Abstract: A speed retarding device for a rotary nozzle includes a hollow cylindrical housing and a rotatable tubular shaft rotatably carried by the housing. The shaft has an enlarged drag sleeve portion carried in the housing and a shaft end extending through at least one end of the housing to receive a rotary nozzle thereon. A pair of support bearings support the drag sleeve portion of the shaft in the housing. An annular inner seal between each of the support bearings and the drag sleeve portion defines a cavity within the housing receiving a viscous fluid confined within the cavity. The support bearings are separated from the cavity confining the viscous fluid and an outer annular seal on the shaft adjacent each support bearing prevents environmental contamination such as water and debris from entry into the support bearings.

Abstract: A drill (1) based on an embodiment of the present invention is equipped with: a first chip discharge flute that is provided on an outer periphery of a drill body and spirally extends around a rotational axis from a first cutting edge toward a rear end of the drill body; a second chip discharge flute that is provided on the outer periphery of the drill body and spirally extends around the rotational axis from a second cutting edge toward the rear end of the drill body; and an auxiliary flute that is provided on the outer periphery of the drill body and extends along the second chip discharge flute on a front side in a rotating direction of the rotational axis, wherein a rear end of the second chip discharge flute extends further toward the rear end of the drill body than the first chip discharge flute.

Abstract: The present invention is a hand-held device for obliterating personal medical information printed on a prescription-labeled bottle. The innovative concept scarifies the label with an abrasive surface to render the printing unreadable.

Abstract: A pipe tool and method of filling. The pipe tool comprises a handle rigidly attached to a spade at an angle of approximately 225 degrees. A cross-sectional shape of an upper extreme of the spade is that of an arc of approximately 70 degrees, and a lower extreme whose shape is that of a spherical section. A cross-sectional thickness of said spade decreases linearly from the spade upper extreme to the spade lower extreme. The handle has a tamper which is shaped like a half-circle.

Abstract: A money clip and cigar cutting apparatus is provided with a housing having an opening therethrough. A cutting blade is supported by the housing such that a sharpened edge thereof traverses the opening for cutting a cigar. A money clip is pivotally attached to the housing so that the money clip can be pivoted clear of the cigar cutter.

Abstract: A tobacco pipe bowl wherein the interior burning chamber is larger at its bottom base than at its top where the bowl opening is located. Furthermore, associated with the tobacco pipe bowl there is associated a honing tool to clean the tobacco pipe bowl.

Abstract: The invention is a device for cleaning tobacco residues from smoking pipes, comprising a generally hairpin-shaped piece of wire having one leg coiled to clean the bowl of a pipe and the other leg kinked to clean the stem of a pipe.

Abstract: A composite smoker's kit for preparing a pipe or a cigar for smoking. The kit is readily adaptable to the body portion of a lighter mechanism to enable easy transfer from a spent lighter mechanism to a fresh lighter mechanism and thereby enjoy a long lifetime of use. The kit features smoker's tools which are compactly mounted on a spring clip of the kit. The tools are detented on the lighter body when not in use but can be conveniently pivoted to operational position when desire is to use the tools.

Abstract: A pipe tamping tool 10 includes tamping member 26 integrally formed with cleaning member 28 capable of cleaning the interior of the bowl of the pipe. Medially formed on the cleaning member 28 is a reacting member 30 for retaining the pipe bowl in an upright position when placed upon a horizontal surface. The retaining member 30 is a substantially arcuate member which envelopes the stem of the pipe and which has outwardly flaired free edges or legs or flanges which radiate outwardly from the arcuate portion thereof. A clip 42 for attaching the device to an article of clothing, is integrally formed as part of the device. A flocking or similar material 40 can be adhered to the interior of the arcuate member 36 to prevent scratching of the pipe stem.

Abstract: A reamer includes two reamer plates overlapping with each other. On the base and tip section of these plates, there is provided an adjustable part and both plates are coupled so as to be opened and closed while centering the adjustable part on the tip section. The adjustable part on the base section has an adjusting screw, an adjusting hole, and a screw rod that passes through the adjusting hole which is situated eccentrically to the adjusting screw. The direction in which the adjusting screw is fastened is coincident with the direction in which the reamer plate is closed.

Abstract: The invention disclosed herein is a smoker's implement which serves as both a scoop and a bowl reamer for a smoking pipe. It is a small, one-piece body tapered at both ends, and is made of relatively thin sheet metal or the like, of dimensions adapted to be readily inserted into the bowl of a smoking pipe. This device has two portions, one being the scoop portion and the other being the reamer or cutting portion. The scoop portion (which also serves as a handle for the device when it is being used as a bowl reamer) has smooth edges which uniformly taper toward its end from a point approximately midway of the length of the body. Preferably this portion has a relatively broad, shallow slightly V-shaped depression extending along the axis of the body from its end. The other portion of the body, namely, the reamer or cutting end, has extending inwardly from its end over part of its length, stepped sides or cutting edges.

Abstract: A bendable resilient, substantially rigid pipe cleaner which is constructed of an elongated member having a fore end and an aft end located on either side of the handle section. Both the fore end and the aft end are tapered to decrease in width toward the outer end of each end. The pipe cleaner is formed in a substantially S-shape with each end of the device being essentially similar.

Abstract: A supportive tray upstandingly supports an elongated resilient planar loop having convexly contoured reaming sides and an arcuate reaming arch. An inverted pipe bowl placed on and pressed downwardly on the arch deforms the convex sides into conforming engagement with the concavely formed bowl sides to perform a reaming function upon rotation of the bowl relative the loop to remove ash and dottle from the pipe bowl.

Abstract: A smokers' pipe reamer comprises a hollow body, a forward portion of which has three longitudinally extending radial grooves and bearing slots, each extending radially from a respective one of the grooves to the interior. In each of the grooves a reamer blade is guided, this blade having a U-shaped appendage protruding into the interior. Three pins held in the forward portion of the body extend through the openings of respective ones of the appendages to permit radial and swiveling motion of the respective reamer blades. Radial movement of the blades may be adjusted by a pin having a conical tip adapted to bear against the radially innermost portions of the blade appendages. The pin is adjustable along the longitudinal axis of the reamer body by means of screw threads and a guiding slot, thereby limiting radially inward movement of the appendages and the blades while permitting the blades to swivel about each of the three pins.
