A proppant discharge system has a container with an outlet positioned in a bottom thereof and a gate affixed adjacent the outlet so as to be movable between a first position covering the outlet to a second position opening the outlet, and a support structure having an actuator thereon. The container is removably positioned on the top surface of the support structure. The actuator is engageable with gate so as to move the gate from the first position to the second position. A conveyor underlies the container so as to receive proppant as discharged from the container through the outlet. The container can be a ten foot ISO container.

An example fluid container includes a main body and a support leg. The main body has a bottom wall and a sidewall that extends from the bottom wall. The bottom wall has a bottom wall first internal surface and the sidewall has a sidewall first internal surface, a sidewall second internal surface, and defines a passageway. The bottom wall first internal surface extends from the sidewall second internal surface toward the passageway at a downward slope. The support leg extends from the main body and is sized and configured to support the fluid container.

A drum assembly, including a generally cylindrical barrel portion having a proximal end and a distal end and defining an interior storage volume therebetween, and a generally conical bottom member connected to the barrel portion at the distal end and a generally flat top member connected to the barrel portion at the proximal end, wherein the barrel portion and the top and bottom members enclose the interior storage volume. The bottom member defines conical shape extending towards the distal end. A top chime is operationally connected to proximal end and extending away from the distal end, and a bottom chime is operationally connected to the distal end and extending away from the proximal end. A first plurality of spaced first ribs protruding from the top chime, wherein any two respective first ribs are spaced sufficiently far apart to accept a third first rib therebetween. A second plurality of spaced second ribs protruding from the bottom chime, wherein any two respective second ribs are spaced sufficiently far apart to accept a third second rib therebetween.

A keg includes a container 1 and a chime 3 fixed to each other by means of an adhesive. The container has a peripheral side wall 4, and a top wall formed with a central neck containing a valve fitting provided with a dip tube which extends into the container. A bottom wall 9 is formed with a central projection 10 defining an internal well inside the container which receives the lower end of the dip tube. The chime 3 has an inner hub 12 with a central opening 13, legs 14 which extend outwardly from the inner hub, and an outer skirt 15 joined to outer ends of the legs 14. The central opening 13 of the inner hub 12 receives the central projection 10, without fixation, to locate the inner hub against lateral movement. The central opening 13 may have the same internal profile as the outer profile of the central projection 10. In a modification the central opening 13 incorporates a plurality of slots which radiate outwardly to define a plurality of flexible inwardly-directed fingers which locate the inner hub and accommodate variations in the relative axial position of the central projection 10 and the inner hub 12.

The disclosure relates to a portable fuel container system which can facilitate extracting substantially all of the contents contained therein, without having to physically manipulate the container to do so, thereby minimizing spillage and waste. Embodiments of the fuel container system can include a fuel container enclosing a fluid cavity and a fluid dispenser. A collection channel may be recessed in the base section of the container and configured to gravitationally draw fluid to an end of the channel having an aperture, which forms a low point of the fluid cavity. A fluid dispenser can be coupled to the aperture and be in fluid communication with the cavity. The dispenser can include a valve and flexible conduit, allowing the user to position the dispenser to a desired location before activating the flow of fluid.

A plastic container configured to store and/or transport liquids, including chemicals such as organic peroxide, includes a top portion, a base portion, and a sidewall that extends between the top portion and the base portion. The top portion has a vent spout and a main spout. The top portion also has a front surface portion having a slanted face and a lip that extends radially from the main spout away from the slanted face. Additionally, the top portion has an integrated handle that defines a maximum handle length that is approximately half of the maximum container length. The base portion has an interior surface and an exterior surface. The exterior surface defines a handle recess.

An example fluid container includes a main body and a support leg. The main body has a bottom wall and a sidewall that extends from the bottom wall. The bottom wall has a bottom wall first internal surface and the sidewall has a sidewall first portion, a sidewall second portion, and defines a passageway. The bottom wall first internal surface extends from the sidewall second portion toward the passageway at a downward slope. The support leg extends from the main body and is sized and configured to support the fluid container.

Disclosed is an injection stretch blow molded (ISBM) container containing a surface having a static coefficient of friction (COF) of 0.15 to 0.21, a dynamic COF of 0.06 to 0.1, wherein the surface retains a water contact angle of 76? or higher for up to three minutes after wetting of the surface with a water drop of 14 to 16 mm diameter and the container is made with a polymeric composition containing a high density polyethylene (HDPE) having a dispersity (Mw/Mn) of 9 or higher as measured by GPC; a MI2 of 1 g/10 min or higher as measured by ASTM D-1238; 190? C./2.16 kg, as measured by ASTM D-1238; and an environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR) at 100% Igepal of >150 hours as measured by ASTM D-1693, B.
