  • Patent number: 11938989
    Abstract: A child seat includes a base and a seatback movable relative thereto between a retracted position, in which the seatback preferably is flush with a top of the base, and an extended position, in which a sitting area of the child seat is exposed for sitting and in which the seatback serves to support a child's back. The seatback of the child seat preferably includes a seat belt for restraint of a child when seated in the sitting area. A shopping cart includes the child seat. The seatback includes a gate movable between a retracted position, in which the gate preferably is flush with the seatback, and an extended position, in which the gate extends in a generally upright manner and partially blocks leg openings of the basket to keep items from falling there through when the seatback is in the retracted position.

  • Publication number: 20240059336
    Abstract: A cart includes a chassis and attached wheels; an upper basket attached to the chassis; and a lower basket attached to the chassis. In some embodiments, the cart includes no widthwise push bar in a rear of the cart such that access is unobstructed to the upper and lower baskets from the rear of the cart by a person. In some embodiments, the chassis defines on each lateral side of the cart a pair of vertically spaced handles, each handle surrounding and defining an opening. The handles preferably include handle bars shaped in an oval. On each cart side a curved elongate member extends between and connects the handles, and the curved elongate members represent the rearmost part of the cart. The rear area of the upper basket defines a seat for an infant, and a rear ledge of the lower basket defines a seat for a toddler.

  • Publication number: 20240051705
    Abstract: Packaging for protecting a brush comprises a box and a brush. The brush has bristles forming a particular shape, and the box defines a nose with a corresponding shape for accommodating the bristles without bending or impacting the bristles, whereby the brush holds its form while packaged. The brush preferably is an angular brush. The box includes a lid by which the brush is secured, with a handle of the brush extending through an opening in the lid.

  • Publication number: 20240032680
    Abstract: A brush includes a plurality of filaments forming a head with a tip having an angled/inclined top when viewed from a side of the brush; and a top in a V-shape when viewed from a top or bottom of the brush. In an alternative embodiment, the filaments form an “Angled Flat Head” defined by tip having an angled/inclined top when viewed from a top or bottom of the brush; and a flat edge when viewed from a side of the brush. In another alternative, the filaments form an “Angled V Head” defined by a tip having an angled/inclined top when viewed from a top or bottom of the brush; and a V-shape top when viewed from a side of the brush. Such configurations of the heads of the brushes preferably are defined by the varying lengths of the filaments, the distal ends of which define the tips of the brushes.

  • Publication number: 20220205656
    Abstract: An ultraviolet light-emitting device can be used to inactivate pathogens in air circulating through an HVAC system. The UV device can include a first and optionally a second UV light source that emits UV light at a predetermined peak wavelength that is selected to inactivate a specific pathogen. The second UV light source can emit a different predetermined peak wavelength that is selected to inactivate a different pathogen. The UV light sources can be included in a housing located within the HVAC system. Two or more housings can be placed within the same or different components of the HVAC system. The two or more housings can include UV light sources that emit the same or different peak wavelengths. An amplifier can be used to increase the intensity of the UV light emitted such that a desired percentage of a specific pathogen is inactivated.
