A court in India has sentenced 31 people to life in prison over the killings of 33 Muslims in a single house during severe sectarian riots in the state of Gujarat in 2002.
The 31 defendants, all Hindus, were found guilty of murder, attempted murder, arson, rioting and criminal conspiracy after the victims were burned alive in the building.
"Out of the 73 accused, 31 are guilty and 42 are acquitted of all charges," judge SC Srivastava told the special court near Sardarpura village, where the 33 Muslims sought shelter in a small house on the night of February 28, 2002.
The victims had crowded into the house to escape the rioters, who set the building alight. Authorities uncovered 28 bodies at the scene, with five others dying later of their injuries.
During the violence in the western state of Gujarat, witnesses said baying Hindu mobs surrounded and raped Muslim women, then poured kerosene down their throats and on their children and threw lit matches at them.
Wednesday's verdicts followed earlier convictions over riot-related violence.
In some of India's worst inter-faith clashes since independence in 1947, about 2,000 people died in a wave of anti-Muslim unrest triggered by a train fire in which 60 Hindu pilgrims were burnt alive.
The case is one of nine trials being held in India in connection with the violence following the train fire, and is one of the first in which convictions have been secured.
The Hindu pilgrims on the train were returning from the town of Ayodhya, another flashpoint for religious unrest after a mosque was destroyed in 1992 by Hindus, leading to separate riots that killed thousands of people, mostly Muslims.
Dispute over responsibility
Wednesday's verdicts, which come after years of accusations that authorities dragged their heels in prosecuting Hindus, split activists campaigning for justice.
"This is the first time in 60 years that so many people have been convicted in a case of communal violence," Teesta Setelvad, secretary of the Citizens for Justice and Peace (CJP) group, told the NDTV news channel.
"It is wrong to say that the big ones have been let off. All the accused in the case are big agriculturists, land owners and influential people."
But other groups representing riot victims said the 42 acquittals due to lack of evidence revealed how many offenders would never been punished.
"So many of them had been identified but still they were not convicted," said activist Sandhya Gokhale, vowing further efforts to pursue the guilty.
Responsibility for the train fire has been the subject of fierce dispute between Hindus and Muslims, but in March this year a court handed 11 death sentences and 20 life terms to Muslims convicted over the blaze.
The government of Gujarat, which is still headed by Hindu nationalist chief minister Narendra Modi, was accused by rights groups of tacitly supporting the rioters.
State authorities were also accused of dragging their heels in prosecuting Hindus over the riots.
Modi, who is seen by many in the main opposition Bharatiya Janata Party as a future candidate for prime minister, denies all accusations about his handling of the riots and has never apologised for the violence.

Thank you for being a part of Musings this past year! I hope you'll be part of her future as well.
I remember when Musings had a hand full of readers and several years later I still feel like I'm talking to myself when I type up blog posts but you comment, you tweet, you communicate with me daily, and I realize I'm not talking to myself at all…I'm talking to a great big bunch of friends who happen to be as crazy about makeup as I am.
If it was a great year for you, may it continue to be a good one through 2011 and if it was a bad one, may you have a fresh start and a better horizon ahead.
Enjoy your journey into 2011! May it be safe, healthy, and happy!
I'll see you all really soon for what I hope will be another fine year of babblings and Musings from me to you.
Happy New Year friends!
Hey there!
Apologies for the lack of posts today. I admit that I was busy procrastinating a majority of my day away playing W0W and proceeding to head out to a movie, dinner, and semi-annual sale hunting with friends soon after. I normally have a backlog of posts but didn't get a chance to edit, crop photos, and schedule them. In other words, I got lazy and let the addiction of W0W set in, give a sister a break, I haven't played in two months, in geek time that's two years.
I'm making up for it now though by inviting you to enter the 12 Days of Christmas Giveaways on Musings!
As I said in each post, these giveaways would close after the Holiday season was over. Officially I consider that Monday so please go ahead and enter if you haven't done so already as there are still 11 Giveaways open, links below!
Good Luck!
