A porous bag for brewing a brewable substance held therein, includes an enclosure bag including walls made from a porous material, with the brewable substance held in the enclosure bag; and an accessible opening in one wall of the enclosure bag for receiving a liquid supply tube therein for supplying liquid to the enclosure bag, the accessible opening preventing the brewable substance from escaping so that the porous bag can be used as a steeping bag in a liquid, while also permitting access to the opening to permit supply of the liquid therein from the liquid supply tube inserted therethrough.

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.

There is provided a device that requires the presence of a textile or fabric; and a flexible and conformable light source apparatus attached to the textile or fabric, where the light source apparatus requires: at least one light source; at least two conductive members having a first end and a second end, the first end is connected to the at least one light source and the second end is adapted to connect to a power source; and at least one transparent polymer layer that encapsulates the entirety of the at least one light source and at least part of the at least two conductive members.

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.

Disclosed herein is a visibility-enhancing device that requires the presence of a textile or fabric having an internal surface and an external surface; and a flexible and conformable visible light source apparatus attached to the textile or fabric, wherein the visible light source apparatus comprises: at least one visible light source that is positioned towards the internal surface of the textile or fabric and/or is positioned to provide light at an angle that is substantially perpendicular to the internal surface of the textile or fabric; at least two conductive members having a first end and a second end.

A convertible bag includes a fabric panel, a first pocket and a second pocket affixed to the fabric panel, and one or more zippers for the fabric panel. The first and second pockets configured to receive a respective ground stake. The fabric panel includes a first side edge, a second side edge, a first transverse edge, and a second transverse edge. In a zipped position, the zipper(s) couple the first side edge to the second side edge and couple a first portion of the second transverse edge to a second portion of the second transverse edge, such that the fabric panel forms a decoy bag. In the unzipped position, the fabric panel forms a hunting blind. A method of operating a convertible bag includes converting the convertible bag from a decoy bag into a hunting blind using zipper(s).

A packaging container for shipping goods is configured for conversion from a shelf configuration into a first packaging configuration by a first folding method, and from the shelf configuration into a second packaging configuration by a second folding method, wherein in the shelf configuration the packaging container is collapsible such that two opposite faces of the packaging container come in direct con-tact with each other, wherein in the first and second packaging configuration the packaging container is configured such that two opposite faces of the packaging container are attached to each other by a dimensionally stable sidepiece, and wherein a volume enclosed by the packaging container in the first packaging configuration is different from a volume enclosed by the packaging container in the second packaging configuration.

A package comprises a sterilized, reusable textile item comprising a textile material; a reusable bag comprising a sterilized textile material defining an interior cargo space in which the sterilized textile item is contained; a reusable envelope comprising a folded, sheet of sterilized textile material by which the bag containing the sterilized textile item is entirely enveloped; and a reusable tie comprising an elongate length of a sterilized textile material extending around and securing the envelope onto the bag. A method comprises inserting the textile item into the bag; folding the sheet about the bag; and securing the folded sheet enveloping the bag using the tie. All four components are reusable of the packaging including the textile item. The package preferably constitutes mono material packaging.

A web material made of a woven fabric is divided into web sections by tear lines. The tear lines weaken the web material without causing a complete separation of the web sections from the web material. The web sections are separable from the web material by being torn off along the tear lines. Cuts are formed in the woven fabric along transverse sections of each tear line, the transverse sections running essentially transversely to the longitudinal extension of the web material, which cuts are spaced apart from each other and are oriented in the longitudinal direction of the web material or transversely to the transverse section of the tear line, with the cuts being connected to only one transverse section of the tear line.

A high strength environmental control device comprising a mesh container having at least one interior and one exterior surface is provided. The interior of the mesh container can comprise a filler material. The mesh container can comprise a plurality of yarns, including viscose fibers, interlaced together.
