Abstract: A coupler for interconnecting in fluid communication a pair of axially aligned flexible pipe ends, employs a tubular member for insertion between two sections of drainpipe to be coupled. A first thread is included on a first end portion of the tubular member for threaded engagement of a first one of the two sections of drainpipe, along with a second thread on a second end portion for threaded engagement of the second section. An integrally formed annular flanges in one form of the invention serves as a grip with which to manually screw the tubular member onto the drainpipe, while a cutback portion on the flange prevents misalignment of the coupled sections at the coupling when placed upon the ground. Tapered end pieces that screw onto each end to accommodate smaller drainpipe are provided in another form, with the threads of the tubular member matching the helically-corrugated plastic casing surface of conventional RV drainpipe.

Abstract: A fishing assembly adapted to prevent an ice hole from freezing over. The fishing assembly includes a plastic tubular hollow elongated sleeve for fitting inside the ice hole and a flat annular flange which extends integrally radially outwardly from the sleeve, for retaining the fishing assembly in position inside the ice hole. A plastic cover is secured removably to the upper end of the sleeve for sealing it. The cover includes a slit-like slot for defining an entranceway for the fishing line to extend therethrough into the ice hole. A flag assembly is secured moveably to the cover, for providing a visual indication to the user that a fish has struck the bait. An internal ridge supports the cover entirely within the hollow interior of the sleeve at a substantial distance from the upper edge thereof, thereby to prevent inadvertent dislodgment thereof. The cover is therefor disposed closer to the water surface for providing a better insulation thereto.

Abstract: An adapter for coupling a corrugated drainpipe to a sewage disposal site employs a tubular member which is hollow throughout its length for connecting the drainpipe in fluid communication with a sewage disposal site. The tubular member has a drainpipe end portion having a complementary shape and size adapted to engage threadably an end of a corrugated drainpipe, and a sewer inlet end portion adapted to be inserted through an inlet opening of a sewage disposal site. A helically-shaped thread extending axially along the drainpipe end portion is complementary sized and shaped relative to the corrugations of the corrugated drainpipe to enable threaded engagement of the corrugated drainpipe, while a nozzle section of the sewer inlet end portion has an outside diameter progressively decreasing toward a distal end of the sewer inlet end portion, both for enabling the sewer inlet end portion to generally mate with an inlet opening into which the sewer inlet end portion is inserted and for engaging the disposal site structure defining the inlet opening to thereby cover over the inlet opening.

Abstract: A device is disclosed for coupling a drainpipe to a recreational vehicle discharge pipe fitting of the type having a terminal end portion with circular periphery and a plurality of locking pins extending outward radially from the periphery. The device employs a tubular member having a proximal end and a distal end. A drainpipe end portion of the tubular member terminating at the distal end has a complementary shape and size adapted to engage threadably an end of a corrugated drainpipe, while a fitting end portion of the tubular member terminating at the proximal end has a complementary shape and size adapted to engage telescopically a terminal end portion of the discharge pipe fitting. Open elongated slots in the fitting end portion receive the locking pins as the fitting end portion is placed over the terminal end portion of the discharge pipe fitting and rotated about its axis, each slot extending circumferentially toward the distal end of the tubular member from an open end portion of the slot at the proximal end to a closed end portion of the slot set back from the proximal end. Elongated portions of the fitting end portion disposed between the proximal end and respective ones of the slots engage respective ones of the locking pins, and a detent in each elongated portion receives the locking pin in locking engagement.