- Day 1-(Closed, Winners selected, alerted, and goodies shipped out)
- Day2-Snow Fairy
- Day 3-Wet n' Wild Holiday Palettes
- Day 4-Beadpassion Etsy Package

Take Interstate 95 north for about 20 miles and you will find yourself in Florida's very own Hollywood, a classic Sunshine State beach town. Home to three oceanfront parks and named a Blue Wave Certified Clean Beach by the Clean Beaches Council for 10 consecutive years, many Floridians are finding great Hollywood apartments for rent due to the city's stellar reputation. With a growing population of more than 143,000 people, Hollywood is becoming one of Florida's most sought-after communities.
Hollywood saw the majority of its growth in the 1950s and 1960s, but the city was officially incorporated in 1925. Before its municipal charter, the city was nothing more than a vast stretch of tomato farms, pine trees and palmetto plants. Joseph Young was the first wealthy settler to survey the land and got a vision for his very own "dream city." He built large boulevards and roads on a parcel of land less than 30 square miles, and a small community began to grow. During the 1920s after the construction of the Hollywood Land and Water Company and the Hollywood Beach Casino, like so many other cities in southern Florida at the time, Hollywood became a winter vacation playground for many northern industrial tycoons.
Known as the "Diamond of the Gold Coast," residents flocked to the area after World War II, and today the city is looking forward to a bright future. Hollywood's cultural diversity is giving the area significant size increases and further opportunities for businesses to grow and prosper. Its close proximity to universities and Miami International Airport gives Hollywood the resources it needs to compete in the global marketplace and remain one of Florida's finest communities.
Since Hollywood remains one of Florida's top tourist attractions, the leading private industries in the area are related to arts, entertainment, recreation and accommodation. However, there are growing fields in management and sales, according to simplyhired.com. Hollywood is also home to Heico, one of the most successful corporations that build aerospace, defense and electronics solutions for business and military aircraft.
Many students in the area get their secondary education at Broward College. Home to a diverse student population and convenient location, finding Hollywood rentals close to campus is a great idea for scholars coming into the area each semester. Hollywood's location also provides students easy access to the University of Miami, one of the country's leading research facilities and universities. With 12 schools offering undergraduate, graduate and doctoral degrees, there is a wide variety of educational opportunities at this south Florida institution.
Because of its excellent location in between Fort Lauderdale and Miami and miles of oceanfront property, the cost of living in Hollywood is higher than the national average. According to city-data.com, the median gross rent in the area during 2009 was $982 per month and the median household income rose significantly between 2000 and 2009, so living in the area affordably should be easy.
One of the best ways to learn about the native people of Florida is to visit the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum and Seminole Indian Village in Hollywood. Located near the Florida Everglades, the museum offers 60 acres of cypress tree-lined hiking trails, exhibits that feature artifacts relating to the proud Seminole culture and a beautiful boardwalk that showcases indigenous Floridian plant species.
Locals also take pride in the city's boardwalk. Named one of Travel & Leisure magazine's 2010 "America's Best Beach Boardwalks," this enchanting brick-paved thoroughfare is popular with sun worshipers, cyclists, joggers and countless cafes and restaurants for residents to enjoy.

All equipment will be provided and people do not need to have a fishing license to participate.
Sessions will run hourly at 10 a.m., 11 a.m., 1 p.m., 2 p.m., and 3 p.m. at in the roped-off area on Meredith Bay near the Meredith Rotary trailer on Lake Winnipesaukee.
Participants will learn about ice-fishing techniques, including using tip-ups, sounding the hole and operating power augers. Then the kids will fish!

"Remember, you don't have to fish to win cash prizes," according to Betsey Donovan, Derby Chairman for 2014. "Everyone who purchases the $30 Derby Ticket has the opportunity to win hundreds of dollars in cash prizes throughout the weekend. Additionally, there are two $5,000 cash drawings during the weekend," according to Donovan.
"This will mark the 35th year of the Ice Fishing Derby," Donovan stated, "and with our new rules and prize structure that includes more than $50,000 in cash prizes, we are expecting a big crowd and a great time to be had by all."

LivingSocial sold out its Biz Markie cooking class. Can novelty save the daily deal?
- Bill Flook
- Staff Reporter- Washington Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
LivingSocial Inc. sold 88 tickets -- at $79 or $99 a pop -- for a healthy cooking class hosted by Biz Markie.
Even assuming low overhead, that's not that much money. Still, the "Just a Friend" rapper successfully put butts in seats, or in this case, spatulas in hands. The event sold out and generated more buzz for LivingSocial's 918 F Street experiment.
