Patent number: 8303556Abstract: A device for men to manage the involuntary loss of bladder control, the device includes an upper portion integral to a lower portion, wherein the lower portion defines a retention body having a lower opening to access an inner chamber sized and shaped to accommodate the insertion of a male penis. The upper portion defines an upper hood having an open position and a closed position. A replaceable absorbent member is disposed on an interior of the upper portion, and an attachment member releasably secures the upper portion to the retention member such that the upper portion is in the closed position. The device further consists of a first layer having a plurality of vent holes positioned along the length and width of the first layer and, a second layer having a plurality of vent holes positioned along the length and width of the second layer. A plurality of dimples are sandwiched between the first and second layers that form a separation between the layers and provides ventilation to the inner chamber.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2009Date of Patent: November 6, 2012Inventor: Wayne White

Patent number: 5915831Abstract: A vehicle headlight assembly includes a snapping engagement between a bezel, a housing and a lens. The snapping engagement positions all three pieces relative to each other during a manufacturing or assembly process. The light bulbs of the headlamp assembly are supported on the internally aimed reflector by bulb retainers that snappingly engage openings in the reflector. The bulbs preferably include housings that bias tab members on the bulb retainers into engagement with the reflector. The reflector is moved within the housing to direct the beam of light from the bulbs. Socket retainers snappingly engage the reflector. Ball members on conventional adjustors are received within the socket retainers so that the adjustors support the reflector within the housing and provide the ability to adjust the angular position of the bulbs and reflector relative to the remainder of the assembly.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 1996Date of Patent: June 29, 1999Assignee: Autosystems Manufacturing, Inc.Inventors: Jason Bonin, Chris Morewood, Wayne White
