Abstract: An adjustable and convertible bed frame to wall mount headboard manufactured with half of a resealable fastening system attached that allows for the removal of a corresponding shaped cushion case cover assembly with the complimentary half of the resealable fastening system attached that when fastened together creates a headboard assembly with reusable and replaceable cushion case cover assembly.

Abstract: Methods of use for a decorative reusable and replaceable pillow case-cover assembly or cushion case-cover assembly. Decorative items can come in many forms including works of art, plastic flowers and pillows. What they all have in common is their functional use: that they are visually pleasing to look at. And, conversely, when they are no longer pleasing to look at the user can replace them with another decorative item, then back again as they desire.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pressure regulating valve for regulating pressure in a high-pressure fuel accumulator for an internal combustion engine, comprising a valve piston (5) accommodated axially displaceably in a bore (1) in a valve housing (2), acting on a valve closing member (3) in the direction of a valve seat (4), said valve piston being connected at the end thereof facing away from the valve seat (4) to an armature (6) of a magnetic assembly (7) for actuating the pressure regulating valve, wherein the armature (6) is accommodated in an armature chamber (8) and the valve closing member (3) is accommodated in a valve chamber (9). According to the invention, the valve chamber (9) and the armature chamber (8) are hydraulically connected via at least one groove (10) and/or bore (11) formed in the valve housing (2), valve piston (5) and/or in the armature (6), as well as at least one choke point (12).

Abstract: A weighted base assembly with casters and/or glides and an attached column assembly to create a furniture base assembly (FBA) that accepts and holds a leg of the non-free standing furniture to create an independent stable support system for that piece of furniture so that it becomes free standing, and also moveable while being held by the FBA(s).

Abstract: A reusable and replaceable pillow case cover or cushion case cover manufactured with half of a resealable fastening system attached that can be installed and removed from a correspondingly shaped constructed pillow case or cushion case manufactured with the complimentary half of the resealable fastening system attached that when fastened together creates a pillow case cover assembly or cushion case cover assembly. A pillow or cushion is inserted into the pillow case or cushion case to create a pillow with pillow case cover assembly, or cushion with cushion case cover assembly.

Abstract: A masonry block that is produced from a workpiece that is split in a block splitting assembly which uses any of a variety of projections to supplement or replace the action of the splitting blade in splitting and dressing the workpiece. The resulting masonry block has features that provide the masonry block with a weathered appearance.

Abstract: Molds and processes that permit high-speed, mass production of retaining wall blocks having patterned or other processed front faces, as well as retaining wall blocks formed by such processes. The invention permits the front face of the block to be impressed with a pattern or otherwise directly processed, to allow the formation of pre-determined block front faces, while at the same time facilitating high-speed, high-volume production of blocks. Pre-determined front faces can include front faces having pre-determined patterns and textures, front faces having pre-determined shapes, front faces made from different material(s) than the remainder of the block, and combinations thereof.

Abstract: A single serving of toothpaste that is encapsulated in any single serve form, allowing the user to have a fresh, germ free serving of toothpaste each time they brush their teeth.

Abstract: A masonry block that is produced from a workpiece that is split in a block splitting assembly which uses any of a variety of projections to supplement or replace the action of the splitting blade in splitting and dressing the workpiece. The resulting masonry block has features that provide the masonry block with a weathered appearance.

Abstract: A masonry block that is produced from a workpiece that is split in a block splitting assembly which uses engagement surfaces that are enhanced with, for example, alternating ridges and valleys, preferably in combination with workpiece-engaging projections, to supplement or replace the action of the splitting blade in splitting and dressing the workpiece.

Abstract: A process and equipment for producing multi-color concrete products, including architectural concrete blocks, concrete bricks, modular concrete products that are suitable for use in landscaping applications, such as retaining wall blocks, concrete pavers, and concrete slabs. The invention includes a spray mechanism that sprays liquid pigment onto concrete discharged from a hopper. The concrete then proceeds to a blending mechanism which blends the pigment into the concrete to produce a multi-color concrete blend. The concrete blend is then used to produce multi-colored concrete products.