Which begs the question: Can novelty save the daily deal?
Three years since LivingSocial began offering its core deal-a-day product, the sheen has come off. Discounts at restaurants, salons and gun ranges are just no longer interesting in and of themselves.
A hidden advantage of a deal like this is it isn't a deal at all. Because a cooking class with Biz Markie has no real precedent, there is no means to value it, except for what LivingSocial says it's worth. There is no presumption of a discount, and that means the vendor (Biz Markie, in this case, I guess?) doesn't need to take a big hit to his bottom line. That's one way to do it.
People will pay to do something new. I predict LivingSocial is about to get weird.

Braided-shield cables provide a flexible method of electrically
shielding a cable. The braid also adds strength to the cable. Because
of this, braided-shield cables are the best choice for cables used in
mobile, remote or live applications. The drawback to using a braided
shield, however, is the time and effort needed to prepare the cable for
attaching a connector.
The standard approach is to completely unbraid the shield to free the
conductors inside, and then twist the shield conductors together. The
photos below detail this method. While there is nothing wrong with this
method, it is tedious to unbraid the shield. Pulling and twisting the
individual wires of the braid also subjects them to a great deal of
stress, which often weakens the wires, breaking some of them in the
process. In addition, the reformed shield conductor tends to shed wires
causing potential electrical problems later on.
An alternate method provides a cleaner way to prepare the shield
without subjecting the wires to stress, and it results in a cleaner,
more manageable shield conductor.
The Traditional Method
Strip the jacket. With a pointed tool, carefully separate the
braided shield.
Continue unbraiding the shield until it is completely fanned.
Remove any paper or plastic material between the braid and the
Twist the fanned shield into a single conductor.
The unbraided shield will have a natural twist to it. Try to follow
this tendency.
Be careful not to break off the individual shield strands.
A Better Way
Strip the cable's jacket.
Push the braided shield away from the end of the wire to loosen the
With a pointed tool, carefully push the strands to the side to make an
opening in the braid.
Detail of the above instruction. Work slowly and the strands will move
The size of the opening will depend on the flexibility of the inner
conductors and your own skill.
Loop the tool around the conductors pull them through the opening in
the braid. If there is a paper or plastic wrapper, you may be able to
remove this before you create the opening in the braid.
Detail of the instruction above.
Continue pulling the conductors and filler through the opening.
The braided shield is now empty.

AG Says Massachusetts Towns Can Not Ban Marijuana Centers
By Paul Tuthill
The Massachusetts Attorney General says towns can not impose a total ban on marijuana treatment centers.
The attorney general's office said an outright ban conflicts with the medical marijuana law approved by Massachusetts voters last year. Communities can adopt zoning-by-laws to regulate the location of the dispensaries, and temporary moratoriums are ok to allow for time to put the zoning in place. Michael Cutler is an attorney in Northampton, who represents several clients looking to open marijuana treatment centers.
The first medical marijuana dispensaries are expected to open in Massachusetts later this year.

Lit up: The industry will benefit from favorable regulation and changing consumer preferences
IBISWorld's Medical Marijuana Stores market research report can be used to help you: understand market size and growth potential; major companies; draft business plans and pitch books; and conduct benchmarking and SWOT analysis. Our industry analysis highlights macro industry trends in the overall sector and micro trends faced by companies that do business in the industry. The industry report also provides key industry statistics and 5-year forecasts to anticipate future industry prospects so you can decide with confidence.
The Medical Marijuana Stores industry has experienced exponential growth over the past five years, thanks to favorable state legislation legalizing the use and sale of cannabis products, coupled with an increasing acceptance and legitimacy toward applying these products for medical use. Nevertheless, the industry has also been hampered by the federal classification of marijuana as an illegal substance and the subsequent regulations that apply to such substances. Over the next five years, industry revenue will continue to increase; however, the industry will remain at risk until the federal government definitively alters its position on the legality of medical marijuana.... purchase to read more

DATE & TIME: Saturday, November 30, 6 p.m. (ET)
FACTS & STATS: Site: Sullivan Arena (8,700) -- Anchorage, Alaska. Television: None. Home Record: Indiana State 2-0, Pepperdine 2-1. Away Record: Indiana State 1-1, Pepperdine 2-0. Neutral Record: Indiana State 1-1, Pepperdine 1-1. Conference Record: Indiana State 0-0, Pepperdine 0-0. Series Record: First-ever meeting.
