The present invention discloses a collapsible container comprising a first cap with a container nozzle, a second cap, and a collapsible container body, connected to the first cap and the second cap in a sealable manner respectively to fix it on the first cap together with the second cap after it is collapsed. The collapsible container of the present invention is a breakthrough to the prior art of containers. The container body may be collapsed and contracted to reduce container volume and realize the purpose of convenient carriage.

Described herein are embodiments of a yarn-carrying and dispensing apparatus. The embodiments described allow knitters to easily transport, carry and use balls of yarn for knitting and other knitting materials. The embodiments prevent the ball of yarn from rolling away or getting tangled or intertwined. The embodiments also easily and smoothly dispense the yarn, making the knitting more efficient and easier for the knitter. The embodiments provide additional elements to accommodate a knitter: (i) a ruler allowing, for example, to measure a knitting sampler; (ii) a needle gauge and needle openings, allowing, for example, to measure the size of a needle; and (3) an insert allowing, for example, to hold one or more balls of yarn.

The present invention relates to thermoplastic products and packaging therefor. More particularly, some implementations of the invention relate to a thermoplastic material that is packaged in a box, such as a corrugated cardboard box. In some cases, the box has a quick opening mechanism extending between two opposite sides of the box. Some examples of such quick opening mechanisms include a perforation, a tear strip, a hook-and-loop fastener, and a chain stitch. While the packaging can in opened in any suitable manner, in some cases, a user grabs a flap on the box, pulls the flap to rip the box down a perforated quick opening mechanism, and uses the weight of the thermoplastic material to knock down the box so that it becomes substantially flat. Other implementations are also described.

A transport, storage and display case (10) and a transport storage and display case system of stacking compartments that can be interconnected and formed into multiple orientations according to the user's needs. The system is convertible between a display configuration and a stacked transport/storage configuration. Each case has rabbet ledges (62, 64) at its upper and lower edges for cooperating with adjacent cases. The outer surface of each case has one or more magnets provided to facilitate secure interaction between adjacent cases arranged in the display configuration.

A reusable, sanitary and folding container includes a base, two folding sidewalls, two folding end walls and latches and hinges. The base includes slots that receive the hinge pins that allow the sidewalls and end walls to fold up and down. These hinge slots are open and provide for water or spray through them during the cleaning process of a container after it has been used. The container is formed of a resilient, but light polyurethane/fiber composite material.

A waterproof container is disclosed. The container can include first shell and a second shell; a first rim extending around the first shell; a second rim extending around the second shell; and a latch for securing the first shell to the second shell and defining an enclosed storage volume in a mated position. The first shell can include a grip projection adapted for opening the container from a mated position. The latch defines a latch recess adapted for receiving the grip projection when the latch secures the first shell to the second shell in the mated position. The second rim can include a continuous recess, having a pair of continuous sides and a seal ridge between, but spaced apart from, the continuous sides, while the first rim can include inner and outer continuous sealing ridges that fit over the seal ridge and between the continuous sides.

A foldable holding device that is provided in a floorboard, the foldable holding device including: a housing recess; a raisable top panel that fits into the housing recess while the raisable top panel is housed; a side panel foldably connected to one of side edges of the raisable top panel such that as the raisable top panel is raised, the side panel outwardly moves to form the foldable holding device in an open state; first and second holding sub-members respectively provided in the housing recess and at a position located directly adjacent to a lower edge of the side panel, and the first and second holding sub-members being configured to maintain a raised position of the side panel by engaging the first holding sub-members and the second holding sub-members to each other.
