Abstract: This invention relates generally to garment hangers and particularly to a shoulder and trouser support attachment for use with coat hangers of the conventional bent wire type and that is intended as a throw away device along with the wire hanger after the garments have been removed therefrom.

Abstract: A hand held electric caulking gun wherein a caulk-driving piston is forced through the caulk-retaining receptacle of the gun in a manner to force caulking from the gun with considerable force and at a continuous easy-to-control flow. The gun includes a clutch for drivably disengaging the drive source from the piston should the reacting force against the caulk driving end of the piston exceed a predetermined value and a releasing device for allowing the piston to be disengaged of its drive linkage for allowing manual movement of the piston through the gun.

Abstract: An electrically heated mold for making test specimens of concrete. The mold has two substantially identical mold halves pivotally mounted to each other and electric heating units selectively operated in response to the temperature variations in the concrete of the main structure. Each mold half has a heat transferring wall member which has a mold surface and an outer surface against which one of the heating units is placed. The mold is insulated and has a number of additional features designed to facilitate manufacture and operation of the mold as well as to increase its working life.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to electrical resistors and particularly to a resistor disk and contact assembly wherein by reason of the structure of the disk, the radial resistance of the disk is randomly varied to produce a random-like resistance pattern of a predetermined configuration as the disk is rotated between fixed engaging contacts.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to ornamental lighting controls and particularly to a lighting control for Christmas tree lighting having preferably at least four duty cycle outputs and wherein the duty cycle pattern of each output differs, with respect to a predetermined time interval, from the duty cycle pattern of each of the other outputs of the control thereby to produce, in a plurality of ornamental lighting strings respectively connected to the outputs of the control, a coordinated condition of continuously changing light intensities between strings and that occur in predetermined sequential time differing order to result in an overall lighting effect totally unobtainable by any other form of light controlling apparatus.

Abstract: Manufacturing apparatus for fabricating a disposable crust rolling form wherein crust dough, after being placed within the form, may be rolled therein into the shape of the form and thickness of the finished crust.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to Christmas tree lighting and particularly to a series string of Christmas tree lights wherein the series loop may be temporarily opened by separating the plug connector to permit untangling of the string and thereafter the loop restored for operatively connecting with a power source by again plugging together the halves of the connector.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to ornamental lighting controls and particularly to a lighting control for Christmas tree lighting having preferably at least four duty cycle outputs and wherein the duty cycle patern of each output differs, with respect to a predetermined time interval, from the duty cycle patern of each of the other outputs of the control thereby to produce, in a plurality of ornamental lighting strings respectively connected to the outputs of the control, a coordinated condition of continuously changing light intensities between strings and that occur in predetermined sequential time differing order to result in an overall lighting effect totally unobtainable by any other form of light controlling apparatus.

Abstract: This invention relates to a package of prepared piecrust dough that may be required to remain within its package for relatively long periods of time and within which thereafter the dough may be rolled into piecrust form while still in its packaging receptacle.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to caulking apparatus and particularly to a caulking gun attachment for an electric hand drill that is intended for securing to the drill body and drivably connected therewith whereafter upon operation of the drill, a caulk driving piston is forced through the caulk retaining receptacle of the gun in a manner to force caulking from the gun with considerable force and at a continuous and easy-to-control flow. Further, the gun includes a slipping clutch and an adjustment for allowing manual adjustment of the slipping point of the clutch thereby to selectively regulate the pressure and flow rate of the caulk being dispensed. Additionally, the gun includes a quick disengagement mechanism for freeing the piston from the drive train of the mechanism to allow the caulk driving piston to be manually moved in either direction through the gun.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to caulking devices and particularly to a caulking gun attachment for an electric hand drill that includes apparatus for securing the gun to the drill and drivably connect the drill therewith whereafter upon operation of the drill a caulk-driving piston is forced through the caulk retaining receptacle of the gun in a manner to force caulking from the gun with considerable force and at a continuous easy to control flow yet including clutch for drivably disengaging the piston from the drill should a reacting force upon the piston exceed a predetermined valve. The gun further includes an arrangement for releasing the piston of its driving linkage to allow manual movement of the piston.

Abstract: A Christmas tree lighting control wherein predetermined voltage changes and changes in the duty cycle of the A-C source is applied individually and in a predetermined sequential order to all the lights of a tree to produce a twinkling and shimmering effect heretofore unobtainable by any form or combination of conventional flasher apparatus.
