  • Patent number: 6028018
    Abstract: An improved wet wipe includes a multiple layer basesheet to provide a unique combination of properties to the wipe which are not capable in a single layer basesheet. The layered basesheet includes at least two layers which include different fibers and have different physical properties. One of the layers may include polyethylene fibers to provide a soft, gentle feel for contacting the skin of the user during use while the other layer may include polypropylene fibers to provide strength and resiliency to the wipe to withstand the forces exerted by the user, and maintain its shape and integrity in use.

  • Patent number: 5667635
    Abstract: A pre-moistened wet wipe provides functional wet strength in use, yet is dispersible if flushed down the toilet so that plumbing and sewage treatment facilities do not become clogged. A particular embodiment of the wipe consists of three uncreped through-air-dried tissue plies that are attached to each other by edge embossing. The two outer plies contain a wet strength agent to provide wet poke-through resistance to two large, centrally-located unembossed regions. The center ply contains no wet strength agent to aid in dispersibility. The embossing around the edges of the wipe further degrades the strength of the wipe in the embossed areas to assist in dispersibility when the wipe is flushed.

  • Patent number: 4170071
    Abstract: A sighting device for use with an archery bow for hunting or target purposes, utilizing light emitting diodes which are battery operated and the intensity of which may be varied manually. The light emitting diodes are mounted at the ends of sighting pins which may be adjusted both vertically and horizontally, to compensate for distance and windage. The light emitting diodes are shaped so as to protrude beyond the end of the sighting pins and thus under bright ambient light conditions function to gather and disperse said ambient light even though not electrically energized.
