International Classification:

B65D 8560
B65D 8578

US Classification:

206525

Abstract:

An ice cream sandwich preparation and storage container set with open top shells having partial bottom walls defining a central aperture. Substantially conforming with the bottom of the shell is an insert disk that effectively seals the aperture while forming a base for the ice cream and cookie sandwich. The bottom periphery of the shell is formed with a flange that fits over the upper rim of another similar container so that the bottom of one container may act as the sealing cover for an underlying container. When it is desired to consume one of the previously prepared and stored sandwiches it may be easily extracted from the container by, after removing the cover, pushing up on the insert disk through the aperture with a thumb or forefinger.

International Classification:

A63H 1700

US Classification:

46204

Abstract:

A toy pick-up vehicle combination including a plurality of playing objects positionable upon a supporting surface such as a floor or the like. A toy vehicle is provided for picking up the playing objects and includes a vehicle body having a playing object receptacle. Wheels are provided for the vehicle body for moving the vehicle over the supporting surface. A spongy, resilient paddle wheel is rotatably mounted on the vehicle body for rotation with the wheels for engagement with the playing objects on the supporting surface and for moving the objects upwardly into the receptacle.

Assignee:

Marvin Glass & Associates - Chicago IL

International Classification:

B28B 1900

US Classification:

425173

Abstract:

An extrusion implement includes a pair of generally cylindrical housing portions connected to one another by sets of complementary threads to permit a telescoping of one portion into the other. An open end of the smaller cylindrical portion is partially closed or restricted by one of a plurality of end caps providing various shaped apertures. A viscous material, such as modeling clay, is inserted within the cylindrical portions and a biasing device is provided to constantly urge the viscous material outwardly through the aperture. Relative rotation of the housing portions causes a telescoping effect to regulate the amount of pressure applied by the biasing device. An end cap is pivotally mounted to close the opening when the implement is not in use.

International Classification:

B67D 562

US Classification:

222146C

Abstract:

A device for chilling fluids includes a cooling chamber for containing cooling media such as ice or the like. The wall of the cooling chamber includes a mounting arm for supporting a container of fluid generally in an inverted position. A fluid conduit is positioned within the cooling chamber in contact with the cooling media. The fluid conduit includes a removable coupler at its upper end for coupling the open end of the fluid container to the conduit and a check valve to prevent accidental spilling of the container. The lower end of the conduit includes a valve to allow selective flow of fluid from the container into the conduit for cooling and out through the valve into a suitable receptacle such as a drinking glass. In an alternate embodiment, the cooling chamber is generally rectangular in shape and the fluid conduit comprises a thin, sloping heat exchange element mounted within the cooling chamber. The heat exchange unit includes a sinuous path for the fluid and, preferably, a flat metal side for engagement with fluid on one side and ice on the other to transfer heat away from the fluid being cooled.

International Classification:

G11B 1914

US Classification:

1791004D

Abstract:

A programmable phonograph record changer which provides automatic sound track selection for each of a plurality of records played sequentially by the record changer. The record changer includes an electro-optic scanner mounted on the pickup arm for sensing the land areas located between the various sound tracks of a disc-type record. An auxiliary tone arm lift and sweep mechanism is controlled by a digital logic system connected to the electro-optic scanner to drive the tone arm across various bands which the user does not want to be reproduced. The logic system includes a programmable memory which stores the preselected sound tracks of a sequence of records which the user intends to be reproduced. A land sensing circuit includes a means for developing a threshold signal which varies with the record surface reflectivity characteristics.
