Patent number: 10098487Abstract: A wine glass constructed from molded plastic includes an upper body defining an upwardly narrowed flume for concentrating the wine bouquet, in combination with a contoured lower base defining an annular moat surrounding a central punt for enhanced visual inspection of the wine. In addition, the upper body further includes a notched indent at an outboard side thereof forming a shelf for facilitated fingertip grasping and manipulation of the assembled glass. In one form, the upper body and lower base of the wine glass are provided as separate modules adapted for assembly to form the wine glass, and disassembly for respective compact stacking. In another form, the wine glass has a one-piece construction adapted for compact stacking by nested reception of the upwardly narrowed flume partially into the underside of the lower base of an overlying glass in the stack.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2011Date of Patent: October 16, 2018Assignee: govino, LLCInventors: Boyd I. Willat, Joseph T. Perrulli, Amber R. Willat, Paul H. Velick, Gary D. Delgado

Patent number: 8069536Abstract: A conformable pod and related method of production are provided, wherein the pod defines a soft structure adapted for deformation in response to minimal pressure applied manually, i.e., by contact with some portion of the body, and for retaining a deformed configuration substantially in the absence of continued application of manual pressure. The pod includes a viscous and tacky gel material encased within a closed chamber defined at least in part by a relatively thin and easily deformed outer skin providing minimal deformation resistance. In a preferred form, the encased gel material is a coagulated or partially coagulated gel such as a silicone-based gel material adapted for deformation in response to minimal applied manual pressure, and for substantially pressureless retention of the as-deformed shape, followed by relatively slow return (at least two seconds or more) to an initial nondeformed shape upon manual release of the pod.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2005Date of Patent: December 6, 2011Assignee: Willat Ergonomic Technologies, LLCInventors: Boyd I.

Patent number: 7159329Abstract: A picture hanging tool is provided for facilitated marking of a selected point on a wall or the like for subsequent installation of a fastener used for hanging a picture or other object from the wall. The tool includes an upper handle section adapted for manual grasping, and a lower support or base section having a hook or the like for temporarily supporting the object for movement over the wall surface to a selected precision mounting location. When the desired mounting location is obtained, an actuator mechanism including an actuator pin exposed on the upper handle section is operable to displace a spring-loaded marking element into engagement with the wall surface at the desired point for subsequent fastener installation. The tool is then removed from the wall, the fastener installed at the marked point, and the object hung from the installed fastener.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2005Date of Patent: January 9, 2007Inventors: George M. Dolenz, Boyd I. Willat, Gary D. Delgado
