A door has a pair of spaced stiles at its side edges, a top rail extending between the upper ends of the rails, and a pair of synthetic resin skins providing the faces of the door and adhesively bonded to the stiles and rail. The skins have opposed flanges along their top and bottom edges which abut to form top and bottom peripheral walls, and they also have opposing spaced lips along the side edges thereof which extend along a portion of the outer surfaces of the stiles. The peripheral walls provided by the flanges have vent openings extending therethrough, and a cellular synthetic resin core is bonded to the skins and fills the interior space between the skins bounded by the stiles, rail and bottom flange. Baffled passages are provided between the vent openings and the interior space. In making She door, after the skins have been assembled and adhered to the stiles and rails, the stiles and flanges effectively seal the interior space which they define and this assembly is placed in a heated press. As a foamable resin mixture is injected under pressure into the interior space and expands therein, air is expelled through the baffled passages and vent openings, and the press precludes bowing outwardly of the skins.

Insulated door with synthetic resin skins

A door has horizontally extending channels in each face adjacent its bottom edge which rest an integrally formed bottom seal and sweep member. The seal member has a body portion with a horizontally disposed transverse wall extending along the bottom edge of the door, upstanding side walls extending along the faces of the door, and generally horizontally and inwardly extending flanges at their upper ends which extend into the door channels. The seal member also has a plurality of depending elements to seal the spacing between the door and threshold, and the channels and flanges have cooperating positioning elements thereon to secure the seal and sweep member in a fixed and predetermined position on the door.

An L-shaped, integrally formed bracket of one-piece construction provides packaging for wrench sockets and like articles. It has a post that is dimensioned and configured to snugly seat within the recess of the mounted socket, and will generally include a member to spread parts of the post and force them into positive engagement with the inner surfaces of the socket recess. The bracket is suited not only for use to protect the packaged article against damage and pilferage at the point-of-sale, but also for purposes of ongoing storage by the consumer.

An assembly for holding a socket driver, an extension, or a spinner includes an L-shaped bracket member which has means thereon for engaging either the head or the shank portion of the tool. The assembly also includes a slide locking member that is engaged with a support wall of the bracket, to trap another portion of the tool (the shank or a section of the handle) and thereby retain the tool in the assembly. The package is adapted for point of sale display to present the article to the customer in an attractive manner, while protecting it against physical damage and pilferage; the slide locking member is capable of removal without damage to the assembly, thereby permitting reuse for storage of the tool part by the purchaser.

Mitre box

A retractable blade knife of the type having an elongate tubular handle and an elongate flat thin blade mounted for longitudinal sliding movement in the handle, is provided with a combination slide and latching member for positioning the blade which includes a slide mounted for sliding movement on the edges of a longitudinal slot in the handle and a flexible thumbpiece extending rearwardly from the slide having a tooth normally engageable with a row of teeth along one edge of the longitudinal slot and being disengageable therefrom when the thumbpiece is flexed inwardly of the handle.

A saw guide subassembly for a mitre box includes a pair of saw guide elements with vertical guide means on their opposed surfaces. Slides are slidably seated on the saw guides and have bearing pads extending towards each other and guide means cooperating with those of the saw guide elements. Biasing means bias the slides upwardly but pressure exerted on the pads by the saw can move the slides downwardly to increase the depth of cut permitted. The cooperating guide means desirably comprise slots in the saw guide elements and web portions in the slides which are seated in the slots.

Improved mounting means is provided for mounting a top viewable liquid vial in a level having an I-beam type frame provided with a through opening in the web communicating with a notch in the adjacent horizontal working surface, the mounting means including a transparent shroud for the vial having a bight portion extending around the vial below the notch forming a magnifying lens and side walls forming side windows protecting the vial. The shroud is clamped between a pair of identical mounting caps which also are clamped to the web around the periphery of the through opening thereby enclosing the shroud and vial assembly and positioning it in the through opening to permit viewing of the vial from the top and sides.
