An acupuncture needle packaging container includes a container body having a plurality of storage recesses arranged side by side, each of the plurality of storage recesses configured to store an acupuncture needle, and a peripheral portion positioned higher than a bottom portion of the plurality of storage recesses; a sheet member configured to cover the container body; and a bendable portion crossing a longitudinal direction of a needle grip of the acupuncture needle. When the container body is bent, at the bendable portion, into an inverted V-shape and placed on a mounting surface, the container body has a rigidity to maintain the inverted V-shape. At a cross section of the bendable portion crossing the longitudinal direction, a side wall of the container body, with respect to a bottom portion of the container body, is oblique toward an outer side of the container body.

The present application is directed to a packaging container including a body including; a first portion including a coupling feature; a second portion including a coupling feature and complementary to the first portion; and a hinge portion coupling the first portion to the second portion adapted to move the packaging container from an open position to a closed position around a product, where the first portion and the second portion combine to form a void port in the closed position.

A collating system for rivets is provided that includes a rivet holder for supporting rivets in a predetermined pattern. In one form, the rivet holder includes a body having cavities for supporting the rivets therein. The rivet holder body includes a top plate member and a bottom plate member. The rivet holder has drive heads connected to the top plate member via frangible portions and the bottom plate member has retaining webs disposed below the drive heads. The top and bottom plates are secured together to capture heads of the rivets between the drive heads and retaining webs. The drive heads may be driven downward to drive the rivet heads from the rivet holder and into bores of a guide block with the retaining webs flexing to release the rivet head from the lower bottom plate member. A method of using the rivet collating system is also disclosed.

A pin cup that may be disposed within a shell, with the shell moving along a vertical axis to accommodate an open or closed position. In an open position the shell may lower, exposing the pins in the pin cup. In a closed position the shell may raise, so as not to disturb the pins in the pin cup, but to allow the lid to cover the pins in a position above the pins. A disclosed embedment (100) may comprise a lid (110) a shell (120) a pin cup (130) and other components. Outer surfaces of a pin cup may interact with inner surfaces of a shell so as to allow the pin cup to lock in a lower position, travel to an upper position, lock in the upper position and be toolessly removed from the shell.
