  • Publication number: 20150168808
    Abstract: A viewfinder for a cellular telephone has a planar base having an upper and a lower surface, a pin affixed in the lower surface of the planar base, the pin having an axis extending substantially at a right angle to the plane of the base, the pin having a diameter and a length to fit in an audio port of a cellular telephone, a planar vertical element joined at substantially a right angle to one end of the planar base, the vertical element extending in the same direction as the axis of the pin, and a viewport affixed to the upper surface of the planar base, the viewport having a central axis extending substantially parallel to the upper surface of the planar base, the axis oriented in a direction at a right angle to the plane of the planar vertical element.

  • Patent number: 5617586
    Abstract: A hose having a multicolored decoration and method for making in which the decoration appears to be a tattoo on the skin of the wearer under the hose. The illusion is created by screen printing water based acrylic inks onto the hose wherein the properties of the ink, particularly the viscosity and surface tension, is selected in operable combination with the selected denier and modification number of the fiber of the fabric to maximize the reflectivity and transmissivity of the decorated fabric. Each color is screen printed in succession with the other colors. Registration between areas of the design is maintained by steps of the method including the step of preshrinking the hose and by using a novel rack to load the hose onto a form having an adhesive coating.
