Cargo Container
Examples include a cargo container for carrying items in an aircraft. The cargo container includes a first sidewall including a first length and a second sidewall including a second length extending transversely from the first sidewall. The first length is greater than the second length. The cargo container further includes a base sidewall extending from the first sidewall and the second sidewall, where the base sidewall is configured to support the cargo container on a cargo support surface of the aircraft. The cargo container further includes a lid configured to couple to the first sidewall, the second sidewall, or the base sidewall to at least partially cover a cavity formed by the first sidewall, the second sidewall, and the base sidewall.
RECONFIGURABLE VEHICLE BODY
A reconfigurable vehicle body having a main body including at least one elongate main beam, a load deck mounted relative to the at least one elongate main beam and at least one forward headboard structure at a forward end of the load deck is disclosed. At least two pairs of fixed posts provided in a rear portion of the load deck, one fixed post of each pair located at an opposed lateral side of the load deck and extending upwardly relative to the load deck, a wall-receiving assembly positioned relative to each of the fixed posts and at least one removable wall member locatable relative to at least a pair of wall-receiving assemblies to define at least one receiving compartment within the width of the load deck is present.

Bundle-drop roller
Embodiments are directed to improving transportation of tubular structures. A roller may have a housing having a vertical axis and one or more upper flanges. The one or more upper flanges may have an upper surface that is transverse and non-perpendicular to the vertical axis of the housing. Optionally, the upper surface may be curved. The roller may have one or more wheels that are rotatably coupled to the housing and that extend downward from the housing.

Bulk fluid storage container
A bulk fluid storage container has a top wall structure and a bottom wall structure held in spaced relation by a side wall structure. An internal baffle assembly is disposed in the fluid storage volume between the side wall structure for reducing fluid sloshing. A fill port formed in the top wall structure has a fill flange for coupling with a source of the fluid. A vent port formed in the top wall structure has a pressure vacuum value. A drain port formed in the side wall structure in a lower region adjacent the gutter region has a drain valve assembly is coupled to the drain port. A frame assembly includes an upper rectangular frame member and a lower rectangular frame member arranged in spaced relation by a plurality of post; wherein the frame assembly surrounds and supports the fluid storage vessel.

Reusable shipping container with charging interface
The present invention is directed to a shipping container configured to charge a plurality of power supplies associated with a plurality of aerosol delivery devices. The shipping container comprises at least one tray comprising at least one first charging interface configured to provide energy to the plurality of power supplies to charge the power supplies. In some embodiments, the at least one first charging interface is configured to wirelessly charge the plurality of power supplies. In other embodiments, the at least one first charging interface is configured to charge the plurality of power supplies via one or more physical connections. In some embodiments, the at least one first charging interface is configured to electrically couple to at least one local power storage unit. In some embodiments, the at least one first charging interface is configured to electrically couple to at least one external power source.
MODULAR PORTABLE STORAGE CONTAINER SYSTEM
A modular portable storage container system includes a storage container having first and second sections. The first section defines a first partial volume of storage space and the second section defines a second partial volume of storage space. The system further includes a lock mechanism with a lock arm, lock handle, and pivot shaft defining an axis of rotation. The lock arm and handle are fixed for common rotation with the pivot shaft. The arm extends radially outward from the pivot shaft to a roller assembly. A lock track is disposed within the second section and extends from a fluted open portion to a closed end, with a continuous track portion disposed therebetween. The first and second sections are movable between at least closed and open positions. In the closed position, the roller assembly engages with the lock track and retains the first section in contact with the second portion.
