The invention relates to a plug connection element for releasable connecting two adjacent wall elements of a transportation box, having a first U-shaped receptacle for an edge region of the first wall element, which is formed from a first base plate and an inner leg angled to the latter and an adjoined angled outer leg, and a second U-shaped receptacle for an edge region of the second wall element, which is formed from a second base plate and an inner leg angled to the latter and an adjoined angled outer leg, wherein the first and second U-shaped receptacle are identically aligned, wherein the first and second receptacle are connected to each other by means of a bending joint, so that the U-shaped receptacles is adjustable in terms of their angular position to each other.

A wooden cask for storing and aging wine and other beverages including four side panels, a bottom panel and a top panel. The panels are provided with substantially planar outer and inner surfaces joined to one another so as to define an internal storage volume. Vertical beams form buttresses against the outer surfaces of at least two opposite side panels. The two ends of the beams project beyond the bottom and top edges of the side panel against which same are fitted, such that the casks may be stacked by placing the beams thereof one on top of the other without the side walls of the stacked casks touching one another.

Compartmented assemblies related to customizable storage compartments. A bottom panel, side panels, and divider panels may be configured in any combination to form a compartmented assembly with a primary compartment comprising at least two sub-compartments. A method of designing and constructing compartmented assemblies is described. A graphical user interface may be used to format a design which may be transmitted to associated machinery for automated cutting of the component panels. Series of notches, tabs, and apertures are used for mating adjacent panels to one another. Adhesive may be inserted into joints for securing the panels.

The present application discloses a heat preservation box and a split-type wooden box with a heat preservation box that includes a heat preservation box and a wooden box. The heat preservation box is placed in the wooden box and they are flexibly connected to each other. The heat preservation box may be taken out of the wooden box for separate use. There is no connection between the wooden box cover and a body of the wooden box; a drain plug on a side surface of the heat preservation box is used in cooperation with a side cover plate of the wooden box, so that waste water in the heat preservation box can be prevented from entering the wooden box; the box body of the heat preservation box is locked with the upper cover of the heat preservation box, and the operation is simple.

The present invention relates to a barrel lid, such as a wood wine barrel lid, that inhibits and withstands warping and/or deformation. In one embodiment, the anti-warping wine barrel head comprises a plurality of adjacent slats, a plurality of staves where at least one stave disposed between each pair of adjacent slats, a plurality of grooves disposed on a top and/or bottom surface of the barrel head where each groove is oriented at an angle with respect to the plurality of slats, and a plurality of rods disposed in the plurality of top and/or bottom surface grooves where at least one rod is disposed in each of the plurality of top and/or bottom surface grooves. In some embodiments, staves are double flanged or rectangular, and rods have a half-round cross-section or triangular cross-section. In other embodiments, a gasket may span the periphery of the barrel lid, for example, along a lip thereof. In some embodiments, a locking ring is utilized to secure wine barrel lid to the container or drum.

A storage chest has a base, a plurality of rails coupled to the base, and a side panel at each side coupled to the base between the rails. The base further includes a front panel coupled to the base between the side panel, a rear panel coupled to the base on a side opposite the front panel and between the side panels, and a cover movably coupled to the storage chest and configured to move from a closed position fully extending over the storage chest and substantially parallel to and opposite the base to an open position exposing an interior of the storage chest. The side, front, and rear panels and rails define openings providing access from an area exterior to the storage chest to the interior of the storage chest.

A production process of a bamboo bowl includes: cutting out arc-shaped bamboo strips on a bamboo board; splicing the bamboo strips into a bamboo ring; finally gluing several bamboo rings with gradually larger diameters on the bottom of the bamboo bowl successively to form a bamboo bowl billet, and making into a bamboo bowl after subsequent processings. The bamboo bowl made by the above production process includes a bamboo bowl bottom and bamboo rings superimposed on the bamboo bowl bottom; the bamboo ring consists of at least two arc-shaped bamboo strips, the diameters of the bamboo rings are gradually increased from the bottom up; the arc-shaped bamboo strips are fixed through adhesive, and the bamboo rings are also fixed through adhesive.
