Abstract: A plate assembly for increasing the efficiency and safety of a rotational molding machine. The plate assembly includes a mold plate that is coupled to a mold and mold frame, and an arm plate that is coupled to a distal end of rotating arm portion of the rotational molding machine. The mold plate includes means for being rotated relative to the arm plate that the mold plate may be selectively engaged to the arm plate. The mold plate and by extension the mold are locked into position via a plurality of coupling means disposed on the arm plate. Once secured, the rotational molding process is carried out by the rotational molding machine rotating the mold and plate assembly around at least one axis of rotation as the mold is indexed or rotated through each of the plurality of fabrication steps.

Abstract: A closure for a blow-molded container is disclosed, comprising a ring portion, a hinge portion, and a lid portion. Also disclosed are combinations of a closure and a blow-molded container, which in certain embodiments is a blow-molded urinal.
