Abstract: The present invention is a stand apparatus for a display screen (such as a computer monitor or a TV) having an arcuate arm member, a base adapted to accept the arm member and allow for tilting movement of the arm member in relation to the base, and a contoured clamp member operable to engage and grip the arm member. The curvature of the clamp member matches the curvature of the arm member and prevents damage to the finish of the arm member. The clamp member is coupled with an arm screw member that is readily accessible to a user. The cross-section of the arm member prevents lateral movement of the arm member in relation to the base. The base is operable to freely swivel 360 degrees and can be readily fixed in relation to a base ring once it is in a desired position. Cabling channels are also provided within the arm member to house cables from the display screen.

Abstract: A device to rivet two pieces together each having aligned holes comprising a rivet holder body having a cylindrical hole there through, an upper punch and a lower punch coaxially disposed along an axis of a cylindrical hole presented in the rivet holder body; structure for guiding a rivet to the rivet holder body in a selected orientation as well as structure for catching the falling rivet in the cylindrical hole when the upper and lower punches are in a first separated position and to withdraw from the cylindrical hole as the upper punch moves relative to the lower punch to a second riveting position.

Abstract: The present invention is a holding device for a rope, cable, wire and the like hereafter referred to as rope and more particularly a sliding cam rope cleat comprised of a holding device, a slideable cam member controlled by a sliding handle and two passageways therethrough for the rope member. While the sliding handle is engaged in the open position, the cam member will not be resident in the first passageway and a rope member may be freely inserted and drawn. However once the sliding handle is engaged in the clamping position, the cam member will partially obstruct the first passageway and the tapered serrated bottom of the cam member will engagingly grip and secure the inserted rope member. Subsequently, the holding device provides for a quick release of the secured rope member by returning the sliding member to its first open position thereby disengaging the tapered serrated cam member for the inserted rope member.

Abstract: This invention relates to a hand pump adapted for discharging fluid from a portable container, and particularly relates to a hand pump having a first and second valve means for discharging fluid from a portable container. The invention also relates to a method of discharging fluid from a portable container by use of a hand pump.
