The invention relates to a kitchen device (100) comprising: a grip (120) for manually holding the device, the grip defining a grip area (112), a first suction foot (130) attached to the device (100) and arranged to secure the device (100) to a surface (150) by means of suction against the surface (150), an actuator (110) connected to the first suction foot (130) and extending in the grip area (112), the actuator (110) being arranged to transfer an actuating force (111) acting on the actuator (110) into a releasing force (131) acting on the first suction foot (130) to release the first suction foot (130) from the surface (150).

This device can be released from the surface with an improved ease of use, because holding the device and releasing the device from the surface effectively have become a single, intuitive manual action by the user.

A touch free, spice dispenser is provided including a container for holding spices, a holder for supporting the container on an external support, a grinding mechanism and a sensor for activating the grinding mechanism in response to the presence of an object. The container has an open end and a closed end. The holder includes an end cap for support of the container, a hook for engagement with a support member and a strap extending between the hook and the end cap. The grinding mechanism is positioned in the end cap of the holder and is in electrical communication with a contact pad located on the hook. The grinding mechanism includes a grinder plate and a motor to rotate the grinder plate in response to a signal received from the sensor. Holes in the grinder plate and apertures in the end cap allow for passage of the spices out of the dispenser. A support assembly is also provided for supporting the dispenser above a food item.

Adjustable concealed hanging device for furniture with an anti-tipping safety feature, of the type used for mounting kitchen furniture and the like, having a hanging hook that hooks onto a support plate screwed to the wall; and, together with the hanging hook, there is a V-shaped resilient shim with a broad upper edge, which upper edge, at the time of mounting, is located opposite the underside of the bend in the support plate.

A cup holder for single cups, includes housing means of the cup in the cup holder with grip on the edge or in proximity to the upper edge of the cup and supporting means of the cup holder for supporting the so housed cup; a plane or upper surface of covering of the cup, when it is housed in the cup holder with such an extension as to cover entirely the cup and rigidly connected to the housing means of the cup. The cup holder has the supporting means placed on the side opposite the side of introduction of the cup in the housing means; the housing means includes a housing guide for the grip on an upper edge of a cup which is inserted in it; and the supporting means includes a short shank and a slider inserted in rectilinear or arched storage elements, arranged in a horizontal or even vertical direction.

A device for suspending a cooking thermometer includes a cooking vessel interface having a cooking vessel attachment, a thermometer receiver, and an extension member. The device for suspending a cooking thermometer is useful for placing a cooking thermometer within a cooking vessel at a distance away from the outer walls of the cooking vessel such that the thermal effects of the heat from the outer walls of the cooking vessel are reduced to provide a more accurate temperature reading for the contents of the cooking vessel.

A dual side-hook structure is a hook unit with four hooks. The hook unit is latched on a horizontal, vertical or inclined rope or a long strip object without shifting to hang up an object without limitation in space. The hook unit includes positioning hooks on an upper end of the hook unit and hanging hooks on a lower end of the hook unit. A rope is enabled to pass through the positioning hooks or hanging hooks at two sides of the hook unit, and then the hook unit is secured on a fixed point on the rope without sliding freely. Edges of the positioning hooks and hanging hooks include abutting devices to prevent the rope from sliding out of the hook unit. The hook unit is positioned on a vertical rope by using the hanging hooks horizontally. The positioning hooks and the hanging hooks are used interchangeably. The entire hook unit is used very flexibly and versatilely without limitation in space, and is especially usable in a wild field, an outdoor area or a camping ground.
