| 20120063258 | DETACHABLE BUCKET MIXER - A detachable bucket mixer for mixing viscous fluids and compositions while holding the bucket stationary during the mixing process includes a rotational drive and a clamping frame for mounting the rotational drive to a container. The clamping frame includes a barrel having a central axis, and two or more arms extending radially from the barrel. At the distal end of each of the arms is a flange having a claw-shaped grip configured to affix to a rim of the container. The arms may be capable of telescoping in order to accommodate varying diameters of buckets. Extending downward from the barrel is a drive shaft that may include a detachable mixing paddle configured for mixing viscous fluids. When the rotational drive is inserted into the barrel, it is connected to the detachable mixing paddle through the drive shaft to commence mixing. The clamping frame is configured to prevent rotation of the bucket relative to the rotational drive. | 03-15-2012 |
| 20090205279 | DRYWALL TRIMMING ELEMENT WITH COMPOUND LOCKING FEATURE - A drywall trimming element for bridging two sections of drywall is an extruded element having first and second opposing flanges each having an interior surface and an exterior surface. The element is secured to the drywall by joint compound. The interior surfaces are adapted to be positioned on or adjacent to a respective one of the drywall surfaces. The interior and exterior surfaces each define respective surface planes. One or both of the interior and exterior surfaces have a plurality of upstanding longitudinally oriented ribs extending outwardly from the surface. The ribs extend away from their respective surfaces and define a void space between the surface adjacent to the ribs and an end of the ribs, such that a line extending outwardly from and normal to the surface of the flange adjacent to the ribs traverses through the void space and then subsequently contacts the ribs. The void space serves to provide a joint compound locking feature for the trimming element. | 08-20-2009 |
