Abstract: An improved label sheet assembly and application kit including an optional liner sheet, a carrier strip, and a removably attached label facestock sheet. The application kit further includes a stacked group of tabbed sheets and an alignment guide. The label facestock sheet assembly includes a plurality of cut lines defining a perimeter of a plurality of facestock labels spaced from one another in an offset manner that substantially corresponds to a set of staggered tabs extending outwardly from a stacked group of divider sheets. The carrier strip is defined by a plurality of cuts having substantially the same shape as a portion of the perimeters of the facestock labels, but with slightly smaller dimensions as its respective label. The user may separate the carrier strip from the liner sheet, exposing an adhesive back of the precut labels and place and align the carrier strip across the divider sheets such that the precut labels are placed on the tabs of the divider sheets.

Abstract: This invention is a safe, effective, attractive apparatus for slicing bread products such as bagels, bulkie rolls, and English muffins into two approximately equal sections. The invention is comprised of two primary components. The base unit (1) is essentially a rectangular block with a narrow slot (5) on either side of a cavity (3) that is open at the top and shaped to receive and center a bread product (12). The second component is a unique separate top block (2) that has an inverted slot (6) on the underside to receive a knife so that it is recessed from the underside of the top block. A knife is placed into the slot of the top block, and together they are placed into the chamber of the base unit, with the knife now guided by the slots on either side of the base unit. The top block is used to hold down the bread product to keep it from rotating, while keeping fingers safely away from the knife blade. The user draws the knife back and forth, and is able to cut easily through the bread product.

Abstract: A pressure-extrusion mechanical connector for interconnecting first and second structural elements, and including: a connector housing member coupled or coupleable to one of the first and second structural elements, with an interior volume in the housing member and an egress opening in the housing member communicating with the interior volume therein; an occlusion element arranged for selective translation into the interior volume, to correspondingly occlude at least a portion of the interior volume of the housing member; and a pressure-extrudable material, e.g., an elastomeric thermoplastic polymer, disposed in the interior volume. Pressure is selectively exertable on the pressure-extrudable material by the occlusion element when translated into the interior volume of the housing member, so that upon such translation, the pressure-extrudable material is extruded through the egress opening exteriorly of the housing, to form a gripping or locking extruded member.

Abstract: An apparatus for attaching a jump rope to a pair of handweights which has a C-shaped adapter which accommodates the full range of detachable weights normally used with aerobic handweights such as the "Heavy Hands" handweights of AMF Industries. The C-shaped adapter slips over the threaded extension on one end of each handweight and is held in place by the detachable weight after it is screwed down over the threaded extension. The C-shaped adapter has an upper portion in which a pressed fit bearing accommodates and retains one extreme end of the jump rope and has a lower portion having a circular opening for slidably attaching each C-shaped adapter to one of the respective handweights. A middle portion of the C-shaped adapter holds the upper and lower portions of the C-shaped adapter in a parallel relationship to one another and the dimensions of the C-shaped adapter are such that its three portions clear the depth and diameter of each of the range of detachable weights.
