Abstract:

A smoking device is provided having a tubular safety shield to inhibit the ability of a rod-like smoking tobacco element from igniting other articles with which the device may come into contact. The safety shield includes a multiplicity of projections that extend relatively inward to engage with a tobacco element and support it in coaxially spaced relationship to the wall of the tubular shield, thereby resulting in an annular chamber enabling essentially uninhibited and free circulation of air. Forming of the projections results in the concurrent formation of the like number of apertures in the shield wall with these apertures effectively disposed to face in a generally axial direction relative to the longitudinal axis of the shield while enabling free airflow.

Abstract:

A deck nailing apparatus is provided having a wheeled carriage for traversing a surfaced structure, and a pair of nail driving devices which are supported by the wheeled carriage in operative relationship to the surface for the driving of nail devices. Control means is incorporated in the apparatus and coupled in controlling relationship with the nailing devices to cause operation of the devices in proportional relationship to the distance traversed by the apparatus. This control means comprises a cam wheel resiliently supported on the carriage to maintain rolling engagement with the structure surface traversed by the apparatus.
