Abstract: The disclosed principles provide for a new and unique reusable rigid package configured to provide a container for holding, for example, food products, as well as to provide a playable structure for consumers, such as children, to play with during or after consumption of the food product. In addition, multiple playable packages as disclosed herein may be collected and combined together, for example, end-to-end, into a larger toy such as train of cars, busses, railway cars or any other vehicle shape. Disposable or reusable covers, either rigid or soft, may also be provided with each such disclosed rigid package. Furthermore, each disclosed package is configured to be stacked, one at least partially received within the other, for efficient stacked storage of multiple packages.

Abstract: The disclosed corner caddy can hold an item in the corner body, but also includes a corner region that is substantially open and free of the caddy body that is useful for hanging or holding large or long items efficiently. In one embodiment, the corner caddy comprises a caddy body, a first attachment wall, a second attachment wall, and a corner region. The base comprises a first end, a second end, a front surface, and a rear surface. The first attachment wall is adjacent the first end and external to the caddy body, and defines a first plane. The second attachment wall is adjacent the second end and external to the caddy body, and defines a second plane. The first plane and second plane intersect to form a corner region, which is adjacent the rear surface and is substantially open and free of the caddy body.

Abstract: A needle positioning attachment connectable to the main drive shaft of a sewing machine in place of a pulley and handwheel assembly conventionally found on blind stitch and similar machines includes a resilient assembly for accumulating energy from rotation of the main drive shaft of the machine so as to use this accumulated energy for actuation of the needle positioning attachment when the main drive shaft ceases rotation. In this manner, the needle of the sewing machine will be positioned as desired for starting a new sewing operation each time the machine is deactuated.

Abstract: An attachment for sewing machines for folding and pressing seam plies for sleeves, trousers and the like having a pair of endless belts or tapes between which the cloth being sewn is carried. After the seam has been sewn, the cloth is carried forwardly into the path of a V-shaped seam opening member which causes the seam plies to be separated, be positioned at right angle to the cloth and lie on either side of the seam in a common plane. Upon being carried further forwardly, the seam plies engages a seam folding member which guides and folds over the seam plies from their right angle position to a flattened position against the cloth whereby the seam plies lie in substantially the same plane as the two layers of cloth after which the heated rollers and a hot air blower presses the four layers of cloth in superimposed contact relation.
