An article of manufacture and process for manufacturing a reusable stackable resilient container formed from lightweight materials and coated with a polyurea coating to provide structural support. An article of manufacture may be formed in the various dimensions and shape to enclose items and objects that are delicate and of high-value for shipping. The reusable stackable resilient container has advantages of a long service life, less weight, a lower cost of production, impact-resistant, impervious to environmental factors and other improved characteristics.

Closure devices and containers including the closure devices are provided herein. An exemplary closure device includes a frame defining an opening, a lid covering the opening and coupled to the frame so as to pivot about a pivot axis, a first locking feature, and at least one second locking feature. The first locking feature and the at least one second locking feature each have a latching hook and an undercut and are used to hold the lid in a closed position. In the closed position, the latching hook and undercut of the first locking feature are arranged between a first outer edge of the closure device and the opening. An upper rim of the first outer edge is located above an upper end of the latching hook. The first outer edge is designed to protect the latching hook from being operated in an unintended manner.

A fastener-free box with fast assembly is disclosed, comprising a baseboard, a front board, a rear board, a left board, a right board, and a cover board. An insert-connection structure that is configured to form an insert connection with a respective adjacent board is integrally formed on each of the board; any three perpendicular boards are configured to form an interlocking structure among them; and, a connection structure configured to couple with each other is integrally and individually formed on each of the cover board and the rear board. The structure of the box is simple. In addition, an interlocking structure can be formed after the box is assembled, enabling an even more robust box structure. Furthermore, the box is ideal for outdoor use as it is water proof.

The present invention is directed to a sewing basket for storing thread, pins, needles, scissors, buttons, snaps, measuring tapes, and other sewing tools and accessories. The present invention is further directed to a novel method of collapsing the size of the sewing basket for shipping, storage, and other purposes. The sewing basket of this invention includes a base, an upper frame and a collapsible side walls connecting the base and the upper frame. The basket may switch from a collapsed position with the side walls collapsed bringing the upper frame in proximity to the base and an extended position where the side walls are maintained in an extended position with a support.
