20100083455 | Tool for holding small parts - A tool for holding small parts and for immobilizing the parts during cleaning or other treatment with a fluid. The tool includes first and second porous members which encompass the part. At least one of the first and second members is deformable to partially conform to the part. The tool has elements for holding or securing the first and second members together during cleaning. The tool may also have a handle connected to the first and second porous members. The handle may be spring biased so that the first and second members are normally held together to enclose a part. The handle can be manipulated to move the first and second members apart when it is desired to insert or remove a part from between them. | 04-08-2010 |
20110247168 | METHOD OF INSPECTION AND CLEANING MEDICAL, SURGICAL, AND VETERINARY INSTRUMENTS AND AN INSPECTION MAT FOR USE IN THE METHOD - A method of controlling the quality of inspection and cleaning of surgical, medical, and veterinary instruments includes gathering illustrations of the instruments to be cleaned and inspected. Portion of the instruments most subject to wear and retention of contamination are identified and marked on the illustrations. The illustrations are annotated with instructions on inspection and cleaning with reference to the marked portions. The annotated illustrations are positioned on an upper surface of a resilient, smoother, waterproof mat. | 10-13-2011 |
20110258805 | Painting implement cleaning and support apparatus - A painting implement cleaning and storage apparatus | 10-27-2011 |
20110296645 | LEAF BLOWER WITH HOSE RETAINING DEVICE - The present invention relates to a backpack leaf blower with a sheppard's hook device mounted on the back pack for the purpose of holding the flexible air hose by rotational force against the hose. The device can be added to an existing backpack or designed into a new device as needed. | 12-08-2011 |
20120054978 | CLOSURE FOR A PIPELINE PIG SENDER OR RECEIVER - A closure for pipeline pig sender or receiver includes a primary closure body and a secondary closure body. The primary closure body has an outer face, an inner face and a port extending therethrough from the outer face to the inner face. The primary closure body is secured to the pipeline pig sender or receiver sealing a closure end when the primary closure body is in the closed position. The secondary closure body closes the port on the primary closure body. The secondary closure body is movable between a closed position and an open position to enable an operator to insert a tool through the port into the diversionary passage to manipulate the pipeline pig and release trapped pressure prior to opening the closure. The secondary closure body is secured to the primary closure body sealing the port when the secondary closure body is in the closed position. | 03-08-2012 |
20120297569 | LOADING MECHANISM OF DUST-COLLECTING APPARATUS - A loading mechanism is disposed on a dust-collecting apparatus. The loading mechanism includes two positioning members disposed on a dust-collecting bucket of the dust-collecting apparatus, two support members disposed on the dust-collecting apparatus, two slide members respectively sliding on the support members, an operation member connected to the slide members, and two limit members connected with the operation member and the support members. The slide members can engage with the positioning members. The user just pulls up the operation member to link the slide members to slide along the support members, such that the dust-collecting bucket can be connected to the dust-collecting apparatus or detached from the dust-collecting apparatus quickly and conveniently. | 11-29-2012 |
20130145571 | Apparatus for Guiding a Hydraulic Hose - An apparatus for guiding hydraulic hoses for use in cleaning sewer lines. The claimed hose guide locks the hydraulic hose, near the head of the hose, in a clamp, providing rigidity for an operator trying to locate the opening of a clogged pipeline. Once the hose has been placed at the pipeline opening, the operator releases the hose from the hose guide, pressurizes the hose so as to separate the hose from the hose guide, removes the hose guide from the sewer line, and cleans the pipeline with the hydraulic hose. | 06-13-2013 |
20140041144 | Windshield wiper immobilization device - The invention provides an apparatus to hold one or more windshield wipers stationary against a vehicle window. The apparatus comprises a window placement module comprising a vacuum cup that has a vacuum zone and an attachment means that is located at a point on the cup other than within the vacuum zone. The attachment means is linked to a first point of an arm that comprises a constraint feature to hold a windshield blade in place and further comprises a leverage feature to raise or lower the height of the constraint feature relative to the first point of the arm. | 02-13-2014 |
20140250623 | BladeBoot.RTM.is a wind shield wiper and arm protector, made of insulated foam rubber tubing. This tube is an easy slide on and off application that slips over exiting wiper blades and arms of parked vehicles. Used for hot and cold weather protection against ice, snow and dry rot. - A device made of insulated foam rubber, with added vinyl pieces, that fits over windshield wipers and wiper arms of vehicles, equipment and boats, that protects wiper blades and arms from harsh elements. Using this boot acts as a barrier between harsh weather elements protecting against excessive heat, snow and ice from damaging wipers and arms. By sliding these single piece devices over each wiper blade and arm it provides 100% UV protection while shielding against harsh elements. Wiper blades and arms are protected against damage from sticking to the windshield while vehicle is in a parked position. Additional vinyl strips and/or vinyl lettering assist in easier removal of the device in wintery and excessive heat conditions. | 09-11-2014 |
20150013096 | Attachable Cup for toothbrush - An attachable cup includes a container and an attachable device for a toothbrush, and the attachable device includes at least one part of the container. An attachable device is for attaching a container to a toothbrush. The attachable device uses a fastening method, a gripping method, a clamping method, a locking method or the like to attach the attachable cup to a toothbrush. Once the attachable device attaches the attachable cup to a toothbrush, the operator can use the attachable cup for oral rinsing. | 01-15-2015 |
20160120384 | HOSE SUPPORT MECHANISM FOR VACUUM CLEANER - A hose support mechanism for a vacuum cleaner including a machine body includes at least one elastic support for supporting a hose, wherein the elastic support can elastically deform to mutually buckle with or separate from the machine body. The hose support mechanism can be assembled and disassembled conveniently without using other tools, and can be adapted for hoses with different hose diameters. When the vacuum cleaner is provided with hoses with different hose diameters, there is no need to redesign the hose support mechanism, thereby enhancing the generality of the vacuum cleaner. | 05-05-2016 |
