Title: The dissected empty bottle of water with lid
Inventor: MANJAPRA JEANILE
IPC: B29B17/00
Filed: 2008-01-21
Abstract: This bottle is dissected into three main parts for simplicity. Its main purpose is to make foods in its containers. See Fig. 1 (A to B) is the peg section, (D to E) is the bottom or floret section and (C to E) is one of many ice logs section within and (A to D) is another ice log section. The peg got its name because it looks like a peg. See Figs 2 and 3. The large version is called the funnel. See Fig 9 and 9.1. The base is called a floret or flower because from the make of the empty bottle each has a flower in it. See Fig. 4, 5 and 5.1. All ice logs live conceptually within the empty or full bottle of frozen water. How many can you make? See Figs 6, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 7, 7.1 and 7.2 The three main parts are for producing ice when filled and for producing ice-foods in these general categories. They are MILKS (white and chocolate) fortified with vitamins, all kinds YOGURTS, with berries and trail mix within or just plain; Fruit CUPS with all natural fruits and syrup; JELLOS  of all colors ; JELLO PUDDINGS of all kinds and 100% NATURAL JUICES of all kinds as well as the consideration of the national foods and drinks of countries where this invention may be tried.  See Figs 2,3,4,5and 5.1, 6.2 and 7.1. Figs 8 is from the floret of the 1 liter bottle. Fig 9 and 9.1 are funnel section or peg section of the 1 li ter empty bottle. The funnel can also be a temporary plate, cup, glass, cover for food, funnel and a blow horn for alerting someone in danger. Fig 10 show industrial racks for huge promotion of this invention.   This project uses ice logs AD and CE for examples. Ice logs are not the peg and the floret. They are lengths longer then them. See Fig 7.3 and for rougher uses. See Fig 6.3 , 7.3 and 8. See Fig 8.2 for it's rough uses such as for hikers and bikers ice to use, throw and go. Fig. 6.3 and 7.2 Show how the ice log is used for ready made wrappings for frozen cooked and raw meats and vegetables. See Fig 8. The ice logs are for elegant uses. The elegant side to the ice log would be Fig 7.3 which is served in elegant glasses at places like extravagant hotels and spas. T hey are also for big and tall persons. It becomes rugged again when smashed to create unique ice cube for folks at rowdy pubs and bars.   Used for rescue purposes, just place a nipple onto the peg for babies. It becomes a temporary baby bottle at the scene of a rescue. Children don't need a whole bottle of water, a floret will be sufficient for a person just out of the rubbles. An aggressive victim who want 4 bottles of water would get one bottle, one ice log, one floret and one peg. In other words different strokes for different folks. The ice log allow different portions of water, a means of conservation, in tight times. FEED THE WORLD.

Abstract: A bearing and roller system to mount one or more arms to it. The mounting hardware connects to any pole by opening then clamping around the cylinder or pole with the built in bolts. The bolts are then tightened in a level or plumb matter creating the arm to swing around the pole 360 degrees as many times as the wind will take it. The arm mounts into an engineered circle that is on an angled bearing system to create a very strong mounting area for the designed circle the clamp into, then the arm is now mounted to the circle.  The mounting system is composed of 4 half circle rings that come together to create a full circle around the pole. A casing is the attached to the hardware system to keep out any unnecessary elements that may come in contact with the interior components. The weighted banner that is attached after the hardware is installed will now move freely in the wind actually breaking wind load that is applied to the pole. The banner will also be capable of spinning 360 degrees around the pole in an infinite matter. All parts are replaceable to this system giving it a very long life span.
