Abstract: Described are attachment devices coupleable to an animal crate having at least a portion of at least one wall formed from a mesh network having a plurality of openings. The attachment device comprising includes a base member and a spring-loaded crate attachment member coupled to the base member. The spring-loaded crate attachment member includes a first slider piece and a second slider piece. A first force is applicable to at least one of the first slider piece or the second slider piece to move the at least one of the first slider piece or the second slider piece to an insertion state. A spring force biases the at least one of the first slider piece or the second slider piece from the insertion state to an expanded state.

Abstract: A paper towel dispenser includes two static positions, an “up” position and a “down” position. One embodiment includes an actuator lock component for engaging and displacing sliders. An actuator unlock component is positioned over the actuator lock component. The legs or extensions of the actuator unlock component extend in a downward direction. The body of the actuator is thus positioned above the sliders. The other embodiment includes spring leafs for engaging and displacing the sliders. The actuator is positioned under the spring leafs. The legs or extensions of the actuator extend in an upward direction. The body of the actuator is thus positioned below the sliders. In one embodiment, in the “up” position, the sliders extend outwardly and in the “down” position, the sliders extend inwardly, whereas, in the other embodiment, in the “up” position, the sliders extend inwardly and in the “down” position, the sliders extend outwardly.
