Abstract: An aerosol valve having a cap with integral tube passing into a lid of an aerosol can. The bottom of the lid has a valve body containing a gate and a spring. The interior of the valve body has tapered grooves that are narrower on an upper end to control the flow. The spring biases the face of the edge against the washer to close the valve. When the cap is pressed the tube presses the top of the gate to separate the edge and the washer thereby opening the valve and causing the contents of the aerosol can to be dispensed.

Abstract: An elevator car door safety device that uses flags along a hoistway is disclosed. The elevator car door safety device is mounted to the outside of an elevator car door using a mounting plate and includes a locking assembly mounted to the sill of the elevator car door. The car door safety device includes a lever with a hook at its distal end. The safety device also includes a flag engagement arm perpendicularly mounted to the lever. If the flag engagement arm engages a flag on the hoistway then the hook is prevented from being lodged into the locking assembly and the car door is permitted to open. Inversely, if no flag is engaged, the lever will continue to rotate urging the hook to be lodged within the locking assembly, thereby preventing the door from opening. An electric switch assembly can be used to stop the motion of the elevator.

Abstract: An aerosol spray gun that holds an aerosol can to aid in dispensing it's contents. A main arm inside the body has a trigger on a rear side of a main pivot and on a forward side has tab and a forward pivot. A nozzle assembly with an open center is at a forward side of the body. The aerosol spray and fan-forced air pass through the open center during dispensing. When the trigger is pulled the main arm articulates about the main pivot causing the forward side of the main arm to move down simultaneously pressing the valve on the aerosol can down and moving the nozzle assembly down so that the aerosol spray and the open center of the nozzle assembly always remain concentric.

Abstract: An aerosol can spray gun that accepts a top of an aerosol spray gun. The spray gun includes an integral motorized fan. When the trigger on the spray gun is depressed the aerosol spray can dispensing cap is depressed and simultaneously the fan pushes air out through nozzles in the front of the spray gun to control the spray fan pattern. A tab on the cap ensures that the nozzle on the can is oriented forward. Optionally, the air nozzles in the front of the spray gun can adjust the fan pattern between horizontal and vertical.

Abstract: An aerosol can spray gun that accepts a top of an aerosol spray gun. The spray gun is connected to a pressurized gas source, such as air. When the trigger on the spray gun is depressed the aerosol spray can dispensing button is depressed and simultaneously so that the fluid dispensed from the aerosol can is carried by the pressurized gas out of the front of the spray gun. The pressurized gas is dispensed out of nozzles on the front of the spray gun through a rotating ring that can adjust the fan pattern between horizontal and vertical.

Abstract: An elevator car door interlock including a locking assembly, cable assembly, switch assembly, and top mounting assembly. The elevator car door interlock works in combination with flags installed in an elevator's hoistway. A flag is installed in the areas where it is permitted to open the elevator doors. The locking assembly includes an arm that engages the flag. The flag then prevents the arm from reaching its maximum tilt and keeps it in the substantially vertical position. This causes the hook in the locking assembly to remain in the lowered position. The hook in this position allows the cable to freely travel when the elevator doors are attempted to be open. If the elevator is in a locking zone, then there is no flag present and as the door is attempted to be open, a weighted member attached to the bottom of the cable will begin to rise.

Abstract: An air pressure regulating system mounted within a wheel and tire assembly. It primarily includes a temperature sensor and a compressor assembly having a compression chamber and valves. Utilizing centrifugal forces from the rotation of a wheel and tire assembly, air may flow into and out of a tire to automatically maintain the pressure inside a tire relatively constant over a given temperature range. When the pressurized air in the compression chamber is greater than the pressurized air in the tire, the pressurized air in compression chamber flows into the tire. When the pressurized air in the tire is greater than the pressurized air in the compression chamber, the pressurized air in the tire flows into the compression chamber. When the pressurized air in the compression chamber is equal to the pressurized air in the tire, it is in equilibrium, and no air flow occurs.

Abstract: A bidet accessory for mounting to the rear flanged section of two-piece toilet fixtures and removably connected to hot and cold water supplies. An outlet is connected through a flexible conduit to a sprayer that is, when not in use, held in place by the supporting assembly. A mounting assembly is mounted to the supporting assembly and it allows for the installation of the bidet accessory in a multitude of different angles depending on the users' preferences and space constraints.

Abstract: A bidet accessory includes a support assembly removably mounted to the rear flange member of conventional toilets. A valve assembly with a mixer provides temperature regulated water, through a conduit housed within the support assembly, to a sprayer that is removably suspended from a holder that includes collector for the residual water that drips from the sprayer. This residual water is channeled through a drainage channel to the bowl of the toilet. The mixer includes a threaded plug, spacer and hose connector members that are housed within a through opening in the support assembly. This construction permits the ready mounting of the conduit to the mixer's hose connector.
