The invention relates to a method for transplanting ancient ginkgoes and belongs to the technical field of plant transplanting technologies. The method for transplanting ancient ginkgoes includes the steps of firstly, preparing before transplanting; secondly, performing balance snagging to branches of ancient ginkgoes; thirdly, performing root pruning and ball shrinking; fourthly, packing and transporting root balls; and fifthly, maintaining and managing after transplanting. Root pruning and ball shrinking are performed in the method, so that growth of new mass absorbing roots is promoted. Emergence of new mass branches and leaves is promoted by balance snagging. By soil ball bundling, lifting by cranes, transporting by plate trailers, unloading and transplanting, no cracking of tree trunks occurs, and the soil balls are firm without looseness. By late maintenance and management, the transplanted ancient ginkgoes grow well in leafy profusion and have green leaves in growth seasons, and survival and healthy thriving are achieved.

Disclosed is an improved fishing rod adapted to increase the durability of the fishing rod and fishing line and to improve casting distance and accuracy. The fishing rod comprises an elongated cylindrical rod blank having a working end and a terminal end, wherein the working end is attached to a handle. The rod blank further comprises a plurality of fishing line guides disposed in a gradual spiral configuration along the length of the rod blank. The fishing line guides are adapted to receive a fishing line therethrough. The guides are also low profile so as to minimize snagging. When in use, the fishing line wraps around the rod blank, thereby evenly distributing the weight of the fishing line around the rod. In this way, the present invention eliminates line memory and increases the tensile strength of the rod blank and the fishing line.

A compact, smooth surfaced, flexible and formable, elongate apparatus that has a hair-clog snagging end portion for insertion into drains for snagging and removing the common hair clogs that exist in the upper portion of drains typically around the drain pop-up mechanism and drain trap. The elongate shaft (10) may be bent along it's complete length into any shape and remain fixed in that shape to accommodate compact storage as well as forming a grasping and twisting handle for the shaft while it is in the drain or bending the hair-snagging end of the shaft for easier insertion and navigation within the drain. The hair-clog snagging portion, which is at the distal end of the shaft, is in the form of a pad (12), which maximizes the surface area of hair hooking members (38). The hair-snagging pad consists of the hook portion of hook and loop fasteners and contains a multitude of miniature, hook formed, polymeric elements which aggressively entangle hair-clogs for quick retrieval from the drain without dismantling the drain and without using dangerous chemicals in the drain.

A staple remover (10) for removing a staple (100) from a document (102) and simultaneously capturing the thus-removed staple. The staple remover includes a wedge (18) for prying the staple free from a document without the staple snagging to the wedge, a bin (20) into which the freed staple will fall and, when in the form of a handheld device, an enclosed clearance (26) around the wedge's top or bearing surface that lifts the staple and that is in communication with the bin such that when the remover is immediately tilted front end upwardly as the staple is freed, the staple falls through the clearance and into the bin. The surfaces of the wedge that engage or could possibly engage the staple's leg portions, are adapted to prevent snagging of the staple when freed from the document. The bin could include an opening (24) covered by a cap (22) that is removable to permit emptying.

A removable joint sleeve. The sleeve comprises a sleeve for joints. The sleeve comprises an inner layer, outer layer, upper hem, lower hem, internal flap, zipper and zipper tab, zipper trim, and zipper guard. The sleeve uses a zipper primarily due to the ease with which it can be opened and closed. Preferably, the zipper guard is a hook and loop connection like Velcro® or other similar materials. The zipper guard is preferably rounded so as to prevent fraying and prevents the zipper from unzipping during adjustments or extreme movements. The zipper guard shape also prevents the zipper guard from rolling up or folding. The internal flap sits between the zipper and user's skin to prevent any snagging of hair or skin. The zipper trim creates a zipper valley as well as a pleasing aesthetic and prevents fraying or unraveling. Preferably, the sleeve is made of neoprene or a similar material so as to stretch around the user's appendage and compress around it, providing therapeutic pressure.

A wall-mounted tether anchor is provided having an arcuate hook member surrounded by a perimeter ring, whereby the hook member supports the closed loop handle of a tether while the perimeter ring maintains the tether connection therewith by preventing lifting of the loop handle away from the hook. A threaded member extends from the base of the hook and provides a means to anchor the device into a wall surface. The threaded member comprises either a mechanical screw fastener or a threaded bolt member that can be placed through an open aperture and secured by way of a threaded nut. In an embodiment of the anchor device, the distal end of the hook does not extend far above the upper portion of the perimeter hook, whereby the otherwise exposed hook is bounded by the ring to reduce snagging or puncturing of articles pressing downward thereon.

A device comprising a shaft and a fastener. The device requires substantially no tools to apply while generally maintaining the basic shape of a common clevis pin and the robustness of a common cotter pin. The fastener passes through a bore hole in the shaft. A cap positions onto a shaft head, and includes a ridge that engages a slot in the shaft head. The cap and head have low profiles and are non-protuberant, so as to minimize snagging, inadvertent release, and/or damage to contacting objects. A plunger positions inside the shaft, passing through a plunger spring. The plunger spring provides a compressive force that presses against the fastener to hold it in place. Removing the cap reduces the compressive force. The shaft cannot be released by external pressure on the shaft head. A compressive element helps secure the fastener in a shaft cross bore.
