Patent ID: 7527018

Claim:
An apparatus comprising: a base comprising at least one side that defines an interior space, the at least one side forming a periphery that defines an aperture above the interior space; a bowl element having a rim, the bowl element being shaped to fit into the interior space of the base such that the rim abuts the periphery; and a lever mechanism comprising: a lever having a proximal end directly abutting the bowl element when the bowl element is in the interior space of the base, and a distal end opposite the proximal end and extending outside the at least one side of the base; a fulcrum having an aperture for receiving the lever therethrough, the fulcrum further having a pair of ears on opposite sides of the aperture; at least one pin extends through each of the pair of ears into the lever between the proximal and distal ends for pivotally mounting the lever on the fulcrum; and attachment element secured directly to the at least one side of the base; the fulcrum extends directly from the attachment element; whereby depressing the distal end of the lever raises the proximal end and ejects the bowl element from the interior space of the base.
