RE361313, Mar 9, 1999

Filed:

Sep 21, 1995

Appl. No.:

8/531768

Inventors:

Michael R. Schramm - Pacific WA

International Classification:

B65B 104
B65B 304

US Classification:

141 98

Abstract:

The spill resistant bubble solution container is an invention that because of its unique geometry and design, prevents spillage of liquid when filled to the fill line or below, and oriented in any position. It is principally intended for use by young children in avoiding the spillage of bubble solution.

US Patent:

Filed:

Jul 1, 1993

Appl. No.:

8/086541

Inventors:

Michael R. Schramm - Pacific WA

International Classification:

B65B 104
B65B 304

US Classification:

141 98

Abstract:

The spill resistant bubble machine is an invention that because of its unique geometry and design, prevents spillage of liquid when filled to the fill line or below, and oriented in any position. At the same time the invention is capable of automatic and continuous bubble generation. It is principally intended for use by young children in the hands free automatic generation of bubbles, especially while riding a bicycle, without spilling its liquid contents.

International Classification:

B64C 332

US Classification:

244 54

Abstract:

An improvement of a vertical fin (18) attached to a pylon strut (14) that is cantilevered from a wing rear spar (16) of a supersonic aircraft (9), the improved pylon (10) for mounting heavy assemblies such as an engine (8) to an aircraft wing (12). The fin (18) is a thin, elongate member having a ratio of fin height (36) to fin width (38) of about between 3:1 to 5:1. The ratio of fin length(34) to fin width (38) is preferably equal to or greater than 30:1. The fin at its lower surface (24) is attached to an upper surface (20) of the strut (14). The fin (18) preferably extends forward over a portion of the upper surface (22) of the wing (12) and is additionally attached thereto. One embodiment of a fin construction includes a U-shaped lower channel (40), an inverted U-shaped upper channel (42), a pair of substantially parallel upright sidewalls (32), an arcuate upper closeout member (46), and aerodynamic seals 48 as required. The area defined by the upright sidewalls (32) and the lower and upper channels (40), (42) is filled by a partitioned middle material (44), such as honeycomb core.

Michael R. Schramm - Pacific WA

International Classification:

B65B 104

US Classification:

141 98

Abstract:

An apparatus for producing both bubbles and streams of water that because of its unique geometry and design, will when oriented in any position prevent spillage of its bubble solution when filled to the fill line or below, and is capable of automatic and continuous bubble generation while simultaneously generating amusing water streams. It is principally intended for use by young children as a lawn water toy as well as a bubble creating device.

Filed:

May 10, 1994

Appl. No.:

8/241142

Inventors:

Michael R. Schramm - Pacific WA

International Classification:

F16G 700

US Classification:

474253

Abstract:

A tool-less installable, spare drive belt is an invention that allows the user, without tools, to quickly and easily install the drive belt. Opposite ends of the continuous belt are supplied with male end having coupling prongs, and a female end having complementary prong retaining holes. A continuous loop belt is then formed by wrapping the belt around desired pulleys or other mechanisms and inserting the coupling prongs on the male end into the prong retaining holes in the female end. The length of the belt is adjusted by selectively positioning the coupling prongs on the male end in a predetermined relationship with the prong retaining holes in the female end. The belt is also length-adjustable by selectively trimming off a portion of the coupling prongs from the male end and plugging all or a portion of the remaining coupling prongs on the male plug end into the female end. The belt is principally intended for field installation.
