A bottom wall is provided with a predetermined umber of hinge knuckles with a central through opening through which pins are passed. Parapets of different heights are provided to raise the knuckles to predetermined heights that will clear the stacked up thickness of the folded walls. The height of the front, rear and the two side lateral walls is determined by the width of the bottom wall which in turn will also determine the width and height of the front and rear walls. A handle is removably mounted to the top wall, protruding toward the exterior.

  • Patent number: 8167157
    Abstract: A box is collapsible in such a manner that it can form a flat stack of panels, each of which corresponds to one side of the box. When the box is configured as a flat stack of panels, it is relatively compact and, therefore, easy to store. When the collapsible box is configured as a box, it is sturdy and strong. The collapsible box has latching elements that can temporarily connect adjacent sides of the box to one another. Typically, a person can latch and unlatch the latching elements with his or her hand. The box is typically transparent and, therefore, well suited for displaying ornamental items, such as ornate hats.

  • Patent number: 7845508
    Abstract: A convertible device that converts between an activity mat and a storage container to capture and store numerous articles. Upon reclosing the activity mat, the articles are recaptured into the storage container. The device includes walls and a base, webbing connected between each adjacent wall pair, and a joint connected between the base and walls so that they are foldable into a third configuration wherein the footprint of the folded device is roughly the size of the base. In the third configuration, the walls are stacked relative to the base. The convertible device may further include two zippers for releasably holding the walls in a rigid and upright position in the first configuration. The webbing can be inwardly biased such that when the walls are urged from the second to the first configuration, the webbing folds toward the interior of the convertible device.
