Abstract: A vegetable slicing shield includes a root, a u-shaped handle, and a plurality of tines. The root is medially disposed between the u-shaped handle and the tines. The u-shaped handle is coupled with the root at opposing lateral regions of a first side of the root. The plurality of tines have first ends coupled with a second side of the root and extending outward from the root to second ends which form a row spaced apart points. Open slots are defined between adjacent tines of the plurality of tines. A subset of the tines are shaped between their first ends and their second ends to form slices of a containment basket which is curved in three-dimensions.

Abstract: A toilet shield comprises a tube, a first arm, a second arm, and a raised collar. The first arm is coupled to a first side edge of a lumen of the tube. The second arm is coupled to a second side edge of the lumen of the tube. The tube is configured such that the lumen of the tube opens in response to the first arm and the second arm being extended in generally opposite directions. The raised collar is disposed between and rises above the first arm and the second arm and is configured to deflect liquid feces expelled from a defecating human toward a rear portion of a toilet. An expandable pleat is disposed on each side of the raised collar.

Abstract: A toilet shield comprises a tube, a first arm, and a second arm. The first arm is coupled with a first side of an opening of the tube and comprises a first plurality of adjustment holes configured into the first arm. The second arm is coupled to a second side of the opening of the tube and comprises a second plurality of adjustment holes configured into the second arm. The tube is configured such that a lumen of the tube opens in response to the arms being extended in generally opposite in directions.
