Abstract: The invention relates to an assembly (150) for anchoring a vessel (100) to a reference surface (102). The assembly (150) comprises a sealing element holder (106) for coupling to a vessel (100) and a sealing element (104) coupled to the sealing element holder (106), wherein a portion of the sealing element (104) is moveable relative to the sealing element holder (106). A base member (108) is located proximate to the sealing element holder (106) in use and a diaphragm element (112) is coupled to the base member (108) for engagement with a reference surface (102). The base member (108) comprises upper (142) and lower surfaces (144), including a sealing surface (110) on the upper surface (144) and a channel (140) extending from the upper surface (144) to the lower surface (142).

Abstract: A tablet dispenser comprises an upwardly-open body portion (2), a plurality of flexible, circumferentially spaced tabs (4) around the upper end thereof to extend upwardly therefrom whereby gaps (6) are defined between adjacent tabs (4), an apertured lid portion (16) encasing the tabs (4) whereby the tabs (4) underlie the inner surface of the lid portion (16), cooperating locations means (10, 28) on the body portion (2) and the lid portion (16) so positioned that, on initial assembly of the dispenser, the lid portion (16) is located on the body portion (2) with the aperture (34) overlying a tab (4) to define a closed position of the dispenser, the lid portion (16) being rotatable relative to the body portion (2) to an open position in which the aperture (34) is aligned with a gap (6) between two adjacent tabs (4), and resilient means (14) reacting between the body portion (2) and the lid portion (16) such that it is first of all necessary to depress the lid portion (16) against the bias of the resilient means
