Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 390 words
A combination condom warming and radio apparatus, comprising, a unitary housing, having a rear wall spaced from a front wall, a bottom wall spaced from a top wall, and a first side wall spaced from a second side wall, wherein a clock radio member projects through the front wall, with radio controls directed through the first side wall, and an intermediate wall directed coextensively between the first side wall and the second side wall, and the top wall and the bottom wall defining a first chamber between the intermediate wall and the front wall, with the clock radio member mounted within the first chamber, and a partition wall extending from the intermediate wall to the rear wall, and from the first side wall to the second side wall, with a second chamber oriented between the partition wall and the bottom wall, and a third chamber oriented between the partition wall and the top wall, and dispensing means mounted within the third chamber for dispensing condom package units, and heating means for heating the third chamber, with the heating means mounted within the second chamber, and the dispensing means includes an abutment plate mounted between the second side wall and the first side wall, with an abutment plate spring directed between the abutment plate and the first side wall, with the abutment plate arranged for communication with said condom package units to direct the condom package units against the second side wall within the third chamber, and a top wall slot directed through the top wall in communication with the third chamber, wherein the slot is positioned in adjacency relative to the second side wall, with the top wall slot having a push bar, with the push bar including a push bar handle projecting through the top wall slot extending above the top wall, and at least one spring extending between the push bar and the top wall within the third chamber to bias the push bar in adjacency to the top wall within the third chamber, and a second side wall chute directed through the second side wall extending through the second side wall into communication with the partition wall, with the chute oriented below the top wall slot to receive one of the condom package units when the push bar is directed onto one of said condom package units.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 390 words
A combination condom warming and radio apparatus, comprising, a unitary housing, having a rear wall spaced from a front wall, a bottom wall spaced from a top wall, and a first side wall spaced from a second side wall, wherein a clock radio member projects through the front wall, with radio controls directed through the first side wall, and an intermediate wall directed coextensively between the first side wall and the second side wall, and the top wall and the bottom wall defining a first chamber between the intermediate wall and the front wall, with the clock radio member mounted within the first chamber, and a partition wall extending from the intermediate wall to the rear wall, and from the first side wall to the second side wall, with a second chamber oriented between the partition wall and the bottom wall, and a third chamber oriented between the partition wall and the top wall, and dispensing means mounted within the third chamber for dispensing condom package units, and heating means for heating the third chamber, with the heating means mounted within the second chamber, and the dispensing means includes an abutment plate mounted between the second side wall and the first side wall, with an abutment plate spring directed between the abutment plate and the first side wall, with the abutment plate arranged for communication with said condom package units to direct the condom package units against the second side wall within the third chamber, and a top wall slot directed through the top wall in communication with the third chamber, wherein the slot is positioned in adjacency relative to the second side wall, with the top wall slot having a push bar, with the push bar including a push bar handle projecting through the top wall slot extending above the top wall, and at least one spring extending between the push bar and the top wall within the third chamber to bias the push bar in adjacency to the top wall within the third chamber, and a second side wall chute directed through the second side wall extending through the second side wall into communication with the partition wall, with the chute oriented below the top wall slot to receive one of the condom package units when the push bar is directed onto one of said condom package units.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 92 words
An apparatus as set forth in claim 1 wherein the heating means includes a plurality of radiant heat lamps mounted within the second chamber arranged to receive electrical communication exteriorly of the second chamber to effect heating of the radiant heat lamps, with the partition wall having a plurality of partition wall apertures to receive heat from the second chamber into the third chamber, and a plurality of second side wall openings directed through the second side wall in communication with the second chamber to direct air flow into the second chamber.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 76 words
An apparatus as set forth in claim 2 including a reservoir container mounted into the top wall, said reservoir container having a reservoir chamber formed of a heat transmissive material, and the reservoir container in communication with the third chamber, with the reservoir chamber including an aromatic fluid, with a lid member mounted to the reservoir container, said lid member having apertures therein to direct the aromatic fluid in a vaporized state through the lid member.
