Methods for making tip bonded formed laminates are made from multiple layers of formed substrates made from films which are bonded together at the tips of their formed protrusions. Tip bonded laminates can be designed with greater resistance to bending, improved resilience to compression, and can be patterned for directionally oriented responses to tensile loads. Also, tip bonded formed laminates made from multiple layers of formed substrates can use their layered structure to provide better aesthetics as well as better physical properties such as improved puncture resistance. Tip bonded formed laminates can be configured with thicker portions and designed patterns, which are appealing to consumers. A tip bonded formed laminate can be made from two or more formed substrates and can be used instead of a single, thick, unformed, substrate, so the laminate can use about the same amount of material, while still providing surprising functional benefits.

A recycling bin for classification and compression of renewable resources, comprising a recycling bin housing, and a recycling bin inner container and a pressurizing device provided inside the recycling bin housing, wherein a weighing device is further provided between a bottom of the recycling bin inner container and the recycling bin housing; the pressurizing device comprises a compression beam provided in an upper part of an inner cavity of the recycling bin inner container, and a driving part for driving the compression beam to move; an upper end of the driving part is connected to the compression beam, and a lower end is connected to the bottom of the recycling bin inner container.

A disposable container is disclosed that includes a lid, a frontward facing sidewall portion, a rearward facing sidewall portion that is opposite the frontward facing sidewall portion, a first foldable sidewall portion, a second foldable sidewall portion that is opposite the first foldable sidewall portion, a pedal, wherein the pedal is rotatably coupled to the frontward facing portion, a hinge mechanism, wherein the hinge mechanism is rotatably coupled to the lid and the rearward facing sidewall portion, and two or more lines that each have a first line end and a second line end, wherein the first line end of each of the two or more lines is coupled to the pedal and the second line end of each of the two or more lines is coupled to the hinge mechanism.

The lawn bag generally comprises a bag bottom, bag sides, and left-side and right-side flaps, each foldingly connected to one of the bag sides. The left-side and right-side flaps are each moveable from stowed positions to extended positions. The flaps in the stowed position may be positioned flat against the respective sides to which they are attached. The left-side flap and the right-side flap, when in the extended position, extends to the left and right of the bag, respectively, and are generally coplanar with a bag front side.

A thermoplastic film which exhibits elastic-like behavior along at least one axis when stretched or elongated and then released. The thermoplastic film comprises a plurality of raised rib-like elements extending in a direction perpendicular to a main surface of the thermoplastic film. The thermoplastic film further includes a plurality of web areas positioned about the plurality of raised rib-like elements. The plurality of raised rib-like elements and plurality of web areas are arranged in a complex pattern. The complex pattern provides visual and tactile cues as the films are stretched or elongated. The complex pattern can cause the thermoplastic film to have a complex stretch profile.

A self-contained and portable/mobile waste liquid collection and storage unit is disclosed. An example embodiment includes: a self-contained and portable/mobile waste liquid collection and storage unit comprising: a waste liquid reservoir within the unit; an integrated sink with a drain; a P-trap coupled to the drain to transfer waste liquid from the sink to the waste liquid reservoir; wheels for mobility attached to a bottom of the unit; and a handle to facilitate portability of the unit.

A wastebasket liner is configured to attach to an inner surface of a wastebasket so that the liner does not show conspicuously above a top rim of the wastebasket. The liner has an adhesive layer disposed on its outer surface at or adjacent a top edge of the liner so that the liner can be adhered in place within the wastebasket. One or more pull members are provided to assist in removing the liner from the wastebasket. Such pull member can be bonded to the liner, and has a free portion that is configured to be grasped by a user so that the user can easily pull on the liner to detach the adhesive from the wastebasket and remove the liner from the wastebasket.

A portable waste disposal bag includes a generally round bottom section, and a generally cylindrical side section that encircles the bottom section and is attached by stitching to the bottom section. The bag also includes at least two lifting straps which are each attached by stitching to the side section. The bottom section, side section and the two lifting straps are each made from a single piece of flexible material such as woven polypropylene. The bottom section and side section form a primary waste holding section configured to hold waste products and which forms means for evenly distributing the weight of an aggregate amount of the waste products held in the primary waste holding section. The means for evenly distributing the weight is configured to be deformable into an overall generally round shape during lifting of the waste disposal bag off of a surface.

A system including a liner implement that is configured to provide a lining for at least a receptacle, the liner implement includes an upper edge component having an outer surface portion and an inner surface portion. A retention strip implement engages the upper edge component, to tighten the upper edge component around an upper opening of the receptacle. A first end segment of the retention strip implement is configured to engage the outer surface portion of the liner implement. A second end segment is configured to engage the inner surface portion of the liner implement being operable for tightening the upper edge component around an upper element of said receptacle. An adhesive free area is configured to be operable for grasping during the engagement of the second end segment adhesive with the inner surface portion of the liner implement upper edge component.
