Abstract: The present invention is a mounting device for a child safety seat. The child seat attaches to a motor vehicle seat through the use of mounting hooks attached to mounting brackets and mounting spikes that go through a set of receiver holes in the automobile seat. The mounting spikes connect the safety seat frame to the motor vehicle seat. The mounting spikes have spring-loaded securing latches that secure the child seat to the motor vehicle seat. The child seat will have a release mechanism that will quickly and easily release the mounting spikes from the seat to allow the child safety seat to be removed from the vehicle.

Abstract: A fluid strainer device is disclosed. The device includes a housing which defines an open chamber, the chamber having both at least one fluid input port and at least one fluid outlet port. A plurality of spaced strainer baskets are disposed within the chamber. Each basket has a pair of spaced perforated side panels, a perforated rear panel, a perforated top panel and an open front portion in fluid communication with the chamber fluid input port. Finally, each strainer basket is aligned within the chamber for fluid flow from the chamber input port into the basket's open front portion and out through the perforations thereof to filter debris from the fluid while preventing substantial fluid pressure drop between the input and outlet ports substantially independent of debris buildup within the basket.

Abstract: A coupling device is disclosed for releasably interconnecting conduit elements. The device includes a first coupling member having a first central opening therethrough, and a second coupling member having a second central opening therethrough. The second coupling member is sized and shaped to slidingly engage the first coupling member. A first collar element is coaxial with the first central opening and extends outwardly from the first coupling member. A second collar element is coaxial with the second central opening and extends outwardly from the second coupling member in a direction opposite that of the first collar element when the coupling members are interengaged. A tapered pocket is defined in the first coupling member to act as a seat for slidingly receiving the second coupling member, the second coupling member being substantially in the form of a wedge-like element. An alignment mechanism is disposed in the upper portions of, respectively, the first and second coupling members.
