Abstract:
A three-dimensional dry erase board is fabricated in a vacuum forming process using a suitable thermoplastic material laid over a mold of any desired three-dimensional surface. The three-dimensional dry erase board can be fashioned into any three-dimensional surface, with it replicating well-known persons, objects, logos, scenery, or the like. The dry erase board retains its markable and erasable qualities of the three-dimensional surface.
Abstract:
A hygiene system for dispensing a hygiene product includes a hygiene system housing. The hygiene system housing has a mounting portion and a surface portion attached to the mounting portion. The mounting portion is mounted to a mounting surface. The hygiene system includes a dispensing mechanism disposed within an interior of the hygiene system housing between the mounting portion and the surface portion. The dispensing mechanism is used to dispense the hygiene product. The hygiene system includes a display structure attached to the surface portion. The display structure supports a display medium disposed between an outer surface of the surface portion and an inner surface of the display structure. The display structure is substantially transparent such that the display medium is visible through the display structure.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a metal-sheet board or blackboard with magnetic features having two or three movements, which plots and represents reality in four dimensions (horizontal, vertical, depth and time) and which describes reality objectively, in which a T-shaped ruler is moved on a rail along the horizontal or X axis by a digital stepper motor controlled by a driver and software on the computer (horizontal movement). Furthermore, a tool truck surrounding the T-shaped ruler moves along the entire length (vertical movement) or Y axis thereof, actuated by a digital stepper motor controlled by a driver, which is in turn controlled by software on the computer, with these two movements controlled by mathematical speed and acceleration functions.
Abstract:
An object locator system comprises a transmitter comprising circuitry to generate and emit a radio frequency interrogation signal representing one of a plurality of unique codes, a plurality of receivers each recognizing one of the plurality of unique codes and each comprising an audible indicator triggered by recognition of the unique code in the interrogation signal, and a dry erase surface coupled to the transmitter. The dry erase surface may be coupled to the transmitter through a moveable panel. The panel can be coupled to a casing of the transmitter. An alternate mechanism for coupling the dry erase surface to the transmitter is through a transmitter docking pad. The front surface area of the transmitter docking pad is greater than the front surface area of the transmitter with at least 20% of the front surface area of the transmitter docking pad covered by the dry erase surface.
Abstract:
A message creation and display vessel includes a fluid containing vessel with a base that extends into a flexible surrounding sidewall that terminates in an aperture portion. Further included is a waterproof flexible message display face adhered to a portion of the flexible surrounding sidewall. Also included is a message inscription implement that is adjacent to the vessel, the message inscription implement has an ink that can create a message on the waterproof display face while wet with water. Further the ink can be manually removed from the waterproof display face, to operationally facilitate a message to be added and removed from the message display face in a water wet external environment.
Abstract:
An armored door panel includes a planar device having a layered arrangement including a protection layer comprised of a ballistic material and an outer surface layer arranged on the outer side of the protection layer. The planar device is affixed to an existing door to prevent ballistic projectile from penetrating the door.
Abstract:
A mobile, releasably attachable, white-board comprises a pad formed of polyurethane having a composition of polymer and catalyst to impart a tacky character to at least the inner surface so that the inner surface is capable of removable tacky attachment to a support surface without additional adhesive. A dry-erase sheet is affixed to the pad.
Abstract:
Solvent-based coatings having writable-erasable surfaces are provided. The coatings have many desirable attributes. For example, the coatings cure rapidly under ambient conditions, have low VOC emissions upon curing, and have reduced tendency to form ghost images, even after prolonged normal use.
Abstract:
A reusable and replaceable tool label has a thin rigid body, an adhesive coating, and a removable liner. The thin rigid body is built from first face and a second face, which are connected by a lateral surface. The first face is a writable surface, and is used to record measurements, notes, and other information to the label. The second face allows the label to be attached to tools and other surface, by means of the adhesive coating that is placed on the second face. To prevent the label from sticking to a surface during packaging, transport, and storage, a removable liner is placed over the adhesive coating. The removable liner has a linear cut that makes the removable liner easier to grab. A tab may be connected to the removable linear to make peeling the removable liner away from the adhesive coating even easier.
Abstract:
Dry-erase drawing sheets, a drawing apparatus, and a dry-erase drawing kit are described. The drawing sheets have a non-lenticular or a lenticular lens arrangement on a top surface, material layers comprising a body of the sheet, and images printed on surfaces of one or more of the material layers. The images are configured to sufficiently interact with the lens arrangement to exhibit a three-dimensional visual and/or animated effect when viewed through the top surface. The drawing sheets also include a dry-erase compatible layer overlying the top surface. The drawing apparatus includes a frame that has a central opening and a backing member that releasably couples to the frame. Together the frame and backing member retain the drawing sheets within the central opening of the frame during use. The drawing sheets, drawing apparatus, and one or more dry-erase crayons or markers are provided in the kit.
