Disclosed herein are devices for drying and storing polishing pads. The polishing pads may be used, for example, to polish paint or apply various waxes, sealants, and other coatings on the exterior surface of a vehicle. The devices herein include a first container for drying polishing pads. The first container has one or more perforations configured to allow the passage of air into and out of the first container. The devices may also include a second container for storing polishing pads, such as the dry and clean polishing pads. The devices may also include a third container for holding other items, such as additional polishing pads, and bottles (e.g., containing polish).

A construct includes at least one panel for supporting a food product, the at least one panel formed from a laminate structure having a base layer, a conductive layer, and a surface film. The construct further includes at least one spacing feature extending downwardly from the at least one panel for supporting the at least one panel a distance above an induction source for attenuating heat transferred to the food product in response to an oscillating magnetic field interacting with the conductive layer of the laminate structure.

A box blank useful for forming a container includes a first layer comprising paperboard, a second layer comprising a paper layer and a foil layer, and an adhesive layer adhering the first layer to the second layer, wherein the foil layer is between the paperboard and the paper layer.

Produce boxes and bags for shipping produce, e.g., bananas, utilize ventilation structures that allow for ventilation therethrough. A method of assembling produce boxes provides for cutouts that serve as ventilation structures in the boxes. When the produce boxes are stacked such as on a shipping pallet, the ventilation structures allow for ventilation of through the stacked boxes. Produce may be packed in a bag, which is closed with a rip cord and inserted into a produce box. The rip cord may be accessed when the box is in a stack such as on a shipping pallet, such that the rip cord may be pulled thereby opening the bag, without removing the box from the stack.

An animal transfer box for containing and transporting live animals, such as quail, includes two ventilated end panels opposite each other, two ventilated side panels opposite each other and connected to the end panels, a substantially non-ventilated bottom panel connected to the side panels, and a ventilated top panel connected to the side panels. Feet are secured to the bottom panel for supporting the bottom panel above a surface upon which the animal transfer box may be resting. The animal transfer box is formed from a single blank of cardboard having tabs and slots formed therein for securing the shape of the animal transfer box upon assembly. The end panels each comprise double-wall panels and one of the end panels has a full-length door while the other end panel has a partial-length door.

A box assembly can include an exterior piece including a first middle portion, a second middle portion, a third middle portion, and a fourth middle portion; the first middle portion and the third middle portion positioned perpendicular to the second middle portion and the fourth middle portion; a plurality of insulator pads including a first side insulator pad, a second side insulator pad, and a third side insulator pad; the first side insulator pad contacting the first middle portion; the second side insulator pad contacting the first middle portion, the second middle portion, and the third middle portion; the third side insulator pad contacting the third middle portion; and an interior piece positioned within the exterior piece, the interior piece including a first side panel and a second side panel; the first side insulator pad positioned between the first side panel and the first middle portion.

A method of collapsing a box from an expanded configuration to a collapsed configuration is disclosed. The method of collapsing a box from an expanded configuration to a collapsed configuration, the box comprising a side panel and a bottom panel attached to the side panel, can comprise bending a center fold line of the side panel; unbending a length fold line defined between the side panel and the bottom panel; bending a first corner fold line that extends from a bottom panel corner of the bottom panel to an edge fold line of a center subpanel of the bottom panel; and bending a second corner fold line that extends from the bottom panel corner to a longitudinal center line that bisects a bottom panel edge of the bottom panel.

The present invention provides apparatus for starting a fire, comprising a stack of combustible fuel elements (340, 350, 460, 462, 464) and a flammable ignition element (450) located in a combustible container (200) configured to provide at least one aperture (202) for igniting the flammable ignition element located therein. A kit of parts and a method of assembling the kit are also provided.
