Abstract: A laundry treating appliance for treating laundry items according to an automatic cycle of operation can include a cabinet defining an interior and having an access opening providing access to the interior. A tub can be located within the interior and can at least partially define a liquid chamber. A drum is rotatably mounted within the liquid chamber and at least partially defines a treating chamber. A clothes mover is located within the treating chamber and rotatable about a vertical axis. The clothes mover can include a base and a barrel.

Abstract: A protector for electrical extension cords which are connected together by their conventional male and female members, the protector preventing unintentional disjoinder. A pair of podlike shells mate along first and second longitudinal edges, hinged on the first, with closure means mounted on the second longitudinal edge. Two pairs of prongs are integrally formed on and extend from the interior wall of one of the shells, each pair located proximate a corresponding one of distal ends of the protector. A hook is formed on each of the prongs. A pair of stretchable bands engage corresponding hooks in each pair of prongs and the cords ' plugs are introduced through them, and are joined together. They are rotated 180.degree. and the shells are closed upon one another, so that the bands twisted and entwined about the plugs urge them together. An aperture is formed in each of the distal ends of the closed protector to accomodate disposition of the cords.

Abstract: An aerosol dispenser including a nozzle chamber for holding fluid to be dispensed and a diaphragm forming at least a portion of the chamber and having an aerosol dispensing nozzle disposed therein. The chamber includes a nozzle region proximate the nozzle and a larger reservoir region interconnected to the nozzle region. There is a restrictive passage for introducing fluid from the reservoir region to the nozzle region and restricting backflow from the nozzle region to the reservoir region. A driver, typically a piezoelectric bender, is provided to drive fluid from the reservoir region to the nozzle region and from the nozzle region through the nozzle to create an aerosol spray.
