A substrate usable with a double-side adhesive strip to suspend the substrate to a wall surface. The substrate can have one or more access holes located within an outer perimeter of the substrate. Each access hole has an inner perimeter inwardly of the outer perimeter that is sized and shaped to allow a tab of the double-sided adhesive strip to be extracted through the inner perimeter, after the substrate is suspended on the wall surface. Various articles can attach to the suspended substrate, such as through magnetic attachment, a hook, or a shelf.

A kit can be used to construct a shower enclosure within a plurality of walls and above a floor. Each wall has a plurality of vertical studs. The kit comprises a prefabricated shower base having a drain hole, a plurality of attachment pieces, and a plurality of prefabricated shower wall panels. The prefabricated base is configured to be positioned on the floor so that its drain hole is positioned over the floor's drain outlet. Each attachment piece has a front planar portion and is configured to attach to a stud of a wall so that the front planar portions of the attachment pieces on the same wall frame are essentially co-planar and plumb regardless of whether the front-facing surfaces of the studs are co-planar, plumb, and straight. Each prefabricated wall panel has a backside configured to attach to the front planar portions of a plurality of the attachment sleeves.

An apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus includes a tray having a base connected to a plurality of sidewalls each of which extends away from the base and terminates at a rim, said tray defining a volume with an opening circumscribed by said rim, said rim comprising a press-fit sealing feature; a ring-shaped lid comprising a complimentary press-fit sealing feature configured to mate with said press-fit sealing feature; a product disposed in said volume wherein said product surface comprises at least one contour; and a flexible film, said flexible film spans said opening and adheres to the at least one contour of the product, and said flexible film is secured to said tray between said press-fit sealing feature of the rim and said complimentary press-fit sealing feature of the ring-shaped lid.

A utensil protection device, including a main body to store a head of a utensil therein, a plurality of sealing members removably disposed on a first end of the main body within at least a portion of the main body to prevent the head of the utensil from contamination, and a hinge disposed on a second end of the main body to facilitate movement of the main body from closed in a first position to at least partially opened in a second position.

Proposed is a formed meat composition comprising additives, a process for producing a formed meat slug and a combined meat/formed meat slug. It is a disadvantage of established dried formed meat compositions that they require stabilizing desiccants and/or have an unnatural, open-pored fine structure. The novel solution proposed is a formed meat composition which, in addition to prey animal meat, glycerol and salt, merely contains additives in the form of prey animal nutriment. Also proposed is a process for producing a formed meat slug in which a common comminution of meat and additives in a manner modelled on hunting is carried out. Finally proposed is a combined meat/formed meat slug which comprises in its primary constituents only animal meat ingredients and the recited additives. The claimed subject matter provides the particular advantage that, despite additives, a denser, more stable and closed fine structure is achieved.

Devices and methods for blast/fire containment are disclosed herein. Devices include containers designed to contain and/or mitigate high energy events such as blasts from explosions or thermal runaways. The containers include a body that is built to define an interior chamber shaped to receive an explosive device or a device susceptible to thermal runaway. The container comprises a plurality of substructures that are arranged in a layered sequence to provide the desired effect. The substructures act in concert to decouple the shock load to the main containment structure using shock decoupling with energy dissipation and attenuation technology, having a highly deformable polymer structure, and managed venting. In thermally dominated events, such as a runaway LI battery fire, a crushable medium present in one or more layers of the container presents a significant thermal barrier and contains the fire.

An apparatus for shipping or storage of Li-ion batteries comprises a sealable outer bag fabricated from heat-resistant, permeable fabric, a first flexible thermal runaway shield (“TRS”) fabricated from low-permeability film configured to line a first inside surface of the outer bag, a second flexible TRS fabricated from low-permeability film configured to line a second inside surface of the outer bag, and at least one Li-ion battery configured to be disposed between the first flexible TRS and the second TRS of the sealable outer bag to provide a sealed outer bag.

The present application discloses a device including a first triangular panel, a second triangular panel, a first side panel coupling the first triangular panel and the second triangular panel at a first common side of the first triangular panel and the second triangular panel, a second side panel coupling the first triangular panel and the second triangular panel at a second common side of the first triangular panel and the second triangular panel, a bottom panel coupling the first triangular panel, the second triangular panel, the first side panel, and the second side panel, and at least one shelf coupled in an interior of the first triangular panel, the second triangular panel, the first side panel, and the second side panel.
