Abstract: A vehicle wheel well covering for protecting a wheel well area of a vehicle. The vehicle wheel well covering includes a cover for covering a vehicle wheel well, a shovel assembly extending from the cover, a spine assembly supporting the cover, and a retention prong extending from the spine assembly. The shovel assembly is coupled to the spine assembly and includes a shoveling member and a handle coupled to the shoveling member.

Abstract: A tiltable lid assembly includes a base that is secured to a cup that holds a liquid substance. The base has an opening that is aligned with an opening on the cup. A cap assembly is secured to the base and includes a first seal for sealing the opening of the base and a second seal for sealing an air vent on the base. The cap assembly is tiltable along an axis, wherein in a first position, the cap assembly is in a level, non-inclined position and the first and second seals seal the opening and the air vent, respectively. In a second position, the cap assembly is inclined and the first and second seals are displaced from the opening and air vent. Releasable locking means secures the cap assembly in the first and second position.

Abstract: A sealed delivery system for dispensing metered volumes of a pure or sterile flowable substance is presented. In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, a hand-held sealed delivery system comprises a continuously sealing one-way valve assembly at a distal end, and a volume reducing reservoir at a proximal end. The pure or sterile flowable substance can be stored in the volume reducing reservoir. In operation, a user pushes down upon a push button driven actuator assembly, acting upon a metering pumping chamber, which is in fluid communication with the pure or sterile flowable substance stored in the volume reducing reservoir via a check valve. Depression of the push button driven actuator causes a dispensing pump to push a metered volume of flowable substance through the continuously sealing one way dispensing valve assembly.

Abstract: A rotary cutter comprises a body having a handle and a cutter opening. A reservoir of rotary blades is disposed in the body. A member is moveable between a protective and an exposed operative position. A releasable blade receiver assembly allows a blade to be ejected from the cutter and a replacement blade to be loaded onto the cutter for subsequent usage.

Such system comprises a continuously sealing one-way valve assembly at a distal end, and a volume reducing reservoir at a proximal end, in which a pure or sterile flowable substance can be stored. In operation a user pushes down upon an actuator assembly, acting upon a metering pumping chamber in fluid communication with the reservoir via a check valve. Depression of the actuator causes a dispensing pump to push a metered volume of flowable substance through the continuously sealing one way dispensing valve assembly, and return of the actuator to its home state causes the dispensing pump to pull a metered volume of the contained flowable substance from the volume reducing reservoir and through the check valve.

Abstract: A toy vehicle includes first, second, and third subassemblies. The second and third subassemblies are each configured to be selectively coupled to the first subassembly. A plurality of wheels are configured to be coupled to the first subassembly.

Abstract: A hearing aid includes a first portion adapted for behind-the-ear placement having a microphone, a second portion adapted for in-the-canal placement having a receiver and a cable that couples the first portion to the second portion, the cable having an adjustable length.
