  • Patent number: 6029849
    Abstract: An easy-to-use apparatus for dispensing individual stamps from an elongated roll of adhesive-covered, paperbacked stamps. The apparatus has a hollow housing within which the roll of stamps is mounted and includes a novel roller mechanism that causes the stamps to be progressively dispensed from the housing with the paperbacking, which has been automatically separated therefrom, being rolled into a lower storage chamber provided in the housing. The roller of the roller mechanism is movable from a first, downward position to an upper engagement position wherein advancement of the paperbacked stamps is accomplished upon a rotational force being imparted to the roller by moving the housing of the device away from the article to which the stamp is to be affixed.

  • Patent number: 4549758
    Abstract: A golf ball retrieving device for use in retrieving golf balls from water hazards. The device includes an articulated retrieving head portion adapted to be moved along the bottom of the water hazard. The retrieving head includes an apertured body portion and pivotally interconnected apertured wing-like elements which are uniquely configured so that as the retrieving head moves along the bottom of the water hazard the water in the hazard will flow past the device in a manner tending to sweep the lost golf ball inwardly along the wing-like elements toward the ball retaining compartments of the body portion.

  • Patent number: 4429758
    Abstract: A motorized hand cart or truck specifically adapted for use by one man in transporting bulky loads over rough and steep terrain of the type typically found in avocado and citrus groves. The cart is designed to be compact, light weight and easily manuverable. An important feature of the device is the provision of a differential gear assembly which permits the drive wheels of the device to rotate at different rates of speed so that positive driving traction can be maintained when the cart is moving over rough and uneven ground. Additionally, the cart is provided with removable lifting forks and the center of gravity of the machine is such that leverage principles can be used to lift loads supported on conventional pallets.
