Collapsible reusable watertight carrying cases are provided in sizes varying from small containers to large sealable container bins on wheels, to provide large quantities of water to remote areas not served by public water supplies, or where water supplies are unavailable because of weather disasters. The cases are assembled or disassembled from a joined flat space-saving configuration to a functioning case and vice-versa. The sides of the cases are erected progressively by hand by interlocking elements at the corners. The panels also disassemble progressively by being manually pulled apart. When folded into a flat storage or shipping configuration, the panels stay together, resisting unfolding by virtue of snaps which are either molded into the panels or bonded to them. The carrying cases are resistant to water, dirt, bacteria, molds, allergens, and inclement weather.

A container for holding bulk solids includes a tubular body extending at least partially around an interior of the container to form a tubular body having a top end and a bottom end, at least one sealing member positioned in the interior of the container, the at least one sealing member sealably engaging at least a portion of the tubular body, a reclosable lid attached to a top portion of the tubular body with an adhesive strip to form a closed top end of the container, and a bottom plate attached to the bottom end of the tubular body to form a closed bottom end of the container.

The current invention discloses a container for the transport of piece goods, whereby said container is selectably configurable between a folded configuration and an expanded operational configuration. Said container is comprised of a container body which has two pairs of side panels defining an internal compartment, a bottom and an open top surface. Said open top surface is closable by a lid attached to a side panel of said container and enclosing at least partially edges of those side panels not connected to said lid, characterized in that said lid is attached to said side panel by a hinge portion, whereby the container body in said folded configuration is rotatable along a longitudinal axis along said hinge portion to allow at least partial stowage in said lid.

An apparatus for carrying articles comprising an outer shell extending between top and bottom ends, an attachment for securing the outer shell to a support; and an inner sleeve extending between the top and bottom ends of the outer shell.

A container includes: a pair of container elements to be mated to constitute the container; and a hinge connecting the pair of container elements with mating surfaces of the pair of container elements pointing unidirectionally, wherein at least a part of the hinge is pulled when the pair of container elements are mated, the hinge has a V-shaped groove including a pair of inner surfaces, and a thickness gradually decreasing toward a bottom of the V-shaped groove, the bottom of the V-shaped groove is pulled when the pair of container elements are mated, the hinge has two of the V-shaped grooves, the hinge includes a protrusion located between the two V-shaped grooves, the protrusion has a vertex located lower than the mating surfaces, and of the four inner surfaces of the two V-shaped grooves, two inner surfaces farthest from each other are partially brought into contact with each other.

An apparatus for carrying articles comprising an outer shell extending between top and bottom ends, an attachment for securing the outer shell to a support; and an inner sleeve extending between the top and bottom ends of the outer shell.

Collapsible reusable watertight carrying cases are provided in sizes varying from small containers without wheels to large sealable container bins on wheels, to provide large quantities of water or other supplies and cargo. The cases are assembled or disassembled from a joined flat space-saving configuration to a functioning case and vice-versa. The sides of the cases are erected progressively by hand by interlocking self sealing reciprocating channel and channel engaging members elements at the corners. The panels also disassemble progressively by being manually pulled apart. Optional foldable locking latches provide stability and aesthetics to the carrying case. When folded into a flat storage or shipping configuration, the panels stay together, resisting unfolding by virtue of snaps which are either molded into the panels or bonded to them. The carrying cases are resistant to water, dirt, bacteria, molds, allergens, and inclement weather.

Collapsible reusable carrying cases are provided in sizes varying from small food containers to large push cart bins on casters. The cases are assembled or disassembled from a joined flat space-saving configuration to a functioning case and vice-versa. All parts that make up a carrying case do not separate from the carrying case and no parts can be removed. The cases are formed from rigid plastic panels, and are assembled or disassembled without tools. The sides of the cases are erected progressively by hand by interlocking elements at the corners. The panels also disassemble progressively by being manually pulled apart. When folded into a flat storage or shipping configuration, the panels stay together, resisting unfolding by virtue of snaps which are either molded into the panels or bonded to them. The carrying cases are resistant to water, dirt, bacteria, molds, allergens, and inclement weather.

The invention relates to a receptacle with a container (1) having at least one opening (2) and a lid (5) for closing the opening (2), which is connected to the container (1) via an elastically deformable hinge.

In order to provide an environmentally safe receptacle, the container (1) is made of fiber material and has a biodegradable or bioinert coating, wherein the lid (5) is made of biodegradable thermoplastic material and a flexible hinge strip (6) of fiber material attached to the lid (5) is bonded to the container (1).
