Abstract: A device comprising: a first sidewall connected to a bottom wall via a first hinge and connected to a top wall via a second hinge, wherein a third hinge is disposed in the first sidewall about parallel to both the first hinge and the second hinge; a second sidewall connected to the bottom wall via a fourth hinge and connected to the top wall via a fifth hinge, wherein a sixth hinge is disposed in the second sidewall about parallel to both the fourth hinge and the fifth hinge, wherein the second sidewall is opposite the first sidewall, and wherein the third hinge of the first sidewall and the sixth hinge of the second sidewall have about a co-equal height along the side first and second sidewalls, relative to the bottom wall; a third sidewall connected to the bottom wall via a seventh hinge; and a fourth sidewall connected to the bottom wall via an eight hinge, wherein the fourth sidewall is configured to fold onto the bottom wall, and wherein the third sidewall is configured to fold onto the fourth sidewall i

Abstract: A storage module adapter assembly includes adapter base plates that are two-person portable, can be installed/removed by hand, and cooperate with existing structures of existing modular cargo containers. Each adapter base plate includes various longitudinal and transverse frame members, as well as first and second longitudinal frame members on opposed sides thereof. The first longitudinal frame member has a first height, and the second longitudinal frame member has a second height, which is greater than the first height. Each of the first and second longitudinal frame members also include generally horizontal flange members extending from a top side thereof, such that when two adapter base plates are appropriately positioned side by side, the generally horizontal flange members on the adjacent sides of the two adapter base plates overlap due to the difference between the first and second heights. The adapter base plates can then be connected together by appropriate mechanisms.

Abstract: A method for repairing a component having first and second major surfaces, a thickness between the major surfaces, and an edge, is characterized by utilizing a template to determine if the component is suitable for repair, and forming a slot cut entirely through the thickness of the component. The slot extends inward from the edge of the component, has an open end at the edge of the component, a closed end within the component, a width, a radius at the closed end, and chamfered edges at the open end. Forming the slot includes forming an initial cut with a first cutting surface from the edge of the component at least to the defect, finishing the initial cut to the width and the radius with a second cutting surface, resulting in a finished cut, and chamfering the edge of the finished cut with a third cutting surface.

Abstract: A method for repairing a defect in a component having a first major surface and a second major surface, a thickness defined between the major surfaces, and an edge adjoining both the major surfaces is characterized by forming a slot cut entirely through the thickness of the component between the first and second major surfaces, the slot extending inward from the edge of the component towards an interior of the component to a depth from the edge sufficient to remove at least a substantial part of the defect, the slot defining an open end at the edge of the component, a closed end within the component, a width, a radius formed by the closed end, and opposing chamfered edges at the open end.

Abstract: A mobile reuse center structure for containment and handling of hazardous materials comprising a base assembly having a containment pan, right side and left side walls, front and rear walls and a roof assembly. The right side wall and the front wall each have a door which allow access to the interior of the structure by its user. The left side wall has a plurality of deflagration vents which burst open when pressure is applied to the deflagration vents. The roof assembly has at each corner thereof a corner fitting which may receive a twistlock stacker. The twistlock stackers when coupled to the roof assembly corner fittings allow a drum rack to be stacked on top of and secured to the roof assembly. A machinery compartment is located in the rear end of the mobile reuse center structure. The machinery compartment includes the electrical control and power distribution system for the mobile reuse center structure.

Abstract: A mobile modular warehouse structure for the storing and handling of conters of hazardous materials comprising a control point modular storage unit and a plurality of warehouse modular storage units. The modular storage units may be configured in a row to form one embodiment of the mobile modular warehouse structure. In this configuration access between the interiors of adjacent modular storage units is provided by a bellows which is connected to and removable from a bellows support frame in a side wall of each modular storage unit. The modular storage units may also be configured in a stacked arrangement to form an alternate embodiment of the modular mobile safety structure. In this configuration access between the interiors of the stacked modular storage units is provided through an opening between the control point modular storage unit and the warehouse modular storage unit stacked thereon. Stairs located in the control point modular storage unit allow the user to gain access to each unit in the stack.
