Abstract: A kit for containing water within a bathing space, and a bathing space with components of the kit installed thereto. The kit includes a shower curtain with an extended portion, and a plurality of seam liners configured to adhere to portions of the bathing space with caulk or seams thereon. The extended portion of the shower curtain extends from a main portion of the shower curtain into the bathing space and prevents water from escaping to an exterior of the bathing space. The plurality of seam liners are adhered to portions of the bathing space to protect caulk or seams. The kit is useful for extending a lifespan of the bathing space, and for preventing water accumulation and resulting damage to a floor of a bathroom.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a tube-type cosmetic container for discharging liquid contents in a droplet form, the container having a sealing member, which is coupled to the inside of an overcap and has a sealing protrusion for closing a discharge hole of a contents discharge tube, and pulling a sealing cap downward by the tensioning of an elastic supporting body so as to maintain a state in which the sealing protrusion further comes in close contact with the inner wall of the content discharge tube, when the overcap rotates such that the sealing member is coupled to a discharge part, thereby enabling the leakage of contents to be efficiently prevented regardless of an injection deviation and an assembly deviation between components.

The lid assembly includes a lid. The lid is configured to cover the bowl. The hinge assembly is operable between a first position and a second position. The hinge assembly includes a mounting base coupler, a lid coupler, a first hinge member, and a second hinge member. The mounting base coupler is coupled to the body top surface. The lid coupler is coupled to the lid. The first hinge member is coupled to the mounting base coupler and the lid coupler. The second hinge member is coupled to the mounting base coupler and the lid coupler. The lid covers the bowl when the hinge assembly is in the second position.

Abstract: A grease gun is provided comprising a body having a reservoir bore with a plurality of grooves; a grease reservoir is in communication with the reservoir bore and has a reservoir groove on an outside surface of the reservoir. A retention fastener is received by a groove and is in operational engagement with the reservoir groove to removably retain the reservoir. The retention fastener may be connected to a fastener bracket via an aperture. The bracket is connected to a push-button via a connection mechanism. The grease reservoir may be removed or mounted to the connection aperture by exerting force on the button which transfers the force to the bracket via the connection mechanism. The force causes movement of the bracket along the aperture which deforms the retention fastener to allow the grease reservoir to be mounted/removed.

Abstract: Among other things, a dispensing device and/or a refill container are provided. The dispensing device may comprise a dispenser component configured to dispense a refill material. A sensor component may be configured to identify an optical property (e.g., whether an optical brightener is present in the refill material) of the refill material. The dispensing device may evaluate the optical property against an optical profile to determine whether the refill material is a valid refill material (e.g., comprises the optical brightener) or an invalid refill material (e.g., does not comprise the optical brightener). Operation of the dispensing device may be enabled based upon the refill material being the valid refill material. If the refill material comprises the invalid refill material, then operation of the dispensing device may be disabled and/or a flush option (e.g., evacuating the invalid refill material from the dispensing device) may be activated.
