Abstract: Washing devices, systems and methods comprise mitter systems suspended from a support. A first axle is mounted to the support and rotates about a first vertical axis. A pivot arm rotates with the first axle. A second axle is mounted to the pivot arm and is rotatable about a second vertical axis. A planetary gear system has a first gear secured in a horizontal plane to the support and located coaxial with the first axle. The planetary gear comprises a second gear mounted to the second axle and rotating about the second vertical axis. Rotation of the pivot arm causes the second axle and the second gear to be rotated. A frame is mounted to the second axle and a plurality of mitter strips extend downwardly therefrom.

Abstract: An armboard assembly includes an armboard deck including a cavity formed in a lower surface of the armboard deck, an armboard mount including a plurality of radially extending teeth positioned within a mount portion of the cavity, and an engagement assembly movable relative to the armboard deck between an engaged position to engage the plurality of teeth of the armboard mount and a disengaged position to disengage the plurality of teeth of the armboard mount. The engagement assembly includes a handle including one or more legs extending from an upper surface of the handle, which engage an insertion hole formed in the armboard deck and a channel extending from the insertion hole toward the armboard mount, and an indexing member positioned within the cavity of the armboard deck and coupled to the handle. The indexing member limits movement of the engagement assembly by maintaining the legs within the channel.

Abstract: An opening structure including opening methods and elements to fracture a glass ampoule in a safe, secure, and friendlier manner at a specific point on the ampoule, which allows the ampoule to retain in place its substantial structure, allowing less glass fragments from the ampoule's breakage to obstruct the smooth, consistent, and speedy flow of the ampoule's substance to the opening structure's dispenser/applicator.

Abstract: A water discharge dechlorinator unit includes a body having a first end adapted to be removably coupled to a water hydrant, such as a fire hydrant. The body defines a water passageway between an inlet and an outlet thereof. A chamber is in fluid communication with the water passageway and configured for reception of dechlorinating material therein, such as chlorine neutralizing tablets, whereby water from the fire hydrant passes from the water passageway and over the dechlorinating material in the chamber so as to neutralize chlorine in the water before it is discharged from the unit.

Abstract: A goggle resistant to fogging is provided. The goggle consists of a water wicking and thermal transfer face gasket combined with heat transfer inlets and outlets optimized for heat transfer to air flow through the goggle. With low airflow resistance in the vertically oriented inlets and outlets, the goggle ventilates by natural convection removing moisture and keeping the goggle from fogging. Simultaneously, the present goggle results in greater comfort for the user.
