Foldable structures
A reusable and washable storage device comprising a plurality of sides and a plurality of hinges. Each the plurality of hinges are placed between at least two of the plurality of sides and comprise an axis of rotation. The plurality of sides rotate about the axis of rotation from a first position to a second position.
Container with Spray Valve
The present disclosure provides a dispenser for pressurized material. In an embodiment, the dispenser for pressurized material includes a container half having an exposed edge and a closure member at the exposed edge. The container half has a cup half in an interior top portion. The dispenser includes a reciprocal container half having a reciprocal exposed edge and a reciprocal closure member at the reciprocal exposed edge. The reciprocal container half has a reciprocal cup half in an interior top portion. The closure member and the reciprocal closure member matingly engage along the exposed edges to attach the container half to the reciprocal container half and form a container. The dispenser includes a sleeve bag on valve (SBoV) assembly in an interior of the container. The SBoV assembly includes a valve seat. The cup and the reciprocal cup support the valve seat to secure the SBoV assembly in the container.

Bulk bin
A bulk bin has a perimeter wall and first and second floor panels hingedly joined to the perimeter wall. Each floor panel is selectively foldable from a stowed position to a deployed position. In some embodiments, the first floor panel has a first tab and a first hole and the second floor panel has a second tab and a second hole. The first tab is configured for being selectively received in the second hole for interlocking engagement with the second floor panel, and the second tab is configured for being selectively received in the first hole for interlocking engagement with the first floor panel to secure the first and second floor panels in the deployed position. In certain embodiments, the perimeter wall includes multiple wall portions foldably joined together. At least two of the wall portions are joined at a fold joint of at least three spaced apart vertical creases.
Foldable containers with improved mobility
Systems and methods are disclosed for foldable containers with improved mobility. In one embodiment, an example foldable container may include a first container wall having a frame and a panel coupled to the frame, a second container wall coupled to the first container wall, the second container wall configured to rotate outwards with respect to the first container wall, a third container wall coupled to the first container wall, and a fourth container wall. The fourth container wall may include a first portion coupled to the second container wall, where the first portion rotates with respect to the second container wall, and a second portion coupled to the third container wall. The foldable container may include a latch configured to secure the first portion to the second portion, where the latch has a handle and a spring that biases that handle towards a front of the foldable container.
TOOL AND A METHOD FOR COMPRESSION MOLDING
A compression molding tool comprises a cavity member (101), a core member (102), and a compression system (103) for moving the core member towards the cavity member from a first position to a second position where the cavity and core members define a shape of an element produced by compression molding. The cavity member comprises a first projection (105) having a first side surface (106), and the core member comprises a second projection (107) having a second side surface (108) parallel to the first side surface. The first and second side surfaces are against or near each other when the core member is in the second position. Thus, a through hole, or a thin wall that can be punctured to form a through hole, is formed between cavities formed by the first and second projections in the element produced by compression molding.

In some embodiments, the first floor panel has a first tab and a first hole and the second floor panel has a second tab and a second hole. The first tab is configured for being selectively received in the second hole for interlocking engagement with the second floor panel, and the second tab is configured for being selectively received in the first hole for interlocking engagement with the first floor panel to secure the first and second floor panels in the deployed position. In certain embodiments, the perimeter wall includes multiple wall portions foldably joined together. At least two of the wall portions are joined at a fold joint of at least three spaced apart vertical creases.
Collapsible tray
The present invention relates to a collapsible tray with foldable sides that includes a trapezoid panel and two triangle panels. Panel connectors secure together in a movable manner each triangle panel to the trapezoid panel. Side panels are movably interconnected at each end to the foldable side. A base is movably interconnected to each foldable side and each side panel. In use, when a collapsing force is applied to the trapezoid panel or the side panel, the adjacency between the trapezoid panel and the triangle panel folds inward allowing the foldable side, and the side panels to fold flat on top of the base. A drawer is slidably connected to the base where a user can slide the drawer out from the bottom to access contents inside and slide the drawer back under the base for storage. The drawer is useable by the user when the collapsible tray is closed.
Foldable and/or collapsible plastic/composite utility enclosure
A lid for a utility enclosure having a front end, a rear end, a right side, a left side, a top lid portion, and a bottom, defining an interior. Large reinforcement ribs are on an interior surface of the top lid portion and form a lattice-type structure. Small reinforcement ribs are mounted in spaces formed by the lattice type structure. The lid is made of glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene and metal bars or rebar are embedded in the large reinforcement ribs. The metal bars are positioned near a bottom of the large reinforcement ribs and spaced above the bottom. The physical structure of the lid and the lid's composition, consisting essentially of glass fiber-reinforced polypropylene, are constructed so that the lid withstands up to 33,750 pounds of force without breaking or being deformed.
Structural component of a modular system and assembly unit for use in storage or transportation systems
A structural component is provided for use in storage systems, bundling systems, transportation systems, or structural installations. The structural component is plate-shaped or shell-shaped and includes at least three sides, where at least two sides are provided with a coupling unit for structurally connecting the structural component to a further component. The coupling unit includes at least one first locking element and at least one correspondingly designed second locking element. For connecting the structural component to the further component, the first and the second locking element are displaceable relative to one another from a release position into a first locking position upon moving the first locking element or the second locking element in a first locking direction and are displaceable relative to one another from the release position into a second locking position upon moving the first locking element or the second locking element in a second locking direction.
