Abstract: There is provided a cover for umbrellas and the like. The assembly includes a nearly cylindrical cover made of a material or materials that can have at least one waterproof layer. The cover is closed at one end to itself or to the article to which it is permanently attached. The opposite end of the cover is open and is bound to a rigid to semi-rigid often-deformable ring-like structure. When not in use or dormant, the cover is considered inside out which is the side that is often most waterproof and it will lay in approximation to the article to which it is attached. When the cover is employed, the ring is disposed over the article and the cover's closed end and urged along the article to the end of said cover. Thusly, the cover is inverted exposing its dry, clean exterior.

Abstract: An exercise platform for low-impact exercises that is of a resilient shell that can contain components, such as liquids, foams, pellets, solids, and gases, but more typically air. This filled shell gives the desired resistance and passivity to the exercise platform and provides a surface that produces low to almost no impact when, jogging, bouncing, etcetera. The platform can have a rigid base or frame with removable or collapsible legs, and/or casters used for height adjustment and mobility. Slots, hooks, or other means can join multiple platforms to form a larger surface for reclined exercises. The platform and/or its frame also has one or more inlets for rigid vertical members that terminate as handle bars or an overhead bar(s) for auxiliary upper body exercise equipment. A decorative cover transforms the exercise platform into furniture when not in use.

Abstract: There is provided a child car seat assembly for installation on an automobile seat using the seat belt provided with the automobile seat. The assembly includes a child seat having a front, a back, a first side and a second side, such that when a child is seated in the child seat the child faces the front of the child seat. Also included is a first side panel adjacent to the first side of the child seat, the first side panel having means for attaching the child car seat assembly to the automobile seat using the seat belt, such that when the seat belt is tightened as much as possible, the child seat is oriented at a right angle to the automobile seat. The invention also concerns installation of a child car seat assembly on an automobile seat using a hook connected to the child car seat assembly, the length of the connection between the hook and the child car seat assembly being adjustable.
