Storage delivery box
A storage delivery box is provided. The storage delivery box includes a housing having a base, sidewalls, a lid, and an interior volume. The lid is hingedly attached to the housing for selectively providing access to the interior volume. The lid includes a locking mechanism configured to automatically secure the lid when in a closed position. A door lock disposed on the lid includes an input for unlocking the lid when in the closed position. An alarm system disposed on the housing is configured to detect intruders, activate a home alarm system and a recording device, and wirelessly communicate any attempted intrusions to an electronic device. An auxiliary net removably attachable to the interior volume is configured to receive items that are too large to fit within the interior volume and secure them exteriorly to the storage box.
Tamper-evident mesh material and methods of manufacture therefor
The present invention is directed to tamper-evident mesh material, methods of manufacture therefor, and tamper-evident bags manufactured therefrom. The tamper-evident mesh material of the present invention may be used, for example, in the manufacture of a variety of tamper-evident security bags for use in applications where it is desirable to detect any traces or evidence of tampering with or of unauthorized access to the contents of the bag.
SLURRY ICE CONTAINMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD
There is provided a slurry ice containment system, and the method of providing same. This involves impeding separation of liquid and ice components of a slurry ice mixture, and more particularly relates to impeding the separation of liquid and frozen components of a slurry food product mixture, such as, for example, a slurry juice. This can be done by providing catches within a container. These catches may be of various size, shape, structure, and position. These catches hold ice crystal volume in various places within the container to assist in preventing the total volume of ice crystal to rise to the top of a container.
Environmental Amelioration with Improved EC Fiber Bags and Processes Particularly Useful for Mitigation of Erosion in Challenged Areas
Improved EC Types of fiber bags drives minimum negative environment impact with installation, up to at least tertiary level adverse water or rain events do not substantially degrade the mechanical integrity or erosion mitigating impact of structures or landscapes ameliorated on a long term basis or mitigated from hazard to acceptable levels and compliance with regulatory and cost structures for said system are maintained more efficiently than known systems, as maintained for examples in special purpose processing or computing media.
COLLECTION BAG FOR RECEIVING A COLLECTED MATERIAL
A collection bag is for receiving a collected material and an emptying opening configured in a specific shape for the collection bag which has a receiving space defined by a woven cloth. The receiving space is defined by outer edges of the collection bag. The woven cloth is at least partially air-permeable. The receiving space has an inlet opening for a blower air flow supplying the material and a closable emptying opening for removing the material. The receiving space opens into a tubular outlet section, the open end thereof forming the emptying opening. In a closed position of the outlet section, the receiving space or the emptying opening is closed. In an open position, the receiving space is connected to the surroundings via the emptying opening. In its open position, the outlet section protrudes from the bag and, in its closed position, the outlet section is located inside the bag.
BULK BAG HAVING A MULTI-SIDED SHAPED BOTTOM
A fabric bulk bag and a method for constructing the same, the bag including a continuous sidewall, a top portion, and a bottom, all defining a bulk storage space therein; the bottom further comprising eight sides which define an octagonal shape having an enlarged footprint so that the bag wall is sewn to the bottom in less time than a round shaped bag, yet when filled stands more upright with less tendency to lean than the current square shaped bags thereby providing a safer more dependable stacking bulk bag. In the method of producing the fabric bulk bag, the bag is constructed in less time than the prior art round bottom bags, uses less wall fabric than prior art square bottomed bags and when constructed and filled, supports itself more stable on a floor or pallet because it provides substantially more base for the product to rest on. In other embodiments, the bag would be multi-sided with greater than four sides.
SPOUT POUCH
Provided is a spout pouch that suppresses breakage of a pouch main body starting from the vicinity of a flange outer peripheral edge. In a spout pouch, a spout attachment film includes a flange facing region where a flange of a spout faces the spout attachment film. A pouch main body includes a shape control sealing portion formed by fusing a portion of the spout attachment film positioned inward of a connection seal in a transverse direction and a side film. The shape control sealing portion includes a portion positioned in a region between the flange facing region and the connection seal in the transverse direction.
TOTABLE CONTAINER WITH ENHANCED CAPACITY LID
A container includes a body having an interior and a lid hingedly coupled to and circumscribing a top opening of the body. When the lid is in its open configuration, the capacity of its interior is enhanced by the area above the top opening circumscribed by the lid. The lid includes front, rear, left and right panels. Handles are coupled to the front and rear panels of the lid. The left and right panels of the lid both include a plurality of triangular articulating regions. Drawing the handles of the lid together causes the triangular articulating regions to transition from a coplanar configuration to a folded configuration, draws the front and rear panels of the lid together, and causes the lid to transition from the open to a closed configuration. The relative dimensions of the container may in the form of a hamper, basket, bin or tote.
SHAPE SHIFTING HAMPER AND BAG
A container takes on the form of a laundry hamper or basket while static or stationary. Upon bringing front and back panels of the container into closer proximity for transport, such as by drawing together their respective handles, or drawing one of the handles towards the other, the container changes configuration, or shape, to that of a tote bag. Upon releasing at least one of the front and back panels of the container from being drawn towards the other, such as by releasing at least one of their respective handles, the container automatically reverts back to the form of a laundry hamper or basket. The use of substantially rigid front and back panels, coupled with side panels that have resilient upper regions, permit the side panels to take on a spout-like configuration when the container is in its tote bag configuration, and to return to a planar configuration when the container is in its laundry hamper or basket configuration.
