A gelling product for solidifying a body fluid aspirated in a fluid collection container has an interior, a gelling agent arranged in the interior, and a water-soluble cover. The water-soluble cover is made of a textile material. The gelling product, in particular a gelling bag, is in this way prevented from bursting too early.

The invention relates to a clip that is suitable for the constriction of sausage casings, the clip having a general U-shaped configuration comprising two facing legs that are bent with respect to a base of the clip, wherein said base of the clip is divided so as to determine in the same two or more joining bridges between the legs, these joining bridges spaced apart and the ends thereof converging at the aforementioned legs, between said bridges one or several creases or folds of the casing can be at least partially housed when the clip tightly clasps said casing.

A binding tool includes a pair of leg portions and a central portion that is provided between the pair of leg portions. The binding tool is formed in a horseshoe shape and is capable of binding an object to be bound by bending the pair of leg portions inward. The pair of leg portions are arranged to be deviated from each other in a front-rear direction as viewed in a thickness direction.

A plant transportation system is disclosed. At a high level, the system includes specially-designed pots which include lift-fixtures, such as eyebolts, which are specially-oriented and aligned to receive poles or tines from a lifting mechanism. In this way, each of at least two tines of a lifting attachment can pass through two lift-fixtures on the pot. In this way, when the lifting attachment rises, the plant in the container remains stable and vertical. Moreover, it also allows the lifting attachment to potentially pass through and hold multiple pots. A vehicle having such a lifting attachment may then transport the plants to a planting site, or to another transportation vehicle such as a flat-bed truck.

A flexible package for storing and transporting bulk goods. Such flexible package can have material-impermeable connections for spreading out sections of the flexible package wall so as to correspond to a predefined shape. One or more docking connections for filling and discharging can be included. The flexible package can have a square bottom and adjacent to the sides thereof triangular stubs as lateral walls. Together, such lateral walls can form an upwardly open pyramid shape. Opposite the bottom, a coupling element can be connected in such a manner that it presents the flexible package so as to be sealable in a standardized manner on open-sided ends of the lateral walls.

A clip suitable for the constriction of sausage casings, the clip having a general U-shaped configuration with two facing legs that are bent with respect to a base of the clip. The base of the clip is divided so as to determine in the same two or more joining bridges between the legs. These joining bridges are spaced apart and the ends thereof converge at the aforementioned legs. Between the bridges one or several creases or folds of the casing can be at least partially housed when the clip tightly clasps the casing.

A soft transfer case for biological and chemical material is provided. The transfer case includes a film-laminated, woven textile exterior layer as a pouch resembling an open cylinder. The cylinder is capable of being clamped at each end of the cylinder. A pouch shaped and single open end elastomeric bladder capable of containing biological and chemical material can be contained by the exterior layer. The bladder requires only one seam which is used to permanently seal the open end with the material contained therein. Upon pressurization of the bladder, the exterior layer expands and a restraining force is generated between the textile layer and the clamps.

A method for closing a mesh bag including applying an ancillary closing element around a transversely collected portion of the bag, tightly girdling the same, thereby determining on a first side of the closing element a storage portion of the bag and on a second side of the closing element, adjacent thereto, a mesh bundle. The method further including the operation of bonding yarns of the mesh bundle together to form at least one bulge that acts as a retainer as it prevents, by abutment with the ancillary closing element, the mesh bundle from passing from the second side to the first side of the ancillary closing element.
