Abstract: An adjustable support is useful to carpenters for installing cabinets and handrails in buildings. The adjustable support comprises a stand that defines a longitudinal axis. An adjuster is threaded into the stand. A carrier rests on the adjuster. The stand provides coarse adjustment, and the adjuster provides fine adjustment, of the carrier. In one embodiment, the carrier is a flat plate that supports a cabinet. A tray secured to the stand stores tools used to install the cabinet. In another embodiment, the carrier includes a cradle that is pivotable to match the angle of a handrail along a stairway wall. The cradle may be offset from the stand longitudinal axis. Alternately, the stand has a working edge that is spaced relative to the cradle such that placing the stand working edge against the stairway automatically positions the cradle at the proper spacing from the wall.

Abstract: A keyboard and monitor mount assembly includes an extruded body, a slide support, a support arm and a mounting member. The extruded body is adapted to mount to a solder paste inspection machine and includes at least one channel. The slide support is slidable within the channel. The support arm is pivotally attached to the slide support. The mounting member is coupled to an end of the support arm and is adapted to support either a keyboard or a monitor.

Abstract: A device for holding camping items ready for use at a camp site includes a support pole that is driven into the ground or is attached to a horizontal surface such as the top of a picnic table. The support pole has at least one, a preferably a plurality of, support arms that extend therefrom to hold camping items such as a lantern, paper towels, and cooking utensils. Support structures can also be secured to the support pole, such as by a sleeve which fits around the support pole to hold condiments, such as salt and pepper, or other items, such as garbage bags or a cutting board. The support arms are pivotally attached to the support pole to pivot between a support position wherein the arms extend from the support pole when the device is in use to hold the camping items, or a storage position wherein the arms are aligned with and substantially against the support pole for storage of the device.

Abstract: A holder for holding cords and tubes extending from medical apparatus that are attached to an IV stand. The holder has a base rotatably mounted to the IV stand. An arm is supported by the base and extends away from the base such that the arm holds the cords and the tubes extending from the medical apparatus.

Abstract: An open frame for supporting a venetian blind facilitating washing the blind. The frame has a pair of spaced apart elongate side members each with a face plate and an end plate and are interconnected by a cross member. The cross member adjustably positions the spacing of the side members to suit blinds of various widths. A pair of saddles are adjustably mounted on the side members for releasibly supporting the top rail of the venetian blind. Pins through the frame are insertable into opposed ends of the bottom rail of the venetian blind.

Abstract: A snorkel with a unique strap hook and snorkel tube arrangement which permits both selective release and adjustment of the strap hook, but only when release or adjustment is desired and not by inadvertence. In a preferred embodiment, the snorkel tube is provided with a hook slide region enclosed along the tube surface by an elongated border. Inside each side of the border there is a recess for receiving rails of a strap hook having dove tail cross-section rails. The dove tail relationship between the recesses and the rails prevents inadvertent release of the strap hook from the snorkel tube. However, an opening at one end of each such recess, permits selective removal of the strap hook from the snorkel tube.

Abstract: An anti-fatigue platform includes a resilient body having a flat bottom surface and a sloped upper surface. The sloped upper surface promotes vertical equilibrium and relieves lower and mid back muscular stress when a worker is standing for long periods of time.
