Provided is a crate coupleable to another crate or to a variety of carrying platforms. The crate having a base and side-walls upwardly extending from the base, of which at least two opposite side-walls are locking side-walls extending parallel to one another, each of the locking side-walls is configured at a top or a bottom surface thereof with at least one sliding locking slot extending parallel to said locking side-wall and defining a primary sliding path, the at least one sliding locking slot is configured with at least one arresting rib and an uncovered portion extending behind the at least one arresting rib, another one of the top or a bottom surface of the locking side-walls is configured with at least one locking tongue disposed parallel to said locking side-wall and configured for sliding arresting with a respective locking slot.

A folding box (100), comprising: a bottom plate (1), and a pair of first side plates (2) and a pair of a second side plates (3) capable of being folded with respect to the bottom plate (1). The first side plates (2) and the second side plates (3) are releasably interlocked via a locking mechanism (4). The locking mechanism (4) comprises a handle (41), a locking member (42), and a guidance feature (31). When the first side plates (2) and the second side plates (3) are in a locked state, the handle (41) restricts the position of the locking member (42), thus limiting the movement of the locking member (42), when the handle (41) restricts the position of the locking member (42), thus limiting the movement of the locking member (42), when the handle (41) moves and provides the locking member (42) space required for movement of the locking member (42), the locking member (42) cooperates with the guidance feature (31) to drive the locking member (42) to move so as to unlock the same. When the folding box is empty and recycled, the side plates are easy and convenient to unlock, and are difficult to be unlocked by an accidental triggering when using.

A storage device includes a base, and a number of side panels selectively coupled to the base. Each of the side panels include a protrusion. The base includes a number of voids defined therein. The protrusions, once inserted into the voids, restrict movement of the side panels relative to the base in at least two coordinate directions.

A drink cup includes a body formed to include an interior region providing a fluid-holding reservoir and a brim. The brim is coupled to the body to form an opening into the interior region. The body includes a floor and a sidewall that extends away from the floor. The drink cup further includes a body-strengthening system coupled to the body.

The present invention relates to a medicine unit container for use in a medicine unit delivery device comprising a container body, divided into a number of storeys by means of separating planes; wherein each storey is provided with a rotatable compartment housing, the compartments of which each cover at least a position equidistant in radial direction from a centre of the compartment housing and wherein all compartment housings are rotatable about a central axis extending through their centres and each of the separating planes comprises at least one passage between adjacent storeys, which passage covers the same radial position as the compartments so that there is a rotation angle of a compartment housing in which a compartment is aligned with the passage.

A method of manufacturing a container made of metal, including a bottom portion and a body portion, being open on an upper face side, and having a shape in which the body portion expands outward toward the upper face side. The method includes a stretch forming step of expanding a diameter of a stepped cup body made of metal by operating a diameter expanding punch having a tapered pressing portion that is smaller in diameter than an inner diameter of the large-diameter cylindrical portion and larger in diameter than an inner diameter of the small-diameter cylindrical portion of the stepped cup body along a cylindrical axis direction from an opening side of the large-diameter cylindrical portion, in which the stretch forming step is performed at least once.

A low depth crate for containers includes a base with a top surface and a bottom surface, and a wall structure extending upwardly around a periphery of the base. A plurality of recesses are defined in the bottom surface and arranged to engage containers loaded in a like crate therebeneath when in a stacked configuration. The plurality of recesses includes primary recesses capable of engaging at least two different sizes of containers, each primary recess having a first support region with a first depth with respect to the bottom surface and a second support region with a second depth with respect to the bottom surface, the first depth greater than the second depth. The wall structure may include four adjoined side walls each having a handle formed in a central portion of the side wall and extending upwardly above an upper rim of the side wall.

A molded container of solid continuous construction having a floor and contiguous upstanding sidewalls angling outward and upward to a surrounding upper lip. Below the upper lip the floor and sidewalls surround an inner cavity adapted to receive food. The sidewalls include at least three outwardly-directed lugs that are thicker from an inner surface to an outer surface thereof than a nominal wall thickness of the remainder of the sidewalls. The sidewall at the location of each lug having an inner surface which is contiguous and uninterrupted relative to the inner surface of adjacent portions of the sidewall. Consequently, a first container may be stacked and nested within a second container such that the lugs on the first container contact the inner surface of the second container at the location of the lugs on the second container and maintain a predetermined axial spacing between the first and second 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. The container includes recesses and protrusions which enable the container to stack in two orientations generally perpendicular to each other.

A low depth crate for containers includes a base with a top surface and a bottom surface, and a wall structure extending upwardly around a periphery of the base. A plurality of recesses are defined in the bottom surface and arranged to engage containers loaded in a like crate therebeneath when in a stacked configuration. The plurality of recesses includes primary recesses capable of engaging at least two different sizes of containers, each primary recess having a first support region with a first depth with respect to the bottom surface and a second support region with a second depth with respect to the bottom surface, the first depth greater than the second depth. The wall structure may include four adjoined side walls each having a handle formed in a central portion of the side wall and extending upwardly above an upper rim of the side wall.
