Abstract: A method and apparatus for storing and dispensing a viscous product. The product and a propellant are stored in a container on a base, and the propellant forms a head space. In a storage configuration, the container rests on the base, the base rests on a surface, and the propellant in the head space and the product tend to move toward positions wherein the propellant in the head space is at a higher elevation than the product and the product is at a higher elevation than an inlet to a dispenser. In one aspect, the base comprises a first portion, a second portion comprising a lid, a sidewall comprising a window, and an interior. In a second aspect, the method comprises storing the container in the storage configuration, removing the lid to expose a dispenser, dispensing the product, and viewing an interior of the base through the window.

Abstract: A movable table assembly includes a base, a vertical support, and a table. The base includes a longitudinal frame member and at least one wheel. The vertical support connects with the base at either a first mounting location adjacent a first end of the longitudinal frame member or a second mounting location adjacent a second, opposite, end of the longitudinal frame member. The table connects with the vertical support and is vertically offset from the base. The table extends away from the vertical support toward the second end of the longitudinal frame member when the vertical support is connected with the base at the first mounting location. The table extends away from the vertical support toward the first end of the longitudinal frame member when the vertical support is connected with the base at the second mounting location.

Abstract: A liquid extraction cleaning device comprises a main unit, a liquid pump, a flexible hose, and a hand tool. The main unit comprises a vacuum pump. The hand tool comprises a vacuum inlet port, an agitator, a spray nozzle, and a grip portion. The vacuum inlet port of the hand tool is operatively connected to the vacuum pump via the hose passageway in a manner such that the vacuum pump is capable of drawing fluid through the vacuum inlet port and into the hose passageway. The spray nozzle is operatively connected to the liquid pump in a manner such that the liquid pump is capable of forcing liquid out of the spray nozzle.
