Abstract: The currently disclosed invention consists of a system for rapidly chilling a beverage within a drinking container while it is being consumed. The preferred embodiment consists of two straight plastic tubes, one fitting inside the other, with ice contained between the outer tube and the inner tube, wherein beverage can be drawn up through the inner tube in the manner of a drinking straw. The tubes are created by extrusion molding, with an optional weight located within the outer tube, surrounding the base of the inner tube, and encased in plastic. Other embodiments of this system are possible, as are described within the specification incorporated herein.

Abstract: The Windshield Clearing and Cleaning Apparatus for Motor Vehicles with Performance Improving Adaptations is a revolutionary new design for windshield wiper blades incorporating several possible embodiments in which the accumulation of rain water or snow which makes the use of windshield wipers necessary is removed from the windshield in a new and much more efficient manner due to either the wider and firmer construction of the V-Blade which makes the pushing action of the blade result in more complete removal, or the throwing action caused by the unique shaping of the C-Blade which removes the rain or snow from the windshield completely, rather than just pushing it aside. Another related embodiment is not actually a blade at all, but a single tube or a plurality of tubes which remove the rain or snow by means of high pressure air or high pressure water, removing it from the windshield entirely, much as is done by the aforementioned C-Blade.
