Abstract: For storing frame-like objects during shipment, which comprises a box having a normally vertical wall portion and a normally horizontal base together defining an inner space, the box having an opening into the inner space; upper and lower pairs of elongated brackets projecting from the vertical wall portion into the inner space for supporting a plurality of frame-like objects suspended therefrom, the pairs of brackets each having proximal ends at the vetical wall portion and distal free ends, the pair of lower brackets being lower with respect to the base than and spaced inwardly of the pair of upper brackets, the upper and lower pairs of brackets being accessible through the opening, whereby the frame-like objects can be loaded onto and unloaded from the upper and lower brackets via the opening; and a movable cover for closing the opening of the box.

Abstract: A method for the production of frames from rigid plastic profiles for use on refrigerator cabinets and in particular on chest freezers, which comprises forming the plastic profiles, mitering and welding the edges of the plastic profiles to form a frame having sharp-edged corners, and rounding at least one of the sharp-edged corners by means of thermo-forming.The invention also comprises the finished frame thereby obtained and its application in the field of refrigerator cabinets and in particular, chest freezers.

Abstract: The invention relates to a profile of plastic material for refrigerator and similar cabinets, comprising a bellows gasket portion which provides a tight seal between the door and the cabinet, characterized in that the profile and the gasket portion are integral and form only one piece produced by co-extrusion of two materials having a different rigidity such as to permit a ready detachment of the gasket portion, which is less rigid than the profile, from the profile along the region of their connection, under an appropriate manual or mechanical force, and that the said profile has on its side facing the cabinet a pair of lateral faces between which a groove is defined, suitable for receiving a substituting bellows gasket portion, and on its side facing the door at least one side-flange elastically yielding, acting as a spring for press (snap) coupling the door and the counterdoor in cooperation with the said lateral faces, each one of the said faces operatively self-positioning relatively to the door shell an

Abstract: A roofing system, comprising a roof; a plurality of elongated roofing members on said roof, each said member comprising an elongated, three-ply laminate body portion and integral opposed, first and second longitudinally extending edge portions, said first edge portion comprising a one-ply cover means and a two-ply body means and said second edge portion comprising said three-ply laminate; said three-ply second edge portion of a said member being between said cover means and said two-ply body means of an adjacent said member, and means for fastening a said second edge portion of one member and its associated body means of an adjacent member to said roof.

Abstract: An elastomeric thermoplastic graft terpolymer of vinyl chloride and an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer containing kaolin, talc, silica or alumina as a flame retardant, smoke and soot-inhibiting filler and, conventionally, a flame retardant.
