FURNITURE STABILIZING ASSEMBLY
A furniture stabilizing assembly for keeping furniture level on a support surface includes at least one spacer that may be inserted between a leg of furniture and a support surface. Thus, the furniture may sit level on the support surface. The at least one spacer has an adjustable height. Thus, the at least one spacer may space the leg of furniture a selected distance from the support surface.
Reclosable Adhesive Strip
An adhesive strip including a support, a substrate and a plurality of fixing elements protruding from the substrate. The fixing elements and substrate are formed from a photo-curable adhesive composition that includes component A: a (meth)acrylate monomer or oligomer having at least two (meth)acrylate groups and having an average molecular weight M.sub.w from 700 g/mol to 7000 g/mol; component B: a (meth)acrylate monomer or oligomer having at least two (meth)acrylate groups and having an average molecular weight M.sub.w equal or greater than 150 g/mol and less than 700 g/mol; component C: a photoinitiator; and component D: a polythiol. A reclosable fastener can be formed with the adhesive strip such as a reclosable male-to-male adhesive based on a fastener having two adhesive strips.
IMPROVEMENTS IN OR RELATING TO SHOWER RODS
A shower rod assembly enhances the support provided by frictionally engaging the ends of a shower rod with facing walls. Support brackets are engaged with the external surface of the rod and fixed to the walls independently of the rod ends. Locking facilities are then provided which engage with the rod and the support brackets to bias the support brackets against the facing walls whilst also locking the rod in position.
WALL-MOUNTABLE ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF USE
An assembly that is removably mountable to a wall, the assembly including a base plate and a mounting plate that is asymmetrically deflectably coupled to the base plate.
CLIP SYSTEMS
A clip system relates to a sealed package having a picture or motivational item and a clip. The picture or motivational item has a double sided sticky adhesive with a protective layer. The protective layer is then removed and applied to a surface. The device can be applied to needles to help people overcome their fear. The device may also be applied to needles, heart monitors, walls and other surfaces. Various clips for holding medical instruments are also enabled.
Fastener
A fastener (1) with a main body (2) whose external surfaces, with the exception of a fastening side (3) that serves to effect fastening to an object, are sealed up in a diffusion-proof way. The main body (2) has a discrete arrangement of reservoirs (6) opening out to the fastening side (3) that have a filler (7, 7a, 7b) with a hydrophilic material and/or moisture. An aerobic adhesive can be applied to the fastening side (3); hardening of the aerobic adhesive is brought about by the filler (7, 7a, 7b).
AIR CONDITIONER / HEATER ATTACHMENT SYSTEMS
An AC/Heater attachment systems has various types of devices to attach a filter system to a ducting port. A magnetic U shaped device has a raised lip for placement of a filter therein; the device is made from naturally magnetic material or is coated with a magnetic paint. Diamond clip type attachment devices are attachable to a filter in slots precut into a filter. Further, a slidable second associated device cooperates with the first to effect a variable one dimensional size. A 3D logo can be affixed along a surface of one of the devices taught herein. A double sided tape can be attached along a surface of the filter attachment device in lieu of a magnetic attachment mechanism. A collapsible and adjustable devices are also envisioned with protrusion and hinge actuation devices.
Furniture
Furniture articles have an integrally formed shell that generally has rounded features, the shell diminishing in circumference outwardly from a mounting surface, and a mounting portion configured to secure the shell to the mounting surface. A perimeter edge of the shell defines a mounting plane against which the mounting surface is to be secured. When the shell is secured to the mounting surface, the mounting portion is inaccessible and hidden from view. Furniture includes a shelving unit, a desk unit, a seating unit, and a bed.
STICK-ON HANGERS FOR LAYFLAT DUCTING SYSTEM
An system for drying a wet area of a building includes an elongated flexible duct and a plurality of hanger structures engaged with the duct at locations spaced therealong. Each hanger structure includes a connector tab adapted for engagement with a suspension member and a pair of diverging adhesive panels for adhesive engagement with the duct. The suspension members engage ceiling members to support the duct from an air source to the wet area.
Stations for portable electronic devices
A station for at least one portable electronic device includes a base having a substantially vertical and forward-facing wall and at least one suction cup secured to the wall to temporarily secure the portable electronic device to the wall in a position that the portable electronic device can be viewed and operated while secured to the wall. More than one suction cup can be provided to secure the portable electronic device to the wall.
