    摘要: An apparatus for producing and viewing rainbows comprising a base portion, a body portion wherein the body portion is attached to the base, has a front side, a rear side and is generally vertically oriented with respect to the base portion. The apparatus further includes a fluid channel supported by the body portion. The fluid channel has a fluid inlet fluidly connected to a fluid source and a fluid outlet for producing a spray mist above the apparatus. The apparatus further comprises an element for optimally aligning the apparatus relative to the sun. The apparatus is optimally aligned when the front side of the body portion is substantially directly facing the sun. The user of the apparatus is able to view a rainbow created as a result of the sunlight being refracted by the spray mist emanating from the fluid outlet when the user is facing the front side of the body portion and the sun is at the user's back.

    摘要: A main tube having an actuator rod reciprocating therein having a handle portion on one end and a ball and tee holding portion on the other. The ball and tee holding portion has a ball holder or a guide attached to the actuator rod and arms holding the golf tee in position and held by spring clip or leaf springs and magnets. Upon activating the handle portion, the movement of the ball holder and guide causes the release of the pivoted arms after placement of the golf tee in the ground. The ball holder or guide is biased upward by a spring without retracting the arms, thereby permitting the golf tee and ball placement device to be removed from the teed up golf ball. Accurate and repeatable placement of a golf ball at a predetermined height on a tee is achieved with a reduced possibility that the golf ball falls off the tee upon removal of the golf tee and ball placement device.
