Abstract: A molded plastic structure, such as a panel, may include an upper surface, a lower surface, and a hollow interior portion. The panel may include an outwardly extending lip, blow point receiving portions, and a continuous tack-off. The lip may extend downwardly relative to the lower surface of the panel. The lip may include an outer surface and an inner surface. The blow point receiving portions may be configured to receive a blow pin.

The outer wall may extend in a normal direction from the planar element. The inner wall may be disposed in an inward direction relative to the outer wall. The structural portions may be disposed along structural sections of the perimeter and may include first portions of the inner wall and of the outer wall. The first portions may be disposed parallel to the inner wall and separated from the first portions by a first distance along the structural sections. The protruded features may be interposed between two structural portions and an inner wall may be separated from second portions of the outer wall by a second distance that is greater than the first distance.

For example, a container may include four walls and a first expandable portion may be movable between a collapsed position and an expanded position. The container may also include a second expandable portion that is movable between a collapsed position and an expanded position. The first and second expandable portions may allow a wall of the container to move between a first position and a second position when the first and second expandable portions are moved between the collapsed position and the expanded position.

Abstract: A cooking device may include a cooking chamber and a drip tray may be disposed within the cooking chamber. The drip tray may include one or more portions such as a first portion, a second portion, a third portion, and a fourth portion. The first portion and the second portion may be disposed in an angled configuration, such as a V-shaped configuration. In addition, the third portion and the fourth portion may be disposed in an angled configuration, such as a V-shaped configuration. The second portion and the third portion may be disposed in an angled configuration, such as an inverted V-shaped configuration. The drip tray may be sized and configured to control at least a portion of a flow of thermal energy within the cooking device.

Abstract: A cooking device may include a cooking chamber with a first gas-powered heat source, such as a gas grill, disposed in the cooking chamber. The cooking chamber may also include a receptacle, such as a drawer, that is sized and configured to receive a solid fuel, which may be used to generate smoke. The drawer movable between a closed position in which the drawer and solid fuel are disposed inside the cooking chamber and an open position in which the drawer is at least partially removed from the cooking chamber. A second or secondary gas-powered heat source may reheat, reburn, and/or recombust the smoke from the solid fuel heat source to create smoke with different characteristics. The second gas-powered heat source and at least a portion of the drawer may be disposed in a vertically stacked configuration.

Abstract: A table may include a tabletop, a frame, and a leg assembly. The leg assembly may include a support element, a translation mechanism, and a lock device. The support element may include an end structure attached to an elongated structure. The end structure may be rotatably coupled to the frame such that the support element is rotatable relative to the frame between a first position and a second position. The translation mechanism may be retained relative to the support element and the frame. The translation mechanism may be configured to translate along the support element as the support element rotates. The lock device may be configurable in an engaged arrangement in which the lock device fixes the translation mechanism to the support element and in a disengaged arrangement in which the translation mechanism is not fixed relative to the support element.

Abstract: In one example, a watercraft includes a hull that defines a well extending through a bottom of the hull, a pedal-drive mechanism connected to the hull, and the pedal-drive mechanism is movable, while connected to the hull, out of the well from a deployed position to a stowed position, and a mechanism that is configured to cover a portion of the well when the pedal-drive mechanism is in the deployed position.

Abstract: In one example, a method includes positioning a tool in a mold, forming a parison of melted plastic, closing the mold around the parison and tool such that part of the tool is positioned between a portion of the mold and the parison, creating a blow molded structure by inflating the parison so that the melted plastic comes into contact with an interior portion of the mold and into contact with the tool, and after the mold is closed, operating the tool to form an integral compression molded element within the mold, and a parting line formed by the mold in the blow molded structure forms no part of the integral compression molded element.

Abstract: A two-stage lock assembly comprising a multi-element lock tab configured for disposition in a lateral structure of a lock device. The multi-element lock tab may include a body that includes an end on which a first element and a second element are disposed. The first element may extend from the body farther than the second element to enable the first element to be introduced into a receiver prior to the second element. The multi-element lock tab may be configurable in a disengaged configuration in which the first element and the second element are not positioned in a receiver, a first engaged configuration in which the first element is positioned in the receiver and the second element is not, and a second engaged configuration in which the first and the second elements are positioned in the receiver.

Abstract: A structure constructed using a blow-molding process comprising a tabletop, a lip, a pair of blow points, and a continuous tack-off. The tabletop includes an upper surface, a lower surface, and a hollow interior portion disposed between the upper and lower surfaces. The lip extends downwardly relative to the lower surface. The lip includes an outer and an inner surface. The blow points are configured to receive a blow pin. The blow points include a first portion connected to the lower surface, a second portion connected to the inner surface, and a hollow interior portion in fluid communication with the hollow interior portion. The continuous tack-off is disposed between the tabletop and the lip and extends between the blow points. The continuous tack-off prevents fluid flow between the tabletop and the lip along the section of the lip.
