. The springs and the locking wings are designed to be assembled onto the spring wings pins. The tension screws are designed to be screwed into the holes for receiving the tension screw. The springs push the locking wings toward the center of the mechanism so that the locking wings cover a part of the central hole and when rotating the cap relatively to the lower ring the spring wings pins exert force on the locking wings and push back the locking wings.
