  • Patent number: 5515875
    Abstract: An improved compact container for the storage and dispensing of loose cosmetic powder is provided. The container includes a base portion for accommodating and storing loose cosmetic powder. A retainer mateably engages an opening defined by the base portion. The retainer includes a lower perforated panel which provides for a controlled dispensing of the loose powder and an upper closure panel which folds over downward and closes the lower perforated panel to seal the powder below the upper closure panel when the compact is not in use. The design of the retainer also enables an applicator or powder brush to be stored on top of the container below the cover or top of the compact container to provide a compact and convenient kit for the storage, dispensing and use of loose cosmetic powder.

  • Patent number: 5396861
    Abstract: An improved system for attaching boat covers to boats is provided. In the preferred embodiment, a male/female connecting system is employed where one-half of the connecting system is attached to the cover via length-adjustable straps and the other half of the connecting system is attached to the boat via an attachment strip that provides for lateral movement of the connectors. Thus, one-half of the connecting system may be moved farther away or closer to the edge of the boat cover and the other half of the connecting system may be moved laterally along the boat side for easy connections. After all of the connections are made, the straps may be tightened to remove any slack from the boat cover and create a tight fit of the boat cover over the opening of the boat.
