Abstract: A baby feeding bottle has a body with a threaded neck onto which a tightening nut is screwed to keep a nipple in place. A removable receptacle carrying a fluidized mass to be mixed with liquid in the bottle body has a flange and open end, as well as a size and shape enabling it to be received in the bottle neck. While the receptacle is in the bottle, its flange rests on the bottle neck. The bottle carries a funnel-shaped cap that fits over the bottle neck to protect the bottle nipple or can be inverted to function as a funnel for facilitating pouring the fluidized mass into the baby bottle.

Abstract: A cord winder for reducing cord length and for cord storage includes a body (1) having at each end thereof a cord receiving well (2) (3), and two spring hooks (4) (5). Two holes (6) (7) in the body in proximity to one of the wells are dimensioned to receive the cord when the winder is used to effectively shorten the length of one end of the cord thereof. Among the applications of the invention are putting curtain cords out of children's reach, storing halyards on boats and for winding electric extension cords.

Abstract: The device has a first piece mounted on the frame and a second piece mounted on the leaf (or vice versa). The first piece contains two horns defining two rigid bearing surfaces with a groove in between. The second piece is formed by a base mounted on a leaf (or frame), a flexible arm integral with the base and a catch tenon or latch piece integral with the free end of the flexible arm. At closing, the arm lodges automatically in the groove. The first and second pieces are each composed of two parts of which the first is secured to the frame (or leaf), this first part containing a slide-way (or slide) whereas the second part which contains the locking mechanism has at its base a slide (or cooperating slideway) adapted to the slide-way (or slide) of the first part.

Abstract: An improved latch assembly is provided wherein the distance that a door may be left open is limited, and wherein there is a flexible elongated arm of a first part which automatically engages a second part being rigid, with the parts mounted on opposed surfaces, one to the door leaf and the other to the door frame. The elongated arm is flexible with and extends perpendicular to its base portion, and is formed with a cylindrical catch member at its outward end, with the arm engaging one of two opposed grooves in the rigid part, with the parts being mounted in parallel or perpendicular disposition.
