Patent number: 9530334Abstract: A physically-discrete sign component comprises an internally-electrically-illuminated alphabetic character having a front-facing profile and at least one connecting bar disposed at least substantially horizontally with respect to the front-facing profile of the alphabetic character and at least partially within the front-facing profile of that alphabetic character. By one approach the physically-discrete sign component includes two of the connecting bars. If desired, these two connecting bars are disposed at least substantially parallel to one another. By one approach, a first one of the connecting bars extends partially, but not wholly, above an upper periphery of the aforementioned front-facing profile while the second connecting bar extends partially, but not wholly, below a lower periphery of the front-facing profile. The connecting bars can include a connecting-bar interface configured to physically and electrically interconnect to an adjacent sign component.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2015Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: iLight Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Sean Edward Callahan, James Cuppini, Mark Joseph Cleaver, Timothy Edward Canzano, Edward Wayted Chen, Elizabeth Marie Randgaard, Chad Glenn Kirschner, Stephen Michael Oshgan, Paresh Shroff, Joseph Z. Wascow, Nicholas Patrick Jackson, Brian Alan Retzke, Daniel John Williams

Patent number: 6705017Abstract: An apparatus having a foot, a reciprocating saw and a housing. Between the foot and the housing there are means for releasable mounting the foot on the housing, characterized in that the releasable mounting means have a first coupling member connected to the foot and, co-acting therewith, a second coupling member connected to the housing. The coupling members can be carried from a disconnected to a connected position by a relative displacement between the foot and housing.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2001Date of Patent: March 16, 2004Assignee: Skil Europe B.V.Inventors: Brian Joseph Ellis, Eric Robert Larson, Stephen Michael Oshgan, Cornelis Johannes Maria Van Dun, Jan Peter Houben
