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.

A storage basket, including a side frame and a bottom plate arranged at the bottom of the side frame. The side frame and the bottom plate are of an integrated structure or split-type structures. An outer edge of the top of the side frame is provided with an outer frame; gaps are formed in all bends of the outer frame; corner protectors are wrapped on all the bends of the side frame; and the top of each corner protector has a bent portion that is bent towards the inner side of the side frame or the outer side of the side frame and covers the gap. The outer frame at the top of the storage basket deforms or breaks when the storage basket is made into a taper. The storage basket has high qualification rate, high production efficiency and attractive appearance.

A backflow security enclosure for maintained equipment is disclosed. The security enclosure includes a plurality of side panels joinable along an adjacent edge with an elongate rod. The elongate rod is received in a channel of a plurality of sockets disposed in a spaced apart relation along an adjacent edge of the plurality of panels. The plurality of sockets may be arranged in a hinge type configuration. A top panel is supported by the plurality of side panels when joined. A locking mechanism secures the top panel to at least one of the plurality of side panels. The side panels may be secured to a ground or wall surface to surround the equipment to be repaired or serviced by a technician.

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.

A thinned metal can end having a non-uniform thickness profile is provided. The can end has a central panel having at least a first thickness, a middle portion having at least a second thickness greater than the first thickness, and an end portion having at least a third thickness greater than the first and second thicknesses. The can end is configured to be joined to a can wall by a double seam.

The invention relates to a lid element (1) for a beverage container (2), at least comprising a lid panel (3) having an opening (4), a fold edge (6) extending around the lid panel (3) in a circumferential direction (5) for connecting the lid element (1) to the beverage container (2), as well as damping bead (7) extending circumferentially between the fold edge (6) and the lid panel (3); wherein the lid element (1) has an outer face (8) and an inner face (9), and the opening (4) has an opening rim (10) and an opening plane (11) formed by the opening rim (10); wherein the lid element (1) has a connection region (12) which directly adjoins the opening rim (10), extends around the opening rim (10) in the circumferential direction (5), and extends at least in part at an angle of inclination (13).

An open-type storage basket easy to assemble, comprising a side frame body arranged on a side and a bottom plate arranged on a bottom of the side frame body, the side frame body is formed by bending of at least one side edge frame, which have end parts connected through an X type clamping piece whose longitudinal cross section presents an X shape, the X type clamping piece includes a first V shaped metal strap arranged on one side, a second V shaped metal strap arranged on the other side; one end of the side edge frame is inserted into the first V shaped metal strap while the other end is inserted into the second V shaped metal strap; the first and second V shaped metal straps fix and connect together the side edge frame at the two ends through extrusion deformation to form side frame bodies of various shapes.

A basket includes an annular sidewall and an expanded mesh securely mounted onto a lower portion of the annular sidewall to define a containing space that has an upward opening.
