A bar assembly configured to transition between a bar configuration in which the bar assembly forms a bar structure and a box configuration in which the bar assembly forms a closed container. The bar assembly includes a base portion, lid portion, roof assembly, and bar. The base portion defines an upwardly opening interior area. The lid portion is configured to pivot between open and closed positions. The lid portion covers the interior area when in the closed position. Together, the base and lid portions define the closed container when the lid portion is in the closed position. The roof assembly includes an interior covering configured to be connected to the lid portion when the lid portion is in the open position. The bar is configured to be connected to the base portion. Together, the bar, the base portion, the lid portion, and the roof assembly define the bar structure.

A belt loop for women's clothes and a method for sewing the same are proposed, wherein a belt loop has a structure in which both ends of the loop including multi-strand twisted yarns are connected to an integral piece or separate pieces of cloth for sewing, so that, when the front and back parts or the top and bottom parts of a garment are sewn with each other in a garment manufacturing process, the piece(s) of cloth for sewing can be sewn together therewith, and thus the belt loop can be formed simultaneously with the garment manufacturing process, which leads to process simplification and garment manufacturing cost reduction.

Adjustable hinge assemblies for partially or completely rotating an object joined thereto about an axis in specific, pre-determined increments defined by the interaction of ball pins and detents permit the adjustable hinge to retain an attached object in specific rotational positions until sufficient force is applied in the plane of rotation to overcome this interaction. In certain cases the object may be a door, window, baffle, or airfoil. Preferably, the adjustable hinges may be used as part of a sneeze guard assembly to hold a main sneeze guard pane whose angle can be adjusted to protect food from airborne contamination, such as in airborne saliva or mucus droplets. An optional tuck-away hinge pane prevents contamination of food from the ends of the sneeze guard assembly.
