Abstract: A method for providing additional tractionability to a vehicle tire (20) for mitigating slippery road conditions such as ice and snow. The main embodiment for the main embodiment uses three cleats (26) per tire (20) and a cleat hub (28). Chain welts (32) and adjustable bungee cords (30) complete the install to form a contiguous unit gripping around the perimeter of the tire (20). All of the individual parts are lightweight for easy distribution to the tires (20) needing traction. They are easy to install. They are quick to install at roughly five minutes per tire (20). They are also both easy and quick to dismantle. Being solid bodied members, they are easy to keep clean by quickly hosing them down and they stack up for easy storage.

Abstract: A combination of two devices providing a method for ascertaining that the parking brakes of a vehicle are applied whenever the driver leaves the driver's seat and that the driver is always wearing their seat belt whenever the vehicle is rolling. One embodiment of a seat belt restrictor assembly (40) interconnected by means of electronic communication circuit (56) to a choice of one of the many embodiments of the parking brake restrictor assemblies (60, 74, 90, 100) presented here, whereby, the driver cannot disengage the parking brakes until the seat belt is fastened, and the driver cannot unfasten the seat belt until the parking brakes are engaged. Other important safety and security functions may also be enforced by connecting to these two devices, such as, password technology which allows control over who drives the vehicle, battery-drain monitoring, and wireless cell-phone and text scrambling.

Abstract: A convenient method for having extra pockets wherever one feels the need for one, that affix to any surface desired, so as to enhance the convenience of items at hand. Such method that would allow an advertising medium, whereby messages can be printed on them. Such method that would become a fashion accessory, when done in a fashion conscious and esthetic way.

Abstract: The Ladder Safety Matt Invention enhances ladder safety by using slip-resistant matts for both the bottom feet of the ladder (1) and at the area of contact to the building's surface (5) at the top. These light weight rubber products are an inexpensive way to help keep the ladder in a desired position. If on grass, earth or sand, stakes may be driven though the matt's (1) holes (2) to keep it in position. If on asphalt, concrete or wood the rubber material of the matt (1) provides traction. An extension ladder (3) would have slip-proof rubber boots (4) at the top end to both provide traction and protect the surface being leaned on. Also, elevated rubber matts (5) do the work of keeping the ladder in place by providing frictional holding power against the top surface while at the same time, providing a slip-proof area for climbing onto and back down from the surface to the ladder.

Abstract: The Highway Nose For Fuel Economy increases a vehicles aerodynamics during highway speeds. The arrow, cone or nose shape that it forms at the front of the vehicle expands outward where space is not an issue and yet will contract back in against the vehicle when maneuverability is needed, as in city driving and when parked. Using any variety of materials, preferably lightweight and firm enough to withstand the wind velocity of highway speeds and using a means (7) for protracting the device belonging to a group comprising compressed air, hydraulics, electrical or even just manually. As well, it can be an airbag, which fills up with compressed air and forms a sort of airplane nose shape or it could be like a modified umbrella-like contraption. So, as soon as the driver gets on the highway, he flips a switch, and out it comes and then, when he gets off the highway, he flips the switch and it retracts back up against the bumper.

Abstract: An improved method for providing additional traction to vehicles during icy and snowy conditions. Especially in the Rocky Mountain states, where trucks are required to carry chains during the winter season, the Traction Pad (#6)provides a simpler and quicker alternative. The Traction Pads (#6) stack upon each other, are light-weight, and easily set upon the tires (#1), as they are shaped to the same contour as the tires(#1). Then, they are fastened to the belt (#3) that is already installed at the rim (#2), between the dual tire assembly (#1). The fasteners (5) connect to the belt (3) and to the fastening ring(4) on the traction pad. The Traction Pad s (#6) ease of install and removal make them ideal in those situations, in wintery weather, on the side of a highway, where the sooner the truck-driver can get back in the warmth and safety of his/her cab, the better.

Abstract: The Highway Nose is a protective assembly of various parts for converting head-on collisions into side-swipes consisting of a roller (4) at the front, and conveyors (3) just behind and on both sides, that are set on shock-absorbers (6) and the conveyors are hinged (2) onto a connector plate (5) which in turn is hinged (13) to a see-saw fulcrum (12) and equipped with shock absorbers (11) as well allowing the entire assembly to flex a bit to one side or the other.

Abstract: This pizza server(10) along with it's outer sleeve(22), provide a neater and more comfortable means of enjoying this fun food, as well as for it to stay warmer longer thanks to the outer sleeve(22) that slips on and off very easily. The absorbent liner(20) both in the sleeve(22) and on the pizza server(10) absorb the excess grease. Thanks to the flap(12), you can handle the slice of pizza without touching it, and thanks to the crease(14) you can fold it so it won't flop. During consumption, the pizza server(10) peels back from underneath the pizza, thanks to the crease(14) which seperates by use of a pull string or perforation(16) and tin strips(18) embedded in the plate(10)which help keep the plate folded away. An alternative peel-away method uses cross-wise perforations (24) about every two inches. This pizza-server (10) will make a great advertising and promotion tool, by imprinting information on them and then handing them out to generate good-will.
