Abstract: A jewelry organizer (10) includes a housing preferably formed on interconnected housing portions (11, 12). The front of the organizer (10) is provided with an assembly of bins (70) which, when released by a release mechanism (25) open to provide access to the contents of the bins (70). Side doors (53) are hingedly attached to one housing portion (12) and have a hook (60) thereon to carry hangable items of jewelry. A rear open compartment (42) likewise has hooks (51, 52) to carry similar items of jewelry. Like the bins (70), a top compartment (63) having a pivotal cover (64) can also carry smaller items of jewelry.

Abstract: A container (10) for holding and storing items, such as cosmetics and jewelry, in an organized fashion includes a base portion (12) and a cover portion (11). Tray assemblies (48, 49) are connected to the base portion (12) by link arms (72, 92) for movement from a position within the base portion (12) to a position over the side walls (33, 34) of the base portion (12). Each tray assembly (48, 49) includes a tray having a plurality of compartments (61, 62, 83, 84) and pivotal holders (68, 86) which are specially configured to hold specific items of cosmetics and jewelry such as lipstick and earrings. A mirror case (50) is pivotally attached to the cover portion (11) and carries a mirror (54) therein.

Abstract: A carpenter's workbench is disclosed comprising a freestanding frame body (4) supported by four legs (6). A longitudinal channel (46) of T-shape profile and a V-shape groove (48) extend into a top surface (14) of the body (4) and are adapted to receive and render stationary lengths of lumber and tubular pipe, respectively, such that ends which overhang the workbench may be severed. Alternatively, a length of two by four inch wood may be situated horizontally and secured within an upper portion (50) of the channel (46) to provide a wood work surface if desired. Peripherally located surfaces (28, 36, 64) are provided having means (30, 32, 38, 62) for securing work tools to the workbench. Storage compartments (40, 42) are further provided to store hardware.

Abstract: A container (10) for holding items such as cosmetics, jewelry and the like includes a base portion (12) and a cover portion (11) attached thereto. Within the container (10) is a removable tray (51) which includes a basket portion (52) carried by a surrounding support wall (58). The base (12) of the container (10) supports and holds the tray (51) on a plurality of ribs (77) disposed inwardly on the upturned arcuate side surfaces (33, 34) of the base (12). When the container (10) is open, the tray (51) may be removed and selectively positioned outside the container (10). In addition, the tray (51) may be selectively positioned on the cover (11) which includes similar ribs (80) to those found in the base (12). The tray (51) also includes a mirror assembly (67) which is hingedly attached thereto and may be used as a lid for the basket (52) of the tray ( 51).

Abstract: A domed lid for a waste receptacle is disclosed and comprises a domed external surface (4) and a frontal recess (12) formed therein. A door (20) is pivotally mounted within the recess and has a central domed surface (34) surrounded by an edge flange border (36). A raised ridge (44) extends about the door periphery, and defines a channel with the door surface (34) positioned to collect water from sides of the lid (14,16) and direct the collected water downward over a radiused lower recess sidewall (18) and there to a lower rim of the lid. The lid further comprised spring members (30) which bias the door flange (36) against inward lid surfaces defining the recess, further deterring the entry of water around the door and into the interior of the lid. The shape of the recess and door further enable the lid to interstack with like-configured lids for efficiency in shipping and display at retail.

Abstract: A bucket (10) has a bottom surface (11) and opposed side walls (12, 13) as well as adjoining opposed end walls (14, 15) extending upwardly from the bottom surface (11) forming an open top defined by a rim (21). A bail (24) has one end pivotally attached to the side walls (12, 13) and the other end carries a handle (28). Spouts (18, 19) are formed at the top of each end wall (14, 15). An assembly (33, 37) is provided to hold the bail (24) in a generally horizontal position adjacent to the rim (21). When the bail is not being so held and is pivoted such that its handle (28) is adjacent to an end wall (15), its pivot length is such that when the bucket (10) is stacked with like buckets (10A, 10B, 10C, 10D, 10E), the handles (28) of the lowermost three buckets (10, 10A, 10 B) are underneath a spout (19) of the lowermost bucket (10) and the handles of the fourth and higher buckets (10C, 10D, 10E) rest in the spout of the third bucket therebelow.

Abstract: A dish draining rack and drain tray assembly is disclosed comprising a dish rack (4) having handles (38) extending outwardly from opposite ends, and a central dish receiving compartment for stackably receiving dishes. A tray (2) is further provided which dually functions as a tray below the rack for collecting drainage water therefrom, or as a lid for attachment to the top of the rack, whereby enclosing the rack central compartment. Positively engaging attachment means (36,38) is further disclosed for attaching the tray (2) to the rack (4), which can then function as a storage container if so desired by the user.
