Space Divider Or The Like With Improved Collapsible Joint Construction

US Patent:
4139101, Feb 13, 1979
Filed:
Dec 23, 1976
Appl. No.:
5/753724
Inventors:
Keivan Towfigh - Medford MA
International Classification:
A47G 500
US Classification:
211 86
Abstract:
A standard and a boom extending from the standard are connected by a mechanism to permit the boom to be pivoted between an upright, locked position and a lowered, collapsed position. A connecting device is employed to attach the boom mechanism to the standard which permits heightwise adjustment of the boom on the standard. The connecting mechanism includes a member having an L-shaped slot which receives a pair of pins extending from the boom. The length of one of the legs of the L-shaped slot is at least equal to the spacing between the pins and the other leg of the slot is longer than the spacing between the pins to lock the device in position when the pins are disposed in the other leg of the slot. The invention is disclosed as being used with a space divider such as a curtain which can be hung from the boom.

Flat Folded Female Urinary Aid

US Patent:
4608046, Aug 26, 1986
Filed:
Jul 3, 1985
Appl. No.:
6/752351
Inventors:
Keivan Towfigh - Medford MA
International Classification:
A61F 544
US Classification:
604329
Abstract:
A urinary aid for use by females includes a flat-folded tube having an end insertable between the labia. The tube is expandable by light hand squeezing to open the inserted end of the tube to a urine-receptive configuration which spread the labia and in which the device may be pressed against the uninary meatus. In one non-reuseable embodiment of the invention, the tube is provided with a thin coating which is temporarily water resistant but which is degradable. In another embodiment of the invention, the device is reuseable. In all embodiments, the device may be considered as disposable because of its low cost of manufacture. The device may be manufactured using simple and economical manufacturing procedures.

A shelving bracket for supporting an end of a shelf is adapted to be attachable at any location along the length of a heightwise extending pole. The bracket is adapted to bear against a side face of a pole and includes at least two guide surfaces engageable with front and rear faces of the pole to define the angle of orientation of the bracket and to maintain the bracket at that angle. The bracket is secured rigidly to the pole by a fastener. A second pole is provided with a similar shelf bracket. Each of the shelf brackets has a shelf-supporting ledge adapted to support an end of a shelf that spans between the poles.
