  • Patent number: 4375848
    Abstract: Rectangular panels, such as standing seam roof panels, which have upstanding flanges or seam sections extending along two opposed longitudinal side edges are stacked in a nested relationship. Each panel in the stack is transversely bowed about its longitudinal axis to spread the upper edges of the upstanding flanges or seam sections apart by a distance sufficient to permit the next uppermost panel to be nested between the flanges or seam sections of the lower panel. A longitudinal support member is located under the longitudinal centerline of the lowermost panel of the stack to support that panel in its bowed position. The support member and panel stack are in turn supported on a rigid, flat support base, and straps passing transversely around the support base and panel stack bind these elements into a unitary package for shipping or storage.

  • Patent number: 4119078
    Abstract: An arrow rest for a bow is provided which includes a plate that has an arrow pressure point contact area which engages the side of an arrow shaft as it lies on the rest. The plate is not attached to the bow handle but is attached to a spring biased plunger which is movable toward the bow as the arrow passes. Only one plunger is present which is a part of a connection which connects the plate to a bow and includes an interlock for interlocking the rod member to the remainder of the connection to restrain the rod member from rotating motion but permitting motion of the rod member and the arrow rest and arrow pressure point contact area in and out with the spring biased plunger. The interlock and the connection having longitudinal axes that are substantially coextensive with each other when the arrow rest is mounted on a bow.
