  • Patent number: 7566151
    Abstract: The present invention is concerned with providing a support for temporary lighting for use with scaffolding systems. The support assembly comprises of two main components and the required fastening systems to affix lighting fixtures and mast light fixtures embodied in two configurations. The support consists of a thin walled pipe with a tube half clamp welded to one end and a thin walled tee welded to the opposite end. The clamp and tee are orientated to provide the support with a precise mounting position. A second thin walled pipe is positioned concentrically through the tee to create framework that has an angled appearance. The second pipe is maintained annular and concentric to the first pipe by means of two washer type collars welded above and below the tee that constrains both pipes to each other. A small space between the collar and tee provides the second pipe with unconstrained rotational movement. Lanyards incorporated in the support are fixed directly to the scaffold for job site safety concerns.

  • Publication number: 20050253402
    Abstract: A security device for limiting opening of an inwardly-openable door (4) in a building. The device comprises keep means (6) adapted to be secured to a region of an inside surface (8) of the door (4) and arm means (12) adapted to be swivelably secured at a first end (14) thereof to an interior surface (16) of the building fixed relative to the door (4). The arm means (12) is adapted to be manually swivelled between a first position, clear of the door (4), and a second position in which a second end (18) of the arm means (12) abuttingly engages the keep means (6) to limit opening of the door (4). At least one spring means is provided incorporated in the keep means (6) and/or the arm means (12) to absorb energy upon engagement of the second end (18) of the arm means (12) with the keep means (6).
