Abstract: A frangible seal breaking and aperture resealing device for a beverage container which utilizes a handle being pivotally mounted on the top of the beverage container. The handle is movable from a stowage position to a frangible seal breaking position and then to an aperture resealing position. There is incorporated on the top a camming protuberance which has the function of locating the handle in an inclined or canted position so as to facilitate its movement to frangibly separate a break-away tab incorporated within the top of the beverage container. The camming protuberance also exerts a biasing force tending to maintain the handle in the resealing position.

Abstract: A portable heating device includes a cabinet, a source of heat, support for a towel so as to exposed the towel to the heat, and an opening at the top to the heat. The towel heating device of the invention may be used to warm or dry towels or other like cloth materials.

Abstract: A lid for a liquid container having a substantially circular opening is disclosed. The lid includes a drinking spout and a cover integrally connected to a portion of the lid by means of a connecting member, with a cover adapted to fit over the drinking spout in friction-fit relationship.

Abstract: A housing for warming or heating a towelette containing a compartment, a heating element associated with the compartment, a plate for directing heat uniformly from the heating element to a towelette, insulative support for said towelette above the heat element and the plate, and a circuit for supplying power to the heating element. Power is provided by AC, with a switch for energizing the device and a thermostat for controlling the temperature. Towelettes warmed by the device are useful for refreshingly cleaning the hands, face or other parts of the body.

Abstract: A cup holder having a cylinder portion for receiving a cup which has no handles and a releasable handle therefor. The releasable handle has a shank, one or more extensions from the upper portion of the shank and a platform at the base of the shank. On the distal end of each extension, there are receptacles for releasably engaging a protrusion on a horizontal surface of an outwardly extending ledge on the upper portion of the cylinder. The platform has means for releasably receiving a lip in the lower rim of the cylinder.

Abstract: A novelty glass or the like made of glass or synthetic plastic wherein a representation or indicia of a sport figure in an action mode on or in the surface of the glass and wherein a bracket number is disposed in relation to the indicia representation to releasably hold a swizzle stick or the like which swizzle stick or the like is in the simulation of a member used in sports whether it be a baseball bat, tennis racket, or for example, ski pole, such that it appears that the swizzle stick is being actively held by the sport figure indicia or simulated representation, such that the swizzle stick is releasably held so that it may be conveniently in hand for use as a swizzle stick holder of olives, cherries or the like and for ease of association with the glass with which it is used after the swizzle stick has served its purpose.

Abstract: A cabinet for heating cloth material such as towels, is provided, capable of mounting on a towel rack or other support. The cabinet of the invention, which is capable of warming or drying towels or other cloth materials, includes a pair of opposed covers which are hingedly attached along one edge, a metal plate for supporting a towel, the metal plate being surrounded by resistance heating elements and being hingedly attached intermediate the two covers, associated circuitry for providing power to the resistance heating elements and brackets for mounting the cabinet on a wall-mounted towel rack.

Abstract: A compact portable radio is provided, comprising a disk-like body. The radio has the usual circuitry for detecting and amplifying a radio (AM or FM) signal, an earphone assembly comprising a speaker adapted to be received by the ear of the listener and secured to a head band adapted to partially encompass the head of the listener and a wire for conveying the amplified radio signal to the speaker, and volume control. The disk-like body is provided with storage space for storing the wire and also the head band and at least a portion of the speaker. Such storage space provides a facile way of keeping the wire and earphone assembly from becoming tangled when the radio is not in use.

Abstract: This invention is directed towards a cup holder for cooperative association with a cup comprising (a) an upper expansible collar portion to receive and retain therein, in a releasable friction fit, a portion of the sidewall of the cup adjacent the upper collar portion; (b) a spaced, cooperating lower extending support portion having an upper surface adapted to frictionally and releasably engage and retain the bottom of the cup thereon; and (c) an intermediate depending, extending, shank portion outwardly spaced from the upper collar portion and the lower extending support portion forming a hand-graspable surface or handle, spaced from the exterior of the cup. In an alternate embodiment, the handle is releasably secured to the upper collar portion and the lower extending support portion.

Abstract: A disposable shaving implement is provided, which is adapted to incorporate a tube of shaving lotion in its handle. A tube squeezing means is provided to dispense shaving lotion as desired. In one embodiment, the shaving lotion is dispensed from the bottom of the handle, using a dispensing closure that rotates in one position to permit dispensing and in another position to prevent dispensing.
