Abstract: In a product for sheltering an individual or individuals from sun, rain, wind or snow, it is known to have a central support shaft for carrying and manipulating the said product. In this invention a significant improvement is made to the structure of the product rendering it superior to existing patented inventions. The improvement consists of an organization of the primary structural elements of the portable shelter in a manner and according to the consideration of formulae that results in a stable product having an eccentric location of the support shaft relative to the central portion of the sheltered field of occupancy. This new composition takes the plan from of a square geometry with chamfered corners. This configuration permits the engagement of two products in twin-performance by use of a snap-on gutter attachment. This double composition permits user advantage during certain spectator-orientated stationary application. The inventive and creative ideas embodied in this invention offer the user/users occupancy of the zone of maximum protection.

Abstract: A combustion-powered, fastener-driving tool comprises a structure defining a combustion chamber and defining a driving piston cylinder, which has a wall and defines an axis.  A nosepiece is mounted to said structure and communicates with the driving piston cylinder.  A driving piston mounting a driving member is arranged to be axially driven within the wall of the driving piston cylinder upon combustion of a fuel in the combustion chamber, so as to drive the driving member from an uppermost position wherein the driving member is retracted from the nosepiece into a lowermost position wherein the driving member is extended into the nosepiece.  A combusted gases-actuated mechanism is employed for feeding fasteners from a collated strip of fasteners individually and successively into the nosepiece.  Combusted gases are diverted from the driving piston cylinder so as to actuate the feeding mechanism when the driving piston is driven.  Combusted gases are taken in through the wall of the driving piston cylinder, at a location between the uppermost position of the driving piston and the position of the driving piston when combusted gases are exhausted through one or more ports in the wall of the driving piston cylinder.
