Abstract: The invention involves an automatic shut-off waste disposer that may be activated with a control module, which utilizes a programmable automatic shut-off routine. This enables a user to turn on the garbage disposer and walk away without having to turn the disposer off. In exemplary embodiments, activation of the disposer includes actuation of a solenoid valve for injecting a stream of water flow into the dispenser chamber in order to facilitate a proper water flow while the disposer is actively disposing of food waste. In some exemplary embodiments, activation of the disposer may be achieved via a user-activated pneumatic actuator, which may be installed in proximity to the sink to which the disposer is coupled. In some exemplary embodiments, the disposer implements a sensor for automatically shutting of a motor of the disposer upon a predetermined event.

Abstract: A disposer is disclosed, having one or more parts made with anti-microbial properties in order to protect the disposer against odors and to resist the growth of microbial organisms within the disposer.

Abstract: A garbage disposer is provided with a wireless receiver switch, for operating the disposer from a wireless transmitter, without any additional wiring or interface between disposer and receiver. A disposer system includes disposer, receiver, and transmitter. A kit is also enclosed, which includes a disposer case extender, receiver, and transmitter.

Abstract: A bracket assembly for fixedly mounting an RF antenna to a support structure while permitting azimuth adjustment comprising a first bracket member adapted for fixed securance to the support structure and having a forwardly extending plate defining a first bolt hole and a spaced away arcuate slot defined by a radius of curvature about the center of the first bolt hole. A second bracket member mounted to the first bracket member and adapted for mounting an antenna, the second bracket member providing second and third bolt holes; whereby when the first and second fasteners are loose, the second bolt may move along the length of the arcuate slot to adjust the angular relationship of the bracket members and when the fasteners are tightened, the angular relationship of the bracket members is fixed.
