Abstract: A decorative balloon holder for use at a party comprises a container formed generally in the shape of a geometric pyramid of a light-transmitting material of color and having a central opening. A removable closure is provided for the central opening to enable the container to be filled with festive material such as marbles or candy and the like that are not only capable of serving as ballast to hold one or more buoyant party balloons upon a tabletop, but also enable the balloon holder can serve as a party favor.

Abstract: A balloon holder simulating a small gift bag comprises a small decorative bag, a core held within the small decorative bag and having sufficient weight to hold at least one buoyant balloon in place, and decorative material secured to the core in a position to conceal the core from casual view. The decorative material preferably is formed from a length of decorative sheet material having its upper portion cut into a series of strips adapted to extend outwardly from the covering simulating a small decorative bag. In one embodiment useful for a larger size covering simulating a decorative gift bag, an inner liner is fitted within the covering with the core being held to the interior of the lower portion of the inner liner and the decorative material being held to the interior of the upper periphery of the inner liner.

Abstract: A decorative balloon holder has a core having sufficient weight to hold a buoyant balloon in position on a tabletop or the like. The balloon holder has an attachment held directly to the core for securing the string of the balloon, and has a layer of decorative material wrapped around the core.

Abstract: A novelty product includes a holder to be held inside the mouth of a user and a carrier to be held removably by the holder and having a first compartment containing a chemiluminescent solution separated from a second compartment containing an activator for the chemiluminescent solution by a frangible barrier. The carrier may be inserted into the holder and the holder flexed to break the barrier and mix the chemiluminescent solution and activator to produce chemiluminescent light inside the mouth of a user. The carrier can be replaced upon the light produced diminishing.

Abstract: A chemiluminescent novelty eyeglass frame has curved portions which will extend proximate the eyes of the user. The curved portions are formed with channels which are adapted to receive compartmented ampules containing a chemiluminescent solution separated from an activator. A frangible barrier is provided in the ampules, and the barrier is ruptured by bending the ampules for insertion into the channels. In this way, the chemiluminescent solution and activator mix to produce chemiluminescent light emanating from the frame upon insertion of the ampules into the channels of the curved portions of the eyeglass frame.

Abstract: A high pressure hot water acid washer is towed to a site on a trailer. A chemical tank and gasoline and diesel fuel tanks are filled. A water supply hose is connected to a water tank. A power cord is connected to a power source. A float valve controls the filling of the water tank. Water flows from the water tank through a Y-type filter to a water pump. A drain withdraws water directly from the water pump. The water pump and a compressor are driven with an engine. Pressurized water flows through a flow switch to a heat exchanger. Upon water flow, the flow switch completes a power circuit to operate a fuel pump with an electric motor. Fuel is pumped from the fuel tank and is atomized and sprayed into the heat exchanger. An ignition coil ignites the fuel. The power circuit is interrupted upon sensing a high temperature in a pressurized water delivery line from the heat exchanger. Pressure of pressurized hot water in the delivery line is controlled with a hot water pressure relief valve.

Abstract: A caster wheel consisting of a pair of one-piece hub portions adapted to be releasably secured together to support a polyurethane tire and permit replacement thereof. The inner portion of the tire is trapped in a cavity which permits the tire to expand, or flow, axially under load bearing conditions. The tire's side walls are supported by a pair of outwardly divergently disposed support surfaces which substantially engage the entire length of the side walls to form a solid radial column of tire support and incorporate radial projections to prohibit relative rotation between the tire and the hub portions.
