Abstract: A particulate blocking undergarment for workers operating in hazardous environments. The undergarment adds particulate blocking technology to an undergarment (men's and women's brief, bra) that provides a protective barrier to significantly reduce the risk of exposure to carcinogens and infiltration around protective over garments. The protective barrier includes a plurality of layers including an inner flame retardant layer and an outer particulate blocking layer. The inner layer may include a Polartech® Power Stretch FR® material—and/or other material per NFPA 1975. The outer layer may include a Stedfast, Stedair® Prevent material—and/or other materials per NPFA 1971.

Abstract: A head-mounted display system is provided, including a head-mounted display, an imaging sensor, and a processor. The processor may convey instructions to the head-mounted display to display a virtual object at a world-locked location in a physical environment. The processor may receive imaging data of the physical environment from the imaging sensor. The processor may determine, based on the imaging data, that a world-space distance between a hand of a user and the world-locked location is below a predetermined distance threshold. The processor may convey instructions to the head-mounted display to display a bounding virtual object that covers at least a portion of the virtual object. The processor may detect, based on the imaging data, a change in the world-space distance. The processor may convey instructions to the head-mounted display to modify a visual appearance of the bounding virtual object based on the change in the world-space distance.

Abstract: A lighting system including a substantially elongated and thermally conductive system body, the system body defining a system body outer surface, the system body outer surface defining at least two outer surface mounting sections, each of the at least two outer surface mounting sections extending substantially longitudinally along the system body at different circumferential locations therearound; a LED strip including a substantially elongated strip body defining strip body back and front surfaces and a plurality of LEDs mounted to the strip body front surface; and a substantially elongated heat sink, the heat sink defining a heat sink back surface and a substantially opposed heat sink front surface. The LED strip and the heat sink are each alternatively mountable to any one of the at least two outer surface mounting sections with the strip body back surface and the heat sink back surface abutting against the outer surface mounting sections.

Abstract: A pop up shelter for sheltering a neighboring vehicle has a rectangular base frame adapted to be securely attached to the roof of a vehicle and includes at least one cross support member, an elongated rotating frame having an axis point rotating member attached at a center portion thereof and adapted to be connected to the base frame at a center portion thereof and rotatable thereon. The rotating frame further includes a sleeve and holding member at each opposite end thereof and adapted to hold a plurality of telescoping sheath sections therein.

Abstract: A versatile valance light fixture having a light emitting member that can be easily removed for maintenance or replacement, as well as being relatively easily customizable in terms of the direction and the color of the light that it is emitting toward its surrounding space. Furthermore, a plurality of versatile valance light fixtures can be easily connected in a daisy chain configuration.

Abstract: A valance for concealing a headrail, the valance being usable with a light source, a first decorative insert and a second decorative insert, the second decorative insert having a different configuration than the first decorative insert.

Abstract: A blade portion for a hockey stick comprising a wooden shank portion, a blade element made of synthetic material and a ground contacting portion comprising a first segment formed of the lower edge of the wooden shank portion and a second segment formed of the lower edge of the blade element extending from the front side of the wooden shank portion to the distal end of the blade element.

Abstract: A washer apparatus (10) includes a washing chamber (W) with a plurality of spray nozzles (N) and a pump (P1) for circulating the washing fluid (F) through the spray nozzles (N) for cleaning the contents of the washing chamber (W). A pH sensor (20) contacts the washing fluid (F) and a digital pH controller (30) connected to the pH sensor (20) generates digital pH values of the fluid (F). An acid neutralizing system (80) and an alkaline neutralizing system (90) are provided for selectively injecting acid neutralizer and alkaline neutralizer into the reservoir (S, T), respectively. An electronic controller (12) controls the operation of the washer (10) and the acid and alkaline neutralizer injection systems (80, 90) in response to the pH of the washing fluid (F) as determined by the digital pH controller (30).

Abstract: A washing chamber (10) is surrounded by corner manifolds (14) and interconnecting conduits (16) extending along top, bottom, and side walls of the washing chamber. The conduits have nozzles (12) therein for spraying washing and rinsing liquids into the washing chamber. A central header assembly (40) includes a conduit (42) extending from one of the headers to a terminal end adjacent a central plane of the washing chamber. The central header assembly includes a header (46) with a manifold portion (48) and a plurality of extending arms (50) with nozzles on opposite sides. The header manifold portion is connected with the terminal end of the conduit (42). In one embodiment, a pivotal fluid connection and valve (44) enables the header to pivot between a position in the vertical plane and a stowed position parallel to the top of the washing chamber. In another embodiment, a quick-connect coupler system (100) interconnects the header with an outlet at the terminal end of the conduit (42).
