Patent number: 5632645Abstract: A new Wire Nut With Self Locking Hot Wire Insert for providing a connector which allows an electric wire to be safely removed from other wires for testing without disturbing the electrical bond needed by the branch wires. The inventive device includes an insert wire socket, a release wire socket, an insulating means, a conductive means, a retainer means and an insulating pad means. In use, an electrical supply 11 is electrically connected to an electrical circuit having any number of typical components such as a control means 15, like a switch 16, and branch circuit wires 14 which are typically held together by wire nuts 17. A typical application for this electrical circuit is in a house where a "neutral" wire 18 (usually white in insulation color) and the hot wire 12 (usually black in insulation color) are employed for transfer of electrical power from the electrical supply 11 to the electrical circuit. The inventive device is the self locking wire nut 13 which, referring to FIGS.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 1996Date of Patent: May 27, 1997Inventor: William Love

Patent number: 4426744Abstract: This invention relates to the combination of an outdoor swimming pool and adjustable roof structure mounted so as to extend over the pool and a patio adjacent to the pool. When the roof structure is in a raised position, the pool may be used by bathers, positionally adjustable curtaining extending between the roof structure and a ground area surrounding the pool and patio providing protection against adverse weather conditions. When the roof structure is in a lowered position, it prevents access to the pool, providing a safeguard against small children falling into the pool when it is not being used by adults. Additionally, when the roof structure is in its lowered position, insulating members carried thereby lie directly over the pool, minimizing heat loss therefrom. Desirably, the roof structure or part thereof may be moved to open the pool to the sunshine, while providing shade and protection against wind to non-bathers sojourning on the adjacent patio.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 1979Date of Patent: January 24, 1984Inventor: William Love
