Abstract: A carousel shoe cabinet for storing shoes in an organized manner. The carousel shoe cabinet includes a cabinet with an upper compartment therein. The front of the cabinet has an opening into the upper compartment. A carousel assembly is provided in upper compartment. The carousel assembly has generally circular spaced apart upper and lower rings, and an elongate shaft extending between the upper and lower rings. The upper and lower rings each have a center hub and plurality of radial spokes extending radially between the center hub and the respective ring. An upper end of the elongate shaft is coupled to the center hub of the upper ring. A lower end of the elongate shaft is rotatably mounted to the center hub of the lower ring to permit free rotation of the elongate shaft about the longitudinal axis of the elongate shaft. A plurality of hanger assemblies are hung on the upper ring.

Abstract: A metal cutting tool assembly (1) having an automatically adjustable chipbreaker (23) is provided that comprises a cutting insert (11) for cutting a relatively rotating workpiece, a holder (3) for holding the insert (11), an insert driver (5) for applying a cutting force between the insert (11) and the workpiece, a chipbreaker (23) having a surface (27) that is effective in breaking chips (55, 56) of different thicknesses when positioned at different distances from the cutting edge (19) of the insert (11), and a mounting mechanism (30) for movably mounting the chipbreaker (23) onto the holder (3). The mounting mechanism (30) includes a spring (50) for automatically adjusting the distance between the chipbreaking surface (27) of the chipbreaker (23) and the cutting edge (19) of the insert (11) in response to the forces applied to the chipbreaker (23) by the metal chips (55, 56) that result from the cutting operation.

Abstract: The present invention constitutes a device for securing and restraining intravenous tubing to prevent dislodgment of a venipuncture device. A secure strap according to the present invention utilizes hook and loop fasteners and restrains the movement of a Y injection placed on the intravenous line.
