The present invention is a device for installing and removing partially obstructed, upward-facing lightbulbs. It is comprised of a gripping element, a weight, a flexible rotary shaft having two ends, and an extension pole having two ends. The gripping element, itself, is comprised of a hollow, three-dimensional gripping element body having an inner and outer surface and a plurality of flexible, tactile members. The hollow, three-dimensional gripping element body is open at one end and closed at the other. At the open end, the plurality of flexible, tactile members are arranged about a peripheral rim at the opening. When the device is placed over a lightbulb, the flexible, tactile members capture the lightbulb. Rotating the extension pole will cause the lightbulb to rotate.

An interchangeable adapter and head piece for changing a light bulb that includes a head piece that has a base plate with a primary gripping member and a secondary gripping member for engaging the light from the platform of the first side of the base plate away from the second side.

A universal gripping unit configured for attachment to poles or handles or varying lengths to accommodate light bulbs at varying heights or elevations. The universal gripping unit includes a platform and collar; an adhesive pad attached to an upper surface of the platform; a non-adhesive cover removably attached to the adhesive pad; and a threaded female protrusion extending from an underside of the platform wherein the threaded female protrusion is configured to receive a threaded male portion of a pole or handle.

An interchangeable adapter for changing a light bulb that includes a head piece that has a base plate with opposite first and second sides and that defines a platform at the first side. A primary gripping member extends from the platform of the first side of the base plate away from the second side. The primary gripping member is positioned substantially centrally with respect to the platform to engage the light bulb. A secondary gripping member extends from the platform of the first side of the base plate away from the second side. The secondary gripping member surrounds the primary gripping member and is configured to grip the light bulb. An engagement member extends from the second side of the base plate away from the first side for engaging a holder of the adapter.

An object of the present invention relates to a thermosetting adhesive sheet that, without the use of a metal reinforcement sheet, which is regarded as a major factor responsible for an increase in thickness of electronic devices and other devices, reinforces a flexible printed circuit to such a level that detachment of mounted components, for example, is prevented, prevents warping, and has good electrical conductivity. The present invention relates to a thermosetting adhesive sheet configured to be used to reinforce a flexible printed circuit. The thermosetting adhesive sheet includes a woven fabric, a nonwoven fabric, or a metal base of 50 m or less thickness and a thermosetting adhesive layer adjacent to at least one surface of the woven fabric, the nonwoven fabric, or the metal base of 50 m or less thickness.

A light bulb holder including a bulb retaining body for holding a light bulb during installation of the bulb in a light fixture. The bulb retaining body generally includes an attachment member for removably or permanently affixing said retaining body to a ladder and at least one retaining slot unit supported on said attachment member including a base and opposed resilient fingers defining an opening for receiving a light bulb.

An extendable multi-tool comprising an extendable pole and a head unit selectively detachably coupled together. The head unit comprises a grasping mechanism configured to engage a light bulb, a control switch and a rotation mechanism. The control switch configured to cause the grasping mechanism to become secured to a light bulb, and to cause the rotation mechanism to automatically detect when a light bulb is secured to the grasping mechanism and then rotate the grasping unit and the secured light bulb in a first direction based on the position of the control switch. The tool further comprises an arm unit for positioning the grasping mechanism in a desired configuration to engage the light bulb, wherein the arm member is coupled to the grasping mechanism.
