  • Publication number: 20100191750
    Abstract: The present invention is a multiple-column index comprised of at least three columns. The columns are repetitious loops of identical content displayed over several pages wherein the relationship between the columns would be consistent. At least two columns have listings in the order of “A” to “Z” beginning at different points of the alphabet. At least one column has listings in “Z” to “A” order. If a search-result is organized on numerous pages, the invention would maximize the potential for discoverability for businesses listed beyond the first page.

  • Patent number: 6082674
    Abstract: An aircraft window escutcheon assembly includes front and back panels having aligned window openings. A dust pane and a window shade are captively retained between the front and back panels. The front and back panels include integral fastening portions which interlock to join the panels, thus securing the entire assembly together. The back panel includes resilient flexible clips which have hooked ends, and the front panel includes rails which have projecting portions that engage the hooked ends of the clips. The assembly also includes C-shaped locating clips which aid in locating the assembly with respect to an aircraft structure to which the assembly is secured in an aircraft. The window shade is self-rolling, and the rolled portion of the shade is retained by contact with the C-shaped locating clips.

  • Patent number: 4991900
    Abstract: A floor covering or floor mat is disclosed for use with an automotive vehicle having a floor and control pedals positioned at the front of the floor. The floor mat includes a plurality of steps which extend laterally across the floor of the vehicle rearwardly of the vehicle control pedals. The steps decrease in height rearwardly from the control pedals by a preset depth and each step has a preset width which extends longitudinally with respect to the vehicle. Both the preset depth and preset width of the steps are selected so that, with the operators's shoe heel positioned on one step and the sole in engagement with one control pedal, a back of the operator's shoe is spaced upwardly from the step rearwardly adjacent the step on which the operator's heel is positioned to protect the back of the shoe from scuffing.
