  • Patent number: 11896554
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are modular container systems having child-resistant containers, tray inserts and tray frames. Also disclosed are methods using the modular container systems and methods of storing substances in containers. The containers have a container base and a container cap and provide for child-resistant containers. A user can releasably remove the container cap from container base with a squeeze and lift sequence. For example, the user squeezes opposite sides of the container base, which releases a locking mechanism and allows for removal of the cap by lifting or pulling the container cap off from the container base. The components of the modular container system are modular and stackable. The modular system allow for organized, efficient, accessible and storage of the child-resistant containers. The modular container system also allows for easy counting, sorting and processing of the containers.

  • Patent number: 11365384
    Abstract: To avoid cleaning costs and to reduce the risk of cross-contamination, a water bath for use in incubators includes a profiled receiver, open at least at the upper face, preferably at the end faces and the upper face, with receiver surfaces extending in the longitudinal direction. A prefabricated disposable vessel for liquid open at the upper face includes vessel walls that lie flush on the receiver surfaces of the receiver. Fastenings are used fix the disposable vessel on the receiver. The water bath also includes a liquid supply, designed for filling the disposable vessel with liquid.

  • Publication number: 20220106214
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and components for manufacturing substantially square glass containers and components and a method for forming parisons are disclosed. A plunger is extended into a mold which presses molten glass against the walls of the mold and against the extended plunger. Compressed air is applied through the neck of the parison to expand the parison outwardly against another mold and an end surface defined by a baffle. The neck ring provides retention features on the neck of the glass container and can include child-resistance features. Each of the molds, neck ring, and plunger produce substantially square glass containers having a substantially square neck.

  • Patent number: 10619129
    Abstract: A method for the regulated humidification and temperature control of a gas mixture in an inner chamber of an incubator, which inner chamber is sealed off from the surroundings by a housing, includes conducting heat from at least one condensation surface inside the incubator, which at least one condensation surface is separate from the inner surfaces of the inner chamber, is conducted out of the incubator to the outside through a wall delimiting the inner chamber by a heat conductor. Outside the incubator, the heat conductor is connected to a cooling body which releases the heat to the relatively cold ambient air. The method allows dispensing with a cooling unit and at the same time avoid sources of contamination due to moisture condensing out.
