  • Patent number: 10435270
    Abstract: An apparatus that may be used for the display and storage of decorative lights is disclosed. The apparatus may include a housing that includes a hollow body portion defining an interior and a substantially cylindrical neck portion that defines an axis that extends into the body portion, the neck portion further defining an opening for accessing the interior. The apparatus may further include a lid assembly configured to be removably coupled with the housing. The lid assembly may include a fixed portion configured to be removably coupled with the housing, and a movable portion movably coupled with the fixed portion. The movable portion may move from an open configuration to a closed configuration to alter the size of an opening provided through the lid assembly.

  • Patent number: 9332812
    Abstract: An illuminable bracelet generally includes a buckle, a band having a first end and a second end, a closure member disposed at the second end, a light source, and at least one logo disposed along an inner surface of the band. The band may be formed of a polymeric material that allows light from the light source in the buckle to permeate through the band, illuminating the band and the at least one logo of the band. The band may form a closed-loop when a closure member is used to secure the second end of the band to the buckle. Further, the buckle may have a switch that allows a user to control the light source.

  • Patent number: 6076314
    Abstract: A window frame includes a head, a one-piece stepped and sloped bottom sill and one-piece side jambs with integral sash and screen tracks. The side jambs, head and bottom sill are welded together at the corners, such that jamb walls attach to the appropriate walls of the head and sill to form a water-tight frame. The bottom sill is one-piece, with integral sloped steps that form the floors of the various sash and screen tracks. It includes an integral dam and integral internal strengthening walls that are strategically placed to support the otherwise hollow sill. The jamb, which is also one-piece, includes integral internal strengthening walls that correspond to the strengthening walls of the bottom sill, and integral track side and front walls that define the tracks for tie sashes and screen. These walls extend the length of the jamb and connect, when the frame is assembled, to appropriate walls of both the head and the bottom sill.

  • Patent number: 5547011
    Abstract: A window screen frame includes at least one corner key which has, as an integral component, a stop that prevents the screen frame from penetrating too deeply into tracks in a window jamb. The corner key is preferably molded plastic and includes two legs, each supporting a raised member. The legs meet at an angle to form the corner and the raised members form the stop. In a preferred embodiment, the raised members meet at the corner to form a corner-shaped stop. One or more of the corner keys may also include integral handles, for moving the frame along tracks in the window jamb. The corner keys may further include retreats for receiving locking pins. The locking pins extend through the window frame and into the retreats to retain the window screen frame in a desired position. A window screen frame including at least one of these corner keys also includes frame segments that mate with the corner key.

  • Patent number: 5446997
    Abstract: A window assembly includes standard-sized sashes with lock and keeper rails that overlap and interlock such that adjacent sides of the rails are held in close proximity when the assembly is closed. The lock rail includes an exterior wall with an exterior edge that protrudes slightly. The keeper rail includes an interior wall with a first side, a substantially parallel second side and a top edge that extends between the two sides. The top edge includes an integral trough for receiving the protruding edge of the lock rail. When the assembly is closed, the protruding edge overlaps and interconnects with the keeper rail, such that the edge sits in the trough. The exterior wall of the lock rail is thus held in close proximity to the second side of the interior wall of the keeper rail and air flow between the rails is minimized. The rails preferably support strategically placed upper and lower gaskets, which are hidden from view when the assembly is closed.
