The invention is directed to a stackable container having a gable type top wall and a gable type bottom wall. The top wall of the container can include an upwardly extending tab that cooperates with a slot in the bottom wall of a like container to facilitate stacking of two or more containers. The container includes a front opening.

The present invention provides a fold flat assembly capable of being erected into a display hutch having a shell and a tray assembly attached to an inner surface of the shell. The shell has opposed side walls spaced from one another and each having a front edge and a rear edge. A back panel connects the rear edges and a plurality slats connect portions of the front edges of the opposing side walls and are spaced from one another defining gaps between adjacent slats. The shell is moveable between a flat position and an erect position. The tray assembly has a peripheral wall and a bottom wall. The peripheral wall is connected to the back panel, the opposed side walls and one of the slats of the plurality of slats. The bottom wall is connected by a first hinge to a segment of the peripheral wall. The tray assembly folds flat within the shell and a portion of the bottom wall extends into one of the gaps when the shell is in the flat position, and the bottom wall forms a shelf, spanning from the one slat to the back panel, when the shell is in the erect position.

A container includes a plurality of panels connected together at fold lines configured for extending at least partially around an interior space. The panels include a front panel, a first side panel, a back panel and a second side panel. The back panel includes a first back portion and a second back portion. At least one of the first back portion or the second back portion is free from openings. A shelf panel is foldably connected to the front panel. The first back portion is adhered to the shelf panel.

A packaging assembly is provided with a product package. A plurality of retail products is supported upon the product package in an array for transportation. A plurality of dividers is connected to the product package and extends between sequential retail products for separation of the sequential retail products during shipping, wherein the dividers are removable.

A display stand suitable for displaying items with round, flat or uneven bottoms, including desserts such as French macarons is disclosed. The display stand can be assembled by the user, and includes at least one base sheet and at least one shelf sheet.

A flexible printed circuit is described that includes a flexible supporting substrate having a first face and a second face. A conductive material is deposited by vacuum deposition on at least one of the first face or the second face of the flexible supporting substrate. A flexible conductive circuit is formed on the conductive material by electrical discharge machining. The flexible conductive circuit defines a plurality of electrical component placement circuits to which electrical components may be attached. The flexible printed circuit can be rolled or folded. The flexible printed circuit can also be made in sizes much larger than is currently possible with other competing technologies.

A multiple shelf display hutch is provided that can be made from a single die cut blank. The blank comprises three or more vertical panels separated by vertical fold lines, the number of vertical panels equaling the number of sides of the hutch. The hutch may have three sides, four sides, six sides or any suitable number of sides. The layers/shelves may be vertically arranged so that their sides align vertically or may be offset from each other (rotated horizontally with respect to each other) in what may be referred to as twisted configuration.

The invention relates to a system for preventing bacterial infections in needle trajectories, comprising: a percutaneous surgical instrument (1) percutaneously introducible into a tissue (3) of a patient, such as a biopsy needle, and having an outer surface made of an electrically conductive material; a contact electrode (4) applicable to the skin (3a) of a patient;

a silver coating or element (P) arranged on or forming part of the instrument (1), and configured, sized and provided so as to break down by means of electrochemical release when a current is applied thereto, releasing silver ions into its surroundings; and an electric current generator (2) arranged and configured for generating a current and inducing the temporary circulation thereof between the instrument (1) acting as an anode, the tissue (3) and the contact electrode (4) acting as a cathode, respectively, with a specific magnitude and duration for producing a massive and sudden release of silver ions for the purpose of preventing post-treatment bacterial infections.

A display assembly for resting upon a support surface, the display assembly comprising a main body having self-supporting rigidity and substantially disposed in a first plane, the main body having an upper end and a lower end, a collapsible pocket, moveable between a collapsed configuration and an open configuration, the collapsible pocket having four side walls and a bottom wall wherein at least one of the bottom wall and the four side walls includes a fold line, wherein the collapsible pocket is formed of a material having a different thickness than the main body, and a coupler interconnecting the collapsible pocket and the main body, wherein the collapsible pocket in the open configuration and the main body are self-supporting in an upright orientation with the first plane being substantially perpendicular to the support surface.

A blank of material to be folded into a product display container is disclosed. The blank is substantially rectangular in shape and has a first edge, a second edge opposite of the first edge, a third edge disposed adjacent to the first edge and the second edge and a fourth edge disposed opposite the third edge. The blank comprises a tab disposed adjacent to the fourth edge; a plurality of perpendicular folds, wherein each perpendicular fold extends across the width of the blank and is disposed substantially perpendicular to the first edge and the second edge; and a plurality of angular folds, wherein each angular fold extends across the width of the blank and is disposed at a non-perpendicular angle with respect to the first edge and the second edge. The blank is utilized to make a tornado shaped product display.
