The platform includes a plurality of illuminable windows spaced apart from each other therealong. The display assembly further includes (b) a plurality of retractable tethers mounted to the platform in the interior of the housing. The tethers fasten corresponding display containers to the platform and urge the display containers to predetermined positions adjacent corresponding windows. The display assembly further includes (c) a lighting system including one or more interior light sources in the interior of the housing for illuminating the windows and display containers from below.

A display container includes (a) an enclosure having a container body and a lid mounted to the container body to enclose an interior chamber for storing botanical samples. The lid includes a lens defining an optical axis. The container body includes (i) an open top covered by the lid and defined by an opening, (ii) an interior base surface in the interior chamber and defined by an area smaller than that of the opening, the optical axis intersecting the base surface, and (iii) an interior sidewall surface sloping toward the base surface. The display container further includes (b) one or more scent ports extending through the lid, and (c) a port blocking member attached to the lid and movable between a closed position for blocking the scent ports and an open position for sampling an aroma of the botanical samples through the scent ports.

A display assembly having a top member connected to a bottom member. The top member has a top wall, sidewalls, and a flange having an outer edge that extends outwardly from the sidewalls. The bottom member has a bottom wall, sidewalls, a flange that extends outwardly from the sidewall, and an outer ridge on the flange that extends toward the top member.

Three-dimensional structure is provided that includes an internal structure and an external structure configured to receive the internal structure. The internal structure includes a plurality of walls forming an accommodation opening and a magnetic element configured to be affixed or located within on the plurality of walls. The external structure includes a set of two surfaces having a first configuration of protrusions where the two of two surfaces are adjoining. Another set of two surfaces have a second configuration of protrusions, where the surfaces form at least one opening configured to allow insertion and removal of the internal structure. The set of two surfaces and the another set of two surfaces are configured for mating engagement with another external structure having substantially the same configurations, where the first configuration and the second configuration are configured to couple to each other.

A monitoring and control system is provided. The system includes a plurality of sensors for obtaining readings associated with food items, such as temperature readings, freshness indications, and the like. The system is scalable and configurable with each sensor being capable of functioning as an individual sensor and/or as part of a grouping of sensors. The system is configured to obtain a variety of information, such as ambient air temperature, dwell time of food items, moisture levels, and the like, thereby enabling the system to recognize current and future concerns. The system provides audio and visual warnings and visual displays. In some embodiments, the system performs one or more physical operation based on one or more detected condition. The system is further configured to distinguish between accurate readings and inaccurate readings and/or to otherwise determine if an obstacle is preventing a sensor from obtaining an accurate reading.

Display case is provided that includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion has a rim defining an opening, a substantially cylindrical portion extending from the rim, and a curvilinear portion extending from the substantially cylindrical portion and terminating in a substantially flat portion. The lower portion includes a first surface having a first receiving portion formed therein, a sealing surface extending from the first surface and configured to be inserted into of the opening and engage with the substantially cylindrical portion, and a second surface opposite the first surface which forms a second receiving portion. The first receiving portion and the second receiving portion are substantially the same size and configured to receive a base of a toy.

A display case for an ornamental figurine. The display case includes a transparent cover, a post configured to receive the ornamental figurine, and a base configured to receive the post and to removably couple with the transparent cover. The transparent cover may include elements configured to receive a decorative backing. The base may include a gap configured to receive the decorative backing, such that the decorative backing extends from the base through the top of the cover. The base may include two parts, an upper part and a lower part, wherein the lower part is configured to receive the upper part. The upper part of the base may be open on the bottom or one side to allow a user to access the bottom of the post for removal. The post may include one or more holes configured to receive a pin backing of an ornament or a figurine.

A display device for selectively displaying an at least one multi-dimensional object is disclosed. In at least one embodiment, the display device provides an upper portion and a corresponding lower portion configured for selective engagement with the upper portion, thereby allowing the upper portion to remain in a substantially vertical orientation. The upper portion provides a first frame and an opposing second frame selectively engageable with the first frame. The first frame provides a first aperture, the first aperture having a first window panel spanning the first aperture. The second frame provides a corresponding second aperture sized for approximating the dimensions of the first aperture, the second aperture having a second window panel spanning the second aperture. The first and second apertures cooperate to define an enclosure therebetween for selectively receiving the at least one object therewithin.

A display assembly having a top member connected to a bottom member. The top member has a top wall, sidewalls, and a flange having an outer edge that extends outwardly from the sidewalls. The bottom member has a bottom wall, sidewalls, a flange that extends outwardly from the sidewall, and an outer ridge on the flange that extends toward the top member.

A showcase for preservation and display of objects. The showcase has a fixed casing and at least one openable panel made of glass, mounted through opening supports on the fixed casing, openable externally towards a first side of the showcase. The opening supports have an upper asymmetric quadrilateral and a lower asymmetric quadrilateral having the same geometry, respectively comprising a short upper rod and a long upper rod and a short lower rod and a long lower rod; the lengths of the short rods are equal to each other, as well as the lengths of the long rods are equal to each other. The opening takes place in a single roto-translation step. The asymmetric quadrilateral system formed by the uneven rods determines a roto-translational movement of the openable panel towards the first side of the showcase, so that the openable panel leaves the opening space completely free.
