Abstract: The foldable carrier comprises first elongate flexible layers that has a first thickness with longitudinal opposite side edges. A second elongate layer is made of a porous soft material that has a second thickness and is secured to the first elongate flexible layer. The second thickness is substantially greater than the first thickness. A first stretcher side section is secured to a first carrier layer and is pivotally attached to one of the side edges of the first elongate flexible layer. The first stretcher side section is movable between an expanded position and a folded position so that the first carrier layer is movable towards the first elongate flexible layer to face the first elongate flexible layer when the first stretcher side section is in the folded position. The first elongate layer and the first carrier layer form a continuous uninterrupted surface attached to the second elongate flexible layer and the first stretcher side section.

Abstract: The present invention is a blade 1 for a club shaft including a blade 1 comprising different guiding elements such as a ball rolling line 7 that guides the ball to at least one aperture 16 or between two different apertures 16, 17 that make it easier, when the ball is in the aperture to drive, dribble, cover and shoot. The apertures 16, 17 provide for a lower air resistance and are optimal for shooting because the ball is always on the right spot on the club. This results in faster and more powerful shots. The blade 1 also provides for a defensive technical feature through the blocking protrusion 14 which gives the club shaft and the blade the right height above a support layer when the club is laid down thereon for covering a shot. Finally, the blade 1 also provides for the possibility of being used for advertising or team display since the apertures 16, 17 can be provided with a resilient advertising material such a rubber based sheet material.

Abstract: A clamp is provided for securely holding rope, cable and similar material in a fixed position, comprising:(a) first and second clamping members of which at least one is movable towards and away from the other between clamping and releasing positions in a swinging movement about a pivot point;(b) the first clamping member having an opening therethrough for reception of a length of rope material to be held in a fixed position and having side walls on opposite sides thereof;(c) the length of rope material engaging the side wall on one side of the opening in the first clamping member;(d) the second clamping member having a clamping extension projecting into the opening through the first clamping member when the first and second clamping members are in the clamping position, and spaced away from the opening when the members are in the releasing position;(e) the extension when the second clamping member is in the clamping position being spaced from the side wall of the opening engaging the length of rope material a
