  • Patent number: 11613287
    Abstract: A cart, such as a kitchen cart, has a bottom shelf supported by leg members. The leg members further support a central shelf or basket at a user-desired position along the legs, and a top support. The top support can retain a top work surface thereto. On at least one side of the cart, arms can pivot outward, adjacent the top work surface, to support one or more work surface extension members. Typically, there may be one work surface extension member on each side of the cart, providing the user with additional workspace and providing the option of removal without interfering with the functionality of the cart.

  • Publication number: 20220095790
    Abstract: A modular closet system provides reconfigurable closet capacity and an appearance of a customized closet in any of the configurations. The system includes at least two sideframes cooperating to define a space therebetween creating a closet module when assembled. A series of through holes on an inside surface of the sideframes are used to attach a variety of storage devices from the system's sides, which may be re-positioned by user design. When assembled, any of the fasteners used to attach the storage devices are hidden from a front view perspective of the system. Once assembled, the perimeter of the storage devices cooperates with the frames to block the view of the fasteners. Some embodiments may extend closet capacity by including a hanging rod system that connects two frame modules together via the through hole system on respective closet modules, which when assembled also blocks the view of any fasteners.

  • Patent number: 9750533
    Abstract: Exfoliating heads with an abrasive surface are disclosed for use with a personal care appliance. The personal care appliance is configured to oscillate the exfoliating head to provide improved smoothing and exfoliation of a subject's epidermis with or without the antecedent application of skin care formula. The oscillating action of the exfoliating head may be rotational, translational, or a combination thereof. In use, the personal care appliance oscillates the abrasive surface of the exfoliating head over a subject's skin in order to remove dead skin from the subject's epidermis. The exfoliating heads may be used to treat rough skin conditions, such as calluses or corns, which have developed on a patient's hand or foot.
