Abstract: A retractable motorcycle covering system for protecting a motorcycle from various weather conditions every place the user operates the motorcycle without reducing storage space on the motorcycle. The inventive device includes a storage structure, a mounting bracket securing the storage structure to the front of a motorcycle, a spring coil and a shaft secured within the storage structure, and a cover sheet secured to the shaft retracting the cover sheet into the storage container.

Abstract: An apparatus for taping work surfaces without kneeling, stooping, or bending. The apparatus is comprised of a carriage body having wheels and a push handle for imparting locomotion thereto. The push handle is located at a height sufficient for allowing a user to tape a surface from an upright walking position. The carriage body mounts a tape dispenser coupled to a tape registering device on its front surface. A roll of tape is mounted in the tape dispenser, and the tape is first fed manually to the tape registering device, which registers the tape upon a work surface. Upon firm registration, the apparatus is wheeled forward, and the tape is automatically unrolled, and applied to the work surface, until the desired amount of tape is applied. The tape dispenser and tape registering device can be uncoupled as a unit, and selectively positioned in a different geometric plane, for taping a new work surface.

Abstract: A broom head for channeling spreadable material, such as sand and debris. This broom head is represented by a manual push broom embodiment and an embodiment for adaption to a motorized vehicle. In both embodiments, the arms of the broom converge at a junction to form an interior angle. The bristles bordering along this interior angle form a leading edge which channels any spreadable material toward the junction of the angle. The manual push broom embodiment adopts a V-shaped structure, thereby having a single interior angle, while the motorized embodiment adopts an X-shaped structure and thereby has at least two interior angles. The channeling ability of this broom head is especially useful for paving and road work, where sand must be channeled into cracks for purposes of repair.
