A pallet assembly is provided and includes one of a bushing, a utility panel assembly and tooling features. The bushing is securably insertable into bushing openings defined in bottom and top pallet assembly panels and pallet assembly sidewalls. The bushing is selected from a group including multiple bushings having bores of various sizes and one or more apertures of varying sizes that are communicative with the bores. The utility panel assembly is supportively disposable on the bottom pallet assembly panel and includes a utility panel having multiple connectors. The tooling features supportively connect the pallet assembly sidewalls to a transport cart.

A dispensing device, comprising a container, one or more support members mechanically coupled to one or more of the lateral walls, a base which has one or more supporting arms and a cover element mechanically coupled to one or more of the supporting arms to remain fixed while said container rotates around said rotation axis. The container includes a storage portion defined by a circumferential wall and two or more lateral walls with a dispensing opening defined in the circumferential wall. The supporting arm(s) support rotation of the container from a closed state to an open state and vice versa. The rotation is held around a rotation axis defined by a location of the support member(s). The cover element covers the dispensing opening when the container is rotated into the closed state and does not cover the dispensing opening when the container is rotated into the open state.

A user-replaceable e-liquid reservoir for dispensing e-liquid, the reservoir being inserted into, or otherwise attached to, a portable, personal e-cigarette device and engaging with an electrical or electronic pump fluid transfer system in the device, the device including: an electrical or electronic pump, being configured to transfer e-liquid from the e-liquid reservoir to an atomizing unit in the device, the pump delivering a pre-defined or variable quantity of e-liquid from the reservoir, and in which the reservoir is not user-refillable.

In accordance with presently disclosed embodiments, a front access battery tray is provided. In one embodiment, the front access battery tray comprises a base having a front edge, two side edges, and a back edge; a pair of side panels extending substantially perpendicularly from the side edges of the base, each side panel comprising a top edge and an outer surface, wherein at least one retainer peg extends away from each outer surface; a pair of flanges extending from the top edge of each side panel, each flange comprising an inner lip; a back panel extending substantially perpendicularly from the back edge of the base; and a retainer bracket detachably coupled to at least one of the retainer pegs on the side panels.

A user-replaceable e-liquid reservoir for dispensing e-liquid, the reservoir being inserted into, or otherwise attached to, a portable, personal e-cigarette device and engaging with an electrical or electronic pump fluid transfer system in the device, the device including: an electrical or electronic pump, being configured to transfer e-liquid from the e-liquid reservoir to an atomizing unit in the device, the pump delivering a pre-defined or variable quantity of e-liquid from the reservoir; and in which the reservoir is not user-refillable.

A heavy load carrier includes a base and four peripherally arranged side walls and at least one flap in a side wall, which can be folded outwards, a compulsory guide being provided for a translational movement of the flap when the flap swivels upwards.

An e-cigarette PV that includes an air pressure valve or device so that excess air can escape from an e-liquid reservoir in the PV when that reservoir is being filled under pressure with e-liquid from a parent reservoir. The valve or device is a barrier made of an air-porous material, such as a sintered polymer or metal, coated with or otherwise including a barrier or layer of an air-porous substance that is not porous to e-liquid, such as an oleophobic material or a hydrophobic or super-hydrophobic material. The oleophobic material is one of: sintered phosphor bronze, sintered stainless steel and sintered PU plastic.

According to the invention, in order to create a container (1) for receiving beverages, in particular a drinks container or drinks cup, at least comprising a base (2) and a circumferential wall (3) projecting approximately perpendicularly from the base (2), which can be produced particularly inexpensively, can be filled within a minimum time and can be securely sealed after the filling, the wall (3) has openings (4) via which the container (1) can be filled with a beverage, wherein the openings (4) can be closed after the filling via a sealing means that is/can be applied from outside to the outer surface of the wall (3). The invention also relates to a device that can fill a container of this type with a corresponding beverage, such as beer or a soft drink, within a minimum time, said device being simple to operate, inexpensive and simple to produce and having a long service life.

A configurable container assembly is described. Embodiments of the configurable container assembly can include a container having a plurality of slots located around a perimeter of a top of the container. The slots can be configured to receive protrusions of one or more accessories. The configurable container assembly can be implemented in a closed configuration and an open configuration.
