A substrate container includes a container body having a storage space and an opening in communication with the storage, a door body disposed at the opening, a limiter disposed on the door body and facing the opening, a supporter disposed on one side of the storage space, and at least two elastic buffer elements tightly disposed between the door body and the limiter and between the supporter and the container body, respectively. A door assembly of a substrate container, a support assembly of a substrate container and an elastic buffer element used in a substrate container are further provided. The elastic buffer element is applied between any two rigid elements in the substrate container to provide a buffer force and an appropriate frictional force, so as to alleviate the problems of impact and dust generated between the rigid elements.

A process container includes flanges defining a plurality of slots. At least one of the flanges includes a tightener configured to contact a disc or wafer when the disc or wafer is inserted into one of the plurality of slots defined by said at least one of the plurality of flanges. The tightener projects outwards from said at least one of the plurality of flanges into said one of the plurality of slots. The tightener includes a tapered portion where a cross-sectional thickness of the at least one tightener increases along an insertion direction of the disc or wafer into said one of the plurality of slots. The tightener can include one continuous slope or curve. The tightener can include a chamfer. The tightener has a reduced contact area and a smooth transition as it extends from the flange, reducing rubbing and the corresponding particle shedding when discs or wafers are inserted into, removed from, or moving while stored within the process container.

A storage container with improved strength and airtightness, and a method for manufacturing the storage container are provided. The storage container includes, as a functional resin member, an insert component for a container body insert-molded with a molding material containing predetermined resin. The functional resin member is a side wall plate with support pieces. The side wall plate has a thick portion having at least a thickness of a side wall of the container body, and a thin joint portion formed around the thick portion, to be interposed into and joined to a peripheral wall of the container body. Most of the peripheral wall and the thin joint portion are engaged and joined to enlarge their contact area to eliminate a decrease of the mechanical strength and leakage around the peripheral edge of the side wall plate and prevent the peripheral wall from parting from the side wall plate.

A modularized large-sized carrier includes at least two body modules, at least one hermetic seal component and a back board. The body modules are connected to each other peripherally and arranged in a depth direction. The hermetic seal component surrounds junctions of the body modules. The back board is disposed behind the last one of the body modules. The modularized large-sized carrier overcomes existing carrier size limitations otherwise caused by injection molding machines and continuously expands in the depth direction to thereby enlarge the airtight storage space of the carrier.

This disclosure describes a system for protection of the bottle or carboys during freezing, storage or transport, and thawing. The system described herein is designed to enable high heat transfer rates under certain conditions, thus enabling to freeze or thaw the biopharmaceutical solutions at optimal rates, without disassembling the protective structure. This disclosure describes a system configured to receive a bottle or carboy filled with biopharmaceutical solutions for freezing, transport and thawing. This system comprises five main parts: a lid; a top cover; a multi-shape compatible top holder; a multi-shape compatible bottom holder and a bottom cover. This system has an opening in the bottom below the container that allows air to be driven through the walls of the bottle and through a side vent. The airflow passage in the system, allows the use of the system for freezing (cold air) or thawing (hot air) while providing physical protection.

The disclosure is directed to a package for containing a plurality of substantially rectangular assay plates, each plate having a peripheral flange. In one embodiment, the package comprises a cavity having extending therein one or more sloped buttress elements spaced across at least a portion of a top corner, and one or more adjacent protrusions extending from the bottom and at least partially up one or both sidewalls, each set of protrusions forming grooves therebetween into which fit the flanges of respective assay plates. The package can comprise a transparent polymer through which product information located on the assay plates can be read or scanned.

The invention discloses a substrate container which includes a casing and a tray. The tray is detachably connected to the casing, such that the casing can be placed on a loading interface of a loading apparatus through the tray. The tray has a top, a bottom and a guide hole, the top of the tray has a guide surface proximate to the guide hole and is configured to receive a restriction mechanism from the loading interface. The guide surface has a texture formed thereon and adapted for reducing friction between the guide surface and the restriction mechanism.

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for accommodating copper foil. The apparatus includes an accommodation body in which an accommodation space for accommodating copper foil wound on a core is provided, a first support portion coupled to the accommodation body to support one side of the core, a second support portion coupled to the accommodation body to support the other side of the core, a first damper portion coupled to the first support portion to be disposed between the first support portion and the one side of the core, and a second damper portion coupled to the second support portion to be disposed between the second support portion and the other side of the core, wherein the first damper portion includes a first damper body coupled to the first support portion and a plurality of first damper protrusions protruding from the first damper body.

A container for holding food item(s). The container having a base, a cover, and a tray. The base includes base receptacle(s), and an inner base volume is defined in each base receptacle. The tray includes tray receptacle(s), and each tray receptacle includes tab(s). An inner tray volume is defined in each tray receptacle of the tray receptacle(s) that is configured to receive a food item of the food item(s). The tray is positioned between the cover and the base when the container is in a closed state so each tray receptacle is received in the inner base volume defined a respective base receptable. Tab(s) are configured to move to an extended position when the container is in a closed state so that tab(s) contact the food item received in the inner tray volume defined in each tray receptacle, thereby restricting movement of the food item(s).
