  • Patent number: 6318575
    Abstract: An egg server for cooked eggsin the shell. The server includes a bottom wall from which a sidewall extends, to form an interior which partially receives an egg. An inclined support face is formed within the interior to accommodate a wide variety of egg sizes, increasing the usefulness of the server. The lower outer face of the server may be of reduced size to nest within the interior of another of the egg servers, permitting multiple egg servers to be placed in a stacked position for storage. An upper rim of the sidewall may have a shape which mates with itself in an inverted position, permitting the upper rims of two egg servers to abut when the upper of the two egg servers rest upon the other egg server in an inverted relationship referred to as an insulating position. In this insulating position the two egg servers combine to encase an egg, retaining its heat prior to serving.

  • Patent number: 6302348
    Abstract: A counter-top paper towel holder having a base, a mounting rod extending upward from the base, and a stabilizing extension extending upward from the base at a position radially spaced from the mounting rod. The stabilizing extension includes a handle portion and a presser arm spaced radially outward from the handle potion. The presser arm is resilient, and includes a free end for abutting the roll of paper towels mounted on the mounting rod. Grasping the handle with one hand provides support for the paper towel holder against gross movement as the free towels are pulled from the roll using the other hand. The thumb of the grasping hand may press against the presser arm to force the free end against the roll. The free end thus prevent further rotation of the roll, and assists in breaking the lines of perforation to dispense the towels.

  • Patent number: 6279788
    Abstract: A container for storing items, such as foodstuffs. The container includes a sidewall which includes a monolithic window portion having greater transparency than the remainder of the sidewall. This is achieved by forming the container of a clear, tinted material, and forming the window portion with a reduced thickness, and/or forming the window portion with a smooth surface and forming the remainder of the sidewall with an obscuring texture. A cover may be used to close the container, and may form a seal with the container. The cover may include pivot pins to permit the cover to be pivoted to a position breaking the seal, thus permitting easier removal of the cover. A pouring insert may also be used with the container. The pouring insert is mounted to the mouth of the container, and includes a main pour spout and a secondary pour spout. Both pour spouts include pour guides to direct spilled contents back into the container.
