Abstract: A pallet formed of a honeycomb material. The honeycomb material includes an upper surface on which goods may be placed, a lower surface, a first pair of opposed perimeter walls, and a second pair of opposed perimeter walls. A first pair of slots is integrally formed in the lower surface of the honeycomb material. The first pair of slots extend between the first pair of opposed perimeter walls. A second pair of slots is also integrally formed in the lower surface of the honeycomb material. The second pair of slots extend between the second pair of opposed perimeter walls. Both the first and second pair of slots are engageable by forks of a material handling device.

Abstract: A device for attaching an elongated handle to any one of a variety of cleaning implements, regardless of whether the cleaning implements are provided with a socket or a protuberance for purposes of attaching an elongated handle thereto. The device preferably comprises an externally threaded protuberance and an internally threaded socket, where the threads of the externally threaded protuberance and the internally threaded socket are non-complementary to one another, the externally threaded protuberance is adapted for mating with a socket having complementary internal threads, and the internally threaded socket is adapted for mating with a protuberance having complementary external threads, whereby the device can be joined with another device comprising either one of the socket having complementary internal threads and the protuberance having complementary external threads.

Abstract: A temporary seat, permitting a driver to sit on the metal seat frame of a vehicle to drive the vehicle prior to installation of a permanent seat for the vehicle comprises a generally rectangular seat core made of pasteboard supported and on the metal seat frame. The seat core has an upper surface, a lower surface and a cellular construction spacing the upper and lower surfaces for resisting compressive forces tending to move the upper surface toward the lower surface and bending forces tending to bend the upper and lower surfaces out of their planes when the driver sits on the temporary seat. A seat cover of the temporary seat comprises a one piece sheet of pasteboard having fold lines. The seat cover includes a bottom panel generally underlying the lower surface of the seat core and having openings and receiving fasteners into the seat core to secure the temporary seat on the metal frame.
