  • Patent number: 4923341
    Abstract: Disclosed is portable drill guide apparatus for a hand held drill. The apparatus includes a base having an upper surface, a flat bottom surface and an annular opening therethrough, the opening having an axis. A support post extends from the base to one side of the opening and is perpendicular to the base bottom surface, the post having a longitudinally extending bore. A shot extends longitudinally in the side of the post and is parallel to the axis thereof. A drill chuck assembly comprises a bar complementary in cross-sectional shape to the bore and a chuck support. The support extends outwardly from the bar and has a portion adapted to move within the slot. The chuck support further includes a shaft journalled therein, the shaft having an upper end and a lower end with a drill chuck being operatively connected to the lower end over the base opening.

  • Patent number: 4443909
    Abstract: An apparatus for cleaning a carpet which includes two reservoirs mounted on a frame over the rear wheels of a truck to store a supply of cleaning fluid which is heated in a heat exchanger is disclosed. The reservoirs reduce the sloshing of fluid when the truck is in motion. Pivot flanges are used to balance the reservoirs on the frame to provide effective transfer of the apparatus from one truck to another. The truck engine generates heat energy which is convectively transferred to the engine coolant fluid which is subsequently cycled through the heat exchanger. The cleaning fluid is also transported to the heat exchanger where heat transfer takes place between the cycling engine coolant fluid and the cleaning fluid. The cleaning fluid is heated to a higher temperature condition prior to being sprayed on and into the rug while the engine coolant fluid is cooled prior to being recycled through the engine.
