Abstract: An Internet on-line insurance policy service system that facilitates real-time automated communication of policy information, adjustment of policy parameters, calculation and communication of resulting policy quotes, and implementation of policy changes, while obviating insurer personnel involvement and supervision of the communication. The system comprises a plurality of software modules relating to on-line real-time communication of existing policy information, testing of a wide range of variations in policy parameters, computing and communicating changes in policy premiums that would result from such variations, communicating desired changes in policy parameters and implementing desired policy changes. Other modules relate to communication of claims information and the providing of on-line forms.

Abstract: A template having a plurality of holes at predetermined distances oriented in such a way that the template provides holes to drill fastening holes for a first accessory, such as a towel bar, and holes to drill fastening holes for a second accessory, such as a paper holder. A first line of holes and a second line of holes are aligned at a right angle such that in operation, the template is held in a first position when drilling for the first accessory and the template is held in a second position when drilling for the second accessory. The second position is obtained by rotating the template 90° from the first position. The template also includes a pair of bubble gauges which are oriented at a right angle with respect to each other.

Abstract: The invention is for a tub grip for a bathtub that assists bathers in entering and exiting a bathtub. The tub grip is sturdy and easy to attach and remove for those that may suffer from loss of strength and dexterity due to advanced age, injury, illness, or other medical condition. In addition, the tub grip is constructed to resist wear and tear and provide its users with a substantial service life. One embodiment of the invention comprises a locking member, a first arm assembly, a clamp assembly, a second arm assembly, and, at least one locking plate. The first and the second arm assemblies and the locking plate are mounted on the locking member, whereas the clamp assembly is attached to the locking member. The locking member comprises a plurality of teeth, to which the locking plate is selectively engageable.

Abstract: A bathroom accessory mounting assembly and method of mounting are provided. The mounting assembly includes a mounting bracket, fastener, flange and post. The mounting bracket includes an axially extending body portion that receives the post. The mounting bracket includes a snap flange that cooperates with the post to secure the post to the mounting bracket.

Abstract: A machine (10) that can clean and spray coat the inside of a hollow pipe (14) can contain a support bar (16) and associated motors (6 and 8) with a moveable carriage (12) which mounts a thermal spray coating device (28) and/or an abrasion cleaning/profiling head (30) where a programmable controller external to the pipe is capable of controlling the motors (6 and 8).

Abstract: A pitch control system for a bulldozer having a bulldozer blade that is mounted to a blade linkage. The bulldozer blade is coupled to the blade linkage by a bearing that permits the right and left angling movement of the bulldozer blade and the forward and rearward pitch of the bulldozer blade relative to the blade linkage. An angling control valve hydraulically positions two hydraulic angling cylinders for angling the blade right and left relative to the blade linkage. A hydraulic dump valve is hydraulically positioned between the angling hydraulic control valve and the hydraulic angling cylinder, the hydraulic dump valve having a dump position and a checked position. A linear actuator in the form of a hydraulic pitch cylinder is operatively positioned between the blade linkage and the blade for selectively adjusting the pitch of the blade relative to the blade linkage. A pitch control valve is used to selectively position the pitch cylinder.
