93 Adjustable bouquet design stand US09499869 2000-02-07 US06394401B1 2002-05-28 Larry St. Peter
The present invention provides a ADJUSTABLE BOUQUET DESIGN STAND which includes a positioning stand and a flower stems receiver. The positioning stand can be adapted to a wall or a floor attachment, and is enabled for being adjusted in height and for pivotal motion around the stand's longitudional axis. The invention also provides for fixed positioning of the flower stems receiver, thus enabling an essentially infinite number of fixed variations of the flower stand's height and attitude necessary for a flower bouquet designing. Additionally, the flower stems receiver is provided with a clamping device which has a manual lever located on the flower stems receiver's peripheral wall and a spring member which is enabled for clamping the flower stems to the inner wall of the stem receiver in a diagonal direction. As the flowers are placed between inner walls of the flower stems receiver, application of pressure by a human hand to the manual lever enables clamping of the flower stems to the inner wall of the receiver with a downwardly directed, and thus a greater clamping force, thereby inhibiting the flowers from being easily pulled from the stems receiver.

98 Apparatus for making a wreath ring US855796 1997-05-12 US5829490A 1998-11-03 Dennis J. Kilbane
Wreath ring making machine having a ram torque stabilizer and an angle plate for imparting an offset angle to one rib arm. The wreath ring has a circular spine and C-shaped ribs disposed about the spine, the ribs having a back and two arms. The machine includes a pneumatic cylinder having a central axis connected to a ram, which is connected to a female die, which moves against a male die. A frame running parallel to the cylinder axis has the cylinder attached at the distal end and the male die attached at the proximal end. The stabilizer includes a stabilizer bracket attached at an intermediate portion of the frame and a corresponding stabilizer follower attached to the ram, where the stabilizer follower is slidably received by the stabilizer bracket, and stabilizes against torque in the ram and cylinder. The stabilizer significantly reduces torque on the cylinder and the resulting maintenance. The angle plate is attached to an inside face of the female die, which forces the corresponding rib arm to assume an angle offset relative to the opposite arm.
