24 Method and apparatus for molding a reinforced, attachable ice block US11161261 2005-07-28 US20070022762A1 2007-02-01 Scott Ireland
A method and apparatus for molding a block or sheet of ice that is resistant to breakage and can be readily attached to an external object such as a ski, sled, or other device for the purpose of sliding said objects down or along non-snowy or non-icy terrain. The ice molding apparatus consists of three, typically plastic, parts: a container, a lid, and a grate, all just large enough to fit horizontally into the freezer portion of a standard home side-by-side refrigerator/freezer. The grate is suspended from the container edges down into the container and below the lid, with a portion of the grate extending outside of the container. The lid is mounted on the grate, with the container, grate, and lid all forming a seal to prevent water from easily spilling from the mold apparatus during the ice making and freezing process. The ice that is formed encapsulates the grid that provides structural reinforcement to the ice block and makes it more resistant to breakage than comparably sized ice blocks when impacted by external physical forces. Additionally, a portion of the grate extends outside of the mold (container and lid) and contains a snap latch or other mechanism of similar purpose for attachment to a mating feature on a sled, ski, or other device.

37 Systems and methods of artificial snow dispersal US13468018 2012-05-09 US08776413B2 2014-07-15 Michael Willett
Systems and methods of artificial snow dispersal are disclosed in which rapid evaporating snow is produced from a fluid. Two lines, an air line and a fluid line, are configured to substantially reach the top of or near the top of the tree. The respective lines may be configured to move air and fluid to the top of the tree. At the top of the tree there may be a nozzle with air escape holes configured around the exterior of the component. An output membrane may attach to the middle of the nozzle. The fluid line emits a small amount of fluid into the fabric. The air that passes into the fabric causes small foam bubbles. The air that passes through the external section of the output membrane may then peel the foam bubbles off thereby creating artificial snow.
