Abstract: A container system includes a tray support unit and at least one tray. The tray is received in tray guides of the tray support unit that allow the tray to extend from and retract into the tray support unit. The tray support unit includes a bracket with a pair of arms, a frame and a compression element, which components facilitate secure but removable attachment of the container system to a fixed item without the need for tools or hardware. The tray may comprise a plurality of apertures for securely receiving a plurality of items within the tray.

Abstract: An apparatus and methods for preparing, cleaning, draining, and serving food items, such as, pasta, fruits and vegetables are described herein. In some embodiments, an apparatus can include a vessel configured to selectively contain a liquid. The vessel includes a bottom portion having a plurality of apertures, and a wall extending upwardly from the bottom portion. An armature assembly is coupled to the vessel for rotational movement relative to the vessel between a closed configuration and an open configuration. A sealing mechanism coupled to the armature assembly is configured to selectively seal the plurality of apertures in the closed configuration, thereby preventing liquid contained by the vessel from flowing out of the vessel, and selectively open the plurality of apertures in the opened configuration, thereby providing a fluid passageway out of the bottom portion of the vessel.

Abstract: A container system includes a tray support unit and at least one tray. The tray is received in tray guides of the tray support unit that allow the tray to extend from and retract into the tray support unit. The tray support unit includes two arms that are biased toward one another to facilitate removable attachment of the container system to a fixed item without the need for tools or hardware. The tray may comprise a plurality of apertures for securely receiving a plurality of items within the tray. Additional tray guides may attach to the tray guides of the support unit to allow additional trays to be incorporated on the tray support unit.

Abstract: A detachable container system includes a container body and a fastener arrangement. The container body securely receives and holds an item (while allowing components or parts of the item to extend out of the body), and the fastener arrangement removably attaches the container body to an object. The container body is removably attachable to the fastener arrangement. The container body may also comprise at least one closable lid for securing an item in the container body. The body may also comprise a light source, power source, and/or a data port thereon.

Abstract: A foldable tray attachment for a chair comprises a middle member, a pair of side panels, at least one holder, at least one support member and a securing mechanism. The middle member is capable of supporting a body portion of a user seated on the chair. Each side panel of the pair of side panels is pivotally coupled to the middle member at a respective longitudinal edge for facilitating folding of the foldable tray attachment. The each side panel includes at least one recess. The at least one holder is capable of being removably coupled to the at least one recess. The at least one support member is fixedly attached to a portion of a front surface of the foldable tray attachment to support the pair of side panels in an open position. The securing mechanism is configured to detachably couple the foldable tray attachment to the chair.
