  • Patent number: 6959636
    Abstract: A produce slicer 10 for slicing produce is disclosed. The produce slicer includes a frame (12) defining a cavity (16) having a central axis (22). A plurality of radial cutting blades (20) are disposed in the cavity, wherein each of the radial cutting blades are substantially contained by an imaginary plane, wherein the imaginary planes of the radial cutting blades extend radially outward from the central axis toward the frame. The produce slicer (10) further includes a plurality of ancillary cutting blades (24) extending inward from the frame (12) and into the cavity (16). Each ancillary cutting blade intersects at least one of the radial cutting blades at a location between the frame and the central axis. The ancillary cutting blades may include a first series (50) of blades located substantially perpendicularly to a second series (52) of blades. The radial cutting blades may intersect the ancillary cutting blades at an oblique angle.

  • Patent number: 5125507
    Abstract: An improved golf bag is generally V-shaped and has two rows of openings, each of which is identified to a particular club. The inventive bag arranges the clubs so that those which stand higher are at the rear of the bag. The clubs are therefore presented in an orderly, easily-visible array making the clubs exceptionally easy to select. The bag has soft, generally flat sides which are comfortable for the user when the bag is carried by its shoulder strap. The triangular base gives the bag more stability when stood on its end. The V-shape of the bag and the absence of straps or other obstructions from its apex edge accommodates it well to mounting on hand-pulled golf carts.
