  • Publication number: 20130061379
    Abstract: A toilet and urinal anti-backsplash configuration and apparatus are provided which preferably include a back wall with a tube built into said back wall so that major portions of urine being deposited into tube are prevented from backsplash toward urine depositor or adjacent surfaces. Said tube is preferably incorporated into the same material, most commonly white porcelain, as the rest of the toilet or urinal, thereby blending in with the fixture housing, and is rinsed via the same flushing system already in place with conventional toilets and urinals.

  • Publication number: 20110157900
    Abstract: A light cover for obscuring light bulbs in recessed lighting fixtures so as to enable the use of far less expensive incandescent light bulbs, or the more energy efficient Compact Fluorescent Lights, (CFLs), instead of the standard flood light style bulb configuration, while maintaining acceptable esthetic appeal. Cover is sized to fit within the baffle of a recessed lighting fixture, and can mount to fixture either frictionally, by a hooking system, or screwing directly to the interior baffle wall. For the frictional or hook mounting systems, covers can be installed or removed without tools, simply by holding the edge surface of the cover and pushing up, into place, or pulling down to remove. Translucent lens can be fabricated out of glass, metal grid or mesh, or other heat tolerant material that allows sufficient light transmission.
