A method for conveying a message through a simulated flower allows a printed message to be imprinted onto a writing sheet before the writing sheet is transformed into a folded simulated flower. The writing sheet is transformed in a manner such that the printed message is completely or partially concealed from view. The folded simulated flower is removably fastened to a simulated flower stem and an at least one artificial flower leaf is fixed onto either the folded simulated flower or the simulated flower stem. The folded simulated flower may be separated from the simulated flower stem. The printed message may then be displayed by unraveling the folded simulated flower back into the writing sheet. After the printed message has been viewed, the writing sheet may be refolded in order to reform the folded simulated flower. The folded simulated flower may then be refastened to the simulated flower stem. |

An object of the present invention is to achieve an artificial soap flower which does not lose its shape when only partly used and a flower bath or a petal bath which does not produce garbage. The petals made of a soap material constituting a flower are separately prepared one by one, and the petals are adhered with a highly hydrophilic adhesive to create the artificial flower. |

A personalized keepsake is constructed to resemble a flowering plant having petals or leaves upon which personal messages or other indicia are printed or inscribed. When the keepsake is assembled the messages or indicia are displayed. Messages and indicia gathered before construction of the keepsake are assembled prior to the giving of the keepsake. In one version, a series of simulated plant stems are formed in various shapes and sizes, to which simulated flower assemblies are attached. Each stem has a specifically-configured peg which fits into a similarly-shaped socket formed on a mount attached to a base-supported holder. A method for creating and assembling the keepsake is also described. |

A fluid absorbent structure adapted to absorb fluids oozing from foodstuffs on its contacting surface with the foodstuffs even when the fluid absorbent structure is in a slanted position against the container bottom. A drip sheet includes an upper sheet, a lower sheet and an absorbent sheet interleaved between these upper and lower sheets. The upper sheet includes a perforated region and non-perforated region. The non-perforated region is formed with a display element which is visually recognized from an upper surface of the upper sheet. The upper sheet is formed with grooves which are depressed from the upper surface of the upper sheet toward a lower surface facing the absorbent sheet and at least partially overlaps with the perforations. The grooves include a first segment extending along a longitudinal imaginary center line, and second and third segment intersecting the first segment. The lower sheet is formed with a plurality of perforations which are breathable and liquid-permeable. |

A telecommunications pole is wrapped along substantially its entire length with fabric, polymeric film, or weather-resistant paper, which displays camouflage, such as camouflage simulating bark or camouflage simulating foliage, and which is attached detachably to the pole. The fabric, film, or paper is wrapped around the pole in separate pieces, one above another along the pole, or a single piece. Each piece is attached detachably to itself via a releasable fastener or releasable fasteners, preferably a hook-and-loop fastener and alternatively a series of snap fasteners, or a zipper. Each piece may be suspended from the pole before being attached detachably to itself. |

An antenna support structure is in the form of a tree. The structure includes an armature and a plurality of pipes connected to the armature to define a skeleton. A layer of epoxy is applied over the skeleton and is surface molded to resemble the bark of actual tree trunks, limbs and branches. Artificial foliage is then assembled to the limbs and branches to resemble the leaves or needles of a tree. Antenna mounting assemblies are joined to the skeleton and positioned so that the receiving and transmitting antennas mounted thereon are largely hidden from view by the limbs, branches and foliage of the tree. The materials from which the limbs, branches and foliage are fabricated have been specifically selected so as to not interfere with the radio signals being transmitted from or received by the antennas. The antenna support structure is capable of supporting antennas in an inconspicuous manner which does not detract from the aesthetics of the location in which it is installed. |

Countermeasures apparatus is disclosed for attenuating radiation by absoron, reflection, and/or scattering, whether the radiation is reflected by or emanates from a target to be protected. The countermeasures apparatus comprises an artificial tree having a plurality of leaves disposed between the target to be protected and radiation sensors whereby the radiation directed from the target to the sensors is attentuated, the radiation being of a plurality of different wavelengths. Attenuating means are disposed on the leaves and take the form of an array of electrically conductive particles forming dipoles whose lengths are chosen to be 0.48 or approximately one-half of the wavelengths of the wavelength of the radiation to be defeated. The dipoles of the array are spaced from each other a spacing within an optimum range of one-half to one of the wavelength of the radiation of interest to effect coherent absorption and scattering of this radiation. |

PURPOSE: To provide a three-dimensional molded object with a scattering type liquid-crystal element, which can be used in the interior or the like, and manufacture therefor.
CONSTITUTION: A high-polymer scattering type liquid-crystal element which employs a bendable thin plastic base board is cut into a leaf or petal shape and press-deformed while heating to form a part of free shape and prepare an artificial flower 11 which is a new three-dimensional molded part of arbitrary shape by combining the part of free shape. The transparent electrodes of respective parts consisting of high-polymer scattering type liquid-crystal element is wired to a voltage control mechanism 14 through a stalk part, and switching a transparent condition and a scattering condition is possible by presence/ absence of voltage application to the transparent electrode from the voltage control mechanism 14.

PURPOSE: To allow an observer to enjoy by providing a flower-opening or closing mechanism and a temperature-displaying mechanism in a decorative imitation flower placed in a room as an interior decoration.
CONSTITUTION: The first invention is characterized by providing a flower comprising openable or closable pedals at the tip of a cylindrical stem, extending a wire for opening or closing the pedals to the root part of the cylindrical stem through the cylindrical stem, providing a light sensor at the root part of the cylindrical stem, and further providing a wire-driving means for opening or closing the pedals in response to the strength of light detected with the light sensor through the wire. The second invention is characterized in that the pedals are formed of cardboard, etc., which has been coated with a temperature-sensitive coloring agent discolored according to the temperature.
