  • Publication number: 20150344217
    Abstract: The RolaRod invention is a device that helps restrain the inner spool that contains wrap products such as aluminum foil, wax paper, parchment paper and plastic wrap, by keeping it securely inside the container box when in use. Often when taking the product off of the inner spool, the spool containing the product will lift out of the container causing uneven and messy extraction. The RollaRod device fits onto the original wrap container box. The wrap container is usually an elongated rectangular, four-sided, cardboard box with small push-in, end tabs designed into the container ends. These end tabs depress inward to the inside of the hollow spool in an effort to help keep the spool securely inside the container. But, after repeated use, the cardboard end tabs may become weak and allow the inner spool to excessively move around when extracting the wrap product.

  • Publication number: 20140137450
    Abstract: Outdoor screened areas such as around swimming pools and porches tend to be somewhat drab and dull. Colored screening material is available with permanently-imprinted designs, but once installed, the same scene can become monotonous day after day, and cannot be replaced without removing the entire screen which is costly. Viewtees are two-piece identical foam or plastic decorative ornaments that magnetically attach together on opposing sides of outdoor screens, displaying colorful graphics from both the inside and outside views. Viewtees designs are virtually unlimited, with themes encompassing animals, nature and holidays, to name a few. They may vary in size to cover from one to ten square foot areas, where the larger versions also offer a degree of privacy and shade. Viewtees are easy to install and remove as they just magnetically snap together. Once removed, they may be replaced by another ornament and reused at a later date.
