A method of producing a plastic tank includes preparing a tank wall as a hot semi-finished sheet, in which at least one outer layer of the hot semi-finished sheet is composed of a first material. A reinforcing sheet, composed at least partially of the first material, is then attached to at least one region of the outer layer of the hot semi-finished sheet via a weld connection. The hot semi-finished sheet with the attached reinforcing sheet is then shaped to form the tank wall while simultaneously enhancing the attachment of the reinforcing sheet to the tank wall.

A tank that includes a tank wall composed of a plastic material, and at least one reinforcing profile member configured to minimize deformation of the plastic tank. The at least one reinforcing profile member is configured for arrangement on an outer side of the tank wall to be engaged by the tank wall and establish a positive material bond connection therewith. The at least one reinforcing profile member has a retaining geometry region with a plurality of openings through and/or into which material of the tank wall extends and onto a rear side of the reinforcing profile member facing away from the tank wall to thereby establish the positive material bond connection between the tank wall and the at least one reinforcing profile member at the retaining geometry region.

A hand tool includes a handle which is a hollow handle with a space defined therein. A connection portion has a slit defined in the first end thereof. The connection portion has two ribs extending inward from an inside of the second end thereof. The handle has a tubular portion extending from one end thereof. A protrusion extends outward from outside of the tubular portion. The tubular portion is inserted into the second end of the connection portion, and the ribs are engaged with the protrusion. A blade has a body and a toothed portion. The toothed portion is inserted into the slit of the connection portion. A cooling material is located in the space of the handle. The connection portion of the handle is connected to the toothed portion of the blade. The cooling material performs as a weight in the handle.

A painted vehicle trim component such as a spoiler, side-view mirror housing, or other vehicle body part is provided with electroluminescent paint to emit light from its surface. The trim component includes a substrate having a mounting surface for attaching to the vehicle. A conductor body is at least partially embedded in the substrate to provide a conductive surface exposed externally of the substrate. A conductive wire is crimped to the conductor body and is adapted to connect to an electrical power source remotely from the vehicle trim component. A conductive bus bar paint layer is deposited over the substrate and onto the exposed conductive surface of the conductor body. A light-emitting paint layer deposited over the substrate is disposed relative to the conductive paint layer such that light is emitted when an electrical signal is received at the conductive wire.

Described herein is a multiple compartment container assembly which allows multiple distinct substances to be separately stored and/or consumed and/or dispensed. The separate compartments are accessed through apertures located at opposing ends of the container assembly, each aperture having a separate, leak resistant closure. A user may select which of the compartments to access by opening one or another of the closures.
