Abstract: A device for cleaning hand tools comprises a substrate, teeth protruding from the substrate, and an attaching/clipping mechanism that can attach/clip the device to a corresponding apparatus.

Abstract: A horse blanket is provided. According to one embodiment of the present invention, a blanket is provided comprising a body of blanket material and a closure fastening assembly. The body of blanket material defines a major blanket portion, a wither/shoulder portion, a neckline, and a front closure portion. The front closure portion comprises a first closure flap including a first closure flap end portion positioned along the neckline and a second closure flap including a second closure flap end portion positioned along the neckline. The closure fastening assembly is coupled to the body of blanket material and comprises a first releasable wither/shoulder attachment arranged to couple the first closure flap end portion to the wither/shoulder portion substantially along a portion of the neckline, and a second releasable wither/shoulder attachment arranged to couple the second closure flap end portion to the wither/shoulder portion substantially along a portion of the neckline.

Abstract: A horse blanket is provided defining a dressed configuration. The dressed configuration comprises a body of blanket material and a closure fastening assembly. The body of blanket material defines a major blanket portion, a wither/shoulder portion, and a front closure portion. The front closure portion comprises first and second closure flaps, wherein the first closure flap overlaps the second closure flap and wherein the first closure flap, the second closure flap, and the wither/shoulder portion define a neck opening.

Abstract: An aircraft windshield system which employs a relatively thin outer windshield member in combination with a thicker ballistic protection inner windshield member and a plurality of electively disposable specific threat protecting panel members is disclosed. The specific threat protecting panel members are arranged for storage during normal peacetime use of the aircraft, and for rapid and selective deployment into protecting positions when elected by the aircrew or as determined by a mission knowledgeable computer apparatus or other means. The results of studies indicating the desirability of multiple-panel windshield structures from both cost and performance viewpoints are also disclosed. The disclosed windshield system is especially applicable to future military aircraft such as the Advanced Tactical Fighter (ATF) and Advanced Tactical Bomber, and may also be retrofitted to existing aircraft for upgrading purposes.

Abstract: A new bushing removal tool for removing bushings from aircraft transparencies combines a U-shaped tool body, supporting base plates, a threaded shaft extending through the tool body, a large nut screwed on one end of the threaded shaft and a bushing puller on the other end of the threaded shaft. The bushing puller has a pivoting tip which, in one pivoted position, allows the bushing puller to fit through the bushing and, in another pivoted position, engages the bushing so that, when the large nut is rotated, the bushing puller is pulled up. The bushing is pulled up with the bushing puller. A hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder and piston can be used in place of the threaded shaft and large nut. A specially shaped shaft with a fixed tip can be used as the bushing puller for small or fragile bushings.
