A temperature probe insert includes a coupling portion, a first arm extending from the coupling portion, and a second arm extending from the coupling portion. The first arm and the second arm extend from different sides of the coupling portion. The coupling portion includes an aperture that extends through the coupling portion. The first arm and the second arm are configured to contact a storage bag shell and prevent movement of the coupling portion in the opening in the storage bag shell. The aperture is configured to direct a temperature probe into a storage bag disposed in the internal volume of the storage bag shell. A storage bag temperature monitoring assembly includes a temperature probe insert and a storage bag shell. A kit includes a temperature probe insert and a temperature probe.

A storage vessel assembly for storing chemical includes a storage vessel, a frame for housing the storage vessel, an agitation device disposed in the storage vessel, a temperature control system coupled to the storage vessel, and a controller configured to operate the agitation device and the temperature control system.

To provide a pallet that makes it possible to prevent load shifting in a case where the pallet inclines. A pallet includes: an upper plate on which a load is to be placed; a lower frame disposed so as to face the upper plate; at least three force sensors disposed on a lower surface of the upper plate or an upper surface of the lower frame; at least three raising and lowering mechanisms that are disposed between the upper plate and the lower frame via the at least three force sensors and that are able to raise and lower the upper plate with respect to the lower frame; and a controller configured to perform control to drive the at least three raising and lowering mechanisms on the basis of output signals from the at least three force sensors.

A display container for displaying an aromatic botanical specimen includes: (a) a container body for enclosing the botanical specimen and scented air having a scent of the botanical specimen; (b) at least one scent discharge port in the container body; and (c) an air pump coupled to the container body and operable to discharge the scented air from within the container body to the environment through the scent discharge port.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for a multisensory examination jar for botanical specimens. Embodiments of the disclosed jar may have a body portion with an integrated LED array for illuminating the contents of the jar. The jar may have a removable lid with an integrated magnifying lens, and an opening or port to enable a user to smell the contents of the jar. The opening may have a removable plug to establish a substantially air tight seal on the lid of the jar, to trap odors within the jar. The removable plug can be selectively removed to enable the user to smell the contents of the jar. The jar may have an electronics module and power source operable for wireless charging. The jar may also be configured to interface with a charging dock or base for wireless charging of integrated batteries.

A method of tracking liquid consumption for a bottle assembly may include sensing a dispensing operation of an external liquid dispenser. The method may further include determining an identity of the external liquid dispenser based on sensing the dispensing operation of the external liquid dispenser. The method may also include adjusting the flow assembly in response to determining the identity of the external liquid dispenser. The flow assembly may define a filter position and a bypass position. The method may also include measuring liquid data of the liquid reservoir following adjusting the flow assembly.
