  • Patent number: 11439282
    Abstract: An adjustable hand-held squeegee device with reverse angle head adjustment. An elongated handle can include either a single elongated member or any plurality of members configured in telescoping fashion. A head includes a rotatable base portion supported at a forward end of the handle. A spring biased locking mechanism is integrated into the handle in proximity to the rotatable base and includes a forward projection engaging a first recess of the rotatable base in a first position. Upon retracting the mechanism via a projecting trigger portion, the rotatable base is rotated to align a second circumferentially offset recess so that, and upon releasing the trigger, the squeegee head is oriented in a reverse angular fashion relative to the handle.

  • Patent number: 10588481
    Abstract: A system including a tag for placement within a dishwasher to indicate at least one of a running of a dishwasher run cycle and/or a clean condition of items placed within the dishwasher upon completion of the cycle. A tag body is supported within an interior rack location of the dishwasher so that a surface of the body is visible. A patch of material is formed upon the surface of the tag body and constructed of a dissolvable material. The patch is caused to be dissolved upon activation of a wash cycle of the dishwasher to indicate the clean condition of the items adapted to being placed in the dishwasher.

  • Patent number: 10513046
    Abstract: A guillotine style destruction device for severing one or more data carrying disks including a body having an extending passageway defined therein and a disk containing cartridge or support incorporated or positioned within the body and for supporting the disks in intersecting fashion relative to an interior passageway. A handle supports a blade, and is guidably supported relative to the body for displacing the blade within the passageway for incising the disks. The body includes a disk supporting tray at an upper end and, optionally, an incised disk removal tray, drawer or collection receptacle at a bottom end. The blade can be incorporated into either of a pivoting or vertically descending handle and, upon inserting one or more CD's or disks associated with the upper tray, incises the disk to assist traveling into the lower deposit and removal area.
