Abstract: The present invention provides a hand-held massage assembly that is modular and allows a user the option of using a roller mechanized massager with or without a handle. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the hand-held massage assembly includes a roller mechanized massager having an electro-mechanical connection. A handle is connectable to the electro-mechanical connection on the roller mechanized massager by a first electro-mechanical connection at one end thereof. The handle also has a second electro-mechanical connection at an opposite end. The first electro-mechanical connection and second electro-mechanical connection of the handle are electrically coupled to each other. A power cord having an electro-mechanical connection is coupled to the second electro-mechanical connection on the handle.

Abstract: An architectural fabric is claimed where the tension members are strips. These strips comprise a tension member and a polymer matrix. The matrix is preferably of the thermoplastic type and is preferably chemically attached to the polymer used for the membrane. However, mechanical fastening of the strip to the membrane or a combination of chemical and mechanical fastening is not excluded. The advantages are that such a strip is better weather resistant, offers better strength to weight ratios and gives a larger contact surface to the membrane.

Abstract: A portable, modular garment steamer includes a carriage and steamer body detachably mounted thereon. The steam body includes a water tank, a reservoir and a steam chamber having a water heating element. A steam hose connected to the steam chamber permits a user to control the direction of steam exiting the steamer. The carriage includes wheels making the assembly movable. In addition the steamer body includes a carrying strap providing for portability when separated from the carriage. On/off switches as well as a thermostat and/or a timer permit the control and selective operation of a water heating element to control the generation of steam.

Abstract: A hand-held, convertible pressing iron/steamer device includes a steaming module including a compartment for holding water, and a heater for producing steam from the water. The device further includes an ironing module including a heatable flat pressing bottom surface, the ironing module being selectively attachable to the steaming module so as to direct steam through the flat pressing bottom surface. There is also a handle attachable to the steaming module and the ironing module. In a first configuration, the handle is operably and detachably mounted to the steaming module alone. In a second configuration, the handle is operably and detachably mounted to the steaming module and the ironing module.

Abstract: A hand-held massage assembly includes a power cord connectable to an electrical power supply, a vibratory massager, and a handle conductively coupling the power cord and massager. The handle may be removed and the power cord coupled directly to the massager. The vibratory massager includes a relatively flat working surface and a second connector for receiving either the first connector of the power cord or a first end of a handle.

Abstract: A new and improved V-shaped eye wear display device is provided to enable attractive and effective display of eye wear and eyeglass frames while also allowing multiple and varied configurations and assemblies as required by specific sale promotion and other applications. The novel V-shaped eye wear display device includes two temple free end receiving cavities which support the eyeglass frames by the temple free ends to provide for a more unique, functional, attractive, effective and versatile eye wear display assembly, a more aesthetically pleasing display configuration enabling a clear unobstructed view of the eye wear and frames, a method of using said novel V-shaped equally adaptable to both counter-top and wall mount display assemblies, and to provide an easy to use and configure eye wear display device that is considerably less expensive to manufacture.
