A protective case for an electronic device includes a main housing and a lid. The main housing and lid are removably joined to define a water tight volume receiving an electronic device. The electronic device includes an earpiece having a speaker and microphone positioned thereon. The lid includes an earpiece port formed therein proximate the earpiece of the electronic device. A membrane assembly is attached to the lid by a compliant adhesive, the membrane assembly transmitting sound to the ear piece port. A noise isolating assembly attached to the lid. The noise isolating assembly is positioned about a periphery of the earpiece isolating the earpiece from an additional sound source.

Described are coating compositions comprising a polyester, the polyester comprising: at least one polyester which comprises a dicarboxylic acid component comprising terephthalic acid residues, and a glycol component comprising 30 to 40 mole % 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-1,3-cyclobutanediol residues and 60 to 70 mole % cyclohexanedimethanol residues, where the inherent viscosity of the polyester is from 0.10 to 0.70 dL/g, and where the coating composition is made from a film or sheet.

The invention relates to a container (1) of thermoplastic material with at least one support (4), which is arranged in the interior of the container, extends between opposing container walls (2) and is anchored at each end to the container walls with a positive engagement and/or a material bond, the support (4) comprising at least one supporting strut (5) and the supporting strut (5) substantially absorbing a supporting load on the container walls (2) induced by negative pressure in the container, and a tensile force that is induced by positive pressure being absorbed by at least one tension-resistant bracing element in the form of a tension-resistant band (8) which extends between the container walls (2).

A blank of sheet material for forming a container includes a bottom panel and two opposing bottom end panels. The blank also includes two opposing side panel assemblies. Each side panel assembly extends from a side edge of the bottom panel. Each side panel assembly includes an outer side panel extending from a side edge of the bottom panel. Two opposing side end panels each extending from an end edge of the outer side panel. A rollover panel extending from a side edge of the outer side panel, two opposing rollover miter panels each extending from an end edge of the rollover panel, and two opposing end rollover panels each extending from an end edge of one of the two opposing rollover miter panels.

An adjustable base container including a first surrounding wall forming a hollow internal space therein, the first surrounding wall having an inner surface including threads lengthwise and a male pattern design on a top portion of the inner surface, a second surrounding wall fitting within the first surrounding wall having one or more slit openings along its length extending completely through a bottom end in an axial direction, and having a female pattern design on a bottom side of a top end, the female pattern design corresponding to and fitting over the male pattern design of the first surrounding wall, and a platform sitting within the second surrounding wall having a top and bottom surface, a central space, and protrusions extending laterally from a rim edge, the protrusions engaging with the inner surface of the first surrounding wall between the threads. A method of using the adjustable base container.

The bilge plug saver of the present invention includes a large piece and a small piece made of a waterproof material, preferably rubber. The large and small piece fit together to form a waterproof capsule sized and shaped to accommodate a bilge plug within the capsule.

The disclosure relates to a vessel unit (2000) comprising a vessel (2200), a vessel connection part (2100) and a vessel closure (2300), the vessel connection part (2100) being connected to the vessel (2200) by the vessel closure (2300), the vessel connection part (2100) comprising a vessel connection part body (2130), a vessel pressure medium channel (2120) for pressure medium and a vessel pressure medium channel (2110) for pressure medium, a vessel mounting medium channel (2110) for the mounting medium, and a vessel pressure medium channel (2120) for a pressure medium, wherein the vessel unit (2000) is adapted to dispense mounting medium via the vessel mounting medium channel (2110) when pressure medium is supplied via the vessel pressure medium channel (2120). The disclosure further relates to an assembly comprising the vessel unit and an automatic coverslipper for automatically applying the coverslipping medium from the vessel unit and a coverslip to a slide.
