Abstract: A lottery ticket scraper incorporates a coin as the scraping surface. The scraper includes a body having a modified teardrop shape, with a major and minor end, the minor end having a reduced thickness to incorporate a key-ring hole, allowing keys to be added without binding or expanding to an undesired size. The body further includes a depression to allow the user to comfortably grasp the scratcher and use it to remove the protective film of the lottery ticket without strain or discomfort to the user's hand. The scraper includes a recess in the major end of the body into which a coin may be glued or press-fit. The recess is so formed as to allow the coin to be reliably captured therein, while still providing sufficient overhang to allow the edge of the coin to be applied to the lottery ticket surface.

Abstract: An ice scraper for use in removing ice from vehicle windows is disclosed which includes a partially transparent, darkly-tinted body having a tapered distal scraping end. The distal scraping end may be inserted between a vehicle window and its molding to provide a shade or sunscreen for blocking bright light from a driver's eyes. Additionally, the dark tint of the body of the ice scraper helps the body absorb thermal radiation to maintain the body at higher-than-ambient temperatures. When the tapered distal scraping end of the scraper is run over an ice-covered surface, this thermal energy combines with the mechanical removal of ice to more effectively remove ice from the surface.

Abstract: A window ice scraper (10) comprising a one-piece flat plate (12) having a scraping edge (14). A facility (16) in the one-piece flat plate (12), is for securely grasping by a hand (18) of a person (20). It will reduce strain on the wrist (22) of the person (20), while the scraping edge (14) on the one-piece flat plate (12) can effectively remove ice (24) from a flat surface (26), such as a window in an automobile.

Abstract: This invention relates to a golf club groove cleaner which has a series of edges formed into a polygonal shape, the tool being attachable to a golf glove so as to associate it with the golfer.

Abstract: A cone shaped, hand held windshield ice scraper consisting of two parts, the cone body and the cap. The cap pressure fits into the open cone top, the open cone base is formed by the convergence of equal opposing angles resulting in a relatively sharp ridge about the base circumference. The cone and cap are composed of a soft plyable plastic to facilitate deformation. Raised ridges are arrayed about the cone for stiffening and grip enhancement.

Abstract: An ice scraper for use in removing frost and ice from vehicle windows. The ice scraper is formed from a hard plastic material into a circular disk with an easily gripped handle attached to its top. The body of the ice scraper is a concavo-convex disk with a circumferential edge that joins with the top surface of the disk to form a sharp cutting edge. A plurality of inclined ridges are formed on the cutting edge at regular spaced intervals; these ridges assist in breaking up ice as it is being scraped from a surface. The handle is integrally attached to the top of the disk. A plurality of finger receiving indentations are formed in the handle to allow the ice scraper to be gripped securely, with little effort.

Abstract: A T-shaped scraper for curved windshield and windows of a newer aerodynamically designed automobile comprises an elongated handle at the stem and a blade with an arc-shaped scraping edge which provides various scraping curvatures by varying the angle of attack. For more intimate contact between a wider portion of the scraping edge and the glass surface, a combination of the scraping induced normal force on the edge, elastic deformations of the edge and the custom profiled blade are used.

Abstract: The present invention provides a better lottery ticket scraper. In one form of the invention a substantially circular disk is provided. The edge of the substantially circular disk is integral with at least one flat smooth protrusion. Preferably, the circular disk has four protrusions integral to its edge, each located integral with a pole of the circular disk. The four protrusions each may have the same thickness as the circular disk, or each may be bevelled outward from the disk to a thin edge. In addition, the protrusions may have one surface integral with one surface of the circular disk and the other surface perpendicular to the outer edge of the circular disk.
