An exemplary electronic cigarette includes a housing, a mouthpiece arranged at a first end of the housing, a simulate cigarette end arranged at an opposite second end of the housing, a battery module received in the housing, a liquid cup arranged in the housing, and an atomizing unit arranged in the housing. The liquid cup is configured for containing tobacco liquid. The atomizing unit is electrically connected with the battery module, and configured for atomizing the tobacco liquid to form aerosol. The liquid cup includes a cup body and a resilient plug at an end of the cup body. The resilient plug is capable of being pierced by a needle of an injector, and capable of restoring to a sealed state after the needle of the injector is removed.

A liquid container including: at least two compartments (2; 3) which are each provided with a fluid inlet and outlet and which are connectable to a fluid flow circuit, respectively, at least one communication area (4) between the compartments (2; 3), at least one opening (5) for filling the container, at least one plug (6) for closing the opening (5) for filling the container, the opening (5) for filling the container is an opening common to the compartments (2, 3) and the container further includes at least one member (7) for closing the communication area (4) between the compartments (2, 3), the closing member being movably mounted between an open position of the area and a closed position of the area, the closing member being in a closed position of the area in a closed position of the filling opening plug.

A portable beverage container includes a container body defining an interior volume adapted to store a liquid, and a handle assembly including a first handle portion movably coupled to a first exterior portion of the container body and a second handle portion movably coupled to a second exterior portion of the container body. The first and second handle portions are movably coupled to one another to move the handle assembly between an open configuration, in which the first and second handle portions extend away from the container body, and a collapsed configuration, in which the first and second handle portions are immediately adjacent the container body.

A segmented shortwise container volume apparatus that includes a primary base, a primary surrounding sidewall with an interior, a primary cap with an aperture and a sealing plug, a secondary base, a secondary surrounding sidewall with an interior, a secondary cap with an aperture and a sealing plug, and a sleeve element having a first end portion and an opposing second end portion, the sleeve element having a sleeve outer surface and an opposing sleeve inner surface, wherein the sleeve inner surface is slid over the primary and secondary surrounding sidewalls to hold the primary and secondary bases adjacent to one another, creating a single container with two separate interiors, being the primary and secondary interiors.

A recyclable, thermally insulated shipping container is entirely constructed from organic fiber materials in such a manner that the container is curbside recyclable without separation of component materials. The container includes a corrugated cardboard outer box having a bottom wall, a plurality of sidewalls and a top wall, a corrugated cardboard inner liner assembly comprising a corrugated cardboard inner box having a bottom wall and a plurality of sidewalls, and a corrugated cardboard lid assembly. The outer box, inner liner assembly and lid assembly cooperate to create a plurality of thermally insulated cavities which are filled and uniformly packed with predetermined volumes of loose-fill cellulose (organic fiber) insulation to create a predetermined insulating value. The container provides a fully insulated six-sided product cavity to receive a temperature-controlled product. A portion of the product cavity may be filled with a PCM or other thermal media to provide a consistent temperature profile.

A wine bottle is provided with a punt at a lower end which includes a cork retainer therein. A cork can thus be stored within the cork retainer. In one embodiment, the cork retainer includes two retainer surfaces which are opposing each other horizontally, and spaced apart by a length similar to opposing portions of the cork to allow the cork to fit tightly between these retainer surfaces. Space above the retainer surfaces can hold a foil wrap with the cork within the cork retainer and holding the foil wrap in place. Full re-use of the bottle is thus facilitated. In one embodiment, the bottle has an octagonal shape so that multiple bottles can be shipped together and placed adjacent each other with flat surfaces distributing loads therebetween, without forces concentrated at points thereof, and to keep the bottles in good shape for washing, refilling and re-use.

A stopper configured to hermetically close a nozzle intended to contain a biopharmaceutical fluid with a cylindrical bore of diameter (D1) and a flange having a groove. The stopper has a body with a front part with a cylindrical outer wall about an axis A, with a diameter at rest greater than (D1), intended to be received under stress in the cylindrical bore of the nozzle, a stop disc extending a rear part of the body radially towards the outside and extending in a plane transverse to the axis. The body and the stop disc are rotationally symmetric about the axis A. The stop disc includes an annular bulge, interposed radially between a first annular shoulder and a second annular shoulder, the bulge extending forward from the stop disc and being intended to be received in the groove in the flange of the nozzle.

Pouring closure for liquid containers with pour spout sealingly fixed to a container neck, the cross section of which is closed by a membrane before use. A portion of the membrane extends transversely, approximately pear-shaped, and connected to the remaining portion via an easily tearable line of weakness and can be detached from the membrane. After detachment, an opening in the membrane is released that is correspondingly pear-shape, and liquid poured selectively out of a relatively narrower section or wider section. The pouring closure is produced by tearing out a membrane section and facilitates dosed pouring. Webs on the inner surface at a close distance parallel to the line of weakness and outside the tear-out section run on both sides of the narrow section of the tear-out portion or of the opening and along at least a portion of a transition region between the narrower and the wider sections.

A wooden barrel apparatus for aging products includes an inner wooden barrel positioned in an outer wooden barrel. A first volume may be defined within the inner wooden barrel. A second volume may be defined between the inner wooden barrel and the outer wooden barrel. One or more surfaces of the inner wooden barrel and the outer wooden barrel may be charred.

A container assembly is provided comprising a container body, a stopper member removably attachable to the container to seal a container aperture thereof, and a thermal insulation member removably attachable to an upper body portion of the container body. The thermal insulation member has a sidewall extending downwardly from an upper portion and defining a downwardly opening cavity within which the upper body portion and the stopper are positioned. The sidewall and the upper portion of the thermal insulation member each include an inner wall and an outer wall spaced apart from the inner wall. An insulation chamber is disposed between the inner and outer walls. The thermal insulation member includes an engagement portion adapted to engage with a corresponding engagement portion of the upper body portion to removably attach the thermal insulation member thereto.
