A corner support assembly for supporting a stack of containers includes a bar defining a corner and having a first end, a second end, an interior surface. A bracket is operatively coupled to the bar. The bracket includes a front end spaced away from the bar and a back end facing the interior surface of the bar. The bracket is disposed between the first end and the second end of the bar and oriented substantially perpendicular to the bar.

A secure container cover for a container and manufacturing method therefore are provided. The secure container cover includes an integrally molded body with an annular structure and a side wall. The annular structure includes a central void defined by an intermediate perimeter, and a graspable loop integrally formed with the annular structure is configured to reside within the central void. A tear initiation point is formed where the graspable loop joins the annular structure. A thin section extends from the tear initiation point to a bottom edge of the side wall. The graspable loop is detachably connected to the annular structure at a bridging section. The bridging section is configured to break when an upward biasing force is applied to the graspable loop, and the side wall is configured to separate along the thin section when the graspable loop is pulled away from the body of the secure container cover.

A stackable storage system includes a first container, a second container, and a latch moveable between a first position and a second position. The first container includes a projection extending away from the first container along a stacking direction. An edge portion extends from the projection along a plane substantially perpendicular to the stacking direction. The second container includes a recess. The recess receives the projection when the first container and the second container are stacked relative to one another in the stacking direction. The latch overlaps the edge portion with respect to the stacking direction while in the first position to secure the first container and the second container. The latch and edge portion are positioned in a non-overlapping manner relative to one another while the latch is in the second position to permit separation of the first container from the second container.

A molded container assembly including a pallet, a molded container, and a plurality of connection systems. The pallet supports the molded container thereon and includes stacking alignment structure for stacking the pallet on another molded container assembly. The molded container includes a tank portion, several leg supports, and several buttresses. The tank portion includes several curved sidewalls and a fill opening. The leg supports include lower sections and upper sections that extend above the fill opening for spacing a pallet stacked on top of the molded container above the fill opening. The upper sections include pallet engaging structure for engaging pallets of at least two different types. The buttresses extend between the tank portion and the leg supports. The connection systems include washers that allow for shrinkage and expansion between the molded container and the pallet in a number of directions.

A food carrying system comprises a plurality of food service items including at least one container and optionally one or more plates, drink carriers, and/or trays. At least one of the food service items includes opposing strap openings formed in an edge, encircling flange, or opposed flange handles thereof. A support band encircles the stack, passing through the strap openings, and ends thereof are affixed together to stabilize the stack and in embodiments providing a hand-hold for carrying the stack. The band can further extend through a strap opening provided in a separate handle, so that the stack can be carried using the handle. Strap openings can be provided on lids and/or bases of the containers. Strap openings can be closed ovals, or can be C-shaped, having open outer edges. Band ends can be joined by adhesive, hook-and-loop, knot tying, stapling, snaps, buttons, etc.

An insulated beverage holder device includes an insulated outer hollow cylinder, the insulated outer hollow cylinder including an open top and a bottom floor; an interior insulating hollow cylinder, the interior insulating hollow cylinder having an open top and an open bottom; and an insulating hollow liner, the insulating liner having an open top and an open bottom. The interior insulating hollow cylinder may be configured to be positioned inside the insulated outer hollow cylinder and attached to the insulated outer hollow cylinder. The insulating hollow liner may be attached to the interior insulating hollow cylinder and the insulating hollow liner to touch a first beverage container.

Described herein are multi-unit storage devices where two separate compartments are joined in a manner such that accessing one of the compartments does not compromise product held in the other compartment. The separate compartments may be vacuum or otherwise sealed such that when the seal is broken, access to the products contained therein is provided. Each of the compartments may be independently sealed.

A stacking system including a plurality of stacking trays, each stacking tray being configured to support a corresponding cookware is provided. Each stacking tray may include a bottom wall, a sidewall extending upward from the bottom wall, and a flange extending radially outward from an upper portion of the sidewall. A stackable cookware set having a plurality of stacking trays and a plurality of cookware is also provided.

Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to a nestable beverage can comprising a voluminous body defined by a top portion, a bottom portion and a sidewall, the top portion comprising a single opening into the voluminous body; a pull tab and semi-weakened surface covering the single opening, wherein the semi-weakened surface covering the opening remains attached to the top portion in an open position; a connection member positioned at the top of the can for connecting the can to an additional can; and a receiving ring shaped to couple with the connection member, the receiving ring shaped to attach to the base of the can.

An anti-theft device for an item having a peripheral shoulder, comprising two hinged portions each having a peripheral skirt provided with an edge capable of abutting under the peripheral shoulder, with the portions being hinged relative to a peripheral pivot; magnetically deactivatable locking means, which lock the two hinged portions in the closed position, and a detection means wherein the portions are made up of a stationary shell having a general cylindrical shape, the cross-section of which matches the cross-section of the item to be protected and a movable shell connected by a pivot, the stationary shell having a recess opening laterally to allow the insertion of the movable shell in closed position.
