Abstract: A crab trap having a tapered body member of either circular or elliptical cross section, the crab trap having a first ingress end and a second egress end, the first ingress end having a cover removably secured thereto having a passageway for permitting entrance into the crab trap of crabs, but preventing the egress of crabs from the crab trap through the front cover, the egress end of the crab trap being open and dimensioned so as to permit undersized crabs to exit the crab trap under their own mobility or to be flushed from the crab trap when the crab trap is retrieved. The crab trap also has both a buoyancy member and a stability member to insure that the crab trap orients itself correctly on the ocean bed or bay bed, whether or not it is dropped or tossed into the water.

Abstract: There is provided a miniaturized document shredding device having engaging dual frictional conveyor rollers rotatably mounted within an enclosure. Fixed cutting blades are spaced across the width of the rollers and protrude through slits within the rollers to present cutting edges at the point of engagement of the rollers. In one embodiment these blades are mounted to the enclosure and protrude through the rollers, and in a second embodiment are mounted to the roller shafts between roller segments. With this arrangement, documents dropped through the top opening in the enclosure are picked up by the frictional rollers and conveyed by the rollers past the cutting blades to produce a shredded product.
