Abstract: A pillow having a resilient pillow body with a sound transmitting passageway extending through the pillow to bring sound from outside the pillow through an inlet in the side of the pillow to an outlet in the central area of the top of the pillow so that a person using the pillow, with his ear on the outlet, can hear the sound. The passageway has an inlet section leading from the inlet into the pillow which section forms an exponential acoustic horn to amplify and clarify the sound transmitted by the passageway.

Abstract: A compression garment comprising of targeted higher compression muscle support zones knitted in seamlessly and lower compression zones knitted seamlessly in-between and around the targeted higher compression muscle support zones, thereby isolating each targeted higher compression muscle support zone from one another; wherein the total seamless construction provides targeted anatomical muscle compression support, and said construction collectively defines and overlays the human musculature surface anatomy of the wearer of the garment.

Abstract: A storage and drying unit for storing and drying outerwear, sports clothing or equipment is provided. The unit comprises an enclosure having a back wall, a top wall, and two side walls defining at least one chamber with an open front. The chamber may also include shelf members for supporting the outerwear, sports clothing or equipment. The walls and any shelf members include aeration holes for allowing movement of air through the chamber in order to facilitate the drying of the outerwear, sports clothing or equipment placed in the chamber. The unit may be provided with a drying fan to encourage an airflow past the outerwear, sports clothing or equipment in the chamber to facilitate drying of same. The unit may also be provided with hangars for hanging the outerwear, sports clothing or equipment. These hangars are sized and shaped to be removably inserted into any one of the aeration holes.

Abstract: An undergarment for use by a hockey player comprising a one-piece torso portion having a head opening, leg openings and arm openings; a neck guard assembly comprising an integral neck guard coupled to the torso portion adjacent at the head opening, and a releasable attachment means coupled to the neck guard to permit the neck guard to be securely positioned on a neck of the player; a sock support positioned adjacent to each of the leg openings; an opening to permit the hockey player to don the undergarment; and a zipper positioned so that when closed the undergarment and the sock supports are retained in place on the hockey player.

Abstract: An undergarment for use by a hockey player comprising a torso portion having a head opening, and arm openings; two pant leg portions extending from the torso portion; and a neck guard assembly comprising an integral neck guard at the head opening, and a releasable attachment means coupled to the neck guard to permit the neck guard to be securely positioned. Each pant leg portion carries at least one sock support. The undergarment further includes a genital protector support, sized, shaped and positioned to support a genital protector. Also included are a pair of sleeves and a sleeve cuff assembly on each of the sleeves. Each sleeve cuff assembly includes a fastening means which is sufficiently adjustable to allow a wrist guard to be selectively positioned on a player's wrist.

Abstract: A hockey shirt with a lower trunk opening, a neck opening and a neck guard associated with the neck opening. The neck guard includes a neck surrounding band of fabric, and a releasible attachment for changing the diameter of the neck guard to suit the needs of the wearer. In one embodiment the shirt includes sleeves, with cuff assemblies. The cuff assemblies include a slash guard retaining pocket and an elasticizing means, which in the preferred embodiment is the sleeve cuff itself.

Abstract: A seismic detector which generates an electrical signal in response to the occurrence of a vertical seismic wave predetermined magnitude is mounted in a weather-proof container in or adjacent an inhibitable building. A circuit breaker to interupt electrical power to the building is mounted in the same container and connected to open in response to signals from the detector. Gas and water line connections each with a solenoid operated shut-off valve are separately housed in a weather-proof container in or adjacent the building and the valves are connected so that they will close in response to a signal from the seismic detector. The entire system is rendered fail safe through the use of an interruptible power supply system housed in the container with the seismic detector and connected to energize the gas and water line cut off valves to hold them in open condition.

Abstract: An athletic garment particularly suitable for hockey players protects the genital area of the wearer. The garment comprises a waistband which is supported at the wearer's waist elastically and with a drawstring. An inner pant and an outer pant are attached the waistband. The inner pant has a rise so selected that its crotch portion engages and supports the genital area of the wearer. The outer pant has a pocket adjacent its crotch portion which receives a genital protector. The pocket is positioned to overlay the genital area when the waistband is maintained at the wearer's waist thereby ensuring proper protection. The outer pant has a larger rise than the inner pant so that the pocket is normally spaced from the wearer's genital area, providing greater comfort and enhanced freedom of movement. Hook-type Velcro.TM. fasteners are positioned on the front and back of each pant leg associated with the outer pant and serve to support hockey stockings.
