  • Patent number: 9603491
    Abstract: An expanding curtain does not require the addition or installation of a new curved rod and/or any external curtain supports, control devices, or adapters to expand the usable space in the enclosure area and/or prevent the inward intrusion of the curtain towards the user. Rather, the curtain itself may have the strength, rigidity and/or fortitude to form an outwardly extended shape (e.g., away from the enclosure area) that may hold it in place, thus, expanding the amount of space available for utilization by the user of the enclosure area. The curtain easily and rapidly mounts and thereafter may be easily slidable/manipulated between an open and closed position. The curtain may surround, divide and/or provide privacy to a specific area and/or confined space. The curtain may also maintain a mold, mildew and germ resistant facade, while remaining inexpensive to manufacture.

  • Patent number: 8429785
    Abstract: The erectably operable hand trowel is composed of an elongated handle that extends from a trowel head up to a handle that is engaged upon by an end user. The elongated handle includes an actuator handle that is pivotally engaged about the elongated handle and of which includes at least one pivot rod, which extends from the actuator handle down to the trowel head. The actuator handle provides for articulation of the trowel head about the bottom of the elongated handle, which enables the end user to adjust the angle of the trowel head when pulled across a surface being flattened or smoothed via the trowel head. The erectably operable hand trowel enables an end user to trowel a surface from an upright position.
