Abstract: A carrying case is described. The case includes a base, multiple sides having inner and outer faces connected to the base and extending upwardly therefrom to form a housing to hold an electronic device, and an access port on one side wherein the access port is adapted to allow a cable to pass through.

Abstract: A method of making a decorative flame barrier surface covering in which a first material as a base layer is obtained. A stiffening solution is applied to the base layer, and a flame barrier coating is applied to the stiffened base layer. A second material having a decorative design thereon is obtained as a decorative layer. A functional finish is optionally applied on the decorative layer. The base layer is combined with the decorative layer to form the decorative flame barrier surface covering of the present invention. The decorative flame barrier surface covering of the present invention achieves a Class A certification under American Society for Testing and Materials standard E84-04 without an inherently flame-resistant material as the first or second material.

Abstract: A lawn mowing apparatus is disclosed for use with a tractor or an auxiliary apparatus. The apparatus includes a trailer adapted to be connected to the hitch for the tractor, and a boom frame pivotally mounted on and above the trailer. One end of the boom frame supports an engine, while its other end supports a rotary cutting device operatively connected to the engine. A chain link drive element and sprockets engaged therewith effect pivoting movement of the boom frame relative to the trailer over about 280.degree. sweep. A hand operated crank, operable by the rider on the tractor, is operatively connected to selectively pivot the boom frame to a desired position relative to the trailer. This effects swiveling movement of the frame in either direction and, consequently, selective movement of the rotary cutter device during a cutting operation. A pivot pin rotatably supports the boom frame for vertical movement of its opposite ends about the pivot pin.