GAME NOTES: In the fifth-place game of the Great Alaska Shootout, the Indiana State Sycamores square off with the Pepperdine Waves.
Indiana State got itself mixed up in a shootout during Friday's action. The Sycamores came out on top as they outlasted host Alaska-Anchorage, 97-87, to push forward in the tournament. The win was the fourth in six tries this season for Indiana State.
Pepperdine bounced back from a 97-89 loss to Green Bay to kick off the tournament, with a 68-56 win over Denver on Friday. The victory was the fifth of the campaign for the Waves, who own a 5-2 mark overall on the young season. Pepperdine has not won five games in the month of November since the 1998-99 season.
This will be the first time these two teams have ever met on the hardwood.
All five starters scored in double figures for Indiana State on Friday. The wealth of scoring was helped by the team's efficient shooting, as the Sycamores netted 35 field goals on 55.6 percent efficiency from the floor. The performance included an 8-of-22 showing from beyond the arc.
Despite scoring 83.2 points per game and shooting 51.1 percent from the floor this season, the Sycamores still haven't posted many blowout victories. Indiana State is giving up 76.3 points per game and allowing teams to put in 47.8 percent of their attempts from the floor. Indiana State didn't just have five double-figure scorers against Alaska-Anchorage, but has had five on the roster do so all season. Jake Odum (13.2 ppg) and Justin Gant (13.2 ppg) are the two top options. Dawon Cummings (11.8 ppg) and Manny Arop (12.0 ppg) are the club's 3-point marksmen.
Pepperdine ran over Denver in the first half and then coasted over the final 20 minutes on Friday. The Waves hit a blistering 71.4 percent of their total shots and held the Pioneers to only six field goals in the first half. The Waves connected on better than 70 percent of their shots from the field in the second half as well.
There is no doubt that Stacy Davis (18.1 ppg, 5.4 rpg) is the leader of this Pepperdine squad, as he paces the team in scoring as one of only two players averaging double figures for the season. Davis was in fine form on Friday, as he led the Waves to victory by scoring 22 points while connecting on all but one of his nine shots from the floor. Brendan Lane (15.6 ppg, 10.0 rpg) is the second member of the unit averaging double digits while also anchoring the team in the frontcourt. Lane isn't just an offensive force up front, as he has blocked 23 shots on defense. The rest of the team has 20 blocks combined.
The Sycamores benefited from some inferior competition for its win against Alaska-Anchorage. They won't have such an easy time against the Waves.

Pets can get a little adventurous. Dog try to catch squirrels or chase cars down the street, but an Albuquerque cat makes those situations look like amateur work.
"Lucky Dog" might just be the name of the company trying to sell this house but if a dog moves in consider him lucky, because for right now, he's got one less cat as a next door neighbor.
You see, Toby Kitterman's cat Mister Darcy is a long way from his Albuquerque home.
"Our neighbor was in the process of moving," said Mister Darcy's owner, Toby. "I went to work, and when I came home that evening I had noticed Darcy's food had not been eaten." That's because the little guy was on an 11 hour one way trip to California.
The movers had actually heard him meowing in the truck. When they opened it up Mr. Darcy was sitting in there," he said. But Toby and his daughter, Autumn, wouldn't call Mister Darcy's trip a vacation.
"I'm pretty sure he did not have a pleasant ride," Autumn said.
And they, along with Mister Darcy's brother, midnight haven't had a pleasant time without him.
"It kind of feels a little empty not hearing, not just seeing him right there coming up to you," she said.
Now comes the hard part, getting him back home. So the adventure of Mister Darcy and a potential lucky dog's dream living situation comes to an end.
The moving company is taking care of Mister Darcy right now. Toby is trying to get his cat on a plane or a bus to come home, but he's willing to make the drive to California if necessary.

Forlenza Assistant Examiner-Jerald M. Forsberg Attorney, Agent, or FirmPastoriza & Kelly [5 7] ABSTRACT A wheelchair carrier has a generally U-shaped frame work constituted by a pair of upright struts whose upper ends are coupled to a relatively low-slung cross brace. Projecting rearwardly is a swing arm pivotally coupled to one side of the frame work and a holding arm fixed to the other side of the frame work.
