An exemplary container for storing and transporting materials is disclosed. In various embodiments, the exemplary container includes one or more handles for assisting a user with lifting the exemplary container and/or controlling the exemplary container when pouring the exemplary container's contents. The one or more handles, in particular embodiments, are designed for minimum interference with other similar containers during transport. In some embodiments, certain handles are recessed within a cavity of a sidewall of the exemplary container.

A reconfigurable container is disclosed, the container being reconfigurable between a first configuration in which the container defines a receptacle for receiving an item, and a second configuration in which the container comprises a collapsed configuration for storage. The container comprises: a base and a wall which is arranged to extend around the base, the wall comprising at least two hingedly coupled wall portions, the base being hingedly coupled to a lower region of at least one wall portion, the wall further comprising a ledge disposed along a lower region thereof which is arranged to extend inwardly of the container, for supporting the base when the container is configured in the first configuration.

The present disclosure discloses a bowl. The bowl comprises a container and at least two flanges provided at opposite ends of the container. The at least two flanges are designed such that a user of the bowl can lift the bowl by grasping one of the flanges with minimum wrist movement.

A container capable of being placed in a stacking configuration with an identical second container includes a bottom, a top rim defining an open top, and a sidewall contiguous with and extending between the bottom and the top rim to define an inner space. The container further includes a first curved structure forming at least part of the top rim adjacent a first sidewall side and a second curved structure forming at least part of the top rim adjacent a second sidewall side and disposed opposite the first curved structure. The container also includes first and second channels molded into the bottom and at least partially protruding into the inner space, the channels being substantially parallel to each other and to first and second sidewall ends, wherein a distance between the first and second channels is substantially equal to a first distance between the first and second curved structures.

A device having multiple bowls for mixing colorants. The device includes lateral tabs adjacent each bowl for erasably labeling the tabs with the identification of the contents of the corresponding bowl. A centrally located timer mechanism is provided to time the colorant mixture setting times and a marker ring is rotatably provided around the timer mechanism to selectively indicate the bowl in use and being timed.

A carton (102) for packaging one or more articles (B) includes a plurality of walls including atop wall (142), a bottom wall (132), at least two vertical walls (112, 114) and a curved corner (113) between the vertical walls. An internal buttress structure (156) adjacent the top wall provides a curved support edge located apart from the top wall and providing a support edge for the curved comer. A handle strap (266) may be provided in the top wall.

A core tray is provided, comprising a body including at least one channel arranged to hold at least one core sample, wherein the body includes at least one set of handles arranged to, in use, allow a user to grip the core tray to assist in moving the core tray.

A container may include a body portion having opposing open and closed ends, and a trapezoid-shaped longitudinal side extending laterally between the open and closed ends. The open end may include a latch portion extending laterally and being opposite to the trapezoid-shaped longitudinal side. The container may also include a handle coupled to the open end, and switchingly coupled to the latch portion.

Described herein is a container for storing and dispensing a liquid. In one embodiment, the container for dispensing a liquid includes an upper region that is capable of being removed from the container, a sidewall region coupled or integrated with the upper region, and a lower region coupled or integrated with the sidewall region. The lower region includes an inner sloped surface within the container to provide an improved ability for dispensing the liquid from the container.
