A packaging and shipping system for dry charged batteries. The packaging system includes a shipping crate having a lower section that defines an open interior. The open interior is sized to receive a dry charged battery and a plurality of electrolyte bottles. Each of the electrolyte bottles contains a volume of electrolyte sufficient to fill one of the individual cells of the dry charged battery. Each of the electrolyte bottles are separately packaged and positioned within the open interior of the shipping crate. Upon reaching the desired destination, the shipping crate can be stored. When the dry charged battery is to be placed into use, the shipping crate is opened and the individual cells of the dry charged battery are filled with electrolyte from the plurality of electrolyte bottles. Once the dry charged battery has been activated, the empty electrolyte bottles can be placed back into the shipping crate and returned for recycling.

A foldable container, comprising a base (1) and two pairs of side plates (2). The two pairs of side plates (2) are hingedly connected to the edges of the base (1) and capable of being folded relative to the base (1). The foldable container further comprises connecting rods (5). Extending portions (21) are provided at the lower edges of at least one pair of the two pairs of side plates (2), protruding portions (13) which extend perpendicular to the base are provided on the corresponding edges of the base (1). The protruding portions are provided with opening portions (11). The opening portions (11) are opened facing the interior of the container and facing upper ends of the protruding portions (13). One end of the connecting rod (5) is pivotally connected to a bottom end of the opening portion (11), and the other end of the connecting rod (5) is slidably and rotatably connected to an upper end of the extending portion (21) in a direction perpendicular to the base. According to the foldable container, the opposite side plates can be conveniently and rapidly placed on the base horizontally by means of simple and reliable hinging structures, and the foldable container can be made into a thin-walled foldable container.

A weld stop element may be used in a hot plate welding process for bonding first and second plastic components. The weld stop element includes a weld stop post positioned between ribs of one or both of the components. The weld stop post is sized such that the weld stop post is not accessible by a heating element during a heating phase of the hot plate welding process. The weld stop post defines a stop position for when the first and second plastic components are pressed together after the heating phase.

Provided are: a package that is capable of transporting a composite material without generating fluff by suppressing shedding of carbon fibers from the composite material while holding the composite material at a fixed position during transportation; and a method for manufacturing the package. This package is prepared by stacking a composite material in the form of a plurality of plates on a mounting stand having a plurality of fitting holes, wherein: the composite material includes carbon fibers and a thermoplastic resin; the composite material is held by a plurality of holding members detachably attached to the fitting holes; of the contact surfaces of the composite material and the holding members, one of the contact surfaces of either the composite material or the holding members is curved, and the other contact surface is flat or curved.
