  • Insulated jackets for hot and cold piping systems and methods of use
    Patent number: 6786241
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a plastic jacket having air spaces formed by a core and a cover used to insulate hot and cold piping systems and the fittings for those systems. The jacket is made by providing a core that has portions that extends away from the element and a cover surrounding the core. The insulation value of the jacket is created by the air spaces created by the jacket. The plastic of the cover alone or the cover and core can be transparent or translucent so that the condition of the piping element and the jacketed space can be checked without removing the jacket.

  • Cutting blade assembly
    Patent number: 4798000
    Abstract: A detachable cutting blade assembly includes an elongated handle having a rear end and a front end on which a cutting blade can be detachably supported and a blade-locking member, in the form of a wall, is secured to the top surface of the front end of the handle. A portion of the wall of the blade-locking member has lateral lips which give the wall a T-shaped cross section and this provides securement for a cutting blade. The lips of the blade-locking member are aligned with a hole in the handle and this permits the entire handle to be made with a two-part mold in a relatively inexpensive molding process.
