Abstract: A panhandle cover made of a heat-resistant material including leather is generally of a longitudinally-split tubular configuration with its longitudinal split having the converging flanks overlapping one inside the other. The nature of genuine leather enables the flanks to conform to any pan-handle as it wraps around the handle. The flexibility of the leather cover adapts to the handle with conformity to the handle-configuration through use.

Abstract: A panel structure for a demountable partition system usable for dividing a room or for forming rooms and/or corridors or other structures, the panel structure having two opposite major faces and in use being positioned in a generally upright orientation with other such panel structures of the system, in which there are provided one or more rolling elements movable using a gearbox mechanism between an extended, ground-contacting position, and a retracted position within the panel structure, wherein the rolling elements and the gearbox mechanism are disposed in relation to the panel structure to preserve an operating characteristic of the panel structure.

Abstract: A building panel has a reinforcing mesh embedded in a concrete slab formed by pressing. The reinforcing mesh is formed of wire rods each of which has at least one flat face. The rods are welded together with the flat faces of the rods abutting one another so that contact between the wire rods occurs over an area. Wire mesh of this kind has considerably enhanced weld shear strength. The panels are formed by pressing so that the concrete mix becomes dense and generally homogeneous. The high structural strength of such panels makes them ideal for use in constructing block and beam foundations and for use in walls, ceilings and flooring.

Abstract: A snap-on or screw type, tamper evident closure having first and second relatively moveable plastic parts (16, 18) which move from an initial position to a new limiting position when the closure is first opened, the new limiting position being visually distinguishable from the initial position to provide the tamper evidence. The two plastics parts are formed in mutually intimate association but have inter-engaging complimentary formations (22, 28, 40, 42) which become irreversibly disengaged on first opening of the closure.
