A reusable travel tube that has a flexible tube portion, a collar and a cap that can be threaded onto the cap. The collar is fitted over a neck of the tube portion and forms a gasket-like seal between the neck of the tube portion and the collar. The cap has a rotatable locking bail that can prevent a flip-top cap from accidentally being opened. When the locking bail is not positioned to prevent the cap from being accidentally opened, it can be retracted into a nested position such that the handle of the bail is substantially flush with the outer side surface of the collar.

A travel case for a bar of soap is provided. In various embodiments, the travel case permits accelerated drying of the bar of soap and prolongs the life of the soap. The travel case is designed to maintain the bar of soap in a fixed horizontal and vertical position during transport. The travel case includes a lid and a base with a walled receiving portion. The receiving portion is configured to receive a bar of soap that is attached to a soap support and hold the soap support such that the bar of soap is prevented from contacting the surface of the soap case. A method of reversibly securing a bar of soap within a soap case while maintaining the soap in a fixed horizontal and vertical position is also provided herein.

The present disclosure concerns a coupling mechanism for detachably attaching two or more utility modules to one another, utility assembles, mobile carriers and other attachable modules and articles.

A storage container can include at least one movement sensor in or on a frame of the storage container and at least one movement sensor in or on a door of the storage container. A processor can compare outputs of the movement sensors to determine whether the door is open.

A mating part in a locking path of a stop part so that the locking part is not automatically lockable and a first connection part is in a state of remaining unlocked from a second connection part.

A drinking vessel including a beverage container defining a drinking opening therethrough and a closure attachable to the beverage container to close the drinking opening. A first set of magnet units is coupled to the beverage container, and a second set of magnet units is coupled to the closure. When the closure is in a closed position, magnetic attraction between at least one magnet unit of the first set of magnet units and at least one magnet unit of the second set of magnet units holds the closure in place relative to the beverage container, thereby closing the drinking opening. When the closure is rotated away from the closed position, magnetic repulsion between at least one magnet unit of the first set of magnet units and at least one magnet unit of the second set of magnet units pushes the closure away from the beverage container.

A foldable container includes a base, a pair of first walls, a pair of second walls, and a lid. The first and second walls may hingedly rotate with respect to the base between an upright and a collapsed position. The lid may attach to the second walls while the second walls are upright. The lid includes latch assemblies, with the latch assemblies including a housing and a button assembly moveable within the housing. The button assembly includes a button body, a latching member, and a spring. The latching member is connected to the button body and may engage with the second wall to attach the lid to the second wall. The spring is connected to the button body and may engage with the housing. Compression of the button body against the spring effects disengagement of the latching member from the second wall to remove the lid from the second wall.

A mobile cooling box has a box main body and at least one lid for providing access to the inside of the mobile cooling box. At one side edge the lid is hinged to the box main body so that the lid is pivotable from a closed position to an open position. The mobile cooling box further has a latch handle module for manually locking and unlocking the lid. The latch handle module is integrated in the lid and located at another side edge of the lid. The latch handle module comprises an actuating element that is manually operable by the user, a locking element that is engageable with a corresponding counterpart located at the box main body in order to lock the lid from being opened and a casing, and the latch handle module provides a mechanism for locking and unlocking the lid. According to the mechanism for locking and unlocking the lid the actuating element and the locking element are mechanically connected to each other and, by operating the actuating element by the user, the locking element disengages with the corresponding counterpart located at the box main body and allows opening the lid.

A locking packaging container, locking mechanism and method includes an insert including at least one locking tab of dual interlocking slotted end panels and a void of material at end corners of at least one of the dual interlocking slotted end panels of the insert and an outer sleeve including at least one locking aperture slot corresponding to the at least one locking tab when in a locked position.

A Locking Portable Lunch Box with Inner Removable Food Container comprising a locking outer compartment structured and arranged to provide consumers with a means of keeping their food items from being eaten by others when using a shared refrigerator.
