Abstract:
A portable door guard used to secure the door at the hinge, particularly the wings of the hinge. The portable door guard comprises a retractable, non-permanently fixed device that can be secured around the hinge of the door from the inside to prohibit the door to open more than a gap. The portable door guard includes a center area designed to grip the hinge to limit the swinging movement of the hinge and adjusting means to configure the size of the gap.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes: a wire having a proximal end and a distal end; and a body being fixedly coupled to the proximal of the wire and having at least two apertures, each aperture for receiving and locking the distal end of the wire at different times such that when the wire is locked in one of the apertures it cannot be removed without destroying the apparatus, wherein the distal end of the wire is operable to pass through one or more apertures of an object and lock in each of the apertures at different times such that the body retains the wire in engagement with the one or more apertures of the object and maintains the apparatus locked to the object.
Abstract:
A portable door guard for sliding over a hinge of a door, the portable door guard comprising a body comprising a hollow cylindrical section including an opening gap along the length of the hollow cylindrical section on a stationary section of a back face of the body, the hollow cylindrical section comprising a “C” shaped profile capable of fitting over a hinge, wherein the hinge comprises a barrel, a first wing, and a second wing, the first wing being mounted on a door frame, and the second wing being mounted onto the door, and the barrel holding the first wing and the second wing together while acting as a pivot. The portable door guard further comprising a body section configured to impede the door from opening more than a given amount, the body section capable of being extended and shortened.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes: a base having at least one surface lying substantially in a base plane; a first member extending substantially perpendicularly from the surface of the base and defining an aperture therein; and a second member having a proximal end coupled to the surface of the base and a distal end, the second member defining a second plane extending transversely from the base plane of the base at least toward the aperture, wherein the orientation of the second member biases the second member toward the first member such that an article may be gripped therebetween.

Abstract:
An apparatus includes: a head; a metal wire having a first end coupled to the head and a second end coupled to a stop member; and a body having a cavity for receiving and locking the head such that when the head is locked in the cavity it cannot be removed without destroying the apparatus, wherein the head and the metal wire are operable to pass through one or more apertures of an object and the head is operable to lock in the cavity such that the body and the stop member retain the wire in engagement with the aperture and maintain the apparatus locked to the object.
