Abstract: This invention relates to an improved connector construction for releasably connecting one tubular member to another. A first tubular member has an aperture contained therein. A screw fastener member is mounted in the aperture. The screw fastener has an enlarged portion on the exterior of the tubular member preventing the screw fastener from passing through the aperture into the interior of the tube. The screw fastener member has a second enlarged portion within the tube. The space between the first and second enlarged portions is less than the thickness of the tube to hold the screw fastener member frictionally in the tubular member and to prevent rotation of the screw fastener member relative to the tubular member. A second tubular member has a portion positioned adjacent to the aperture in the first tubular member and the screw fastener member. A second screw fastener member is rotatably mounted in the second tubular member and is held therein.

Abstract: A chair construction having a movable seat and back includes a pair of chair sides. Said chair sides are mirror images of each other. A substantially horizontal seat is positioned between said chair sides, and a substantially vertical back is also positioned between said chair sides. Each of the chair sides is formed of a single piece of continuous elongated flexible tubular plastic material. Each chair side includes a back upright. Each back upright has a horizontal floor rail formed integral with the lower end thereof. Each horizontal floor rail has a front upright formed integral therewith. Each front upright has an arm portion formed integral with the upper end thereof. Each arm portion is fixed to its respective back upright.

Abstract: A hose storage apparatus for storing and transporting a hose on a reel. The reel is rotatably mounted on a frame which is formed of a plastic material. The frame has a molded plastic handle pivotally attached thereto. The handle is positionable in an upright attitude to provide a convenient means for manipulating the apparatus. The handle may be selectively lowered to a lowered position wherein portions of the handle are positioned adjacent to the frame to reduce the height of the apparatus and thereby facilitate storage. A lock releasably secures the handle to the frame in a selected attitude. The reel includes a pair of identical molded plastic reel halves. Each half includes a reel side with a hub. Each hub is rotatably mounted in the frame. A plurality of pylons is formed integral with each of the reel sides. The pylons of each reel side are secured to each other and form a hose support surface. A hose connector is mounted on one reel side.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved collapsible square case having a square open top and being particularly adapted for holding a plurality of items. The case includes a pair of opposed corner panels. Each of the corner panels has a flat side and a corner wall formed integral with one edge of the respective flat side being substantially perpendicular to the flat side. Each of said corner panels being an integral molded plastic panel. Said flat sides are parallel to each other. Said corner walls are parallel to each other. A pair of flat panels, each having one edge hingedly connected to a corner wall and the opposite edge connected to the edge of the flat side of the other corner panel. Each of the flat panels being an integral molded plastic part. A floor panel being an integral molded plastic part. Said floor panel being hingedly connected to the lower edge of a flat side of one of the corner panels.
