  • Publication number: 20190225420
    Abstract: An attachable stabilizer for laterally supporting a garbage bin has a clevis, an extension plate, a garbage-bin coupler, a wheel and an axle. The wheel is positioned into the clevis, the wheel is rotatably connected with the clevis by the axle, the clevis is terminally positioned to the extension plate, the clevis is pivotally connected with the extension plate about a pivot axis, the pivot axis is perpendicularly positioned to the axle, the garbage-bin coupler is terminally connected with the extension plate, the extension plate is located in between the clevis and the garbage-bin coupler, and the garbage-bin coupler is used to be releasably coupled to the garbage bin.

  • Patent number: 10273082
    Abstract: An attachable stabilizer for laterally supporting a garbage bin balances the garbage bin as it is being pushed or pulled by the user. The attachable stabilizer includes a clevis, an extension plate, a garbage-bin coupler, a wheel, and an axle. The clevis affixes the wheel onto the extension plate in a steerable manner, thereby allowing the wheel to steer when the garbage bin makes a turn. The extension plate rotatably and laterally supports the garbage bin from tipping over. The garbage-bin coupler releasably couples the extension plate onto the wheel-and-axle assembly. As such, the extension plate may be retrofitted onto a variety of different garbage bins. The wheel and the axle along with the wheel-and-axle assembly allows the garbage bin to roll over the terrain. This allows the user to easily transport the garbage bin even if it is heavily loaded with waste.

  • Patent number: 9327422
    Abstract: A saw guide for increasing a gap between deck boards is an apparatus that includes a base panel, a blade hole, a front guide tab, a back guide tab, a binding clamp, and an alignment rail. The apparatus is used in conjunction with a circular handheld saw to more precisely widen the gap between two deck boards. The circular handheld saw is mounted onto the base panel by the binding clamp. The blade of the circular handheld saw is positioned within the blade hole, and the alignment rail is used to properly orient the blade. The front guide tab and the second guide tab are located on opposite sides of the base panel and are used to guide the cutting direction of the circular handheld saw.

  • Publication number: 20120291370
    Abstract: A deck joist protecting kit of tools and devices is used retrofit a deck in order to protect the deck boards and the deck joists from water or moisture damage. The kit comprises a plurality of water diverting inserts, a plurality of water diverting strips, an insert knife, a strip roller, and a reciprocating saw attachment. The water diverting inserts are positioned between each deck board on top of a deck joist, which channels the water or moisture away from the deck boards and the deck joist. The water diverting strips are positioned in between certain deck boards on top of several desk joist in order to create a dry area underneath the deck. The insert knife is used to install the water diverting inserts, and the strip roller is used to install the water diverting strips. The reciprocating saw attachment can be used widen the gap between deck boards.
