Abstract: A collapsible garment and equipment bag having an impermeable surface to allow the user to disrobe and/or place soiled or wet items directly on the impermeable surface of the bag and then close the bag, so as to prevent contamination of the surface below, yet also containing a permeable surface so as to allow for ventilation. A method for loading the bag also has making the bag so that it has an impermeable surface and a permeable containment portion together into a relatively planar configuration; placing the bag upon a bag placement surface; standing on said impermeable surface of said bag; disrobing and placing at least some of the soiled equipment on the impermeable surface of the bag leaving remaining equipment unplaced in the bag; stepping off the impermeable surface of the bag and onto the bag placement surface; placing at least some of the remaining equipment in the permeable portion of the bag and closing the bag for containment. The sporting event is preferably paint ball.

Abstract: The invention is a new heat and fire resistant material. The material is made of a woven silica-based cloth layered in several possible combinations with foil and fiberglass cloth layers. The layers can be arranged in a variety of sequences to minimize the thermal radiation to the inside of the material, but a foil layer must always be the outermost layer to provide protection from radiant heat.

Abstract: The invention is a new heat and fire resistant material and an improved wildland fire shelter and kit. The material is made of a woven silica-based cloth layered in several possible combinations with foil and fiberglass cloth layers. The layers can be arranged in a variety of sequences to minimize the thermal radiation to the inside of the material or shelter. However, a foil layer must always be the outermost layer to provide protection from radiant heat and a layer of foil must be present between the interior of the shelter or material and any layer of adhesive to limit accumulation of gases inside the shelter if the adhesive or other substance should break down when exposed to heat. The silica cloth, aluminum foil, and fiberglass cloth may be laminated or sewn together. The shape of the fire shelter is a half cylinder with ¼ sphere at each end. The shelter is contained in an easy-open polyvinyl bag which provides for quick removal and deployment of the fire shelter.

Abstract: The present invention provides a flexible heat reflective radiant barrier that may be conveniently installed on a structure without the need to simultaneously replace rigid construction decking panels. The flexible heat reflective radiant barrier is for use as part of the outer-protective water-shedding materials of a structure or building, such as underneath shingles, tiles, or siding. At least one heat reflective layer is adhered to at least one layer of a felt roofing material. The flexible heat reflective radiant barrier may be disposed in rolls for case of storage and handling. The rolls are easily applied to rigid construction decking panel substrates, such as plywood or oriented strand board construction sheets of structural 2×4, 2×6 side walls or the like, as a part of the exterior water-shedding material.

Abstract: An improved flexible lightweight reflective summer cure blanket for curing concrete and like materials in geographic areas that experience significant daylight conditions. During the concrete wet curing process, the blanket acts to facilitate the retention of water uniformly in the curing concrete. The blanket has a moisture-impervious exterior surface layer of a single-ply low density thermoplastic translucent film. Immediately beneath the surface layer is an aluminum colored (or coated) woven polyethylene fabric which is further configured with an opaque lower surface. The metallic surface of this fabric acts to reflect heat radiating from the curing concrete back toward the concrete, while also reflecting sunlight. The blanket also has an exterior batting layer of a porous, resilient, polymeric non-woven fabric with hydrophobic properties and sufficient filament length to promote wicking (or capillary wetting action) properties.
