    摘要: A bottled water plastic cap opener and flow controller assembly includes a three-part unit forming a hollow housing which has a generally circular cross section and is slightly tapered from end to end. The larger end of the housing is open and has a diameter sufficient to receive the end of a five-gallon water bottle provided with a plastic "tear-away" cap. The smaller end of the housing is closed except for a central opening. A transverse partition extends across the housing about half way between the two ends thereof, and is provided with a large central opening, and at least one additional smaller drainage opening. A piercing member is mounted on the central partition enclosing the central opening and extends upwardly toward the larger open end of the housing but not beyond its edge, to pierce a hole in the plastic cap when the assembly is firmly pushed down on the top of one of the five gallon water bottles. Outwardly extending protrusions or nipples from the piercing member hold the assembly to the plastic cap and facilitate drainage. Between the central partition and the smaller end of the assembly is a flow restrictor arrangement which provides adequate time to raise the bottle and put it onto a cooling stand in accordance with normal practice, but without the problem of unrestricted water flow with a consequent splashing which is often encountered when the 5-gallon bottles are mounted onto the cooling stands. The flow restrictor may be made of several discs which are provided with small openings to permit a convoluted flow path for the water. The axial length of the flow restrictor is less than its diameter.

    摘要: A retractable apparatus for holding garbage or refuse cans in an erect position includes a hollow casing implanted in the ground, a telescoping support column contained in the casing, and a head fixture attached to the support column for receiving and securing blade extensions attached to refuse cans. The casing is buried so that its upper end is substantially flush with ground level. The support column is retracted, when not in use, to a storage position contained within the hollow casing, by collapsing a number of telescopically interconnected elements which make up the support column. A recess is provided at the top of the inner surface of the hollow casing to receive and contain the head fixture in a position substantially flush with ground level. To secure refuse cans in an upright position, the support column is telescopically extended to an above-ground position. Blade extensions attached to the refuse cans are then inserted into receiving slots in the now-elevated head fixture. Locking pins are inserted through corresponding holes in the head fixture and blade extensions to secure the refuse cans to the support column. Internal friction brakes are provided at each telescopically interconnected element of the support column to hold the elements in position when extended above ground.
