Abstract: An improved method of creating a waterproof seal for post tension cable systems roughens and decontaminates the cable's stressing end pocket with a diamond bladed reaming tool and closes the newly formed cavity with epoxy resin and a precasted plug made of non-shrink grout. The method includes pouring a concrete slab around an anchor and a pocket former through which a cable passes and is held by wedges. After the pocket former is removed and the cable is stressed, the cable is cut and a grease cap is applied. The system ensures that the cable is properly cut, the grease cap is properly seated, the inside of the pocket is roughened, and the seal at the cable's stressing end is waterproof. Furthermore, the invention aids in removing previously grouted pockets when cable remediation is needed and closing the pocket with a precasted plug when cable remediation is completed.

Abstract: A stroller including two rear legs, two arms, wherein a first one of the arms is pivotally connected to a first one of the rear legs by a first latch mechanism and a second one of the arms is pivotally connected to a second one of the rear legs by a second latch mechanism, each of the latch mechanisms being adapted to releasably lock an associated one of the arms in a position with respect to an associated one of the rear legs, a handlebar portion having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the handlebar portion is pivotally connected to a first one of the arms and the second end of the handlebar portion is pivotally connected to a second one of the arms, and a single release mechanism positioned on the handlebar portion, wherein the single release mechanism is connected to each of the first and second latch mechanisms and is adapted to release the first and second latch mechanisms to allow pivotal movement of the arms relative to the rear legs.

Abstract: A variable capacity binder including an outer cover and a binding mechanism including a plurality of spaced rings, each ring being shaped to be received through a hole of a piece of paper to couple the paper to the binding mechanism. Each ring is non-symmetrical with respect to at least one axis and has a longitudinal axis. The binding mechanism is pivotally coupled to the cover such that the longitudinal axis of each ring can be pivoted relative to the spine.
