Disclosed is a side pack that may be on a utility vehicle. In example embodiments, a top panel of the side pack includes channels that are used to connect an option, for example, mechanical equipment, to the side pack. Disclosed also is a method of moving the side pack.

The present invention provides an apparatus, method and system for utilizing commercial cargo containers. The present invention utilizes containers made autonomous by coupling a container with a detachable propulsion system, having a motor and navigation and steering controls, permitting the rapid, controlled, efficient and safe delivery of cargo containers individually by water. Ballast units, deployment systems and control via remote units are also disclosed. The containers, utilizing their inherent buoyancy, can move autonomously according to a preplanned or remote controlled route to a specific location.

The present application describes a large scale process for the in vitro production of an olive cell culture.

The application further describes a composition in a form of a powder comprising olive fruit/leaf cells grown in vitro and a method of treating metabolic syndrome disorders, such as, high cholesterol level, comprising administering an effective amount of the composition. The cell line callus culture of olive cells manufactured according to the process of the invention includes high level of hydroxytyrosoll, tyrosol, oleoropein and verbascoside.

A roll-off tub style container which is leak-proof to prevent liquids in the container from draining onto the ground or roadways. In one embodiment of the invention, the floor of the container has an upwardly and rearwardly extending inclined portion at the rearward end thereof to prevent liquid in the container from coming into contact with the tail gate of the container. In another embodiment of the invention, the rearward end of the container is elevated during transport to prevent liquid in the container from coming into contact with the tail gate. In yet another embodiment of the container, the floor of the container is inclined upwardly and rearwardly from the forward end thereof to the rearward end thereof. A liquid collection tank may be positioned beneath the floor of the container which has an inlet in fluid communication with the interior of the container and a discharge outlet provided thereon to permit liquid in the tank to be selectively drained therefrom.

A pressurized closure assembly is provided which has a connector assembly to allow improved application of torque in limited space conditions to rotate a head away from the hub of the closure assembly.

Disclosed herein is a movable platform and an extension assembly which enables the width or length of the movable platform to be extended. The extension assembly comprises a plurality of clips which releasably engage openings on the movable platform. A top surface of the extension assembly is flush with a top surface of the movable platform.

A closure assembly includes a cap having a top panel joined to a circumferential skirt by a plurality of bridges and an opening in the top panel. A plurality of complementary projections are provided on the inner surface of the skirt. An intermediate member has a top portion. An annular sealing surface joins and rises from the top portion. A neck is formed on the top portion located to protrude through the opening. A closure base with a complementary annular sealing surface is adapted to telescopically receive the annular sealing surface. A plurality of projections extend from the closure base. A sealing member is applicable between the annular sealing surface and complementary annular sealing surface to provide a seal between the intermediate member and the closure base.

A tank for transporting, storing, and dispensing viscous materials is disclosed having a cylindrical body, and spherical ends. The tank further comprises an ellipsoidal follower device used to force the viscous material through the tank, the follower device having an upper half, and lower half, and a centerline. A plurality of stabilizing fins are rigidly connected to the ellipsoidal follower device at the centerline and extending axially along the tank's inner wall, the stabilizing fins disposed between a periphery of the ellipsoidal follower device and an inner wall of the cylindrical body. The fins serve as an anti-tipping device to maintain the follower in the proper orientation even upon rested in a horizontal position.
