  • Patent number: 11166544
    Abstract: A folding table has two table top portions. A pair of spaced apart arms extends from each table top portion. Each arm is connected to a respective one of four legs. Two sets of two legs are pivotably connected so that each connected pair of legs can be completely aligned with one another or in a crisscrossed position. A handle connected to and between the upper ends of two of the legs has at least one slot which is positioned and configured to receive a hook that extends from the bottom surface of the first table top portion. When the hook is in the slot the hook prevents the first table top portion from moving away from the legs when that table top portion is lifted upward and can also prevent the first table top portion from moving in a direction parallel to the second table top portion.

  • Patent number: 10323830
    Abstract: A bulb gripper for decorative light holder has a U-shaped body with projections on the interior surface that enable the bulb gripper to securely hold many different sizes of decorative light bulbs. The interior surface of each arm of the body has an inward tooth near the opening followed by several three spaced apart projections. The projections may have a tab portion which is connected to the arm by a narrower connector. The projections and the teeth on the arms form a ledge which supports the decorative light. A smaller U-shaped projection or several projections which are sized and configured to hold a mini-light are provided at the base of the U-shaped body. The arms can flex outward so that the body can receive and securely hold the decorative light.

  • Patent number: 9936828
    Abstract: A suction mounted door hook has two suctions cups and a hook connected to the two suction cups. Each suction cup has a cup portion and a loop portion attached to the cup portion such that the loop portion and a surface of the cup portion define an opening. There is a recess on that surface of the cup portion and a pair of spaced apart loop projections on the top surface and preferably on the bottom surface of the loop portion that have a recess between them which is opposite the recess in the cup portion. The hook has an S-shaped body and two legs, one leg being within the opening of each suction cup. The hook can be in either an extended position or a folded position. Surfaces and projections on the hook mate with the recesses in the suction cups to hold the hook in either position.

  • Patent number: 9675176
    Abstract: A lightweight molded plastic Adirondack chair has front legs which each have an inner side wall that slopes inward. A pair of side walls each extends from and along a front leg, along the side edge of the seat and along a rear leg. The side walls vary in height along their length and are tallest adjacent a transition from the side edge of the seat to the rear leg. A front slat extends from the front edge of the seat and between the front legs forming an arch with the front legs. An arm support extends from each front leg to the front of the arm above that leg. The arm supports extend forward relative to the seat. These structural features improve the strength of the chair such that most portions of the chair can be thinner resulting is a chair that weighs less than 6 pounds.

The cup holder has a tubular boss having a first portion extending from the top surface of the cup holder and a second portion extending from the bottom surface of the cup holder. The first portion is at least partially within the cylindrical boss on the chair arm. A pin within the tubular boss has two or more spaced apart legs each leg having a foot. As the pin is inserted into the tubular boss the legs will move inward and then will move outward when the feet reach a recess on the inside surface of the cylindrical boss on the chair arm. The feet are each sized and configured to fit into the recess and the legs preferably have an outward curvature.
