Abstract: The anti-snoring invention comprises as internal nasal dilator having a combination of elements constructed and arranged to provide near-normal breathing for the wearer, while preventing the dilator from falling out of the nose, and without annoyance or discomfort for the wearer. To carry out the inventive concept, the internal dilator comprises a combination of several elements. First a V-shaped member, such as a flat spring is provided, with resilient pad means attached at each end thereof. A flexible nasal strip is then attached by the wearer at the central portion (outside bottom) of the V-shaped spring by adhesive means in one form of the invention, or by clamping means in another form; the nasal strip has two adhesive portions at or near the free unattached strip-ends. The spring-ends with the pad means are inserted by the wearer inside the two nostrils so the spring can spread the outer walls of the nose to increase the nasal opening for improved breathing.

Abstract: The primary inventive concept herein relates to loose-fitting mens' garments which are in direct contact with at least the trunk area of the wearer, such as pajamas and woven "boxer" shorts (underwear), to provide protection for the wearer and his outer clothing from undesirable slight drainage of body-liquids (urine and semen) after normal termination of flow of these liquids, such as after urination. This drainage problem is experienced occasionally by entirely healthy men when they are careless or hurried after terminating the normal flow of these body-liquids. The new garment is also useful for men who are just starting to have a bladder-control problem, such as a slight delay in the normal closing of the sphincter muscle(valve), and even a minute leakage of the "valve" itself, which sometimes occurs in men as young as 30-35 years of age.

Abstract: The main disclosure herein relates to a manually-operated washing device, particularly but not necessarily for automative vehicles, which includes an attachable portion that can be quickly clamped to the wand of a coin-operated car-wash unit for enabling a car-owner to wash his car manually in a unique procedure in less than ten minutes with all dirt removed and the least scratching of any wash. The car-wash device includes novel clamping mechanism and other means to enable quick attachment of the attachable portion to the wand while accommodating almost all shapes thereof now in service. A separate garden-hose wand can be included in the device, so the attachable portion can be clamped thereto for performing the fast but excellent car-wash at home (at no cost) exactly as at the coin-wash.
