Abstract: An electronic kitchen faucet dispensing apparatus capable of dispensing measured operator-selectable quantities of hot or cold liquid into a container with a flow rate suitable to prevent splashing and loss of the ensuing mixture while maintaining a rapid flow rate to quickly fill larger containers. The dispensing faucet can be used for measuring liquids required for preparing recipes, making instant beverages, or in the preparation of pre-packaged foods, and may be retrofitted to an existing faucet. The apparatus may utilize various controls to automatically control liquid flow, including 1) flow sensors and control valving; 2) positive-displacement pumps; and 3) flow-restrictors with shut-off valves. Also, it can be connected to a garbage disposal to prevent damage to the disposal.

Abstract: A work station with an adjustable height work surface includes a telescoping height adjustment mechanism. Stabilizers, spaced apart from the telescoping height adjustment mechanism, prohibit rotation of the work surface. A pair of guide members is attached to support walls by way of slides. The slides allow movement of the work surface vertically prohibiting rotational movement of the work surface. The workstation is provided with sidewalls allowing the workstation to be used with other pieces in modular configuration.
