Publication number: 20200146490Abstract: The artificial tree is collapsible by inverting a main trunk thereof to swap positions of a first end and second end. The limbs are pivotably attached to the main trunk so that they sag under force of gravity from a deployed more horizontally extending orientation to a collapsed more vertically extending orientation when the main trunk is inverted. A base is preferably provided which has wheels and static portions in contact with the ground for supporting the tree thereon. A riser extending up from the base is configured to have an end of the main trunk rest therein. A lock is also preferably provided to hold an end of the trunk within the riser of the base. A separate treetop portion is removably attachable to ends of the trunk to complete the tree when in a deployed configuration and for storage of the treetop when the tree is not collapsed.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 22, 2015Publication date: May 14, 2020Applicant: BALSAM INTERNATIONAL UNLIMITED COMPANYInventor: BRUCE A.

Publication number: 20200146491Abstract: Disclosed is an artificial tree having a plurality of electrified tree sections that couple together to provide power and/or command signals to devices connected thereto. One or more tree sections may have a trunk portion, one or more electrical connectors having a plurality of terminals, branches, a light string, and an electrical distribution system located at least partially within the trunk portion. A first tree section may be configured to couple to a second tree section such that an electrical connector of the first tree section is in electrical connection with an electrical connector of the second tree section, thereby mechanically and electrically connecting the first tree section to the second tree section such that power and/or the control data are transmitted to the second tree section. Further, each trunk segment may include an axial electrical connector that permits adjacent trunk segments to connect in a plurality of radial orientations relative to each other.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 11, 2019Publication date: May 14, 2020Inventor: Jason Loomis

Publication number: 20200146495Abstract: A multifunctional juicing net structure of a juicing device includes a juice cup, a juicing net cup, a spiral pushing and extruding body and a feeding cup cover. The juicing net cup is received into the juice cup; the spiral pushing and extruding body is received into the juicing net cup, and the feeding cup cover is covered onto the juice cup. The juice cup and the juicing net cup are provided for juicing and filtering food residue and make selective adjustments according to different squeeze food to achieve the effect of separating the juice and the residue during a juicing process. No dead spot exists after the juicing net cup is detached from the juice cup to facilitate the cleaning and preventing the residue from being stuck at the corners during the cleaning process, so as to achieve the effects of good functionality and high convenience.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2018Publication date: May 14, 2020Inventors: Chin Jui Lien, Yi Wang Kuo
