HIGH TEMPERATURE THERMOSTABLE FOODSERVICE TRAY
An example disposable food service tray that can withstand high heat is disclosed. The disposable food tray includes a first layer comprising paper board, and a second layer comprising polyethylene terephthalate (PET) affixed to the first layer, wherein an adhesion between the first layer and the second layer is configured to withstand a temperature of up to 525 degrees Fahrenheit for up to six minutes without blistering.
EDIBLE TABLEWARE AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME
Edible tableware made from a baked dough capable of holding warm liquids for an extended period of time without leakage and a method of making the same. Edible tableware has recently become an area of interest due to a desire to provide more environmentally friendly options for disposable tableware. In disposable tableware, when using paper instead of plastic, the paper that is used to make the disposable tableware is liquid resistant due to a wax or plastic coating. Existing edible tableware has taken a similar approach and uses a heavy sugar glaze as a way of keeping liquids from penetrating into the baked part of the tableware. The use of a sugar glaze is not ideal because an imperfect glazing or too light of a glazing can result in liquid penetrating the baked portion and causing leakage and/or structural failure. Further, the extra sugar contained in the glazing may be undesirable to the consumer. Accordingly, there is a need for edible tableware that does not require a separate glaze for liquid resistance.
PLATE ATTACHMENT ASSEMBLY
A plate attachment assembly that includes a first plate shell and a second plate shell configured to interlock with one another. The first plate shell and the second plate shell each have a bottom wall and a surrounding sidewall with a flange disposed thereon. The first and second plate shells are operably configured to selectively removably couple together in a watertight configuration using a locking tab disposed on one of the plate shells and a raised sidewall disposed above the flange of the first plate shell.
Sensor device configuration
A sensor device includes an interrogation signal transmitter configured to transmit an interrogation signal to determine an identifier associated with an amount of content included in a container engaged by the sensor device. The interrogation signal transmitter is configured to transmit the interrogation signal that travels through air included in the container to reflect off the content in the container.

Child seat system
A child seat system which provides adaptable portions capable of being configured in different forms including a car seat, a highchair, a climbing apparatus, and a stroller. The system includes removably attachable major components including a seat assembly, a highchair base assembly, and a stroller base assembly. The system is envisioned to include a number of entertaining and educational features for an occupant such as audio video accessories, a cup holder, and a mirror.
Baby bottle sensor with content volume sensing and content deduction logic
A baby bottle sensor with content volume sensing and content deduction logic is attachable to a baby bottle. The sensor measures a volume of fluid in the baby bottle and uses programmed logic to deduce whether formula or some other fluid is being fed. Collected data is stored and reported to a paired Bluetooth device.
USING A PROVIDED INDICATION OF FILL LEVEL TO TRACK AMOUNT OF CONTENT IN A CONTAINER
An indication of a level of content within a container is received. A depth value associated with the indication of the level of content is identified. A content amount value corresponding to the depth value using a predetermined relationship between the depth value and the content amount value is retrieved. An indication associated with the content amount value is provided.

LID FOR A CONTAINER
A lid may be sized and configured to be attached to a container, and the lid may include an activator, a fluid-flow member, and a connecting member. The activator, the fluid-flow member and the connecting member may be pivotally connected. The activator, the fluid-flow member, and the connecting member may be movable between open and closed positions. When the activator, the fluid-flow member, and the connecting member are in the closed position, fluid may be prevented from exiting the container. When the activator, the fluid-flow member, and the connecting member are in the open position, fluid may exit the container through a fluid passageway.
