Abstract: A lantern assembly (10) is provided having a handle supporting beam. The handle (18) is attached to a low profile base (16) containing a channel (80) defined about its circumference configured to receive and stow a length of electric cord (82) therein. The electric cord (82) is connected at one end to a pair of terminals (84) extending from the top of the base (16), which also serves to attach the handle (18) to the base (16). The opposite end of the electric cord (82) is attached to a connector (90) for coupling the lamp to the vehicle power supply. The lamp configuration is specially configured and adapted to easily convert a battery-powered lantern to one for use with a vehicle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a housing which receives dry cells in an in-line or end to end orientation. The invention includes features which prevent the incorrect orientation by preventing dry cell terminals making contact with the necessary components. In this way it prevents premature dissipation of dry cells or their impairment. The mechanism by which these features do this is to recess one terminal namely that terminal which would be contacted by the positive terminal of a dry cell. In this way the negative terminal of a dry cell can never make electrical connection. Another feature of the invention is the provision of an aperture having a profile of a silhouette of a dry cell, which has advantages in low light situations, saves material, and allows for relatively easy extraction of dry cells from the cartridge.

Abstract: A label that can be applied to an arcuate surface of an article such as to the exterior surface of a cylindrical dry cell battery which includes a bottom layer and an outer layer. The bottom layer (3) can be positioned adjacent to the arcuate surface and is adherable thereto. The bottom layer includes at least one opening (4). The opening is bounded by a first edge (12), and a second edge (13). The second edge (13) extends generally parallel to the first edge (12). The outer layer (9) is operatively connected to the bottom layer at a first and a second location. The opening is positioned on a portion of the bottom layer between the first and second locations. Whereby the first and second locations are moved into a closer relative position by tension created by the outer layer (9), however the opening prevents buckling of the bottom layer.
