Abstract: A system for decorative space-saving measuring cups is a set of modified nesting doll that can be used to measure sequential volumetric quantities. Each of the nesting dolls can split apart into a first measuring cup and a second measuring cup, which are sized to hold two different volumes of a substance. The second measuring cup of an arbitrary nesting doll is always elevated by the second measuring cup of the next-largest nesting doll so that the second measuring cup of the arbitrary nesting doll is easier to grasp.

Abstract: A fruit juicer (10) having a juicing body (52) and a base (54). The juicing body (10) has a tube (30) with a distal end (12), a downstream-facing surface (18) at the distal end (12), and a tube outer surface (36); a cutting element (20) disposed at the distal end (12) having a cutting element downstream end (24) disposed flush with or upstream of the downstream-facing surface (18); a raised thread (40) raised radially outward from the tube outer surface (36); an opening (28) in the tube (30) having at least a portion disposed between the distal end (12) and the raised thread (40); a flange (44); and a relief section (42) between the raised thread (40) and the flange (44). The base (54) is connected to the juicing body (52) proximate the flange (44), and has a base wall (56) defining an inner chamber (68) in fluid communication with the opening (28) and configured to contain liquid.
