Abstract: Lug nuts may be adhered to a vehicle wheel about a stud-receiving opening therein to facilitate mounting of the wheel onto a wheel hub of a vehicle without necessitating manual placement of the lug nut on the stud by utilizing a cylindrical washer-like annular device, the opposite ends of which have self-adhesive surfaces. Thus, one adhesive surface of the washer-like device may be adhered to the vehicle wheel about a stud-receiving opening while the opposite adhesive surface may be adhered to the lug nut. The main body of the device is preferably formed of a stretchable foam material so that the device is extensible in response to extension of the stud through the wheel opening, thereby to remain adhered to the wheel and the lug nut until securement of the lug nut to the stud.

Abstract: A componential system for assembling various interior building facade structures such as soffits and other decorative or functional installations feature a number of modular components extruded and molded from suitable poly-plastic material which can be snapped together, placed in position and afterwards finished in any desired manner, as by painting or papering. No drywalling or like work or other construction is necessary so that soffits, for instance, can be assembled and installed by the cabinet or other installer rather than by carpenters and drywallers, as is typical.

Abstract: Soffits for interior construction purposes are preformed from L-shaped foam material having insert furring strips for attaching the soffits to walls and ceilings. The preformed soffits are brought to the job site, quickly cut to length, fastened in place, and then covered with plasterboard before cabinets are mounted below.

Abstract: Soffits for interior construction purposes are preformed from U-shaped foam material having inset furring strips for attaching the soffits to walls and/or ceilings and, in some cases, for also hanging cabinets from the soffits. The preformed soffits are brought to the job site, quickly cut to length, fastened and/or glued in place, and then covered with plasterboard before the cabinets are mounted below.
