  • Patent number: 7338281
    Abstract: A liquid fuel lamp for burning fuel comprises a plurality of wicks. The lamp has a fuel tank for initially receiving the liquid fuel, a plurality of reservoirs, each holding a wick, and at least one conduit. The conduit is in fluid communication with at least one respective reservoir and the fuel tank, and carries the liquid fuel by way of gravitational force to the reservoir, with which the reservoir forms a housing for the wick. Thus, fuel may distributed to all reservoirs and wicks from a central tank into which fuel is deposited.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7310825
    Abstract: In a garment element, for example a cuff for a sleeve, an access opening is defined between an overlap section extending between two attachment sections, the overlap section being formed of interleaving fabric ends suitably stiffened to provide a self-sealing function in both a use mode in which a body member extends there through and a non-use mode with the opening closed.

  • Patent number: 7107625
    Abstract: A hat with enclosure for an insect screen has a generally planar top section and at least a first fabric member. The top section has a top edge and the first fabric member has a first edge and a second free edge. The first edge is connected to a portion of the top edge. The second edge is adjacent another portion of the top edge to define a closable opening there between. The fabric member and the top section define an enclosure that covers substantially entirely the top section. The insect screen has a portion connectable to either the top section or the fabric member adjacent the closable opening and is selectively insertable into the enclosure and deployable therefrom to cover a user's head. Preferably, the top section is partially covered by a second fabric member that also forms the enclosure.
