Abstract: A bougie having the dimensions of a standard bougie used widely by first responders is further configured to emit tight with an intensity that transilmminates a patient's neck; thus the position of the bougie is visible to the first responder when placed in the patient's airway. The bougie includes a light source, which may be a luminescent chemical combination contained in a chamber of the bougie. The luminescent chemical may have a high intensity and a short duration. The light source may be a light-emitting diode powered by an onboard battery and emitting light into a fiber-optic cable that emits light from the distal end and/or from interruptions in a reflecting coating that allows transverse exit of some of the light. The light source may be a chemilmninescent material or compound. All components of the bougie are sized to pass through an endotracheal tube without removing any of the components.

Abstract: A system for diffusing one or more volatile compounds includes a base and a pod tray, carried by the base. At least one pod is carried by the pod tray. The pod has a housing holding a volatile compound mass, the housing and mass being moveable relative to one another. An actuator is carried by the base, the actuator being operable to engage the pod and move the housing and the volatile compound mass relative to one another. The pod and the actuator are positionable relative to one another such that one or both of the pod and the actuator can be positioned proximate to one another to enable the actuator to engage the pod and move the housing and the volatile compound mass relative to one another.

Abstract: A dosing cap (1) is proposed for a cleaning agent container (20), having a cup-shaped cap body (3) with an open end part (4) and a closed end part (5) and a brush device (2) for the pre-treatment of objects to be cleaned, the brush device (2) being configured detachable from the brush attachment arranged on the cap body, wherein the brush attachment is configured to be pluggable in such a way that the brush attachment (2) may optionally be either plugged onto the closed end part (5) or onto the open end part (4). Further, a cleaning agent container (20) having such a dosing cap (1) and a use of such a dosing cap (1) for the pre-treatment of laundry to be cleaned is proposed.

Abstract: A manufacture for reducing thermal transfer through windows has a composite metal/nonmetallic frame and/or a composite vent surround. The metallic and non-metallic components are modular and selectively coupled, such that a range of variations to accommodate different applications may be inter-coupled via common interfaces.

Abstract: A forward leaning, hinged-lid storage and dispensing box is described, suitable for use with flat, stacked articles such as index or playing cards, dry stiff articles and pads such as cleaning or burnishing pads, or the like. Minimally the box of the present invention comprises in combination; a back panel; side panels; a bottom panel; a front panel; a top panel; and, a lid hinged to the front panel that forms at least a portion of both the front and top panels of the closed box, and wherein the lid drops and opens forward on at least one hinged connection, and wherein the front panel is angled forward from vertical at least a few degrees. In this way, stacked flat articles loaded into the box will necessarily lean against and parallel to the inside surface of the front wall, ready for easy reach and removal one-at-a-time by the consumer.

Abstract: An improved dispensing package for liquids is described comprising a combination pouring spout fitment, a closure that functions as a measuring cup when removed and inverted, and a bottle. The improved liquid seal between the closure and the fitment is made possible through mismatched bevels on the closure and fitment respectively wherein the sharper angled bevel on one of the parts buries into the wider angled bevel of the other part. The applied torque is prevented from loosening prematurely through a thread configuration form that allows the closure to seat securely into the spout fitment with the closure threads pushing back up against the bottom surfaces of the fitment threads in a “locked” arrangement. The correct alignment of the fitment on the bottle is made possible through the coordination of a thread stop on the fitment and corresponding locking lug on the neck of the bottle.