With the swing arm rotated out of the way to a retracted position, a wheelchair may be assembled onto the carrier by first looping or placing a front corner section of the wheelchair over the holding arm and using it as a pivot to swing the wheelchair upwardly with a lifting action. Once the wheelchair is urged to the desired position, then the swing arm is rotated back to underlie and support the wheelchair handle grips or back rest section. The swing arm may be set in place by a detent and locking knob arrangement.
9 Claims, 6 Drawing Figures WHEELCHAIR CARRIER ATTACHABLE TO VEHICLE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention generally relates to article carrying devices and more specifically to carriers for wheelchairs or the like capable of being removably installed on vehicle bumpers.
A number of stationary and collapsable bike carriers exist that can be demountably installed on the rear bumpers of automobiles. Their outwardly projecting arms or hangers are ordinarily spaced apart and structured so that the bike can be supported between its front upper portions and middle upper portions. These conventional bike carriers are not equipped or configured to accommodate wheelchairs or similar articles of bulky and unusual shape.
In order to transport a wheelchair by way of a family automobile, it must ordinarily be loaded into the back seat area of the vehicle which is tedious, awkward, time-consuming and very annoying. The wheelchair then consumes considerable space that could otherwise be used by additional occupants and may necessitate using two family automobiles.
Moreover, there is considerable risk that seat covers and upholstery will become ripped, gradually worn, smudged, etc.
.The invalid, paraplegic, geriatric or other person using the wheelchair can certainly not accomplish the loading and unloading effort himself and therefore assistance from others is unavoidable.
A primary purpose of this invention is to permit many people to assemble their Wheelchairs on a special article carrier attached to a vehicle bumper without assistance from others and in minimal time.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Briefly stated, this invention comprehends a relatively inexpensive, simple and durable article carrier capable of being removably installed on vehicle bumpers, the carrier being structured so that a collapsed wheelchair can be easily manipulated onto and withdrawn from the carrier by a single person.
In its broader aspects, the article carrier has a generally U-shaped frame work with a pair of laterally spaced struts and a cross brace coupled to the upper end of the struts. A pair of clamping assemblies are secured to corresponding'struts for removably securing the U-shaped frame work to the bumper of a vehicle. Extending from and coupled to one side of the U- shaped frame work is a pivot element that rotatably couples a swing arm. The swing arm is thereby able to move within an arcuate path within a verticle plane that is preferably generally parallel to the plane of the U- shaped frame work. A holding arm extends rearwardly from and is coupled to the other side of the U-shaped frame work. An article such as a wheelchair may be disposed between and supported by the swing arm and holding arm.
A detent interconnects the swing arm and pivot element and is structured to allow the swing arm to be locked at selected positions within its path of movement. The detent includes a first serrated disk secured to the pivot element and a second serrated disk secured to the swing arm. The disks are arranged next to each other in releasable interlocking engagement.
Preferably a knob is provided that is coupled to the pivot element and arranged in releasable engagement with the swing arm so that it may be selectively loosened in order to relax locking pressure on the detent and tightened in order to exert locking pressure on the detent.
The swing arm outer or distal end-is formed with a rearwardly extending hanger. The swing arm has a straight shank portion and an open triangular portion. Pliable, scratch resistant material covers the hanger and open triangular portion.
The holding arm is fixed to the U-shaped frame work and likewise is formed with a hanger covered in part by pliable, scratch-resistant material.
The article to be supported by the carrier may be a collapsed wheelchair supported at a back rest section by the swing arm and supported at a forward section by the holding arm.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The numerous benefits and unique aspects of the present invention will be fully understood when the fol lowing detailed description is studied in conjunction with the drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an article carrier constructed in accordance with this invention supporting a collapsed wheelchair;
FIG. 2 is an elevational schematic view showing a wheelchair being assembled to the carrier with the swing arm moved to a retracted position;
FIG. 3 is also an. elevational schematic view showing the collapsed wheelchair fully assembled with the swing arm rotated back to its supporting position;
FIG. 4 is a detailed, perspective, enlarged view of the article carrier;
FIG. 5 is a perspective fragmentary view showing the swing arm rotated to a substantially horizontal position; and,
FIG. 6 is a sectional fragmentary view taken along line 6-6 of FIG. 5.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Referring now primarily to FIG. I, an article carrier I 10 is shown having a pair of spaced and generally upright struts l 1 and 12 and a cross brace 13 spanning between and connected to the top ends of the struts 11 and 12.
