| 20090235596 | Over-Mount Corner - A quoin formed of individual over-mount corner units constructed as simulated brick to match the adjoining wall panels forming the exterior cover of an exterior wall of a building is provided. The corner units are formed with a front portion configured as courses of brick separated by mortar joints joined to a rear plate that provides a support frame for the corner unit. Multiple standoffs are positioned on the rear plate opposite mortar joints formed on the front portion to provide a location for driving fasteners to mount the corner unit onto the building substructure. The overlapping nature of the corner units with respect to the wall panels allows the wall panels to be cut imprecisely at the exterior corner. The standoffs maintain a predetermined spacing between the building substructure and the rear plate to establish a channel for the drainage of moisture due to condensation or rain infiltration. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20090249632 | COURSING TOOL CALCULATOR - A tool is provided for calculating the length and number of filler design elements to be used to eliminate an irregular gap in a wall being covered with cast veneer wall panels having a series of repeating design elements. The tool includes a ruler having gap measurement, length of cut and number of filler design element scales. The tool also includes a medial slide carried on the ruler. Two measuring points are also provided. The first is carried on the ruler. The second is carried on the medial slide. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20100314423 | GUN HOLSTER - A holster for a long gun such as a shotgun or rifle that provides a safe firearm support and allows for quick aiming and firing of the firearm. Generally, the gun holster includes a base portion for securing to the user, such as to the user's belt, and a support portion for supporting the gun. The support portion includes a bottom wall portion that extends forwardly from a lower edge of the base portion. Several embodiments are disclosed. In some embodiments, the base portion and support portion are integrally formed of a folded fairly flexible material, such as leather. | 12-16-2010 |

| 20080223511 | ADHESIVE DISPENSING SYSTEM - A system for dispensing adhesive onto a surface is provided. This system includes a dispenser and a quantity of discrete units of adhesive releasably deposited on a substrate. The dispenser includes a drive mechanism that further includes an actuator for actuating the dispenser; and a drive wheel, wherein the drive wheel further includes mechanical means for engaging the actuator. An optional supply wheel may be included in the dispenser. The quantity of discrete units of adhesive is releasably deposited on a substrate that may be mounted on the supply wheel or that may simply sit within the dispenser. The substrate further includes means for cooperating with the drive wheel to incrementally advance the substrate a substantially fixed, and predetermined distance upon actuation of the dispenser. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20080300579 | Surgical stapling and cutting instrument with articulatable end effector - A surgical instrument that has an articulatable end effector. Various types of passive articulation joints are disclosed for interconnecting a proximal frame portion to the end effector to facilitate pivotal travel of the end effector relative to the proximal frame portion of the instrument. | 12-04-2008 |
| 20090119965 | PICTURE FRAME - An improved picture frame having an open display pocket mounted behind a viewing aperture for quickly and easily changing the picture displayed within the frame. A storage compartment extends from the rear of the display pocket for conveniently storing a plurality of pictures while they are not being displayed, and a peripheral easel is mounted to the rear of the frame for supporting the frame in either a portrait or landscape orientation without interfering or traversing the display pocket or the storage compartment. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090249718 | METHOD AND CORNER PANEL FOR A VENEER WALL PANEL SYSTEM - A corner panel for a veneer wall panel system includes a body having a fastener section extending in a first plane and a fastenerless section extending in a second plane. The first and second planes define an included corner angle A. In addition, a method is provided for securing a corner panel of a veneer wall panel system to a corner of an underlying support structure. That method includes the step of positioning the corner panel on the corner of the underlying support structure, fastening the corner panel to the support structure only along a first section of the corner panel and maintaining a second section of the corner panel free of any fasteners. In this way, it is possible to decouple any corner stresses between the corner panel and the underlying support structure. | 10-08-2009 |
