The present invention relates to a shipping container for mitigating external fire risks. The shipping container is configured for shipping lithium ion batteries with a cargo cavity proximate and interior to a second inner flame-retardant corrugated layer. The second inner flame-retardant corrugated layer is proximate and interior to an inner thermal paste panel. The inner thermal paste panel is proximate and interior to a dead air space panel. The dead air space panel is proximate and interior to a first inner flame-retardant corrugated layer. The first inner flame-retardant corrugated layer is proximate and interior to an outer thermal paste panel. The outer thermal paste panel is proximate and interior to a flame-retardant corrugated carton. The thermal paste panels preferably comprise aluminum flashing containing a mesh matrix for holding flowable thermal paste. The shipping container is lidded by a fitted cap above an air cap above a vacuum plenum cap.

An adaptable, cleanable beverage container, generally for athletic use, with an enlarged opening at the top for depositing materials and flavors, a removable base for ease of cleaning, and an optionally insertable column removably connected to said removable base for securing a cooling or heating fluid or gel into the container. Optionally, the beverage container walls can be insulated with a hearing or cooling gel or other liquid for providing temperature control.

A corrugated plastic box and a method for manufacturing a corrugated plastic box from a blank are provided. The method includes the steps of forming rounded edge seals on the perimeter edges of the blank, pre-sealing portions of the blank to form a plurality of areas in which major and minor flap slots and a glue tab are desired, ultrasonically scoring the blank to form a plurality of flap score lines, and cutting the blank through the plurality of pre-sealed flap slots and glue tab, leaving a sealed edge.

The invention is directed to straight, consistent body scores on plastic corrugated boxes and a process for making the body scores.

The present application discloses a container comprising a container housing, a container bottom, a container top, and an outer shield. The container housing and the outer shield are movable relatively to each other. When the relative position between the container housing and the outer shield changes, at least part of a container see-through area can be aligned with at least part of a shield see-through area, or the container see-through area can be completely blocked by a shield blocking area. When the container see-through area and the shield see-through area are offset, the content stored inside the container can be protected from light. When the container see-through area and the shield see-through area are aligned, the content stored inside the container can be viewed from the outside of the container.

The present invention relates to a flame retardant shipping container for lithium ion batteries, and more particularly for containing a thermal runaway event. The shipping container comprising an outer box, preferably made of flame-retardant corrugated fiberboard, containing a vacuum plenum/thermal shield assembly and a tray and a first flame-retardant pouch. The assembly comprising an inner container on a thermal shield inside a metalized vacuum bag. The inner container further comprises an inner cavity and an opening and a second flame-retardant pouch. The assembly rests on the tray. The pouches contain molecular sieves and palladium plated microsphere catalysts. The thermal shield has an aluminum foil surface and is filled with thermal paste. The tray is preferably flame-retardant molded paper pulp and forms at least two pockets separated by flame-retardant molded pulp separators. The tray is separated from the outer box by an air gap containing the first flame-retardant pouch.

A double-wall vacuum-insulated food container with complementary lid is disclosed. The body of the container has a base and an upwardly-extending side wall terminating in an upper free edge. The container also has an inner portion and a complementary outer portion with a gap between. The interior of the container defines a plurality of independently sealed compartments. The lid sealingly fits onto the upper free edge of the container. The lid includes a central member and a surrounding frame with a sealing ring. The sealing ring serves as an interface between a lower peripheral edge of the frame and the upper free edge of the container. The frame has fastening members which complementary features disposed about the upper free edge of the container.

There are provided a liquid vessel which is capable of being configured in a large size of prefabricated form, and a method for producing a glass product.

A liquid vessel for holding a liquid, comprising at least a first member, a second member and a third member; and a first engageable portion and a second engageable portion being configured such that the first member and the second member are brought into contact with each other to be engaged, and a third engageable portion being configured such that the third member is brought into contact with the first member and the second member in a direction intersecting an engagement direction of the first member and the second member to be engaged with the first member and the second member.

A double barrel for hazardous goods with an outer barrel of plastic and an inner barrel of plastic received in the outer barrel. The body of the outer barrel is formed of a first barrel part and a second barrel part. The first barrel part has a first connecting area and the second barrel part has a second connecting area that is complementary to the first connecting area. The first and the second barrel part are firmly connected to each other via the connecting areas in an assembled state by means of a circumferential plastic weld seam.

A shipping container for shipping thermally active materials includes a plurality of structural panels that define a container interior, and are configured for receiving the thermally active materials. The container also includes an exterior disposed adjacent to an environment in which the shipping container is disposed. A thermal barrier member is placeable between the thermally active materials and the environment in which the container is placed. The thermal barrier includes a thermal barrier interior panel and a thermal barrier external panel defining a heat absorbing material receiving cavity. A flowable polymer based heat absorbing material is disposed within the heat absorbing material receiving cavity. The thermal barrier is configured to substantially surround the thermally active materials to reduce the passage of thermal energy between the thermally active materials and the environment in which the shipping container is disposed.