Extending rearwardly from the corner or juncture defined by the intersection of strut 11 and cross brace 13 is an elongated swing arm 14 having a hanger 15 formed by its outermost or distal end. The swing arm 14 is rotatably coupled to a pivot element 18 for arcuate movement generally within a verticle plane. Extending rearwardly from the corner or juncture defined by the intersection of strut 12 and cross brace 13 is a holding arm 16 whose outer portion is formed with a hanger 17 similar in construction to hanger 15. Swing arm 14 is movable over a broad angular displacement and holding arm 16 is generally stationary, although it may rotate about its own axis if desired.
Secured to strut 11 is a clamping assembly constituted by a lower bumper clamp 20 and an upper bumper clamp 21. Similarly, secured to the other strut 12 is an identical clamping assembly constituted by a lower bumper clamp 22 and an upper bumper clamp 23.
The U-shaped frame work 24 constituted by the struts l1 and 12 and cross brace 13 is demountably attached to the rear bumper 26 of an automobile 25. The lower bumper clamps 20 and 22 are secured to the lower bumper edge 27 and the upper bumper clamps 21 and 23 are secured to the upper bumper edge 28.
An article characterized by a wheelchair 30 is shown assembled between and supported by swing arm 14 and holding arm 16 of the carrier 10. The wheelchair 30 is of conventional construction and its symmetrical sides are shown collapsed inwardly towards the longitudinal center line where a number of split section panels, etc., are folded and generally flattened against one another so that the overall collapsed wheelchair 30 is compressed within a relatively narrow space. The wheelchair 30 has collapsed back rest portion 33, push bars or handle bars 34, and corners or junctions 35 defined generally by the back rest portion 33 and handle bars 34. For simplicity, this area or section will be referred to as the back rest portion. The wheelchair 30 is shown with inwardly folded leg rest sections 36, foot rest pads 37 and front section support legs 38. Corners or junctions 40 are defined by the intersection of leg rest sections 36 and legs 38 or by bends in the leg rest sections 36. For the sake of simplicity, this area or section will be referred to as the forward section 40. The wheelchair also has relatively small front wheels 41 and relatively large rear wheels 42.
Referringnow to FIG. 2, the wheelchair 30 is shown collapsed and ready for installation on to carrier 10. The person who uses the wheelchair 30 or another person initially loops or places the wheel chair forward section 40 over the holding arm 16 after rotating swing arm 14 downwardly and out of the way to a retracted position. Thereafter, holding arm 16 can be used as a lever to derive a mechanical lifting advantage.
Referring to FIG. 3, the person continues installing wheelchair 30 onto carrier by swinging it upwardly about the axis of holding arm 16 until the back rest portion 33 is substantially erect or otherwise in the desired position. At that point in time the person may grasp swing arm 14 and crank it upwardly again to a substantially erect position where the hanger will underlie and support the wheelchair back rest portion 33.
Referring now essentially to FIG. 4, the swing arm 14 has a barrel-shaped connector 48 swivelly connected to the pivot element 18 which essentially is a bolt having threaded and smooth segments as shall be more fully explained. Adjacent the barrel-shaped connector 48 is a straight shank portion 49 that merges with an open triangular portion 50 constituted by bars 51, 52 and 53. The outermost tip of hanger l5 terminates in a hook 54 which is arranged to project upwardly when swing arm 14 is in its operational position as illustrated in FIGS. 1, 3 and 4. To protect the wheelchair or other article of unusual geometry assembled on carrier 10, the hanger l5 and at least a part of triangular portion 50 are covered with pliable, scratch-resistant material 55. Secured to the rearward end of the pivot element is a manual knob 56 that can be selectively manipulated to exert pressure on barrel-shaped connector 48 through one or more spring washers 57 or the like. i
The holding arm 16 is essentially a threaded bolt 60 held tightly to the juncture of strut l2 and cross brace 13 by a plurality of nut fasteners 61 and 62. The pivot element 18 and threaded bolt 60 hold the U-shaped frame work 24 together as a rigid unit. The outermost tip of hanger l7 terminates in an upwardly projecting hook 63. A coating of pliable, scratch-resistant material 64 is likewise applied to holding arm 16.
