An assembly including a cover device and a cap device for protecting a flange is provided. The cap device may include a cap cover for protecting at least a portion of a front surface of the flange and a retainer comprising at least two cap securing members releasably engageable with an inner surface of the flange in an interference fit, where the retainer is operable to releasably engage the cap cover in a friction-fit. The cover device may include a cover face for protecting the front surface of the flange, the cover face comprising an outer periphery; and an integrally-formed lip depending from the outer periphery of the cover face and perpendicular to the cover face, the lip comprising at least two cover securing members and releasably engagable with a peripheral edge of the flange.

A safety cap for steel reinforcing bar (rebar) has an outer body with an enlarged cap and an elongated stem extending from the cap. A hole in the stem enables the safety cap to fit over the exposed end of a section of rebar. A metal insert, molded within the safety cap, prevents the rebar from punching through the safety cap if a worker were to fall onto the safety cap. The safety cap is retained on the end of the rebar so that it cannot be easily knocked off, by a pair of threaded set screws, or by a magnet positioned within the safety cap over the end of the rebar.

A portable container for transporting and storing a plurality of perishable items including food and beverage items, having a heat-resistant outer tubular member with double-layered insulation in an adjacent inner tubular member to accommodate a plurality of perishable items and to sustain the prescribed temperature of such food and beverage items and to promote longevity thereof. The portable container optionally includes a plurality of external compartments and has removable endcaps enclosing both ends thereof. Each endcap is conveniently removed from a tubular end and then used as a cup for drinking a plurality of beverage items or used as a dish for eating a plurality of food items.

Port protection device particularly suited for an encapsulated filter unit. In certain embodiments, the protection device comprises a main body defining an internal region configured to receive a port or the like protruding from an encapsulated filter. In certain embodiments, the main body includes a slot that allows for easy removal of the protection device from the port or the like. A tube management system may be provided to receive and hold tubing. One suitable tube management system includes two spaced tangs that extend from the main body of the protection device and are configured to cooperatively receive and hold tubing between them.

A non-slip shaving cream holder device is disclosed. The device is a holder that keeps a shaving cream can in place to prevent rust on surfaces, such as a sink. The non-slip shaving cream holder device comprises a body component that is configured in a cylindrical shape to be secured to the bottom of a shaving cream container. The body component would be manufactured of silicone or other flexible material. The body component can also comprise a suction cup component that allows the device to be mounted on a wall surface. Thus, the holder device can be constantly kept in a readily accessible position. The device is also available in multiple sizes to accommodate all types of shaving cream containers.
