  • Patent number: 11089884
    Abstract: An apparatus for storing and/or displaying multiple fishing reels using the reel foot of each reel to removably attach it to a reel rack. The reel rack has a generally rectangular, oblong configuration. At least one of the rack sides comprises a lateral rail defined by multiple continuous uniformly spaced rail ridges separated by intervening rail slots. Slidably attached to the rack top are at least two paired foot clamps, each of which supports a foot socket that is configured to hold one tapered end of a reel foot. Each foot clamp has two clamp arms, each of which extends downward from the base of the foot clamp and engages one of the rack sides. At least one of the clamp arms contains a spring-loaded plunger which engages the lateral rail and releasably projects into at least one of the rail slots, so as to secure the foot clamp in a fixed position along the lateral rail until the plunger is manually released.

  • Patent number: 10231558
    Abstract: An apparatus for storing and/or displaying multiple fishing reels uses the reel foot of each reel to removably attach it to a reel rack. The reel rack has a generally rectangular oblong configuration. A rectangular rack base and two perpendicular, substantially rectangular rack sides define a longitudinal, axial rack channel. The reel foot of each fishing reel is removably attached to the reel rack by a pair of foot clamps. Each foot clamp has an open, generally rectangular or arcuate shape. The clamp arms are configured to slidably engage the rack sides, so that a pair of foot clamps can be cooperatively positioned to engage the two tapered ends of the reel foot of one of the fishing reels, thereby securing it to the reel rack for purposes of storage and/or display.

  • Patent number: 5752830
    Abstract: A dental implant system has an inner housing removably received in an outer housing embedded in the bone for allowing a retentive screw or post retaining a prosthesis to be easily removed. A suspension mechanism provides lateral movement of the prosthesis for transferring forces from biting or chewing to the inside walls of the outer housing. A resilient coating on the inside wall of the inner housing absorbs the external forces. An interlocking gingival collar and abutment arrangement limit rotation of the prosthesis.
