Presentation box (2) comprising a semi-finished product (1) and at least two side panels (5) which are intended to be attached to the semi-finished product (1) and at least one attachment panel (16) which is intended to connect the aforementioned side panels in mounted condition with each other, whereby the semi-finished product (1) contains interconnected sheets which can be positioned such to form a sleeve with different segments (3) including at least a front side (3a) and a bottom (3b), a back side (3c) and an upperside (3d) and whereby the side panels (5) are provided with mounting means (10) to be able to mount the side panels (5) over the open ends (12a and 12b) of the thus formed sleeve and whereby the side panels (5) and the attachment panels (16) are provided with complementary attachment means such that the attachment panels (16) are or can be attached to the mounted side panels, whereby the attachment panels (16) form the connection between two facing side panels (5).

A container includes a metal end applied and sealed to an all-thermoplastic container body by a crimp-seaming or double-seaming operation. The metal end has an outer curl joined to a chuck wall that extends down from the curl. One or both of the inner surface of the container side wall and the outer surface of the chuck wall has/have a heat-sealable material thereon. The metal end is crimp-seamed or double-seamed to the container body and the heat-sealable material(s) are heated to soften or melt such that the interface between the chuck wall and the side wall is fused. The interface is oriented along a direction relative to internal pressure exerted on the metal end such that stress on the interface caused by the internal pressure is predominantly shear stress.

A grain storage bin includes a cylindrical wall formed by a plurality of panels arranged in rows with a bottom edge of a first row bolted to a top edge of a second lower row. At each joint the bottom edge of the first upper row is overlapped with and outside of the outer surface of top edge of the second lower row and the bottom edge is fastened to the top edge by bolts carrying spacers as to define a first channel along the joint for passage of air. A cover strip overlies the channel and extends from an upper edge of the strip at the inner surface of the first panel above the channel to a lower edge of the strip which is fastened to the top edge so as to define a second channel so that air can pass between the interior and the exterior through the first and second channels while the particulate material is prevented from escaping through the first channel by the cover strip.

A sealing interface configured to prevent galvanic corrosion of a container having parts made of dissimilar materials includes a first part, a second part, and a sealant. The first part has a first sealing surface and a first exterior surface substantially perpendicular to the first sealing surface. The second part has a second sealing surface and a second exterior surface substantially perpendicular to the second sealing surface. One of the parts includes an external sealing chamfer on the respective sealing surface extending to the respective exterior surface. The sealant at least fills a space formed between the external sealing chamfer and the sealing surface of the other of the parts when the parts are connected, forming a barrier between the parts such that the exterior surfaces of the parts are not in contact and are separated by the sealant. The exterior surfaces may be flush when the parts are connected.

A crate includes a base and an enclosure extending upwardly from the base defining a storage volume. A setback is defined around the enclosure such that a gap exists between corresponding sides of the base and the enclosure. The enclosure utilizes a lightweight, modular construction allowing the crate to be repeatedly assembled and disassembled for use and storage, and to allowing an enclosure storage volume to readily re-dimensioned as needed.

The present invention relates to a packaging system to enclose, protect, store and transport insulation materials, with the possibility to pack with no to low or high compression, to provide ventilation when packaged and to enable indoors or outdoors storage, exhibiting easy and economic as well as ecologic application, storage and transport as well as easy opening, the manufacture of such packaging and the use of such packaging.

A collapsible security container is disclosed. The collapsible security container comprises a collapsible box and a hinged-lid connected to the collapsible box. The collapsible box comprises a bottom panel: a front panel, a left side panel, a right side panel and a back panel connected to the bottom panel by fold lines along respective edges of the bottom panel, wherein the bottom panel, front panel, left side panel, right side panel and back panel define an interior compartment. A locking system secures the hinged-lid to the collapsible box. A strap is attached to the collapsible box. The strap has an attachment end that is attached to the collapsible box and a free end that terminates in a fastener or stopper for securing the security container about or to a structure such as a door or wall.
