Abstract: A preferred embodiment of a water conditioner dispensing apparatus is disclosed for use with a toilet having a bowl, a bowl supply pipe, and a filler tube which emits a jet of bowl makeup water into the bowl supply pipe to refill the bowl after flushing. The apparatus has a conditioner container with a reservoir for holding liquid conditioner. A wick extends from the container reservoir for placement in a jet of bowl makeup water so that liquid conditioner is dispensed through the bowl supply pipe into the toilet bowl to selectively treat only the bowl water and not the flush water stored in the tank.

Abstract: An isokinetic multidirectional exerciser utilizes an articulated boom mounted to a supporting base for pivotal movement relative to the base. The articulated boom preferably uses two arms which are pivotally connected. Relative movement between the boom arms and the base is individually resisted by fluid devices operatively connected between the members that move relative to one another during use of the exerciser. Each fluid device includes a resistive closed fluid path that is adjustable to vary the range of resistance that will be encountered during such movement. Provision is made for independent adjustment of resistance in opposite directions of movement of the exerciser members. This is accomplished by use of opposed check valves having individual bypass paths and flow control valves.

Abstract: A portable animal hospital table comprising a plastic bed surface disposed on an upper frame, a radiation shielding layer positioned below said plastic bed surface and carried by said upper frame, a base frame supported on rolling means, pivotally mounted linkage means operatively connecting said upper frame and said base frame, a pressure cylinder and piston mounted on said base frame and pivotally connected to said linkage means, and means for actuating said pressure cylinder and piston.
