Abstract: Various devices and methods for hanging tools or other items from a ladder are disclosed. The devices may be incorporated into parts of the ladder itself or be separate add-on devices for use with assorted ladders. The devices include a hinge button hook, a hinge button, a foot hook, and a rail hook.

Abstract: A bucket for a multi-position ladder is disclosed. The bucket provides an area for workspace or for storage of tools or materials. The bucket is configured to be removably attachable at the top of the ladder when in use in the A-frame position or removably attached to the ladder and preferably within the boundaries of the ladder when not in use.

Abstract: The invention relates to systems and methods that provide a user interface for use with an electronic trading system. The interface notifies the user that the price at which he or she may have attempted to trade has changed and presents the user with the opportunity to submit, modify or cancel the trade command. The user may configure the trading system to enable such a notification based on the time span for the price change, the number of increments of the price change, a combination thereof or any other appropriate consideration for protecting against the occurrence of erroneous price entries. Subsequent trade commands, such as those entered by third parties, may be used to validate prices and execute trades at these prices.

Abstract: Systems and methods of trading items on an electronic trading system according to the invention are provided. The embodiments of the invention are based at least in part on a new order type. The new order type is a modification of a conventional good-until-bettered order type. A good-until-bettered bid/offer is received along with instructions that specify a good-until-bettered increment value and/or duration. The good-until-bettered order is maintained in the electronic trading system until a bid/offer that is better by the specified plurality of standard trading increments is received by the electronic trading system and/or remains in the system for the good-until-bettered duration.

Abstract: Pulp prepared from post-consumer used or recycled paper may be employed in the preparation of substrates which are blended with a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor for preparation and fabrication of packaging enclosures or containers. The present invention permits substrates prepared in this fashion to be employed in such applications for which they are rendered highly suitable. Because of the unknown history of the post-consumer recycled materials forming the pulp, the utility of enclosures and/or packages prepared from such pulp is expanded. Vapor phase corrosion inhibitors useful in the present invention preferably include quantities of amine salts, alkali metal molybdates, including ammonium molybdates, or mixtures of molybdates with a second component such as benzotriazole.

Abstract: A resinous film at least partially formulated from a recycled resin and containing a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor. One embodiment of the invention is a single layer film which is formulated from three components. The first component is a recycled resin such as polyethylene, the second component is a fresh resin identical to the first, and the third component is a vapor phase anti-corrosion agent. Multi-layer films are also included. The films emit the anti-corrosion agent over a period of time to thereby protect items encased by the film.

Abstract: A vapor phase corrosion inhibitor-desiccant composite comprising silica gel granules coated with a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor component. The corrosion inhibitor component is selected from a formulation comprising anhydrous molybdates such as ammonium dimolybdate, sodium molybdate and amine molybdates mixed with benzotriazole and sodium nitrate, or from a formulation comprising amine benzoates, amine nitrates and benzotriazole. The composites can be impregnated into foam, extruded with polyolefin films which can additionally be laminated with metallized second film, or encapsulated in an air-permeable container. The corrosion inhibitor formulations have vapor pressures which provide ongoing corrosion protection for susceptible articles situated favorably with respect to the composite.

Abstract: A vapor phase corrosion inhibitor-desiccant formulation comprising silica gel granules coated with a finely divided anhydrous molybdate selected from the group consisting of anhydrous sodium molybdate, anhydrous ammonium dimolybdate, and anhydrous amine molybdates having the structural formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is an aliphatic hydrocarbon having up to 7 carbon atoms, and wherein R.sub.2 is either hydrogen or an aliphatic hydrocarbon having up to 7 carbon atoms with these anhydrous molybdates being provided in admixture with sodium nitrite and benzotriazole. The composite formulations of the present invention have been found to be particularly desirable as a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor when in contact with the environs of metals susceptible to corrosion including, for example, iron, aluminum, copper, and alloys such as alloys of iron, copper, and the like. The vapor phase corrosion inhibitors appear to exhibit improved properties when utilized as a powdered coating upon granular silica gel.
