Abstract: A device for retaining nail clippings within a nail clipper includes a housing adapted to cover the openings between the clippers elongate members, on both sides, from the first ends to the second ends thereof, thereby forming an enclosed region within the nail clipper. In addition, the device includes a valve element, adapted to be located between the elongate members, for blocking the passage of the nail clippings from the region of the jaw to the tail of the nail clipper when the jaw is opened and for allowing passage of the nail clippings when the jaw is closed. This allows nail clippings to pass to the region between the elongate members when the nails are being clipped and thereafter to be retained in this region when the jaw is opened. Thus, in effect, the valve works as a one way valve, permitting passage of the nail clippings into, but not out of, the nail clipper.

Abstract: A fluid gun has multiple spring-loaded oblong extendable barrels arranged to provide a plurality of fluid streams which intersect in air at a predetermined distance from the nozzles when a single trigger is squeezed. The gun has separate chambers containing fluids of different colors. When the streams intersect, the colors combine and mix.
