  • Patent number: 10442586
    Abstract: Various embodiments of containers are described having a body with a base and sidewall that defines a hollow interior portion of the body. A separable band can be affixed to the body to provide an attachment mechanism for a cap to be coupled with the body. An insert can be disposed between the body and cap to provide a liquid-tight and air-tight seal when the cap is coupled with the body. Preferably, the insert is dual layer with a layer of foam that compresses when the cap is coupled with the body.

  • Patent number: 10239674
    Abstract: Various embodiments of containers are described having a base and a cap that is configured to couple with the base. The base includes a housing having a hollow interior, with the housing extending upwardly from an upper surface of the base. The base also includes a set of flexible tabs that are configured to flex when a force is applied. The housing has a set of outward projections, each of which is configured to be inserted into a recessed portion or notch of the cap when the cap is coupled with the base. The cap further includes a set of downward projections that contact the flexible tabs, such that a downward force applied to the cap causes the flexible tabs to flex downwardly, and the projections of the housing to move within the first and second recessed portions.

  • Patent number: 5541826
    Abstract: A quartz lamp that permits the bulb to be replaced from a side port without disassembling the lamp housing, and without having to touch the quartz envelope of the bulb. The lamp has an access port in a side wall of the lamp housing through which an expired bulb is extracted and a replacement bulb is installed. A knob seats in the access port where it is lockable into its seated position. Attached to the inner surface of the knob is a first bulb holder assembly, which receives and holds the bulb at one of its ends and establishes electrical contact with the bulb at that end. A second bulb holder assembly is secured within the lamp housing at a position opposite the access port and in registration with the first bulb holder assembly. The second bulb holder assembly receives and holds, and establishes electrical contact with, the bulb at the opposite end when it is inserted into the lamp housing through the access port.
