Abstract: A power tool is provided with a perforated material remover to remove perforated material from power tool cutting implements. The power tool also includes a rip guide which has a long guide edge and two attachment points to the shoe/base of the saw. The rip guide is attached to the base/shoe via a pair of L-shaped openings that accept L-shaped support arms of the rip guide. The rip guide can also be folded for compact storage. The power tool also includes dual bevel scales for quickly and easily setting the bevel angle on the power tool.

Abstract: A cover assembly adapted to be mounted over an in-floor fitting, including a frame having a passage defined therethrough, a lid pivotally secured to the frame and positioned over the passage, an egress door movably secured to the lid, and a sealing membrane bonded to an underside of said lid and said egress door.

Abstract: A cover assembly is provided for preventing water infiltration into an in-floor receptacle fitting, such as a poke-thru fitting. The cover assembly includes a trim flange which overlies the fitting and is adapted to support at least one receptacle within the fitting. A cover plate is mounted on the trim flange includes access doors for selectively covering and exposing the receptacles. A first seal member is interposed between the cover plate and the trim flange for sealing against water infiltration therebetween. The first seal may be in the form of a planar gasket or O-ring. A second seal, in the form of at least one compressible gasket, extends around the perimeter of the floor opening and is adapted to be compressed between the trim flange and the surface of the floor. The cover plate may also include top and bottom portions and a third seal member interposed between the top and bottom portions.

Abstract: A page turner useful for turning the pages of sheet music and other materials. The preferred page turner has a plurality of page disks located within a housing. Separator disks are sandwiched between page disks. Each page disk has associated with it a page index that is intended to be attached to a page to be turned. Page disks are rotated and pages turned by rotating a cable which has a roller that rotates a page disk. The cable is powered by a foot operated gear drive or an electric motor.

Abstract: A multi-part diving fin includes a blade portion having a tip and a shoe end opposite the tip, the shoe end at least partially defining a foot pocket, and a foot plate formed as a separate piece from the blade portion and having a formation for releasably engaging the blade portion, the foot plate configured so that upon engagement with the blade portion, the foot plate provides a bottom of the foot pocket. The present fin also features a vertical adjustment of the height of the foot pocket, as well as stiffness adjustment for the blade portion of the fin.

Abstract: A reactive energy apparatus providing a custom fit and ankle support in a shoe upper is comprised of a pair of fluid filled pads that are positioned in the upper on opposite sides of the Achilles tendon of the wearer. The fluid filled pads each contain one or more interior chambers containing fluid, and the pads are connected in fluid communication by a series of conduits extending between the pads and around the Achilles tendon of the wearer. The conduits are constructed to enable the free flow of fluid between the two pads, enabling the apparatus to provide a continuous custom fit and dynamic support for the wearer's ankle while avoiding exerting any pressure on the Achilles tendon of the wearer that could potentially injure the tendon.
