Patent number: 11478229Abstract: A self-defense device includes a body, a self-defense spray canister within the body, a whistle coupled to the body and the canister, and a light source within the body. The body includes a longitudinal bore and a defense ring extending annularly around the body. The ring includes an upper surface, a lower surface including an abrasive area for scraping a body surface, and an interior receptacle for collecting material scraped from the body surface. The canister is disposed within the longitudinal bore and includes a nozzle for discharging the self-defense fluid. The whistle includes a mouthpiece and a housing coupled to the spray canister. The housing includes a quick release mechanism for removably attaching the housing to the body and maintaining the canister in a fixed position within the housing. The mouthpiece is pivotally connected to the housing enabling pivoting about the housing to provide access to the nozzle.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2021Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Inventor: joseph Casali

Patent number: 9439521Abstract: A connector having a plurality of prongs at each end. The prongs can be inserted into portals, such as those of slat board. The connector can be locked in place by angling the prongs into the portals and connecting two parts of the connector to each other, such as by a male and female connector, which lock and affix in place, requiring a tool to remove. A connector arm can also be attached to the connector, extending outwards, such as at an acute angle, to the connector. On this arm, an extension arm can be further attached. Either the connecting arm or extension arm can have portals for a hook or an integrated hook from which merchandise can be hung. Each of the connecting arm, connector, and extension arm can be reversibly or removably attached one to the other by way of a depressible button on one device extending through a portal of another.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2015Date of Patent: September 13, 2016Assignee: THE DISPLAY CONNECTION, INC.Inventors: Joseph Casali, Stephen Calabrese

Patent number: 7311115Abstract: A collection valve for use in a water reclamation system includes a drain pipe and a collection port assembly. The drain pipe includes an inlet port connectable to a drain line from which gray water is supplied, a collection inlet, and an outlet port. The collection port assembly includes a resilient cap and a collection port disposed to receive gray water flowing into the collection inlet and connectable to a gray water drain line. The resilient cap is operable to (i) close the collection inlet to permit water flow from the inlet port to the outlet port, or (ii) open the collection inlet to permit water flow from the inlet port to the collection port, whereby the resilient cap does not physically obstruct water flow within the drain pipe between he inlet port to the outlet port in either operational condition (i) or (ii).Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2005Date of Patent: December 25, 2007Assignee: Southwest Water Solutions L.L.C.Inventors: Donald Wendell, Joseph A.

Patent number: 7121292Abstract: A method for providing a gray water reclamation system includes connecting one or more gray water sources and one or more black water sources to a main drain line. A collection valve is also connected to the main drain line, the collection valve having (i) an inlet connected to the main drain line down stream from at least one of the black water sources, and (ii) an outlet connectable to either a gray water drain line or a black water drain line. A black water flow sensor is configured to detect water flow from a black water source, wherein the black water flow sensor is operable to transmit a black water event signal upon detecting water flow from the black water source, and wherein the collection valve is operable to connect the outlet to the black water drain line if the black water event signal is received thereby.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2004Date of Patent: October 17, 2006Assignee: Southwest Water Solutions, LLCInventors: Peter G. Aylward, Joseph A Casali, Brandon D. Porter, Robert G. Perkins
