Abstract: This invention concerns a line reeling device for reeling front and back lines of a kite. The device includes a reeling mechanism comprising a first reel and a second reel which are located in an enclosure and on which the front and back lines are, in use, wound respectively. The reels are arranged so that their rotation in one direction retracts the lines and their rotation in the other direction deploys the lines. The reeling mechanism further includes reel connecting means which is operable to cause the reels to rotate in harmony in one configuration and rotate independently in another configuration. The reeling mechanism also has a braking mechanism for controlling rotation of the reels and a control mechanism which is in connection with the braking mechanism. The control mechanism is operable between a first, locked position wherein rotation of the reels is obstructed and a second, released position wherein rotation of the reels is allowed.

Abstract: A drawer based dispensing system includes a drawer with receptacle moveable along a drawer guide between open and closed positions. During usage, a fill hole allows material from a container to enter the receptacle on a side of the drawer that faces an interior of the container when the drawer is positioned in the closed position. A dispensing hole allows material to exit the receptacle on an opposite side of the receptacle away from the interior of the container when the drawer is positioned in the open position. The dispensing system may be integrated into a lid of the container, which is flipped to sit lid-side-down by a user. A funnel may direct material into the fill hole. The drawer may extend to outside the container through an opening to expose the dispensing hole or the dispensing hole below the receptacle may align with a dispensing hole on the container.
