Abstract: A supporting frame structure is formed by two oppositely disposed and substantially identically shaped halves made of a bendable elastic material. Each half is made of a foil (1). The foil (1) contains about in the middle a round or square opening (2) and on one side an incision in the shape of a cutting line (3). The cutting line (3) extends radially from the edge of the foil to the opening (2). The two foils (1), disposed opposite to each other in parallel planes, are deformed by rotation of the cutting edges by about 90.degree. out of the original foil plane in the direction of their counterpart. Subsequently, the in each case oppositely disposed cutting edges are connected to each other providing for a common, stable, and support-providing frame structure based on a mutually suspending winding tension of the two structure halves.

Abstract: This invention provides a mounting structure 10 for releasably securing an auditorium seating unit to the floor. The mounting structure includes a bracket support 12 which is a rectangular casing 32 equipped with openings 40 & 42 interconnected with a pathway slot 46. The mounting structure includes a plate member 16 that is permanently part of the leg or stanchion of the seating unit. The plate member has a stud fastener 52 and a nut/bolt arrangement 62 that depends from the plate member and are received in the openings 40 & 42. The stud 52 and the nut/bolt arrangement 62 are received in the pathway slot 46 and the fasteners 52 & 62 are guided into the openings 40 & 42. The stud 52 and nut/bolt 62 secure the seating unit to the bracket support 12. Cover plates 114 serve to cover the exposed bracket support 12 absent the seating unit 28. The plate member is equipped with a guide element 102 to facilitate locating the openings when restoring the seating unit to this auditorium.

Abstract: A fixing sucker structure including a movable handle, a sucker main body, a controlling inner tube fitted in a tube body of top end of the sucker main body, a lifting thread rod positioned in the sucker main body and screwed with the controlling inner tube and a disc-like enlarged section connected with the bottom end of the lifting thread rod. The circumference of the enlarged section is formed with annular grooves in which soft gaskets are fitted. A gasket with U-shaped cross-section is fitted with the bottom edge of the sucker main body. When the movable handle is rotated, the controlling inner tube is driven to rotate so as to micro-adjust and drive the lifting thread rod to move upward or downward within the sucker main body, creating a vacuum state therein and producing a strong sucking force for firmly attaching the sucker main body to a polished surface such as the outer surface of a car or a glass.

Abstract: A new stabilizing device for stabilizing stationary trailers. The inventive device includes a base block having top and bottom ends, and four sides. A handle is coupled to the top end of the base block. A number of nested shells are stacked on the top end of the base block.

Abstract: A foundation pier coupling system is semi-permanently attached to a movable dwelling, such as a mobile home or commercial coach, is provided. The invented system includes coupling members that are attached to a support beam of the dwelling and to a pier, for securing the pier to the dwelling. The coupling members are hingably coupled together, enabling the pier to pivot relative to the support beam. The pier is pivoted against the beam when transporting the dwelling with the pier attached to the beam. A retaining member is provided for retaining the pier against the beam, to prevent the pier from accidentally contacting a ground surface when the dwelling is in transit. At an installation site, the pier is pivoted away from the beam, until it is perpendicular thereto and to the ground, for installing the dwelling. The height of the pier is then adjusted to secure the pier to the ground and support the dwelling.

Abstract: The present invention is an improved mechanically expanding climbing aid which includes one or more pair of opposed cam members pivoting with crossed radii on eccentric bearings. The eccentric bearings are mounted on a single high strength shaft. The invention is specifically configured to be placed in cracks having side that are spaced under 1 cm.

Abstract: A handrail-wall bumper combination which includes improved structural features for the mounting of the handrail above the bumper section, providing a common appearing design for both vinyl and wood handrail portions and accommodating, in the case of either type of handrail, a smoothly contoured gripping surface, including a well-defined and highly visible accent strip. Smooth, tangentially transitioning concave and convex surfaces are provided in front and also in back of the handrail where, although not visible to the eye, such surfaces provide improved comfort and feel and reduce skin abrasions. Improved components are also provided for assembling corners and returns, including providing slightly enlarged support surfaces for longitudinal extensions of plastic cover elements to assure optimum surface alignment at joints.

Abstract: A hanging bracket is initially secured to an electric outlet box. The hanging bracket includes on one of its ends, two canopy hooks with a screw hole located therebetween. The other end of the hanging bracket includes a single screw hole. A canopy includes two spaced slots shaped and located to receive the two canopy hooks of the hanging bracket. With the canopy hooks extending through the corresponding slots in the canopy, a fan assembly is pivotally mounted on the hanging bracket. It is then possible to connect the lead wires of the outlet box and the wires of the fan assembly. All that is then required is to pivot the canopy with the associated fan assembly about the canopy hooks into a vertical orientation. No additional lifting of the fan assembly independent of the fan assembly being supported by the hanging bracket is required. A single screw is inserted through the canopy into the screw hole in the hanging bracket at the end of the hanging bracket opposite to the end which includes the canopy hooks.

Abstract: A vehicle seat adjustment system has at least two tracks and each track includes: a stationary female number, a male member slidably mounted in the female member, and a unitary locking device for removably securing the male member in the female member. The device has a first end secured to the female member, an intermediate flexible section, and a vertically displaceable second end section. The second end section has an L-shaped flange received within a slot formed in an upper surface of the female member. Cutouts are longitudinally formed along a bend in the flange and normally engage: a) longitudinally formed notches in an upper surface portion of the male member; and b) longitudinally formed notches in a flange return of the female member, the return underlying an outwardly extending flange of the male member. Vertical displacement of the locking device removes the cutouts from the engaged notches thereby allowing sliding movement of the male member within the female member.

Abstract: In a support device for supporting objects, particularly inside a vehicle, by way of a flexible arm extending between a mounting base and a mounting plate, the flexible arm consists of an elastically flexible plastic tube with a permanently bendable aluminum rod disposed within, whereby objects such as a portable CD player or cellular telephone can be supported in various positions.

Abstract: A floor anchor and leveler system for an electronic equipment rack has a leveler shaft welded or otherwise rigidly attached at the upper end to a perpendicular base plate. A leveler foot and jam nut threads onto the leveler shaft. A threaded bolt extends coaxially through the leveler shaft and engages a floor plate which is rigidly attached to the floor using anchor bolts or other means. The jam nut and leveler foot are loosely threaded onto the leveler shaft, sufficiently high to allow the caster to contact and roll on the floor. The rack is positioned on its casters until each of the floor anchor and leveler systems, which are each attached to an underside of the rack, is located and centered above its corresponding threaded floor plate anchor hole. After positioning the rack, a tie-down bolt is installed coaxially through each leveler shaft and loosely engages the threaded floor plate and anchor hole.
