Abstract: A mirror includes a frame holding back-to-back a pair of reflective mirror plates having different magnification factors, each plate having a reflective central area and an outer concentric light-transmissive window area. Rotatable pivot joints supporting the frame between opposed arms of a support yoke and enable the frame to be rotated to orient a selected plate in a forward-facing use position. A hoop-shaped printed circuit board having circumferentially spaced apart light emitting diodes (LED's) protruding therefrom is located between inner facing surfaces of the mirror plates. Objects in front of a mirror plates are illuminated by direct LED rays emitted forwardly through the window areas and by indirect LED rays reflected from reflective inner facing surfaces of the mirror plates, and from the forward facing surface of a movable reflector ring within the frame which falls rearward when the frame is rotated.

Abstract: A mirror for facilitating appearance related functions includes a circular ring-shaped frame holding therein back-to-back reflective mirror plates having different magnification factors, e.g. 1× and 5×, each plate having a circular central imaging reflective area and an outer concentric light transmissive window area. Continuously rotatable pivot joints support the frame between opposed arms of a yoke protruding upwardly from a stanchion and base for placement on a table, or an arm and wall bracket for mounting on a wall, enabling the frame to be rotated to interchangeably orient 1× and 5× mirror plates in a forward facing use position. A ring-shaped, printed circuit board with circumferentially spaced apart light emitting diodes (LED's) protruding radially outwards of an outer circumferential edge of the board is located between inner facing surfaces of the mirror plates.

Abstract: A dual magnification vanity mirror adjustable in height and orientation includes an elongated stanchion curved into the shape of a C having a downwardly depending threaded support leg insertably receivable through a central hole in a base plate and removably fastenable thereto by a nut threaded onto the leg. The mirror includes a mirror frame which holds therein a pair of back-to-back mirror plates of different relative magnifications, the frame being joined by a ball-and-socket joint to a bushing rotatably mounted on a horizontal end arm of the stanchion, whereby the frame is swivelable and/or rotatable about an axis of the ball-and-socket joint to adjustable azimuth and inclination angles, orbital about a longitudinal axis of the coupler bushing to an adjustable height, and secured thereat by a screw tightened into radial bore through the bushing onto the arm.

Abstract: A portable travel mirror device includes a base, a handle pivotably mounted to the base, and a dual mirror assembly mounted to the handle which is pivotable and telescopically extendable between compact transport and upright use configurations, and includes a circular primary mirror frame holding a magnifying mirror encircled by a ring-shaped lamp energized by a power source within the base, and overlain by a diffuser ring. A secondary mirror pivotably and swivelably attached to the primary mirror frame has a different magnification factor, e.g., 1×, and is pivotable upwards from a travel position overlying and protecting the primary mirror to an upright use position, and is also swivelable into contact with the primary mirror frame, whereby light from the lamp is transmitted through the diffuser ring and a transparent secondary mirror bezel to illuminate objects in front of the primary or secondary mirror.

Abstract: A dual magnification reversible spot mirror device includes two mirrors having different magnifications, e.g., 5X and 10X, mounted back-to-back in a cylindrical frame ring which has an outer cylindrical wall surface from which protrudes a circumferential annular ring-shaped rib, and a mirror frame holder which has protruding forwardly from a base thereof a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart, longitudinally disposed flange walls which are elastically deformable in a radially outwardly direction from a longitudinal center line perpendicular to the base.

Abstract: A dual magnification mirror system includes two mirrors having different magnifications, e.g., 5× and 7×, each mounted in a frame fastened to an opposite end of an elongated flexible arm. Each frame is so constructed as to enable it to be interchangeably placeable, mirror face down, on a horizontal supporting surface, such as that of a table or counter top, thus locating the other mirror above the supporting surface, at viewing position which is adjustable by a user by bending the flexible arm. The system also includes a wall mounting bracket fastenable to a vertical wall surface, the mounting bracket having on a front surface thereof a pocket for downwardly insertably receiving and supporting a peripheral flange which protrudes radially outwards from each mirror frame, thus enabling each mirror to be interchangeably inserted into the pocket, and thereby locating the other mirror at a flexibly adjustable viewing position spaced outwardly from the mounting bracket.

Abstract: A personal care accessory for carrying cosmetic articles and viewing one's image during their use includes a shallow open top basket which has releasably attached to opposite sides thereof an inverted U-shaped bail-type handle. The vertical segments of the handle are elastically deformable apart to disengage and reattach the handle to the basket. The handle has a straight upper central portion over which is fitted a tubular end portion of a mirror assembly support bracket, the other end of the bracket supporting an inverted U-shaped yoke which holds a mirror. The mirror is rotatable about a yoke pivot axis to a desired inclination angle, and the yoke assembly is orbitable around the handle to position the mirror at a selected polar angle.

Abstract: A fogless mirror for use in showers includes a shower arm adapter having a tubular body attachable at one end to a shower arm and at the other end to a shower nozzle; a bore disposed longitudinally through the tubular body conveys warm water from the shower arm to the nozzle, and a small orifice disposed radially through the tubular body diverts a small portion of water conveyed through the bore. A first rotatable coupler rotatably mounted to the shower arm adapter and angularly adjustable in a first plane conducts water diverted from the bore of the tubular body into a first outlet port boss. A second rotatable coupler rotatably mounted to the first outlet port boss and angularly adjustable in a second plane conducts water through a rigid tubular support arm to a mirror support frame, heating the mirror and thereby inhibiting condensation fogging thereof.

Abstract: A shower caddy for holding personal care articles including containers of preparations such as shampoo, hair conditioner, lotions, toothpaste and the like, and items such as shavers, toothbrushes and combs, includes a frame having generally vertically disposed structural elements, at least one and preferably two transversely disposed shelves for holding articles, the shelves being attached to the frame at a vertically spaced apart locations, and a mirror pivotably attached to the frame at an intermediate vertical location between the shelves. A tubular collar attached parallel to the frame is has a vertically disposed coaxial bore therethrough that telescopically and rotatably holds the elongated straight, lower shank portion of a hanger rod.

Abstract: A shower caddy for holding personal care articles customarily used in bathroom showers which is reversible to enable the caddy to alternatively be attached to a shower head and shower enclosure panel includes a pair of laterally spaced apart, straight vertical stanchion rods, each having at the upper end thereof a short upper end arm which protrudes perpendicularly forward from a longer lower portion of the stanchion. An upper transverse bracket member removably attachable at outer lateral ends thereof to the stanchions has a laterally centrally located central arch section having an upwardly concave opening adapted to fit over a shower pipe and thereby suspend the caddy frame therefrom. The reversible shower caddy includes a plurality of article storage shelves which are removably attached to the stanchions at adjustable heights, the shelves protruding perpendicularly forward from the stanchions when the caddy is hung from a shower head.
