Abstract: An example lid assembly can include a lid and a slider. The lid can include a wall defining a recess. The slider can be configured to slide in the recess and can be configured to move between a closed position where the slider covers the opening to aid in preventing spilling of contents of the container, and an opened position where the slider uncovers the opening such that the contents may be poured from the container. The slider can be configured to be removable from the lid and can be replaced back on the lid. Additionally, the slider can be formed from upper and lower sled elements that are magnetically coupled to one another.

Abstract: An insulating container having a base and a lid is provided. The lid may be rotatable about a hinge from a closed configuration to an open configuration and may be secured, via one or more latching devices, in the closed configuration. In some examples, the insulating container further includes a pull handle assembly with a telescopic three-stage arm configuration defined by a stowed configuration, a partially extended configuration, and a fully extended configuration. In other examples, the insulating container further includes a wheel assembly with a pair of wheels mounted with one or two axles, and further including a wheel grommet for absorbing shock and cushioning the axle.

Abstract: An infant feeder has a handle with a proximally extending tongue and a pouch assembly for fitting over the tongue. The tongue has first and second axially spaced apart detenting structures. In a first configuration, a pouch assembly detenting structure is engaged with the first tongue detenting structure. In order to achieve a second configuration, a predetermined axial force is applied to the pouch assembly relative to the handle, so as to disengage the pouch assembly detenting structure from the first tongue detenting structure, slide the pouch assembly distally down a sidewall of the tongue and engage the second tongue detenting structure. This decreases the size of the food volume bounded by the pouch assembly and the tongue, and proximally displaces any food contained therein.

Abstract: An energy conversion method transfers energy from celestial bodies, including the Earth, to a vehicle apparatus by way of a gravity assist, a descent towards the surface of the celestial body, or both. The energy transferred to the vehicle apparatus may be utilized by: a kinetic energy converter apparatus converting the kinetic energy to any form of kinetic energy, potential energy, or both; doing work on any end use process or power plant apparatus immediately, later, or both; storing the kinetic energy, the potential energy, or both on an accumulator apparatus to be utilized on site, at another location, or both.
