Abstract: A step assembly is provided that can be easily slipped into a utility pole opening and locked in place, and then easily removed after use. The step assembly includes 1) a step member having first and second legs, which are connected at one end and open at the opposite end and 2) a lever member that is rotatably attached to the step member and that urges the first and second legs apart. The free end of the legs include tabs protruding upwardly. The step assembly is inserted into the utility pole opening by pressing the legs toward each other. The step assembly is then inserted into the opening. The legs are released such that the legs spread apart and press against the opening's sides. The lever member is then rotated, forcing the enlarged portion between the legs of the step assembly to lock the step assembly in place.

Abstract: A longitudinally adjustable leg assembly, comprising a holder (9, 12) which is adapted to be fixed to the underside of a table top (1); first and second elongate carrier elements (2, 3) which are directed away from the holder (9, 12) and cooperate by threaded engagement. The first carrier element (2) is mounted rotatably but axially immovably in the holder (9, 12) and one (2; 3) of the first and second carrier elements (2, 3) having an external thread and the other (3; 2) of the first and second carrier elements (2, 3) being a tube having an internal thread portion at one end in threaded engagement with the external thread. An electric motor is arranged for rotating the first carrier element (2). A device is arranged for interrupting the current to the motor when the leg assembly is in a limit position of maximum or minimum length.

Abstract: An antislip pad is designed for protectively mounting onto an end of a changeover switch that is used to change over computer peripherals to be connected to a main unit of the computer. The pad is made of a material providing good softness. When a changeover switch has two antislip pads mounted onto two ends thereof, a bottom surface of the switch is not in direct contact with a surface on which the switch is positioned, protecting the switch from easily slipping over or dropping from the surface. The antislip pad is provided at upper and lower end surfaces with corresponding recesses and projections, respectively, so that two or more antislip pads could be stacked with the projections of an upper pad fitly engaging with the recesses of a lower pad to prevent the stacked pads from slipping relative to each other.

Abstract: An agricultural clip is provided that holds a first agricultural element, such as an irrigation pipe or wire, in a predetermined relationship with a second agricultural element, such as a wire. For example, the agricultural clip is used to keep the irrigation holes in an irrigation pipe pointed down to deposit water where needed.

Abstract: A mounting device for a florist basket has a mount and a bracket detachably connected with the mount. The mount consists of a C-clamp so that the mount is able to attach to an object by adjusting the adjustment screw inside the mount. The bracket has a slot defined to allow the extension of a top horizontal arm of the mount and an extension formed to detachably engage with the top horizontal arm. The bracket further has a pair of hooks and seats so defined that one of multiple lateral strands of the florist basket is able to be received in the seats.

Abstract: An assembly (20) of artwork (21) and backing (22) wherein a combination of floater anchors (24), hard anchors (26), and soft anchors (25) produce a floatability of artwork about its backing and which eliminates curling or rippling to it due to temperature and humidity changes. The floater anchor (24) is formed from a pair of tape pieces (35-1, 35-2) fastened together by a pair of crossing ties (37, 38) that interlace the pieces (35-1, 35-2). Piece (35-1) is adhered to artwork (21) and piece (35-2) is adhered to backing (22), whereby artwork (21) can shift about backing (22) to the extent of the spacing distance between the attachment, such as by glue spots (40), of ties(37, 38)to pieces (35-1, 35-2). Hard anchors (26) are formed by providing ribbons (42) of glue between pieces (35-1, 35-2) and ties (37, 38) so that the pieces (35-1, 35-2) do not shift between each other.
