Abstract: An electrophoretic medium comprises a fluid, a first, light scattering particle (typically white) and second, third and fourth particles having three subtractive primary colors (typically magenta, cyan and yellow); at least two of these colored particles being non-light scattering. The first and second particles bear polymer coatings such that the electric field required to separate an aggregate formed by the third and the fourth particles is greater than that required to separate an aggregate formed from any other two types of particles. Methods for driving the medium to produce white, black, magenta, cyan, yellow, red, green and blue colors are also described.

Abstract: A photo display incorporates a support hook(s) as a display adjunct. The hook is fabricated from a flat sheet of material. The material is capable of a high degree of flexing without breaking. Double-sided tape is employed to mount the sheet on a flat, vertical surface such as a wall or door. The sheet is sized to neatly present a display item. The display item may take the form of a photograph, an advertisement, a message, or the like. Other forms of the photo display employ adjuncts that permit easy mailing of a photograph or the like and support for displaying the photograph.

Abstract: The hanger with photo display is a support hook(s) incorporating a display adjunct. The hook is fabricated from a flat sheet of material. The material is capable of a high degree of flexing without breaking. Double-sided tape is employed to mount the sheet on a flat, vertical surface such as a wall or door. The sheet is sized to neatly present a display item. The display item may take the form of a photograph, an advertisement, a message, or the like. The display item can be easily changed without causing the double-sided mounting tape to release. The hook is designed to support a load of pre-determined maximum weight. If the predetermined weight is exceeded, the hook will bend (without breaking) to release the load.

Abstract: Support hook(s) incorporating a display adjunct. The hook is fabricated from a flat sheet of material. The material is transparent and is capable of a high degree of flexing without breaking. Double-sided tape is employed to mount the sheet on a flat, vertical surface such as a wall or door. The sheet is sized to neatly press a display against the vertical surface. The display may take the form of a photograph, an advertisement, a message, or the like. The display can be easily changed without causing the double-sided mounting tape to release. The hook is designed to support a load of pre-determined maximum weight. If the pre-determined weight is exceeded, the hook will bend (without breaking) to release the load. A frame is provided to be removably disposed over the wall or door mounted sheet.

Abstract: The storage and display package for batteries is a blister pack that can be secured in a vertical position on cabinet doors, sheds and RV walls. The package allows the user to access individual batteries from the front or top of the package, while the package is secured in such locations. The package may have a perforated, removable top section or a reclosable flap on the front of the package. The package may alternatively include a clip that may be removed from the package and secured in the stated locations with the batteries held in the clip. The package and clip may alternatively be modified to support both batteries and a household device that uses the batteries.

Abstract: A system for identifying specific information regarding the hardware configuration of a computer system improves resolution of problems via online crash and is usable for other purposes as well. Embodiments of the employ applications directed by remote computers functioning as servers, which use the specific computer system hardware-configuration information provided by the identifying system.

Abstract: A lighted display device includes three light emitting diodes therein, with each of the diodes transmitting a different one of the three subtractive primary colors of red, yellow, and blue when electrical power is applied thereto. The three LEDs are capable of collectively emitting any of the colors of the visual spectrum, depending upon the relative electrical power which is applied separately and collectively to them. The LEDs are contained in the center of a base, and are installed upon a circuit board which is in turn installed within the base. A light passage is provided in the center of the upper surface of the base, with various articles being installable thereon for supporting translucent statuary, candles, etc. as desired for lighted display thereof.

Abstract: A detachable hair-trimming attachment for a disposable safety razor which has a frame and a plurality of spaced, parallel teeth which extend above and perpendicular to the razor blade. The frame has an opening which exposes the blade to hair to be trimmed, the hair being guided to the blades by the teeth. The frame is designed with detachable fasteners which engage corresponding interengaging fasteners on the shaving head of the razor.

Abstract: A chair base and post assembly for an office chair in which the base is formed of one piece of injection molded plastic. The base includes a central tubular hub and integral base arms which extend from the hub. A partially tapered socket extends vertically through the hub. A steel post tube is positioned in the socket and is supported to extend above the hub by a ring welded to the outside of the post tube, which ring rests on the top of the hub. A steel sleeve located in the socket near the top thereof and an internal surface formed as an internal surface of the socket at the bottom thereof provide annular surfaces which engage the post tube to stabilize it vertically. A plastic guide bushing fits inside the steel post tube at its top and receives the pneumatic lift cylinder to stabilize and guide it during its extensions and retractions.

Abstract: A wrist or arm wrestling-type game system wherein the player tests or measures his strength by crushing one, two, or more cans, for example aluminum, beer-type cans within a measured time period. The can (or cans) to be crushed is (are) set upon a platform incorporated in the body of the strength testing game device. The player then inserts a coin in a slot (if the device is designed to be coin operated). places his elbow upon a resting pad, grasps a handle and pulls the handle down to drive a mechanical (or hydraulic) system to crush the cans. The handle pulls a cable which is run through a series of pulleys and which is attached (in a first embodiment) to a strongback. The strongback crushes the can against the platform. One of the pulleys through which the cable has been run can be attached to a spring pressure cylinder which measures the force exerted by the player when crushing the can. The placement of the player's elbow upon the elbow pad activates a start switch which in turn activates a timer.
