Adjustable measuring cups include a housing having a peripheral wall having an open upper end, an outer surface, an inner surface, and a bottom surface. The adjustable measuring cups also include a platform slidably movable within the housing, and an adjustment wheel rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the housing. The platform has an upper surface and a lower surface. A plurality of connecting rods can be connected to the adjustment wheel, and can also be connected to the lower surface of the platform. The measuring volume of an adjustable measuring cup can be defined by the open upper end, the inner surface of the housing and the upper surface of the platform. The platform slidably moves when the adjustment wheel is rotated, thereby adjusting the measuring volume of the measuring cup.

A roll holder and dispenser having a base, a roll-receiving tube, and a handle securable in an end of the tube. The handle has two caps or buttons. Pressing one of the buttons allows the handle to be removed from the tube by causing a plunger in the handle to rotate so that prongs securing the handle to the tube are pressed into recesses in the plunger when the handle is pulled out of the tube. Pressing the other button moves arms into contact with the roll of paper products to restrain the movement or rotation of the roll. The buttons are spring biased so they return to their original positions when they are released. The base of the roll holder houses a suction device that permits the roll holder to be adhered to a countertop or other surface by moving a handle in a slot in the base.

A suction device that may be configured and conformed to a multitude of different types of kitchenware, small appliances, and other devices. The suction device comprises a base, a handle, a pivot, a plate, and a suction pad. The suction pad is connected to the plate. Two bridge-like structures with sloped undersides extend from the plate. The handle extends from the underside of one of the bridge-like structures, through the pivot, to the underside of the second bridge-like structure, and out through an elongated slot in the base. The handle is in sliding contact with the sloped undersides of the bridge-like structures. As the handle is moved in the elongated slot, the sliding contact of the handle with the undersides of the bridge-like structures pulls the plate, as well as a central portion of the suction pad, away from the surface to which the suction pad is mated, creating a partial vacuum between the central portion of the suction pad and the mating surface and, thus, causing the outer portion of the suction pad to adhere to the surface. Movement of the handle in the opposite direction in the elongated slot causes the plate to move toward the mating surface and, thus, relaxes the suction pad so that the suction pad is no longer adheres to the surface. The base can be configured and constructed in numerous ways and, thus, can be used with a great variety of kitchenware and other items. The base may also be constructed to be removably attached to various kitchenware items and implements.

A mixing bowl assembly having a mixing bowl and a base to receive the mixing bowl. The base contains two suction devices. One of the suction devices secures the mixing bowl to the base. The other suction device secures the base to a counter or work surface. The mixing bowl may be secured to the base at various selected angles to facilitate the mixing of different types of ingredients. Each suction device is secured to its respective mating surface by moving a handle to activate the suction device. Each suction device is deactivated by moving the handle in the opposite direction to release the suction device from the surface to which it was adhered or mated.
