A container support for engaging and abutting a roller of a container for ground protection. A heptagonal sleeve is connected to a base, the sleeve including a medial section, a pair of angled portions, each angled portion upstanding angularly from the medial section, each angled portion transitioning into a vertical portion, and each vertical portion transitioning into a lip portion, thereby forming a pair of lip portions, wherein each lip portion angles toward a geometric center of the sleeve. As such, the lip portion is adapted to engage and abut a roller of a container. Further included are a pair of handles, each handle connected to the distal section at the base front edge, and each handle connected to the exterior surface of the sleeve. Each handle is generally rectangular and has a slot defined therein to aid in grasping and placement of the container support.

An interchangeable handle system for tumblers. The handle system includes an upper ring, a lower ring, and a handle. Each component can be removed and substituted with another like component. The handle system also includes components specifically adapted with accessories such as clip-on lines.

Aspects of the present invention relate to A beverage dispensing machine (1) for dispensing a beverage (BV) into a vessel (2). The beverage dispensing machine (1) has a upper engaging member (63) movable to a deployed position for engaging a upper portion of the vessel (2) and at least one side engaging member (68-1, 68-2) movable to a deployed position for engaging a sidewall (51) of the vessel (2). An actuating mechanism (5) is provided for deploying the upper engaging member (63) in conjunction with the at least one side engaging member (68-1, 68-2) to retain the vessel (2) in the beverage dispensing machine (1). Aspects of the present invention also relate to a vehicle having a beverage dispensing machine (1).

A method for making a container includes forming a first cavity of a container by shaping an inner wall so that a first surface of the inner wall defines the first cavity; forming a second cavity of the container by shaping an outer wall so that a third surface of the outer wall surrounds a second surface of the inner wall such that together the third and second surfaces define the second cavity; and connecting the inner and outer walls together. The method then includes forming a hole through the outer wall to expose the second cavity to the outside ambient environment and then applying an enamel coating, while preventing the enamel coating from being deposited in the hole. After the enamel coating is applied, the method includes heating the container to glaze the enamel coating and fix the coating to the one or more surfaces.

The present invention includes a drinking container with a multifunction lid. The lid can be configured to engage an opening of the container to retain liquid within the container. The lid may further include a first opening for dispensing liquid. Additionally, the lid may include a second opening for receiving a straw. The lid may also include a first cover for covering the first opening in a first position and for allowing access to the first opening in a second position. The lid may also include a second cover for covering the second opening in a first position and for allowing access to the second opening in a second position.

The present invention provides for a miniature beverage container with a keychain attached to the miniature beverage container to connect the miniature beverage container to an item. The miniature beverage container can include a beverage holding chamber for storing liquid. The miniature beverage container can include a removable lid that can be engaged and disengaged from an open end of the miniature beverage container.

A device for storing used oil, grease, and fat is disclosed. A disposable bag, holding the used oil, grease, and fat, also contains a plant-based solidifying blend in tablet or paste form. A heat-resistant container holds the bag, and includes a lid to prevent spills, a handle, and slots, used to secure the bag along with its contents. The solidifying blend causes the oil to solidify after coming into contact with the oil.

The present invention relates to a dumping-type automatic quantitative liquid discharging device, which comprises an accommodating cavity for accommodating liquid, a first liquid storage cavity and a second liquid storage cavity for storing quantitative liquid, and a fluid channel; the second liquid storage cavity further comprises a liquid storage part; the liquid storage part captures and stores a part of liquid to become a new quantitative liquid; when the device is reset, the quantitative liquid stored in the second liquid storage cavity will be received and stored by the first liquid storage cavity; and a quantitative liquid discharging method, which comprises the following steps: providing a dumping-type automatic quantitative liquid discharging device, and pouring the liquid into an accommodating cavity; connecting a device cover with the accommodating cavity; tilting the dumping-type automatic quantitative liquid discharging device to allow quantitative liquid to flow out.

A method for making a container includes forming a first cavity of a container by shaping an inner wall so that a first surface of the inner wall defines the first cavity; forming a second cavity of the container by shaping an outer wall so that a third surface of the outer wall surrounds a second surface of the inner wall such that together the third and second surfaces define the second cavity; and connecting the inner and outer walls together. The method then includes forming a hole through the outer wall to expose the second cavity to the outside ambient environment and then applying an enamel coating on at least one of the following: the first surface of the inner wall and a fourth surface of the outer wall that is exposed to the outside ambient environment, while preventing the enamel coating from being deposited in the hole. After the enamel coating is applied, the method includes heating the container to glaze the enamel coating and fix the coating to the one or more surfaces. After the enamel is glazed, the method includes removing air from the second cavity; and then while the air is removed from the second cavity, sealing the second cavity so that the pressure inside the second cavity is less than the pressure in the outside ambient environment.
