  • Patent number: 7152325
    Abstract: The powered tubing cutter is a hand held, mechanical device driven by a motor for cutting tubing/piping. The device comprises a housing, a drive plate, a main drive shaft, a cutting assembly having a cutting blade, a cam plate and a chain drive secured to a motor housing, having a handle, by a mounting bracket. The chain drive is powered by the motor, which causes the main drive shaft to rotate. The cutting assembly is pivotally secured to a pin on the main drive shaft. The pipe/tube to be cut is placed into the hole in the center of the housing and the main drive shaft. As the cutting assembly rotates with the main drive shaft the cam plate forces the cutting blade into cutting engagement with the tube/pipe.

  • Patent number: 5353880
    Abstract: A system for extinguishing flames resulting from the ignition of grease dripping from meats cooking on a barbecue grill with a flame extinguishing fluid, preferably water. The fluid is contained in a reservoir supported on the barbecue grill frame. In the preferred embodiment fluid is manually pumped from the reservoir to an apertured discharge conduit within the lower shell of the barbecue grill using an air pump which displaces fluid from the reservoir, forcing the fluid through the apertured conduit and into the grill. An electric fluid pump replaces the air pump in an alternate embodiment.
