A vehicle wheel illumination device. The illumination device utilizes a source of light, such as automotive light bulbs, to project light onto the inside portion of a wheel's rim. Providing that the wheel's rim has at least one slot or other opening therethrough, the light will emanate out of the wheel's rim, being visible to an individual outside of said vehicle. The device utilizes a frame having a pair of arms, each arm connecting with a bulb and socket. This frame attaching to the frame of the vehicle.

The subject matter of this specification pertains to improvements intended to be utilized in a ribbon inking machine having a frame, a drum mounted on the frame, a carriage movably mounted on the frame so as to be capable of being used with respect to the drum, a ribbon feed roller mounted on the carriage, a ribbon inking structure mounted on the carriage, and a ribbon takeup roller mounted on the frame. Such a machine is preferably constructed to include a pressing element mounted on guide rods so as to be capable of being moved towards and away from the drum. Solenoids are used to control the tension on bands mounted on the pressing element and passing around the guide rods. When they are tightened they hold the pressing element relative to the guide rods. A mechanical mechanism provided for raising and lowering the pressing element is located on the guide rods. Although this mechanism and these bands are intended for use in a ribbon inking machine as described it is considered that other uses will be found for them.

A flow control structure which is primarily intended to be utilized as a pressure compensating emitter in agricultural watering or irrigation can be constructed utilizing a housing having a flow control member located therein. The housing employed has an internal cylinder connected by a passage leading to a valve seat. The flow control member extends from the cylinder to adjacent to the valve seat. The extremity of the flow control member within the cylinder is formed as a piston so that the flow control member may be moved by fluid pressure. A channel means connects this first extremity of the flow control member with the interior of the passage at a point which is adjacent to and spaced from the other extremity of the flow control member. This other extremity is shaped so as to cooperate with the valve seat in order to limit flow between this other extremity and the valve seat in accordance with the position of the flow control member.
