The block has an abutment face pointed in a direction to extend around a corner and face down the direction for the next trim piece to be placed. The abutment face may alternatively face in the longitudinal direction of the elongate member, or face in a direction for the next trim piece to be placed on the same surface as the first trim piece.

A game piece for transferring an object across the surface of a board game or the like. The game piece generally comprises a carrier body having an upper end, a lower end, an entry opening proximate the lower end, and a socket in communication with the entry opening. The entry opening is sized to allow the transfer object to pass therethrough so that the transfer object is thereafter retained within the socket. Additionally, the socket is adapted to receive a second game piece having a similarly...

A strip of flexible material such as paperboard and the like includes end portions shaped to similar opposed jaws. A fold line extends longitudinally of said strip intermediate the side edges thereof, and fold lines extend from the ends of said first mentioned fold line to opposite side edges of the strip forming triangular areas. When the sides of the strip adjoining the apexes of the triangular areas are pressed inwardly, the triangular areas remain flat, flexing the strip into opposed jaws ha...

A frame has transversely spaced frame portions which are suitably connected with one another. Elongated flexible support webs are carried by the frame extending in parallelism with one another and with the frame portions. Flexible tubular sections of synthetic plastic material extend transversely of the frame portions from one to the other, being located in parallelism with each other and arrayed lengthwise of the frame portions. Sheet-material strips are each connected with the end portions of ...

An assembling piece which is easy to manufacture, each piece comprising two intersecting vertical walls, said walls being disposed at right angles to the each other and joined by a common horizontal wall. The exterior surfaces of said vertical walls comprise a protruding flange for cooperation with a horizontal element.

A set of playing pieces for a game of jacks or the like, wherein each playing piece is in the form of a multi-point jack having portions defining at least four extremities spaced at least approximately equi-angularly about, and at at least approximately the same distance from a central core.

The connecting piece (1) serves to compensate for relative position changes between the engine (2) and the carburetor (4). The connecting piece (1) is made of elastic material and has an expansion fold (5) which functions to compensate for length changes. The length...

Distance piece for mounting an object at a distance from a wall, the piece being formed by a block-shaped body with a flat rear side, and a front side extending substantially parallel to the rear side. The front side is provided with a protruding part and with at least one pair of bore holes extending perpendicularly to the rear side and through the body.

Natural or synthetic hair is attached to a semi-spherical stretchable net-like fabric body to the circumferential end of which is attached a flat, flexible and stretchable serpentine comb. Upon attachment to the circumferential edge, the comb assumes a circular configuration wherein the tines extend radially and the comb lies substantially flat in the plane of the circumferential edge of the body.
