Abstract: A distributor to distribute a treat among toys and food treats to a pet is described. The distributor comprises a base assembly; a carousel pivotably mounted to the base assembly, the carousel comprising partitions defining at least a first compartment; a cap configured to be mounted to the base and to cover the carousel, the cap comprising an opening that, when aligned with the first compartment, provides access to the first compartment; and driving means for driving the carousel to rotate between a first orientation wherein the first compartment is hidden and a second orientation wherein the first compartment is aligned with the opening, wherein a treat located in the compartment becomes accessible to the pet. The distributor may comprise a food dispenser releasably coupled to a feeder motor, and drivable only when the carousel is in a feeding orientation.

Abstract: A flower pot support assembly includes a rectangular panel defining a few windows. The support is engaged and retained into a corresponding panel window via lateral flange grooves. An arcuate seat is made integral to the panel window periphery and abuttingly cooperates with a corresponding flower pot support and associated window edge sloping ramps for flower pot support sliding and tilting engagement within the panel window, all in such a way as to releasably lock the flower pot support in nesting condition inside the panel window with the support member mouth facing upwardly.

Abstract: A vehicle floor mat includes cutting grooves for severing and removing at least one section of a peripheral portion of the mat. The cutting grooves are arranged to define a plurality of distinct outer contours so that the vehicle floor mat is compatible with a plurality of different vehicle models. The vehicle floor mat can further include apertures arranged to receive the anchors of each of the different vehicle models. Each of the different vehicle models can be selected from different models of a particular vehicle manufacturer. The vehicle floor mat can be compatible with at least five different vehicle models.

Abstract: The modular wall structure for underground swimming pools comprises a number of wall panels each comprising an upright portion defining opposite inner and outer sides, opposite first and second edges and opposite top and bottom ends. The wall panel also has a shelf portion generally perpendicular to the upright portion and attached thereto at the top end in cantilevered fashion. The wall panel includes an inclined bracing portion linking the outer side of the upright portion to the shelf portion in an inclined fashion. The wall panel further has complementary attachment members provided on the upright portion first and second edges to allow the wall panel to be edgewisely attached at its first edge to the second edge of an adjacent the wall panel and along its second edge to the first edge of an adjacent the wall panel.

Abstract: A safety lock device for use in releasably locking the head of a butterfly valve. The two part safety lock device comprises first: a cross-sectionally U-shape elongated frame, having an anchoring part at one end and a lateral flange with a number of bores; the anchoring part releasably engages with the valve head for anchoring the U-frame to the valve head; the elongated channel is sized for full engagement by the valve handle; and second: a casing, with an inner passageway, sized for through engagement by the U-frame, and a lateral pocket extension with a number of bores, for engagement by the lateral flange. The casing is characterized by a wedge part, integrally depending therefrom and sized for engagement between the diverging distal end portions of the valve handle and lever. Padlocks releasably interlock the U-frame to the casing by engaging selected pairs of flange bores and pocket bores, thereby concurrently locking the valve lever in its divergent relation to the valve handle.

Abstract: Disclosed is an automobile floor mat having a removable and reversible pan portion that snugly fits inside a central recessed area to collect contaminants. One side of the pan is provided with a plurality of diagonal ridges, the space between the ridges forming grooves to collect liquids. The other side of the pan may be constituted of an abrasive surface of the sand paper type.

Abstract: A safety lock defining one and another, substantially rigid, elongated legs, the one leg defining an outer first leg portion and an inner second leg portion, and the another leg defining an inner third leg portion and an outer fourth leg portion, and an arcuate web integrally joining the second and third leg portions; the web being made from a resilient material whereby the web forms a hinge for relative movement of the one and another legs; the fourth leg portion including a channel, being releasably engaged by the first leg portion whereby the second and third leg portions form with the web a large shackle-like structure for use in locking a utility control box, and ears, for use in receiving the small shackle of at least a few padlocks whereby the first leg portion thereafter becomes locked into the channel; and a notch arrangement, for automatically but releasably retaining a free end tip of the first leg portion against the channel distal end, even when no padlock shackle engages a corresponding ear.

Abstract: A mop wringer which includes a combination of a pail and lid wherein the lid can be locked to the pail. A first roller is mounted for rotation about a first axis in the lid while the lid includes an opening and a lid panel is hinged to the lid within the opening. The hinged panel rotates about a hinged axis parallel to the first axis and a second roller is mounted to the hinged panel in an area of the hinged panel remote from the second hinged axis and where the second roller is adjacent the first roller and forms a nip therebetween. Spring means extend between the lid and the hinged panel to urge the hinged panel towards a closed position with the first and second rollers adjacent each other, but the hinged panel can be pressed downwardly to provide access through the opening for a mop.
