Abstract: A dispenser system includes a first container configured to contain a first fluid, a second container configured to contain a second fluid, a faucet coupled with the first container and the second container via first and second hoses, respectively, and including first and second switches installed on the faucet, and a controller configured to control dispensing of the first and second fluids through the faucet. When the first switch is turned on while the second switch is turned off, the controller dispenses the first fluid to the faucet through the first hose. When the first switch is turned off while the second switch is turned on, the controller dispenses the second fluid to the faucet through the second hose. The dispenser system is configured and dimensioned to prevent cross contamination between the first and second hoses.

Abstract: A wastewater reuse system including a wastewater tank configured to treat wastewater from a contaminant side of a water treatment device, such as a reverse osmosis (RO) filtration system, such that the treated water can then be delivered to a fluid delivery device (e.g., a faucet, a side sprayer, etc.) for reuse.

Abstract: A towel bar sink having a sink basin including openings that can accommodate a removable accessory bar and a light module.

Abstract: A beverage cooler that includes a housing defining an interior space adapted to hold a beverage container; a refrigeration system for cooling the interior space of the housing; and at least one opening in a sidewall panel for receiving a conveyance therethrough whereby the conveyance is connectable to the beverage container and a dispensing unit located remote from the beverage cooler. The beverage cooler may have exterior dimensions which define a width of less than 24 inches (61 cm), a front-to-back depth of less than 25 inches (63.5 cm) and a height of less than 35 inches (88.9 cm). Such dimensions would allow the beverage cooler to be installed in a standard 24 inch cabinet opening below a countertop.

Abstract: An interlocking panel system for top-down installation on an underlying structure including a plurality of panels, with an uphill course and a downhill course where each panel is generally rectangular, having an uphill edge and opposing downhill edge. An interlocking member is disposed along the uphill edge, and a receiving member adapted to receive the interlocking member and a joining flange are disposed along the downhill edge. A panel of the uphill course is affixed to an underlying structure via fasteners through the joining flange. The interlocking member of a panel of the downhill course is insertable into the receiving member of the uphill course, and the position of the panel of the downhill course is adjustable within the span of the receiving member.

Abstract: A Fishing Lure Jig is formed firstly about a split ring or keychain ring that has a double wire portion and also a single wire portion. Thus, a fishing hook having a tightly wound rounded end threaded upon the single wire portion can be effectively stuck there so that it can not proceed up and over the double wire portion as the rounded end is too small to ride through both wires (the double wire portion) at the same time. Then a second hook is attached at its rounded end in the double wire portion and a connector hoop is also loaded thereon so that the first hook with the narrow rounded end is stuck between these two. A connection chain is attached to the connector hoop and a ball is attached to the opposite end thereof using a similar mechanism.
