Abstract:
A cabinet storage system includes a base and a pair of slides. The base includes a first planar surface and a second planar surface. The first and second planar surfaces are opposing surfaces of the base and define a perimeter of the base. The pair of slides are coupled with the first planar surface. The system also includes fences positioned away from the second planar surface around the perimeter of the base, and structural columns mechanically coupled with the base. The structural columns are positioned to abut the second planar surface and longitudinally extending away from the second planar surface to rigidly maintain the fences around the perimeter of the base.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a system for storing various bakeware items in an organized and efficient manner. The bakeware caddy may include a short divider orthogonal to a left wall, a right wall, and a bottom surface; and a long divider orthogonal to the short divider and the bottom surface. Accordingly, the caddy may comprise one or more pockets, for example a rear pocket, a left pocket, and a right pocket, formed by disposition of the one or more walls and dividers. A strap may be disposed on the outer circumference of the caddy, the strap comprising one or more ends magnetically engaged. Thus, reversible magnet adherence of the strap ends may enable withdrawal and placement of bakeware items within the caddy. The caddy and the components thereof may be composed of various materials to enable rigidity and support and may be further covered in fabric to prevent damage to the bakeware items.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to stabilization of RNA, in particular mRNA, and an increase in mRNA translation. The present invention particularly relates to a modification of RNA, in particular in vitro-transcribed RNA, resulting in increased transcript stability and/or translation efficiency. According to the invention, it was demonstrated that certain sequences in the 3′-untranslated region (UTR) of an RNA molecule improve stability and translation efficiency.

A kitchen pullout for storage of knives, cutting boards, and miscellaneous utensils and appliances is provided. A magnetic bar, having a specialized magnetic array is provided for storage of metallic knives. A specialized rubber casting, having a plurality of serpentine slots for holding ceramic knives is provided. Conveniently placed canisters and slots are provided for closed storage of kitchen utensils. A bottom shelf is provided with various heights for storage of appliances. An adjustable base frame, and an adjustable top rail is provided to secure and accommodate position the mechanism in the cabinet carcass.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A waste disposal apparatus with a retractable drop chute for delivering waste to a waste container movably connected beneath a surface covering the entire waste container.
Abstract:
A structure for a vertical unitized compartmentalized sorting/holding container compatible with plastic bags for use where sundry recyclable materials are generated and discarded. There is provided a retaining apparatus in which the action of discarding, at the same time, sorts and holds various materials for recycling purposes in several sloping rhomboid compartments, one over the other, providing fifty per cent greater holding volume than level rectangular compartments of the same floor space. Further, dull hooks advantageously located hold plastic bags open for filling from the front instead of the top. Pull-down doors, render easy loading, and serve to isolate odors and obscure trash from view. Flat newspaper storage is provided in the bottom. The construction of the container provides for free-standing use in interior or exterior environments and flush in-wall installation.
Abstract:
A container (10) having a cover (42) mounted on a container body (32) that in turn is mounted to the interior surface (30) of a cabinet door (28) that uses an elastic, flexible filament (56) to automatically open and close the container cover (42) as the cabinet door (28) is opened and closed. The elastic, flexible filament (56) may be mounted to not only urge the cover (42) to move to an open position as the cabinet door (28) is opened, but also urge the cover (42) to move to a closed position when the door (28) is closed and hold the cover (42) in the closed position. With the device of the present invention, existing door-mounted containers can be quickly and easily installed or converted to use the present invention without requiring alteration of the cabinet structure. Furthermore, with the present invention, manual opening and closing of the container cover (42) is eliminated and the container cover (42) is held in the closed position.
Abstract:
A sliding receptacle is provided that is comprised of a receptacle container for supporting an opened bag, and a platform extension and looped band for retaining one or more folded bags. The sliding receptacle is also provided with a pair of laterally spaced and longitudinally extending rails secured to its underside, and a pair of tracks that engage the rails in sliding engagement. The tracks are mounted in a laterally spaced, longitudinally extending disposition on a flat horizontal base surface and the receptacle is mounted for sliding fore and aft movement on the tracks. The receptacle rails are provided with fore and aft stop abutments that limit the extent to which the receptacle may slide over the tracks, and the receptacle rails are provided with slots dimensioned to enable the rails and the receptacle to be disengaged from the tracks by elevating and leveling the rails and receptacle relative to the tracks, and sliding the rails and receptacle forward over the tracks.
Abstract:
A rail is tiltably mounted on a crank arm at one end of the rail or the rail is hung at both ends on pivotal link hangers. In the case of the crank arm, the rail extends from the attached end over center to the opposite side of the crank arm so that when the crank rises or lowers with the attached end of the rail, the other cantilevered end of the rail lowers or rises in the opposite direction to tilt the rail. In the case of the pivotal link hangers, the distance between the pivot points at the hangers is greater than the distance between their connection to the rail so that when one link extends downwardly to lower that end of the rail, the other link extends outwardly to raise the other end of the rail to cause the rail to tilt. A trolley rolls on the rail and supports a container, such as a wastebasket. The apparatus may be mounted on a desk and a wastebasket may be carried by the trolley. By tilting the rail the trolley rolls to the lower end of the rail and carries the wastebasket with it. Operating linkage, stops, etc. are provided to bi-directionally activate the tilt and to prevent overtilt.
