A waterproof swivel electrical cable connector comprises a first housing including a first electrical connector being rotatably connected to a second housing including a second electrical connector. A first elastomeric washer is intermediate the first housing and the second housing and providing a watertight seal between the first housing and the second housing as the first housing and first electrical connector are rotated relative to the second housing and second electrical connector.

Waterproof separable swivel connector

The disclosure relates to a cable grasping assembly and an associated waterproof lockable disengaging swiveling electrical cable connector housing structure. The assembly includes and end cap, a cable-holding sleeve and a housing. The end cap threads onto the housing in such a way that it causes fingers of the housing to compress the cable holding sleeve onto a cable which passes through the bores of all three. The structure includes a male housing partially inserted into the bore of a female housing. Each housing has a generally cylindrical body with a cable support structure located within its bore. The two housings are free to rotate about the cylindrical surfaces of each other when locked together via a locking sleeve. The structure also includes a sealing structure carried by one of the housings that establishes a watertight seal between the housings when the male is partially inserted into the female.

A canister for housing a tool such as a toilet brush or plunger and the canister has a pair of walls which pivot between an open and closed position via actuation of a platform which moves vertically within the canister upon receipt or removal of the tool therefrom. An actuator is provided to actuate the walls and a bias member may retain the walls in an open position when the tool is removed from the canister.

Spring biased canister for toilet brush or plunger

The present invention provides for a canister and an indexing apparatus that provides for automatic positioning of items in predetermined indexed positions when items are added or removed therefrom, without need of an external tab or positioning member to be adjusted by a user's hand. Merely by adding or removing the items to or from the canister, the items are automatically positioned. A pole having a track with positioning members receives a finger of a platform that rides in the track and automatically adjusts the platform's position when items are placed on or removed from the platform.
