A device for selectively retaining a package opening in a gaping configuration and a package including the device applied to a package body. The device includes a circumferential strip with side seams formed as vertical or longitudinal hinges. One or more tabs extend in a first axial direction from an upper edge of the circumferential strip at the side seams. Each tab is coupled to the circumferential strip with a horizontal or transverse hinge. The tabs are pivotable about the horizontal or transverse hinges in opposite directions away from the opening axis to respective folded-out positions, which inhibits the device from folding at the side seams and retains a gaping open configuration of the device and package. The vertical hinges include thru cuts or line of perforations that go through the entire material thickness of the circumferential strip and the one or more tabs and extend for a majority of the full axial length of the device. The horizontal hinges may be in the form of a living hinge or alternatively thru cuts or a line of perforations.

The present disclosure relates to a carrier apparatus primarily for carrying containers having food products therein; but secondarily for carrying containers having any type of products contained therein. Specifically, the carrier apparatus of the present invention allows a user to transport various amounts and types of containers securely, minimizing disturbance to products, such as food products, contained therein. More specifically, the carrier apparatus of the present invention comprises a first configuration for carrying a first amount of containers and a second configuration for carrying a second amount of containers.

A contact lens package kit is described that includes a contact lens packages, wherein each contact lens package includes a base member having a cavity and a sealing member coupled to the base member. An unworn contact lens is provided in a packaging solution within the sealed cavity. The base member is a thermoplastic material (or other recyclable material) and includes a substantially planar surface surrounding the cavity to provide a sealing surface for the sealing member. The kit also includes at least one fastener configured to retain a plurality of base members from each of the contact lens packages after the contact lens is removed from the cavity. A recyclable thermoplastic contact lens assembly is also described, that includes empty contact lens packages attached to a fastener. A method to recycle used contact lens packages, such as curbside recycling, is further described that uses the fastener, and the fastener itself is also described.

The present invention relates to a cupcake holder for secure transport. In one embodiment, the cupcake holder comprises a vase, a mount for mounting a plurality of cupcakes, attached to the vase, a plurality of support pins attached to the mount, projections of pairs of the support pins of configured to support a cupcake; and at least one skewer corresponding to each of the plurality of cupcakes, inserted through each of the cupcake into the mount.

Provided are a new concept vegetable binding packing material having an air column, suitable for protecting vegetables, a new concept vegetable binding packing device for binding vegetables using the same, and a packaging method therefor. A vegetable binding packing material including an air column includes: at least one air column disposed in a row to surround a certain amount of vegetables in a direction crossing a lengthwise direction of the vegetables; and a bonding portion configured to bond both ends from the at least one air column to the outside of the vegetables. A vegetable binding packing device according to the present disclosure includes: a packing material supply unit configured to feed a packing material; a clamp injection module including a clamping unit configured to clamp a front portion of the packing material and an injection unit configured to inject air into an air column pattern; a vegetable supply unit configured to supply vegetables; and a sealing module configured to seal a portion of the air column pattern across the air column pattern injected with air.

Presenting an auxiliary storage apparatus and aircraft container that enables existing non-regulated temperature containers to be equipped with specific features such as cooling, heating, and humidifying features.

The storage container with specific features is inserted into a non-regulated temperature container for aircraft use and is affixed to the interior of the aforementioned non-regulated temperature container by the auxiliary storage apparatus, which is comprised of the wire (14) that passes over the storage container, the hooks (10, 10) and pulleys (12, 12) that affix to the existing support brackets (20, 20) that are located on the four corners of the floor surface, and the turnbuckle (16). One end of the wire (14) hooks onto the hook (10). The wire (14) then passes over the storage container and winds around the pulleys (12, 12). The other end of the wire (14) attaches to the other hook (10 using the turnbuckle (16). As the operator operates the turnbuckle, the wire (14) tightens against the storage container, and the storage container is affixed to the interior of the non-regulated temperature container.

An empty plastic bottle recycling apparatus and advertising platform (BRAAP) that is used to captively hold at least one, and preferably multiple, plastic beverage bottles and includes advertising or promotional indicia printed thereon. The BRAAP has a structure which is a strip, or an strip. The panel and strip can be resilient and disposable, and each have at least one, and typically multiple, openings that are each dimensioned to allow a bottle's neck to be inserted and maintained within, or removed from, the opening. When a bottle is inserted into an opening, the BRAAP with the retained bottle, can be stored or transported. When a bottle is pulled from an opening, the bottle neck is released, thereby allowing the bottle to be removed from the BRAAP. The advertising or promotional indicia includes a company name, a coupon, a sport team name, event information, commercial offers, entertainment information, or social media information.
