The application relates to a heat exchanger and a connecting system for the heat exchanger. This subject matter includes a housing formed by a top part and a bottom part and a first connecting element and a second connecting element connected to these top and bottom parts. Specific embodiments of the subject matter are shown in which the connecting elements connect the housing top part and bottom part by a positive and/or material connection. The advantages of each embodiment over prior approaches are too numerous to include in this abstract, but will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art when reviewing the full specification.

The invention is a bag, suitcase, wallet, money belt, purse or briefcase; a flexible vault of the present invention includes an outer pouch having a multilayer construction. The multilayer construction includes at least an inner layer, an outer layer, a first middle layer, and a second middle layer. In addition to the outer pouch, the flexible vault can also include an inner pouch having an extendable roll up portion which extends through an opening in the outer pouch when the outer pouch and the inner pouch are in an open position. The front panel, back panel, and fold over panel of the outer pouch each include an aperture. When the outer pouch is in a closed position the apertures align, enabling a locking mechanism to be threaded through all the apertures which secures the pouch in the closed position.

A robotic storage assembly includes a safe that may a plurality of items. A drawer is slidably coupled to the safe. A control is coupled to the safe and the control may be manipulated. A storage unit is positioned within the safe to contain the plurality of items. The storage unit includes a plurality of trays. A spacing unit is positioned within the safe and the spacing unit engages the plurality of trays. The spacing unit selectively spaces the trays apart from each other. A retrieval unit is positioned within the safe. The retrieval unit is selectively positioned between the trays when the trays are spaced apart. Thus, the retrieval unit retrieves the items in the storage unit. The retrieval unit is selectively aligned with the drawer to deposit the items in the drawer. Thus, the items may be removed from the safe.

A lockable receptacle, including a housing having five walls and an opening, a first door disposed on the housing to close the opening of the housing, a locking mechanism to lock the first door, and a camera connected to the locking mechanism to unlock the locking mechanism in response to an authorized user being recognized by the camera.

Storage panels for safes, such as gun safes. Some embodiments may comprise an interior storage panel configured so as to be positioned at least partially outside of a safe in an open position, and may be configured so as to extend along and be positioned at least substantially parallel to the safe door in a closed position with the safe door closed. In some embodiments, the interior storage panel may be configured to be repositioned between the open position and the closed position by rotating the interior storage panel about a pivot axis opposite from a pivot axis of the safe door. In some embodiments, the interior storage panel may be configured to extend away from a side of the safe when opened opposite from a side of the safe from which the safe door extends.

The present invention is a kiosk that can regulate, control and distributing authorized products. The kiosk has a user interface that receives information about a user and authenticates the user's identity. The kiosk can accept a user's request to purchase a regulated product. The kiosk can then a regulator the user's request for approval and deliver the product to the user.

A device for managing valuables includes a housing having a service area including a printer, a primary vault attached to the housing and having a primary vault locking system for storing valuables, and a secondary vault mounted in the housing and having control electronics for operating the device. The secondary vault isolates the control electronics from the primary vault and from the service area to inhibit tampering with the control electronics.
