A storage bin including a box and a lid. The box includes a bottom and at least four walls extending from the bottom to an upper rim. The lid is configured to be positioned relative to the rim such that the lid closes the box. The lid defines a planar lid surface with an upwardly extending peripheral raised edge thereabout. A plurality of friction feet may be secured to the box bottom. The lid may include at least one lock assembly. The lid may include a label assembly.

A vessel, e.g., a bowl, suited for holding water or foodstuff for use as a pet bowl or human kitchen houseware. The vessel is scaled for use by pets or humans. Generally, this means that an inner surface of the vessel defines a volumetric space of 60 cubic centimeters to 30 liters for holding water or foodstuff. The bowl has a water level, and, at the water level, the surface area of the bowl being 56 cm to 900 square cm. To facilitate lifting and gripping by one or two human hands of a user, the vessel's outer surface includes one or more graspable elements disposed between the top and bottom of the vessel. Each graspable element is configured to receive one or more fingers of a user so that the user can grasp or otherwise engage the graspable element and lift the bowl from a surface when the bowl is upright on the surface.

A container assembly for carrying and pouring flowable materials and that includes a bucket that is defined by a closed bottom portion, an upstanding side portion, and an upper rim area that at least partially defines an open top. A handle is attached near the upper rim area and a plurality of gripping surfaces are located in the closed bottom portion of the bucket and/or defined by the side portion to permit multiple means of gripping the container. The container includes one or more posts or feet that facilitate a stacked and only partially nested association between containers oriented in a vertically stacked configuration.

The disclosed invention is a detachable hinge assembly, which, in one embodiment, can be employed on a cooler to provide a cooler with a removable lid. The hinge assembly includes a first attachment bar and second attachment bar coupled to the cooler body and lid, respectively, and are connected through a releasable hinge assembly which pivotably couples to both the first and second attachment bars. The releasable hinges each have an end flange constructed to pivotably couple to the first and second attachment bars and a projection having both a clip and a receiving portion. The clip from each projection is adapted to releasably couple to the receiving portion of the corresponding projection.

A deck box includes individual panels and a lid that are able to be assembled to one another without the need for external hardware. A bottom panel has guides or rails extending along the length of the bottom panel at opposing edge regions thereof. A pair of side panels are provided with guides or rails to enable sliding engagement and assembly of the side panels with the bottom panel. The side panels are also provided with guides or rails that extend toward the bottom panel when the side panels are assembled to the bottom panel. Front and rear panels are provided with guides or rails so that each of the front and rear panel can assemble between the assembled side panels, sliding into engagement in a direction toward the bottom panel. A lid has an integrally-molded hinge member that engages with an integrally-molded hinge member of the rear panel.

In one example, a lid configured for use with a container includes an upper surface that is generally circular in shape, and further includes a side wall with an annular configuration, the side wall intersecting the upper surface to define an edge of the lid. A grip element is defined in the upper surface and sized and configured to be grasped by one or more fingers of a user, and the grip element includes a grip portion that is set back a distance from the edge of the lid. Finally, a tab is provided that is attached to the side wall of the lid by an elastically deformable standoff element.

A storage box having a fill viewer created when the negative space of the box flaps are combined when the flaps are folded to close the box.

An invention including a bottle container of a pinch-grip type of synthetic resin blow-molded product and which includes a body of a bottle container, and a grip including a pair of right and left deep-recessed grip portions, formed by concaving both side wall portions of the body of the bottle container, a rear wall portion of the body disposed at a position rearward from the deep-recessed grip portions in a front-back direction, wherein each grip portion includes a caved in recessed wall, vertical side walls positioned facing each other across the wall, and lateral walls disposed at upper and lower ends of the wall, so that surrounding walls as a whole is formed by vertical walls and lateral walls that surround the recessed wall, and wherein the vertical side walls have an angle of gradient which is set at a right angle relative to a transverse center line extending horizontally.

The present disclosure relates generally to containers. In at least one embodiment, the disclosed containers include a nestable structure that can facilitate stacking while limiting reliance on satellite rings. For example, in certain embodiments, a container includes a nestable corner structure with a series of nestable portions. Thus, in these embodiments, more containers can be stacked together in a smaller space, such that shipping and manufacturing processes are more efficient and less costly than with traditional containers.

A container having a center portion and two side portions each situated at an angle to the center portion and extending in opposite directions such that the a left half of the container is substantially identical to a right half of the container but rotated 180 degrees to form a Z shaped profile of the container. This Z shaped profile allows containers to be stacked upon each other to provide space savings in storage and shipping of the container and the container when filled with liquid.