A series of height adjustment retaining holes 66 and 67 are formed through the channel-shaped bars constituting struts 11 and 12 respectively. The bumper clamps 20, 21, 22 and 23 can be selectively positioned in the retaining holes in order to accommodate varying sizes and curvatures of different vehicle bumpers. Stabilizing bolts 68 and 69 are inserted between their associated upper and lower bumper clamps. The bumperengaging forward ends 70 and 71 of the stabilizing bolts 68 and 69 respectively are covered with pliable, scratch-resistant material in order to guard against gouging or scratching the vehicle bumper 26. The sets of upper and lower bumper clamps and stabilizing bolts constitute a pair of three-point contacts with the bumper to assure tight and dependable attachment.
FIG. 5 shows the swing arm 14 rotated counterclockwise and downwardly from its erect position to a horizontal and partially retracted position. With the swing arm 14 swung to this position it will be out of the way so that a person will have adequate elbow room and unobstructed access to the carrier 10 for the purpose of effecting the first phase of the installation procedure. A detent 74 is interposed between the swing arm 14 and pivot element 18 in order to assist in allowing the swing arm 14 to be locked at selected positions within its path of movement. The detent 74 may be any conventional interlock, positive lock catch or related mechanism.
Referring to FIG. 6, the pivot element 18 is an elongated bolt having a forwarded threaded segment 76 extending through strut 11 and cross brace 13, an intermediate smooth segment 77 that passes through and retains barrel-shaped connector 48 of swing arm 14, and, a rearward threaded segment 78 that holds the one or more spring washers 57 and threadably receives the knob 56. i
The detent 74 in this embodiment is characterized by a serrated locking disk 80 fixed to a nut 81 which is in turn tightly secured to threaded segment 76 of the pivot element 18. A mating'serrated locking disk 82 is fixed to an end of the barrel-shaped connector 48. When the swing arm 14 is set in place, the adjacent and abutting disks 80 and 82 will be held together in releasable interlocking engagement. When the knob 56 is loosened then the locking pressure between disks 80 and 82 will be relaxed so that the swing arm 14 may be rotated to a different angular position.
The swing arm 14 is preferably constructed from chrome-plated tubular or rod steel. The arm 14 may incorporate a telescopable connection in order to be length adjustable. Preferably the end-to-end length of arm 14 is equal to or greater than the space between the struts 11 and 12. If desired a plurality of hangers I could be formed on the swing arm 14 and holding arm 16 so that a plurality of wheelchairs could be tandemly aligned and held by the single article carrier 10.
While the article carrier 10 has been described in connection with accommodating a collapsed wheelchair 30, it is constructed to accommodate other articles such as collapsible furniture, large toys, etc.
While it is preferable that the swing arm 14 be erect for optimum support purposes, this is not essential and the arm 14 could be locked in place at numerous inclined positions dictated primarily by the shape and special problems presented by the article to be assembled.
OPERATION Keeping the above construction in mind, it can be understood how the previously described disadvantages pertaining to the transportation of wheelchairs and the like are overcome or substantially eliminated by this invention.
With the article carrier suitably secured to automobile bumper 26 a collapsed wheelchair 30 may be assembled with relative ease by practically any person, including many people who must use wheelchairs. The wheelchair 30 is tilted backwardly on rear wheels 42 until the wheelchair forward section 40 is raised to a level where it may be pushed forwardly to rest upon holding arm 16 as shown in FIG. 2. During this maneuver, the rear wheels 42 have remained on the ground so there has been no need to lift the entire weight of wheelchair 30.
With the swing arm 14 rotated downwardly to one side and generally out of the way, the person may then use the holding arm 16 as a lever and derive a mechanical lifting advantage from it. The handles 34 or the like are grasped and raised until the back rest portion 33 is substantially verticle. Holding the wheelchair in that desired position, the person may then grasp the swing arm 14 and rotate it upwardly to a position where the hanger underlies and supports the back rest portion 33. Then the knob 56 is tightened, causing the detent 18 to become positively locked in order to fix the swing arm 14 in the desired position. Straps may then be tightened to further secure the stability of the wheelchair 30 and carrier 10 prior to travelling.
From the foregoing, it will be evident that the present invention has provided an article carrier for a wheelchair in which all of the various advantages are fully realized.
