A storage system has retractable cells used for with storing and transporting articles in totes. A plurality of spaced apart shelves extends transversely between left and right flexible vertical panels. Left and right hangers extend upward from a distal end attached to a shelf to a proximal end at a structural support. A plurality of guide members are attached to the vertical panels, juxtaposed with the shelves. Each guide member slidingly engages a hanger. Means is provided for pulling the left and right hangers upward to raise the shelves upward. The hangers can be secured either to the support or to a shelf above. The left and right panels will fold inwardly between the shelves. The space beneath the shelves will increase to receive an article larger than a tote.

Each mounting clamp of a lower most pair of mounting clamps for mounting a glass panel, includes a horizontal ledge for receiving the weight of the glass panel during assembly. After positioning of the glass panel on the horizontal ledges, the mounting clamps are tightened to clamp the glass panel in place.

A membrane gas dryer includes an upstream fitting assembly, a downstream fitting assembly, a purge tube, and a sample element. The upstream fitting assembly and the downstream fitting assembly include fitting bodies and barrier sleeves. The fitting bodies and the barrier sleeves form purge plenums that are in fluid communication with the purge tube. Sealing interfaces on the fitting bodies maintain fluid-tight seals around the purge plenums as the barrier sleeves rotate about fitting bodies. The sample element includes a water-permeable membrane and passes inside the purge tube such that moisture in a sample gas flowing in a downstream direction through the sample element between the fitting body to the downstream fitting body passes moisture through the water-permeable membrane and into a purge gas flowing in the purge tube in one of an upstream direction or a downstream direction between the purge plenums.

Membrane gas dryers incorporating rotatable fittings

In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, a probe assembly comprising a flange assembly, a probe platform, a platform extension, an extension enclosure, and a fluid coupling assembly is provided. The fluid coupling assembly comprises a removable portion and a retained portion. An engaging interface of the retained portion cooperates with an engaging interface of the removable portion such that, with engagement of the removable and retained portions, respective fluid passages of the removable and retained portions form one or more integrated fluid channels configured to permit passage of fluid through the fluid coupling assembly. The probe assembly is configured such that the probe platform, the platform extension, and the removable portion of the fluid coupling assembly are interconnected and are configured to be withdrawn simultaneously from the probe assembly independent of the retained portion of the fluid coupling assembly.

Probe assembly

The faucet spout attachment includes a handle that is moved by a user during use from a rest position into a rear position or forward position from which the handle is spring-biased back to the rest position when released. A cam is actuated by the handle that allows the handle to be moved into a locked position for hands-free operation. The handle is mounted on the lower housing piece of a two-piece housing that is rotatable relative to the upper housing piece to allow for alignment of the handle for proper use.

The adjustable foot support has an internally threaded plastic housing and an externally threaded plastic tubular toe which is threaded into the housing. The two plastic components serve to transfer the weight of the table or cabinet to a support surface. A sleeve of a stainless steel and a collar of stainless steel or similar material are placed about the tubular toe and the plastic housing to present exposed surfaces.

Foot support

The strainer for the drain assembly is formed of a cup-shaped body having an outer peripheral wall with slots for draining water, an upraised central portion having an inner peripheral wall with slots for draining water and a floor extending between the two walls with openings for draining water. A bail is pivotally secured to the upright central portion for manipulating the strainer. This strainer also has a plurality of tabs which extend outwardly of the body to interfit with a retainer within a sink for securement purposes.

Drain assembly

The drain assembly is constructed with a segmented ball valve of stainless steel or plastic which is rotatable between an open position and a closed position by a shaft extending from the drain body. An annular valve seat is biased against the valve body by a compression device and an annual retainer which is threaded into the valve body from above. A strainer may also be provided to catch large particles which might otherwise not be desirable for passage through the drain assembly. The valve body provides a relatively large opening for the discharge of fluids into a drain pipe.
