Abstract: A speaker proximity system has a speaker having a housing and audio components located therein. The audio components have a wire attached thereto threaded through a hole in the housing and through a nearby channel. The channel is made from fabric, leather or similar flexible materials. It is also associated with a stability device that provides weight support on another side of a sofa, chair or similar device. Another speaker and channel are similarly provided and are unified within an intermediate device that integrates the both channels with the stability device.

Abstract: Implementations of a public use water testing kiosk. Aspects associated with particular implementations of a water testing kiosk comprise, among others, automatically testing water based on user wants or issues, receiving a water sample for testing from the individual, providing a closeable door between the water testing and the user while the water is being tested, returning the water sample container to the user housing for the kiosk may surround all of the system parts or may be split into a housing shell and a testing unit that is inside the shell. Testing implements may be cuvette based, test strip based, probe based or other.

Abstract: A bathroom accessory adapted to be mounted on a wall and includes an enclosure having front and rear faces and a pair of separate, inner liquid chamber formed between said faces. Separate pump dispensers are mounted to the enclosure and communicate with outlet openings in each chamber. A spring biased reel, carrying a retractable flexible cable, is mounted within the enclosure with the free end of the cable extending through an opening in the front face. A soap holder comprising an open mesh or liquid permeable flexible material is releasably connected to the free end of the cable. Therefore the soap holder, carrying a bar of solid soap, may be extended away from the enclosure for use and returned automatically to a position closely adjacent the enclosure upon release by the user.
