  • Patent number: 11834259
    Abstract: A feminine product disposal assembly includes a drum that has a rotatable section for opening and closing the drum. A hatch is positioned within the drum, a garbage bag is positionable on the hatch and the garbage bag drops downwardly in the drum when the hatch is opened. A closure unit is positioned in the drum and the closure unit closes the garbage bag when the closure unit is turned on to enclose the used feminine product in the garbage bag for disposal. The closure unit is disengaged from the garbage bag when the closure unit is turned off to facilitate the garbage bag to receive the used feminine hygiene product.

  • Patent number: 9149074
    Abstract: An infant garment with integrated safety features. The garment is formed as a multi-layered article of clothing, where a net-like harness is sandwiched between two fabric layers. The harness covers substantially entire torso of the infant. The harness has a handle extending through an opening of the outer layer. When a caregiver lifts the child using the handle of the harness, the lifting force is distributed about the torso of the infant without concentrating the lifting force in one small area.
