Abstract

Reconfigurable assemblies include, for example, a housing assembly, a heater assembly, and an umbrella assembly. The housing assembly includes a cavity for receiving a tank. The heater assembly includes a heater, a post having a lower portion and an upper portion, and the heater attached to the upper end of the post. The umbrella assembly includes a canopy and a pole. In a first configuration the lower portion of the post of the heater assembly is operably attached to the housing assembly to define a patio heater assembly. In a second configuration the lower portion of the pole of the umbrella assembly is operably attached to the housing assembly to define a patio umbrella assembly. The heater assembly and umbrella assembly may be usable with and positioned in the center of conventional tables.

Abstract

Structures for use in forming products having a wood grain appearance include, for example, a plurality of extruded layers having different colors/shades spirally wound about a longitudinal axis to an outer surface to define the structure. The plurality of extruded layers include varying thicknesses along a spiral length of the plurality of layers and/or portions of the plurality of extruded layers encircling the longitudinal axis include portions disposed at different distances from the longitudinal axis. In some embodiments, the spirally winding includes forming a cylindrical structure, and pressing the cylindrical structure into a cuboid structure having a square or rectangular cross-section across the longitudinal axis and at least a portion of the plurality of extruded layers defining a square or rectangle pattern across the longitudinal axis. Longitudinal portions may be cut from the structures to form the products having a wood grain appearance.
