A configurable container assembly is described. Embodiments of the configurable container assembly can include a container having a plurality of slots located around a perimeter of a top of the container. The slots can be configured to receive protrusions of one or more accessories. The configurable container assembly can be implemented in a closed configuration and an open configuration.

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.

Systems are provided for storing and serving a food product. The systems can include a base portion, a top portion, and a mechanism for raising and lowering the food product relative to the base portion, and are configured to prevent spillage and/or leakage of any portion of the food product during storage and consumption of the food product.

An example storage chest is provided. The example storage chest may include a box portion and a lid. The box portion may include a front wall, a rear wall, and a floor attached to the front and rear walls to form a primary compartment for storage of items. The lid may include a front panel, a rear panel, and a top panel attached to the front a rear panels. The rear panel may be pivotably coupled to the rear wall of the box portion. The front panel, the rear panel, and the top panel may define a secondary compartment within the lid for storage of items. The secondary compartment may include a lid storage compartment comprising a hingedly affixed door.

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 method for applying a water-based coating and/or coating system to a metallic substrate to form sag resistant coatings is described. The method is particularly effective for protecting metal-containing substrates, such as intermodal cargo containers, against corrosion. The water-based coating includes an aqueous carrier, a resin component in admixture with the aqueous carrier and a high level of one or more CAS agents for excellent sag resistance.

The invention describes a secondary packaging box for pharmaceutical products, comprising at least two separable compartments wherein the box comprises perforation to enable separation of the compartments. The box includes means for keeping the primary package stable and also detection of tampering owing to its design.

Provided is a polygonal in which a decoration effect equivalent to that of a cylindrical base-can is obtained without causing folding or deformation in a can body-part. Bottom-part outer-peripheral parts (A-2) of a cylindrical base-can that are expected to form linear parts (B-2) of a polygonal can (B) are moved inward in a radial direction, while bottom-part outer-peripheral parts (A-1) of the cylindrical base-can that are expected to form corner parts (B-1) of the polygonal can are moved outward in the radial direction. Thus, the polygonal can is molded such that the body-part cross-section peripheral length of the cylindrical base-can and the body-part cross-section peripheral length of the molded polygonal can have a substantially isometric relationship.

A system to assess and prove the efficacy of one or more indoor air purification devices. Sensors to detect direct stimulus as to particulate and gas impurities, and collect and send the data collected from those sensors via a network to a computing device to analyze the sensor data and prove whether or not the purification devices are operating correctly. The system may also collect and analyze indirect stimulus data such as current, light intensity, temperature, humidity and air flow to prove or disprove efficacy of the purification device(s).
