Abstract: A toenail clipping device for decreasing a reach required for trimming a toenail includes a clippers, which in turn comprises a clip lever that is operationally coupled to a pair of cutters. The cutters are mutually coupled to define a gap that is positioned at a first end of the clippers. A rod is coupled to and extends substantially perpendicularly from a second end of the clippers. The rod is configured to be grasped in a hand of a user, positioning the user to manipulate the clippers to insert a portion of a toenail into the gap. An actuator is coupled to the rod distal from the clippers and is operationally coupled to the clip lever. The actuator is configured to be actuated by a digit of the hand grasping the rod to lever the clip lever to close the gap to clip the portion of the toenail.

Abstract: A method and device for quickly, easily, efficiently and safely dispensing hot melt from a container includes a dumper for receiving a container of hot melt. The dumper has removable smooth inner sheeting for receiving and holding canisters of different materials. The dumper has a heater heated by overlapping conducting coils for heating the hot melt in the container. The dumper receives the hot melt container at floor level and thereafter is actuated to move the dumper over and about a hopper to invert the container above the hopper. Additionally, the dumper forms a hermetic seal about the container and the hopper for firmly holding the container within the dumper to allow the hopper and the bottom of the container to be subjected to a controlled atmosphere.
