Abstract: A polymeric container assembly comprises first and second polymeric containers. The first polymeric container includes a first continuous body portion and a first rim having a first surface. The first rim encompasses and projects laterally outwardly from the first body portion. The first surface of the first rim includes a first cohesive. The second polymeric container includes a second continuous body portion and a second rim having a second surface. The second rim encompasses and projects laterally outwardly from the second body portion. The second surface of the second rim includes a second cohesive. The first container and the second container are adapted to be releasably attachable to each other by pressing the first and second rims together such that the first cohesive and the second cohesive contact and releasably attach to each other.

Abstract: A computer peripheral device mounting arrangement has a pair of computer peripheral device mounts. Each computer peripheral device mount includes a computer peripheral device side bracket that is mounted on an exterior sidewall of the computer peripheral device. Each computer peripheral device mount also includes a drive bay bracket fixedly positioned in a drive bay. Clips and slots provide a non-locking securement arrangement on the computer peripheral device side bracket and the drive bay bracket. The computer peripheral device side bracket and the drive bay bracket of each computer peripheral device mount is secured by a single screw that prevents relative movement between the computer peripheral device side bracket and the drive bay bracket.

Abstract: A sacroiliac joint support mechanism for installing to a seat of a golf vehicle, having a sacroiliac joint support cushion for abutting to the posterior wall region of the sacroiliac joint, angling elements for creating an angle of support and an attachment elements for fixedly installing the sacroiliac joint support mechanism to an open span between a golf vehicle seat bottom and a golf vehicle seat back.

Abstract: A crutch support system including a pair of crutches is disclosed. Each crutch includes a pair of support shafts. Each support shaft includes a plurality of hand grip adjustment holes and a seat support pin received in hand grip adjustment holes in each support shaft pair. A seat is releasably connected to the seat support pins.

Abstract: An optional venting container comprises a base and a lid. The lid is releasably latched to the base. The lid comprises at least one ventable area formed therein. The at least one ventable area is adapted to form a vent only upon a user asserting pressure thereon. The lid is made from a polymeric foam.

Abstract: Memory management to support calls between objects in language environments support automatic garbage collection and language environments requiring explicit control of object destruction is provided. Reference counting is used to automatically control the lifetime of objects requiring explicit destruction and that are to be accessible across the language boundary. A data structure is maintained in a runtime component for each object that is accessed over a language boundary. The reference count for each non-garbage collected object is incremented by the runtime in accordance with the number of cross-language references held to it. When the count reaches zero through decrements as the references are returned and destroyed, the non-garbage collected object can be safely and automatically destroyed. The runtime creates a strong reference to any garbage collected object accessed by a cross-language call.

Abstract: A cookie container comprises a base having a bottom wall and an upstanding side wall surrounding the bottom wall. One portion of the side wall forms a pair of integral ramps for supporting respective generally straight rows of cookies at an angle relative to the bottom wall. The ramps are angled slightly away from each other such that an interior angle between the ramps (as viewed from an interior of the base) is greater than 180 degrees. By angling the ramps away from each other, the rows of cookies extending from the respective ramps into an interior of the base diverge away from each other. This, in turn, assists in showcasing cookies supported by the ramps for better viewing because a consumer can readily see the generally flat top of at least one cookie from a greater viewing angle than if the cookies in both rows extended in the same direction.

Abstract: A plastic container includes a lid and a base optionally connected to each other along a hinge. The lid includes a top wall having an integral sauce cup holder for engaging and suspending a sauce cup from the top wall above a bottom wall of the base. The sauce cup holder preferably includes a plurality of clips spaced equidistant from each other. These clips are spaced sufficiently apart such that they allow an upper peripheral rim of the sauce cup to be easily snapped into place with a top portion of the sauce cup immediately adjacent to the top wall of the lid.

Abstract: A system for sanitizing beverage dispensing equipment includes a plurality of beverage sources such as kegs, each connected to a dispensing tap by means of a connecting conduit removably coupled to one of the sources and the tap. A manifold includes a plurality of flexible hoses attached thereto. Each of the hoses has a first end in fluid flow connection with the manifold body and a second end provided with a fitting adapted to be connected to one of the connecting conduits when it is disconnected from its beverage source. A source of solution for cleaning or sanitizing the taps and the connecting conduits is provided. A pump is connected by an inflow hose to the solution source and is connected to an outflow hose which has an output end with a fitting adapted to be connected in fluid flow communication to one of the connecting conduits when it disconnected from its beverage dispensing tap.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for extracting hydrocarbon gas from drilling fluid samples utilizes microwave energy as the source for heating a sample, containing water, sufficiently to cause the extraction of the hydrocarbon gases therefrom. Either a batch or a continuous operation can be realized using this method.

Abstract: A fuel injector for an internal combustion engine includes a preassembled permanently mated needle and valve body group contained in a main housing assembly. The valve body group is assembled so that the maximum allowable stroke of the needle is established by a stop abutment, which is permanently attached to the valve body. An injector assembled according to the present method does not require the use of various shims in order to set the air gap. Moreover, precision grinding is not needed to establish the needle lift.

Abstract: An improved gas trap for mud logging is vertically mounted such that its lower end is constantly beneath the surface of mud flowing in a tank. The mud is drawn into the housing where it is agitated to release the entrained gases which are drawn off for measurement. The spent mud is returned to the tank through a mud exit port and related pipe to a point below the level of the mud and remote from the mud intake to the gas trap. This gas trap is insensitive to mud level changes and is relatively free of maintenance requirements.
