Abstract: A device for restricting the flow through a curb inlet opening of a street storm drain by positioning a face plate thereover with a plurality of flow apertures therethrough of limited size. The face plate is securable to the drain by a mounting apparatus including one or more mounting brackets along with an engagement device for securing the mounting brackets with respect to the drain and the face plate for mounting the face plate extending over the curb inlet opening. Mounting brackets include alternatively teeth for engaging mated teeth on the rear of the face plate and storm drain engaging teeth also. Edges of the face plate can be chamfered for protection and a protective rim can extend upwardly around the securement apertures for protection thereof.

Abstract: A fastener for securing first and second members together at opposing respective flat surfaces thereof, whereby at the point of joining the first member has an aperture concentric with an aperture of the second member, the fastener comprising first and second tubular portions concentric with one another, whereby the second tubular portion is of reduced outside diameter relative to the first tubular portion, a circular flange forming a transverse interior end of the first tubular portion, an interior end of the second tubular portion being rigidly joined to the circular flange, at least one resilient arm being formed in and extending from a sidewall of each one of the first and second tubular portions toward the flange, the at least one resilient arm of each portions each having a free end including a retaining end surface adapted for having close proximity to a side portion surrounding the respective apertures of the first and second members.

Abstract: A clip for securing a picket cap to a profile of a picket fence consists of a U-shaped thin piece of stainless steel, or other suitable material, for frictionally fitting onto opposing end tabs protruding from a bottom portion of the picket cap. A backface of the picket clip has a barb-like portion formed thereon, and bent into an interior portion thereof for permitting the clip to be pushed onto one of the opposing tabs of the picket cap, but preventing the removal of the clip therefrom by digging into the material of an inside wall portion of the associated tab if an attempt is made to remove the clip from the associated tab. One such clip is installed on the two opposing tabs.
