Abstract: An enclosure having an opening that allows access to a space formed by the enclosure, a door that covers the opening, wherein the door includes a pair of rigid edges, and a vertical living hinge that attaches the door to a portion of the enclosure. The enclosure may have a horizontal living hinge that allows the pair of rigid edges to fold with respect to each other. The door may have a plurality of stiffening members to form the pair of rigid edges. The enclosure may have a plurality of stiffening members in the enclosure wall, located proximate to the opening. The plurality of stiffening members in the enclosure wall may be positioned to substantially align with the plurality of stiffening members in the door, so as to cover the opening and form a seal between the door and the enclosure.

Abstract: An enclosure that includes a deployable expansion structure for added space. The enclosure comprises a cover that includes a panel, a plurality of wall supports that connect to the panel, with each of the plurality of wall supports having a first end that connects to a portion of panel, an expansion support having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the expansion support connects to a portion of the cover, and a hub that connects to a second end of each of the plurality of wall supports and the second end of the expansion support. The expansion support pivots from a first position to a second position with respect to the hub to deploy the expansion structure to form a cavity with additional space.

Abstract: A system and process for taking a liquid such as water from a source and supplying the liquid by, for example, pushing the liquid through a filter provided inside a reservoir in order to render the liquid clean and potable. The reservoir and filter may be surrounded 360-degrees by a pressure bladder that may be wrapped with a material such as nylon, so that substantially all pressure goes inwards towards the filter.
