  • Patent number: 6131972
    Abstract: A D-shaped grip handle for use with a hand manipulated implement includes a generally U-shaped portion having an integral mounting sleeve for mounting the grip handle on the end of a shaft and having a hand grip bar integrally formed with the U-shaped portion so as to be disposed substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the mounting sleeve. The grip bar has a layer of soft rubber material, such as thermoplastic rubber, formed circumferentially thereon so as to create a pattern of spaced raised pads along approximately one-half of the circumference of the soft rubber layer, with the remaining half of said circumference defining a continuous smooth grip surface having an undulating contour to receive the fingers of the user's hand.

  • Patent number: 6099092
    Abstract: A locking arrangement for a cabinet, the cabinet having a top panel, a base panel, and at least one pivoting door panel, with the panels connected to one another to define an internal storage region, includes a cam-shaped projection formed on one of the hinge element and the corresponding side pane. The cam has first and second surfaces formed contiguous with the respective one of the hinge element and the corresponding side panel, and a retaining member formed on the other of the hinge element and the corresponding side panel. The retaining member has a recess formed therein. The cam-shaped projection and the retaining member frictionally cooperate with one another to maintain the door panel in the closed position with the cam-shaped projection engaged in the recess. The cam-shaped projection further maintains the door in an at least partially opened position when the cam-shaped projection is disengaged from the recess, in contact with the retaining member.

  • Patent number: 6086073
    Abstract: A portable work center includes a molded base panel having a plurality of clamping members, at least one wheel assembly support and at least one support leg in spaced relation to the wheel assembly support. A molded top panel is in spaced, parallel relation to the base panel, and has a plurality of clamping members, each corresponding to a clamping member on the base panel. A pair of opposingly oriented side panels extend between and connect the top and base panels to one another. A rear panel is positioned adjacent and between the side panels and extends between the top and base panels. A pair of pivotal front door panels is disposed in opposing relation to the rear panel and extends substantially between the top and base panels and the side panels. Together, the side panels, rear panel, top panel, base panel and door panels define an internal storage region and four corners. Corner support posts are positioned at each of the corners and extend between the base panel and the top panel.
