A vacuum system which uses water as a filtration medium to effectively capture dirt and dust particles. The vacuum system uses a canister or tank, which can be placed on a wheeled mobile frame for mobility. Within the tank, a removeable insert includes a number of equally spaced annular plates with a first of the annular plates fitting snugly against the outside wall of the tank and the next plate fitting snugly against the outside wall of a central cylindrical column. The plates then continue to alternate from outside wall of the tank to the outside wall of the column to form alternating gaps and, thus, a serpentine airflow path. The bottom portion of the tank is filled with a quantity of water sufficient to cover the bottom of an air intake port. A blower draws air, along with accompanying debris, from the intake port through the water. The water filtered air, which now contains a considerable quantity of entrained water, is then drawn through the serpentine path wherein the resulting varying air speeds, along with the eddy currents generated by this path, effectively remove the entrained water from the air.

An apparatus for selectively attaching strips of an encodable material bearing a heat activatable adhesive to a document or for removing the strips therefrom generally comprises a strip attachment assembly and a strip removal assembly. The attachment assembly includes a set of document feed rollers and strip feed rollers which deliver the documents and the strips to an alignment subassembly where the document and the strip are properly aligned. A cutter cuts the strip to match the length of the document and the aligned document and strip pass by a heater which heats the heat activatable adhesive. The strip secured to the document by the heat activatable adhesive is sealed thereto by a pair of sealing rollers. The strip removal assembly comprises a passageway having a heater extending along one side and an obstruction extending across a portion of the passageway. A document having a strip secured thereto may be advanced along the passageway so that the heater heats the heat activatable adhesive connecting the strip to the document. The obstruction engaging only the strip then biases the strip away from the document so as to remove the strip.

A cart comprises a load carrying bed, a front wheel carriage, a rear wheel carriage and a handle. The bed telescopes longitudinally to allow for loads of different lengths which are positionable directly upon the bed. A pair of front side arms and a pair of rear side arms are also telescopingly received relative to the bed and are adjustable laterally to provide for loads having different widths. The cart is collapsible into a low profile configuration for transport or storage.

An ignition system bypass unit for quick and easy connection to an electronic automobile ignition system having malfunctioning electronic components. The unit bypasses electronic ignition components to apply a string of pulses across the primary winding of the engine ignition coil. These pulses induce a corresponding string of high voltage pulses in the ignition coil secondary winding for distribution to the engine spark plugs to allow at least temporary engine operation.
