Abstract: A uniform beverage-container, or cylindrical-object, holder, having flexible arms and a clip. The body is a substantially truncated cylinder with a partially cut front area forming arms, into which a bottle may be placed. An anchoring member in the rear part of the bottle holder serves as a clip for attaching the bottle, or cylindrical object, holder to clothing or baggage. A lip is formed about the anchoring member preventing surface-to-surface contact between the anchoring member and the user's body. The bottom of the holder has a laterally positioned base. The base and arms flex, allowing a container or cylindrical object, to be removed in a motion that is directed downward and outward away from the clip. This allows a container to be removed without releasing the clip from what it is attached to.

Abstract: An improved supporting closure for a container adapted to hold a viscous liquid and having an externally threaded neck comprising a pivotably connected dispensing cap and a container support. The dispensing cap has an internally threaded, dual diameter, section arranged to fit two sizes of threaded necks, and a projecting end piece defining a dispensing outlet. The container support comprises a substantially dish-shaped member with a peripheral skirt adapted to rest on a flat supporting surface and a central recessed section to receive the projecting end piece of the dispensing cap and a plug to block the dispensing outlet when the container is supported in an inverted position.

Abstract: A bagel slicer comprising a food holder having a receptacle for holding a bagel, and a blade holder with a blade, a handle and a pair of blade guarding walls. The food holder has a base and a pair of spaced vertical receptacle walls extending upwardly from the base forming a pair of opposed vertical slots. The blade holder has a handle, a pair of spaced transparent blade guarding walls surrounding and guided along the vertical walls of the food holder, and a blade having a pair of serrated cutting edges intersecting one another. The blade is arranged and dimensioned to ride in the vertical slots and to traverse the central part of the receptacle when the handle is vertically actuated to slice the food article. The bagel is held by a cradle which has blade protection lips to guard the blade cutting edge at the lower travel limit.
