  • Publication number: 20040004420
    Abstract: A versatile drawer organizer structure for segregating a plurality of items. The structure includes a main compartment and two adjustable side compartments located on each side of the main compartment. Each of the side compartments can slide toward the main compartment or away from the main compartment thus decreasing and increasing the size of the side compartments and decreasing and increasing the overall width of the structure so that the structure precisely fits within the inside width of the drawer. The overall width of the structure can be adjusted without cutting of the material making up the structure and without making any permanent alterations to the structure. Thus, the structure can be easily sized to precisely fit the inside width of a large number of different drawers and many other enclosed spaces.

  • Patent number: 6179134
    Abstract: An expandable dish rack contains a drawer-like tray within and in the bottom of the dish rack. Water from dishes on the dish rack drains through frontal slots in the downwardly slanted floor into the tray. If additional dish space is required, the tray is drawn outwards, acting as an extended dish rack and a drainage board. In this position water drains through the same frontal slots and collects in the tray. The floor slots in the dish rack permit water drainage only into the tray whether the tray is in its outward or withdrawn position. The spaced apart ridges on the tray keep dishes above the collected water on the bottom surface of the tray. The tray is removable and the water is expelled therefrom.

  • Patent number: 5634275
    Abstract: This invention combines the nail clipper and the tweezer into one unit. The tweezer part of the Twipper is in the space between the opposing metal parts of the nail clipper, and is held in place by the post that anchors the lever in between the opposing metal parts. The tweezer does not effect the operation of the clipper unit it is rotated 180.degree., extending through the jaws of the clipper. At this position, exerting force on the lever, which compresses the jaws of the clipper, forces together the jaws of the tweezer (scissor, etc.).
