  • Multi-layer coating system including a hydroxyl modified polyurethane dispersion binder
    Patent number: 7875355
    Abstract: A multi-layer coating system comprising a hydroxyl-functional polyurethane dispersion is provided. The hydroxyl-functional polyurethane comprises the reaction product of a pre-polymer intermediate formed from the reaction of an isocyanate with an active hydrogen containing compound, such as a polyester polyol, with a compound having at least two amine groups and one hydroxyl group, such as a diamino alcohol. In addition, a waterborne basecoat composition is provided having improved rheology and pattern control. Such a waterborne basecoat composition comprises a hydroxyl-functional polyurethane dispersion an acrylic emulsion resin, a water-reducible polyester resin, and a cellulose ester.

  • Tamper evident seal
    Patent number: 4660732
    Abstract: A tamper evident container (10) having an opening (15) to allow access to the container contents. Undulations (16) are formed in the rim (14), and a seal (18) is glued across the opening to cause destruction of the seal in gaining access to the container contents. A replica (24) is illustrated on the bottle label for comparison to the seal (18) on the bottle for assurance the container has not been opened.

  • Friction type exercising device with improved friction setting indicator
    Patent number: 4294446
    Abstract: An exercise device which can be fixed to a support and through which a rope is pulled against the force of frictional engagement within the exercise device. The resistive force against the pull is determined by the number of turns of the rope about a center shaft in the exercise device. The force is indicated by an improved indicator which moves longitudinally in the device as the number of turns is changed and which can be viewed for determining the frictional force.
