Publication number: 20050096575Abstract: A wrist brace of the present invention for supporting a wrist of the wearer. The wrist brace includes a sheet of flexible material that overlies and supports a wearer's wrist. Defined in the sheet is an opening between a pair of lateral edges, wherein the opening is sized to accommodate a thumb of a wearer. A thumb strap of the wrist brace is defined by a break extending between a distal edge of the sheet of material and the thumb opening. A fastener on one end of the thumb strap allows the thumb strap to be extended between a thumb and index finger so as to secure the wrist brace. Optionally, the thumb opening can have a non-circular shape, such as a triangular shape, with an axis extending in the proximal-distal direction when the wrist brace is worn to promote a better fit around a base of the thumb.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 4, 2003Publication date: May 5, 2005Inventor: Edward Weaver

Patent number: 4366252Abstract: A fluorine-free glass composition is disclosed especially adapted for forming the faceplate of a cathode ray tube such as a television tube. The glass is silica based and includes a fluorine-free flux and an X-ray absorber which may comprise lead oxide, barium oxide, strontium oxide, and mixtures thereof. Optionally, the glass may contain still other oxides to impart desired physical properties. The absence of fluorine avoids the usual problems of that ingredient in melting and processing the glass. In addition, the resultant glass as a faceplate provides improved protection to a viewer of a cathode ray tube by excellent absorption of X-rays.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 1980Date of Patent: December 28, 1982Assignee: Owens-Illinois, Inc.Inventor: Edward A.
