The present invention relates to a workpiece carrier for transporting or storing components of a drug delivery device, comprising: an array of accommodating recesses extending in a first lateral plane (x, y) and being adapted to receive at least one component of the drug delivery device, at least one stack forming structure adapted to mate with a corresponding stack forming structure of another workpiece carrier for mutually aligning workpiece carriers when stacked on one another, wherein the center of the at least one stack forming structure is arranged laterally offset with respect to the center of the array of accommodating recesses in at least one lateral direction, and wherein the stack forming structure comprises a surrounding edge comprising at least in sections a corrugated or undulated structure.

A multifunction appetizer tray system includes a tray base including a base member and an upward protruding peg with a knob; a plurality of trays, each including a tray member with a serving area and a drinking glass holder, which is a cut out in the tray member, such that each tray can be attached to the peg with the drinking glass holder and rotated to a stored position, and such that the trays can be used as a personal appetizer plate with a stemmed drinking glass positioned in the drinking glass holder.

A collapsible container includes a base having a base wall with a plurality of support surfaces separated by a longitudinal drainage channel and a plurality of lateral drainage channels intersecting the longitudinal drainage channel. The drainage channels are lower than the support surfaces. The base wall does not include any openings therethrough, so the drainage channels retain fluid leaking from products or packages in the container. The base may further include a plurality of troughs proximate edges of the base. The plurality of troughs are lower than the drainage channels. Walls are pivotably mounted to the base and are pivotable between an upright position and a collapsed position.

Contact lens packages are provided and each includes a base member having a cavity and a sealing member coupled to the base member. An unworn contact lens is provided in a packaging solution within the sealed cavity. The base member is a thermoplastic or other recyclable material. The base member includes at least one latch and at least one slot. The latch and slot are configured to connect to the slot and latch, respectively, of another base member, after the contact lenses are removed from the cavities. A recyclable thermoplastic contact lens assembly is also provided that includes empty contact lens package base members stacked and connected together. A method to recycle used contact lens package base members, such as by curbside recycling, is also provided.

The invention relates to a transport container (1) having an interior (4) which is delimited by a container base (2) comprising guide receptacles and by a container cover (3) which is opposite the container base (2) and from which there project guide bodies (6) on the cover outer side (5) opposite the interior. In order to create a transport container of the type described at the outset which can be stacked reliably and quickly with other transport containers, irrespective of their dimensions, for safe transport in such a way that additional transport securing by separate aids can be dispensed with, it is proposed that the guide bodies (6) having latching recesses (7) are arranged at a distance from one another in a grid, in that, for the releasable fastening of an adjacent transport container (1), a latching device is provided which has latching hooks (8) displaceable along an engagement direction for engagement in the latching recesses (7), and in that the guide bodies (6) within the guide receptacles are limited in the engagement direction.

A crate is configured for blind-stacking on an adjacent crate with side walls. The crate may include a bottom panel, end walls extending from the bottom panel, and side walls extending from the bottom panel and connected between the end walls. The side walls include a stacking rim on a top surface. The bottom panel may include guide ribs under the side walls, respectively, and positioned adjacent a forward end of the crate. The guide ribs may be sized and shaped to positively engage the side walls of the adjacent crate, and the guide ribs may be configured to prevent the side walls of the adjacent crate from deflecting outward under load. The crate facilitates blind-stacking and helps to minimize the effort for an operator to handle heavier loads.

Systems and methods for a modular warehouse system comprising: at least two modular stackable bins wherein said bins does not require structural support and may allow retrieval of at least one of said bins, regardless of its location in the pile, without changing said pile's order; at least two bin retrieval robots; at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium storing processor executable instructions on a computing device for warehouse management.

Provided is an expandable, modular tower planter having an internal vertical composting capability, and a method of assembling and using the same. Provided in various example embodiments is a modular composting garden container system comprising a base and a plurality of stackable rings forming a tower upon the base, including an optional base ring specially sized, shaped, and positioned to connect the tower to the base. A plurality of perforated, stackable tube sections are provided that are removably assembled into a compost tube assembly of selectable height and mounted within the interior of the tower and above the base. A plurality of holding struts are sized, shaped, and positioned to removably connect the compost tube assembly with the tower and to securely locate the compost tube assembly relative to the tower. Means are provided for recovering nutrient-rich drainage and selective recovery of compost material for reintroduction into the system.
