Portable container and container assembly
A portable container and container assembly provides a durable, functional and simple carry-all solution for dry and wet provisions, goods and gear. Exemplary features of various embodiments include one or more of an overmolded pad on the bottom of the container, a removable handle incorporating a releasable retaining structure, a lid that seals within the container cavity and is flush with the outer periphery of the container sidewall and/or has a cellular internal reinforcing structure, a skirt extending around the sidewall that is integral with handle mounts for the handle and/or provides a connection point for external components, and a drop-in tray with a collapsible handle.
Wardrobe box
The wardrobe box comprises a lid a bottom and side walls, comprising also a door at one of its side walls, wherein the lid comprises two hinged sectors engageable to each other. The sectors of the lid comprise preferably complementary flaps engageable to each other, and the door comprises a detachable closing element. This permits to use no additional closing element, such as e.g. adhesive tape, to close the lid and to keep the door closed.
FOOD, WATER AND VITAL SUPPLIES STORAGE AND TRANSPORT CART
Collapsible reusable watertight carrying cases are provided in sizes varying from small containers to large sealable container bins on wheels, to provide large quantities of water to remote areas not served by public water supplies, or where water supplies are unavailable because of weather disasters. The cases are assembled or disassembled from a joined flat space-saving configuration to a functioning case and vice-versa. The sides of the cases are erected progressively by hand by interlocking elements at the corners. The panels also disassemble progressively by being manually pulled apart. When folded into a flat storage or shipping configuration, the panels stay together, resisting unfolding by virtue of snaps which are either molded into the panels or bonded to them. The carrying cases are resistant to water, dirt, bacteria, molds, allergens, and inclement weather.
Universal cover for hygiene cloth dispensers
A universal cover for hygiene cloth dispensers includes a flexible pouch for holding hygiene cloths stored in a plurality of different hygiene cloth dispensers. The flexible pouch has a top wall, a bottom wall, and an interior space between the top and bottom walls. The universal cover includes a seam that can be opened to an open position and resealed to a closed position to connect the top wall to the bottom wall. The open position defines a refill opening for receiving the different hygiene cloth dispensers. A dispensing opening is formed in the top wall of the universal cover. The dispensing opening is reinforced against deformation due to exposure to moisture, body oils, dirt, and stretching. The dispensing opening is sized such that different sized movable and non-movable covers of at least two different commercial hygiene cloth dispensers are accessible through the dispensing opening.
High performance photocurable optically clear adhesive
The present invention is an optically clear, curable adhesive including a polyvinylbutyral, a polyurethane (meth)acrylate, and a photoinitiator. The polyvinylbutyral has a dynamic viscosity of between about 9 and about 13 mPa.Math.s and a polyvinyl alcohol weight percent of less than about 18%. The polyurethane (meth)acrylate includes the reaction product of a diol, at least one diisocyanate, and a hydroxyfunctional (meth)acrylate or an isocyanatofunctional (meth)acrylate. When the optically clear, curable adhesive is placed between two transparent substrates and made into a laminate, the laminate has a haze of less than about 6%, a transmission of greater than about 88% and an optical clarity of greater than about 98% when cured. The optically clear, curable adhesive also has a peel adhesion of at least about 100 g/cm based on ASTM 3330 when cured.
Apparatus for Closing a Container
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide an apparatus attachable to a container and usable to secure the container closed. The apparatus is transitionable from a nonuse configuration to a use configuration to form an (at least partially) elastic loop attached to the container and usable to circumscribe the container to secure the container closed.
Machinable enveloping of adhesive tape with a backing layer
An adhesive tape with a backing layer is longitudinally folded upon itself, creating an approximately 180-degree angle at each of two ends of the tape, and a first longitudinal section of multiple layers of the adhesive tape and a second longitudinal section of multiple layers of the adhesive tape such that the first section is positioned above and parallel to the second section. The folding does not crease the tape at either end of the tape. The first longitudinal section and second longitudinal section are maintained in contact or close proximity via a piece of tape, clip, rubber band, or other means, such that the adhesive tape is maintained in a flat profile. The adhesive tape in its flat profile can then be easily inserted into a United States first class letter-sized mailing envelope.
METHOD OF USING A BLANK WITH RAMP PANEL
The method includes a blank with a lid and a top wall respectively connected to a first side and a second side of a bottom wall, a first sidewall connected to a first end of the bottom wall, and a ramp panel connected to the first sidewall along a first edge of the first sidewall, the method including first folding the ramp panel so that a second end of the ramp panel contacts the bottom wall, second folding the top wall into a first closed position over the bottom wall to at least partially form a package, the top wall defining an opening, at least part of the ramp panel and the first edge being viewable through the opening when the top wall is in the closed position, the lid in a second closed position at least partially covering the opening.
Reusable inflatable packaging device
A reusable packaging device that in a use state is a rhomboid outer structure with an internal inflatable and reusable vessel that surrounds and protects a payload, that can be converted into a storage state by deflating the vessel and folding the outer structure flat in order that it may be stacked.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR STORAGE OF SANITARY USE ARTICLES
A holder for the use of sanitary use articles includes a storage pouch including at least front and rear sides, a main access configured to allow the storage pouch to be reversibly interlocked and receive a plurality of gloves within the storage pouch, a dispensing slot disposed on the front side of the storage pouch, wherein the dispensing slot is optionally covered by a reversibly-sealable sanitary strip, and an adhesive patch disposed on the rear side of the storage pouch, wherein the storage pouch is configured to be adhered, by way of the adhesive patch, to an inner portion of a fuel filling compartment door of a vehicle.
