Abstract: A device (10) which attaches to a tube dispenser (106) containing a viscous liquid (110). when the attached device (10) is grasped and pushed forward, the rear section of the dispenser (106) is flattened causing the remaining liquid to be displaced near the front end of the dispenser (106). The device (10) includes a rectangular frame having a front section (12), a rear section (24), a right section (36) and a left section (52). Extending downward and inward from the rear section (24) is a ramp (68) extending upward from the upper surfaces (46,62) of the right and left sections (36,52) is a vertical section (84) which adds rigidly to the device (10) and is suitable for applying indicia (112). Between the front section (12) and the vertical section (84) is located a tube insertion slot (102) and between the vertical section (84) and the ramp (68) is located a tube exit slot (104). The two slots allow the rear section of the tube dispenser (106) to be inserted into the device (10).

Abstract: A plastic bracket assembly is provided for mounting a pedestrian crossing switch and sign on a pole. The assembly includes a plastic frame which circumscribes an open front of the assembly for receiving the sign, and a switch housing mounted on the frame adjacent to the sign. The bracket assembly is adaptable to fit a number of different sized poles merely by changing a top member which is removably mounted on the frame. The sign is formed of clear plastic, with indicia on its back visible through the plastic. The sign is held in place by the top member, and side tabs which are formed integral with the frame. Accordingly, no screws are required for mounting the sign. The bracket is mounted on the pole by two screws which extend through bushings formed in a strap which is integral with the frame, and which extends across the open front of the frame behind the sign.

Abstract: A housing for an auxiliary storage battery is provided which may be fitted into the wall of a camper. The housing is formed of plastic material, and it is of an integral, impervious construction, so that no fumes from the storage battery can enter the interior of the camper. The housing is equipped with a slidable shelf to permit the battery to be pulled out through the open front of the housing for servicing or replacement purposes. A removable hinged door is provided which is vented to permit air circulation through the housing, and a lock and other fastening means are provided to hold the door in a closed position.
