Abstract: Embodiments herein disclose a shielding curtain that is configured to block through passage of electromagnetic radiation. The shielding curtain may be a flap portion of a larger shielding curtain or a single, unitary body that includes a single mounting bead and a plurality of flaps. The shielding curtain is formed of a polymer material that has a uniformly dispersed particulate material. Electromagnetic radiation emitted by an inspection system is blocked by the uniformly dispersed particulate material.

Abstract: A wheeled shipping/transport cart includes a cart frame that supports a plurality of wheels. The cart frame supports a plurality of stackable trays. The trays include a tray frame with opposed end members, a plurality of longitudinal support members disposed between the opposed end members, and a plurality of upright members nesting with upright members of an adjacent tray. A support structure is disposed between the opposed end members to form an arc corresponding to a curved surface of an article to be supported by the support structure. A pin is received through each of the upright members of the plurality of stackable trays to retain the stackable trays in a stacked configuration.

Abstract: The invention relates to a roller conveyor jam break tool having a molded head member that is configured to clear a conveyor jam without the risk of the head member falling between two adjacent rollers and becoming lodged between those adjacent rollers. The molded head member is constructed of a lightweight durable, polymeric material, and the molded head member can be integrally fabricated with or selectively attached to a terminal end of an elongate handle.

Abstract: A system for use in a package delivery vehicle includes an edge railing, and a panel with a hinged edge and a free edge that is located opposite from the hinged edge. A panel hinge member is located at the hinged edge of the panel. A hinge body is mounted to the edge railing and pivotally coupled to the panel hinge member to allow the panel hinge member and the panel to pivot with respect to the hinge body. The panel and the panel hinge member are formed as a unitary monolithic body.

Abstract: A stowable floor panel system includes a horizontal railing coupled to a sidewall of a package delivery vehicle where the horizontal railing includes an upper and a lower track that are spaced apart from each other. The upper track defines an upper channel, and the lower track defines a lower channel. A hinge assembly couples a stowable floor panel to the horizontal railing. A hinge body has a plurality of relief features and an upper projection extending from a rail receiving body portion and a lower projection extending from the rail receiving body portion opposite the upper projection. When the hinge body is inserted in the railing and rotated 90 degrees the upper projection seats in the upper channel, and the lower projection seats in the lower channel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a lead-free, non-toxic and arc resistant composite material having a thermosetting polymer, at least one heavy particulate filler, at least one light particulate filler and, optionally, at least one arc resistant filler. The composite material may be utilized in manufacturing articles used in radiation shielding and other applications where arc resistant and dielectric strength are desired.

Abstract: An exemplary system for use in a package delivery vehicle is provided that may include a hinge member that includes a first opening and a hinge body that includes a second opening that is pivotally coupled to the first opening so that the hinge body can pivot with respect to the hinge member. The hinge body also includes a first protrusion and a second protrusion that extends from the first protrusion. The first and second protrusions are slideable within a key structure that extends at least partway along a longitudinal axis of an edge railing of the package delivery vehicle.
