A system of interchangeable chafing dish components may comprise a water pan comprising a holding portion configured to receive and hold at least one of liquid and ice, a food pan capable of being restably coupled to the water pan, the food pan comprising an interior portion configured to receive and hold at least one of a food and a liquid, a lid capable of being interchangeably coupled to at least one of the water pan and the food pan, and a plurality of knobs comprising a first knob and a second knob that is different from the first knob, wherein each of the first knob and the second knob is capable of being interchangeably coupled to the lid.

An improved drinking can enables a user to have fluid return into the can after drinking The improved drinking can comprises a can body comprising a contoured bottom edge immediately adjacent to a bottom recess. The can body further comprising a can top mechanically coupled to a spout. Where the spout is shaped to funnel fluid back into the can body. The bottom recess is shaped to enable a first improved drinking can to sit upon a second improved drinking can where bottom recess covers can top. This protects the drinking area from becoming contaminated during shipment, storage, and display. The can body is covered with a mural where the mural is covered by a mural cover comprising a tab such that the mural cover can be removed by applying force to the tab displaying the mural.

A fluid reservoir assembly, for containing a fluid such as a lubricant is disclosed with a first end plate, a body and a second end plate. The body is preferably formed from plastic or glass. The end plates are composed of a molded plastic resin and are sealingly fastened to the body with an adhesive. The reservoir assembly has an inlet and outlet. Depending upon the configuration of the end plates and body, reservoirs of various sizes, capacities and cross-sectional shapes (e.g. circular, rectangular, etc.) can be fabricated without the need for dedicated molds and specialized tooling.

A composite includes a multilayer polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film having a base layer and an adjacent skin layer. The PET of the skin layer has inherent viscosity of about 0.70-0.90 and carboxyl endgroup concentration of less than 25 eq/T. The base layer can be affixed to a thin metal sheet. Optionally, the base layer of a second multilayer PET film with a skin layer inherent viscosity of about 0.70-0.90 and carboxyl endgroup concentration of less than 25 eq/T can be affixed to the opposite side of the metal sheet. The composite is suited for making food and chemical containers such as food storage cans that resist blush discoloration from steam contact during container formation and age degradation during extended storage of harsh chemical products.

A control box for a generator set, including a support structure configured to be mounted to a rail. The support structure can include a first planar panel configured to be mounted to the rail, and a second planar panel offset from the first planar panel and configured to be mounted to the rail. The control box can also include a top cover configured to be connected to the first planar panel and the second planar panel and to cover a top portion of the support structure, a first side cover configured to be connected to the first planar panel and the second planar panel and substantially perpendicular to the top cover, and a second side cover configured to be offset from the first side cover and configured to be connected to the first planar panel and the second planar panel.

Container (1) comprising a substantially tubular metal container body (2) having a top opening defined by an outwardly curled edge, and a bottom opening. The container further comprises a peelable lid (9) bonded to an upper surface of said curled edge to close said top opening in an airtight manner, the outermost edge of the peelable lid not extending beyond an outermost extent of said curled edge, and a metal closure (4) comprising a generally planar centre panel (8) and a downwardly extending sidewall (7) depending from a peripheral region of the centre panel and terminating with an inwardly or outwardly directed fold (12), and a plurality of features (5) pressed into the sidewall at respective circumferentially spaced locations between said peripheral region and the fold, wherein the radial inward extent of the features is greater than that of the fold. The closure and the container body have relative dimensions to allow the features to pass over said curled edge during closure and to be retained beneath the curled edge to resist removal of the closure.

A container assembly includes a container body having a side wall encircling an axis, and a metal end for attachment to an upper edge of the side wall via heat-sealing. The outer peripheral region is shaped prior to application to the container body such that an annular channel is defined between an inner chuck wall and an outer chuck wall of the metal end. The metal end is pushed straight onto the side wall such that the upper edge of the side wall is received into the channel. The surfaces of the side wall and the opposing surfaces of the chuck walls have heat-sealable material thereon. The metal end is heated to melt and fuse the heat-sealable layers, thereby sealing the metal end onto the side wall. The metal end is shaped such that the free edge of the outer chuck wall is not exposed.

A food or beverage container having a body portion or an end portion that includes a metal substrate with a coating composition disposed thereon. The coating composition includes a water-dispersible acrylic linear block copolymer made by surfactant-free heterogeneous radical polymerization (SFHRP). The block copolymer imparts a desirable combination of flexibility and corrosion resistance to the coating composition, and the substantial absence of surfactants during polymerization contributes to other desirable properties including good blush resistance.

The present invention relates to a metal-box (14) comprising a metal frame (15), at least one metal wall (13) and at least one metal bottom plate (12), wherein the metal frame (15) comprises a metal profile (1), wherein the metal profile (1) comprising an elongated element (2) and a cross-section (3), wherein the cross-section (3) comprising (i) a cavity (4), and the cavity (4) is enclosed by a first flange (5), a bottom part (6) and a first side (8) of a second flange (7), and (ii) a recess (9) enclosed by a second side (10) of the second flange (7) and the bottom part (6).
