A shipping container includes an insulated base, an upper perimeter portion including one or more securing mechanisms, insulated side panels, and an insulated lid. Each of the insulated side panels is movable between a respective first position and a respective second position, wherein the shipping container is in the first configuration when all of the insulated side panels are in the first positions and collapses into the second configuration when all of the side panels are in the second positions. The insulated lid is removably attachable for selectively closing and accessing an internal storage volume. Each of the securing mechanisms is configured to removably secure the upper perimeter portion to the insulated base when the shipping container is in the second configuration. Each of the securing mechanisms is also configured to removably secure the insulated lid to the upper perimeter portion in both the first and the second configurations.

A liftable hinge mechanism includes a base, a connecting component and a pin. The base has a narrow slot. The connecting component has an axle hole. The pin slidably passes through the narrow slot and rotatably inserts into the axle hole. The connecting component can be rotated and/or shifted relative to the base via the pin. A reciprocating engaging mechanism includes a shaft, a rotary plate, a first engaging component and a linkage module. The rotary plate is rotatably disposed on the shaft. The linkage module is connected between the rotary plate and the first engaging component. Rotation of the rotary plate drives the linkage module to move the first engaging component into a locking mode or an unlocking mode. The liftable hinge mechanism and the reciprocating engaging mechanism are applied to an airtight device with a housing and a cover capable of being folded and unfolded.

A vacuum storage container includes a container body and a lid with a silicone ring operably positioned therebetween. A cavity is disposed in the lid, the cavity being sized and shaped to receive a vacuum device therein. A central through hole is provided in the cavity which enables air to enter and exit the container body. A silicone sealing plug is set inside the central through hole. The sealing plug body runs through the central through hole, an upper end of the lid is connected to the sealing plug top, and a lower end of the lid is connected to the sealing plug bottom. When the vacuum device is in operation, the silicone sealing plug is moved to the open state, so that air inside the vacuum storage container passes through first and second circumferential clearances, and between the lower end of the sealing plug top and the upper end of the lid, to discharge out of the vacuum storage container.

A package for a medical device such as an intermittent catheter has a case with open and closed ends. A hinge connects a cap to the case to permit movement of the cap between open and closed positions. A seal connected to one of the cap and case is engageable with the other to maintain a sterile environment inside the package. The seal can be repeatedly made and broken whenever the user closes or opens the cap. The case includes a pair of slots at the open end. A pair of latches is formed in the cap. The latches fit into the slots to prevent lateral forces from distorting the cap when the cap is closed. A first use indication label spans a depression in the outer contour of a closed cap and case, assuring visual confirmation of breach of the label upon first opening of the cap.

A lid for use with a beverage container. The lid has a body with a drink opening, a drink opening stopper operable to transition between a closed position and an opened position, and a lock actuator manually rotatable between a locking position preventing the drink opening stopper from transitioning from the closed position to the opened position when the lock actuator is in the locking position and an unlocking position permitting the drink opening stopper to transition from the closed position to the opened position when the lock actuator is in the unlocking position.

A container having a removable drain sensor configured to monitor one or more container parameters and/or one or more external container parameters. The drain sensor being configured to communicate with a remote device to enable remote monitoring of one or more of the parameters.

A can comprises a can body (10) and a lid (4). The can body is manufactured using only a single homogeneous piece of material and has an edge that defines a top opening into the can. The can body also has an inwardly directed bead (23), which extends around the body, is adjacent to the can body edge, and defines an inwardly facing sealing surface (24) of substantially constant transverse cross-sectional dimension along an axial extent. The lid defines an outwardly directed sealing surface which abuts the inwardly facing sealing surface presented by the inwardly directed bead in order to seal the lid to the can body. An alternative can body has an inwardly directed pinched or collapsed bead which defines an upwardly facing sealing surface (34) for engagement with a downwardly facing sealing surface of a can lid. The alternative can body additionally has an inwardly directed bead (35) between the can body edge and the pinched or collapsed bead. An outer brim (42) of the lid is configured to be retained between the two beads of the alternative can body.

The present invention relates to a storage container comprising a container body (18), a lid (16) placed on the container body, and an actuation apparatus configured to actuate the lid (16) to move between a closed position where the container is in the closed state and a release position where the container is in the ready to open state. One or more body cam surfaces (1852) are arranged on an outer surface of a side wall of the container body (18), and one or more lid cam surfaces (1642) are arranged on an inner surface of a neck portion of the lid in such a manner that the body cam surfaces (1852) are configured to oppose the corresponding lid cam surfaces (1642). The lid (16) is locked in the closed position by moving the lid in a first direction so as to bring the lid cam surfaces (1642) to abut on and engage with the body cam surfaces (1852), and the lid is moved to the release position by moving the lid in a second direction so as to disengage the lid cam surfaces (1642) from the body cam surfaces (1852). The mechanism for opening and closing the storage container is easy to manufacture, and simple and effortless to operate.

An insulated container having a canister can be sealed by a lid structure. The lid structure can be a multi-part insulated lid. The lid can include a vent configured to vent air from inside the canister. In addition, the container may be part of a container kit or container system where one or more inner containers, are nested and secured within the insulated container.

A container that includes: a body; a first opening at a first end of the body and a second opening at a second end of the body, where the second end of the body additionally includes a plurality of threads on an exterior surface of the body; a lid assembly capable of being affixed to the second opening, where the lid assembly includes a band, a lid, and a sealant; a cover to conceal the lid assembly.
