Abstract: Practical lighting is the technique of using light sources that are seen within the frame of a shot. Apparatus 10 and 10A is a lightweight, magnetically mounted, light diffusing housing for LED ribbon which is designed to look like a standard fluorescent tube when used as practical lighting. Control wires can be easily and repeatedly removed via screwed terminal housings (10) or connected via industry standard phoenix receptacle (10A) housed discreetly one of its two end caps, providing a solderless connection with either apparatus. The magnets internally installed adhere the apparatus to standard metal fluorescent housings without damage to the installed fixture negating the need of additional mounting rigging hardware.

Abstract: A personal mobility vehicle having a novel support mechanism for the front wheel which maximizes the amount of foot space available for the occupant of the vehicle. The mobility vehicle has a main tubular base frame formed by laterally spaced, longitudinally extending side members joined by a front nose section. The front wheel is mounted within and behind the front nose section by a novel bracket assembly which maximizes the amount of foot space available on the floor board around the wheel housing.

Abstract: A power operated lift recliner which includes a safety system which senses the presence of an object located between a raised chair and the base frame and deactivates the power lift mechanism to prevent the mechanism from lowering the chair toward the base onto the object located therebetween.

Abstract: An electrically operated lift chair/recliner which includes a swivel base having a power drive that permits an occupant to turn the chair to the left or right as desired.

Abstract: A universal lift frame to which the bottom of a conventional chair, recliner or lounger is readily attachable. The frame includes a base and a platform which is moved vertically and tilted forward and backward to assist the occupant in getting in and out of the chair.

Abstract: An explosive device is disclosed, which is particularly suitable for high energy applications, e.g., priming blasting explosives, cutting cables and for secondary blasting. The device comprises an explosive material having an indentation upon a surface thereof. The indentation which has a mouth, is substantially symmetrical about an axis perpendicular to the mouth. The cross-sectional area of the mouth is at least as great as any other cross-sectional area, normal to the axis, within the indentation. The thickness of explosive surrounding the mouth is greater than the critical diameter of the explosive.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for the co-orientation lamination of at least one ethylene polymer film (A) with at least one ethylene polymer film (B). The polymer of film (A) is of higher melting point than the polymer of film (B). The preferred ethylene polymers are ethylene homopolymers and ethylene-butene-l copolymers. The laminates produced may be heat sealed.
