Abstract: Methods and apparatus for removably or irremovably interconnectable building block containers such as those capable of initially storing consumable items such as food and drink. After consumption of the food or drink, the cavity containing same may be cleaned and/or refilled with consumable or non-consumable items. The building block containers are utilized as building block toys and may be manufactured or otherwise designed to be collectable. In one aspect, the container connectors are nearly identical such that any one connector may mate with any other connector. In another aspect, the connectors are nearly identical but the orientations of each connector vary to allow mating to occur when the connectors are properly oriented. In another aspect, the container is a cube juice box with connectors on all four corners of all six sides of the container. A frame for holding a juice container may also be utilized.

Abstract: A device (100) for receiving electrical components and wiring and adapted for mounting between adjacent studs of a wall structure, the device (100) includes means forming a composite chamber and having a box (100) with parallel, spaced apart right and left side panels (102, 103) for attachment to studs and spaced apart top and bottom panels (104, 105) having ends joined to ends of the right and left panels (102, 103) and arranged so as to form a housing chamber (112) at least partially forming the composite chamber. At least one framework (225) is movable between a first position within the composite chamber and a second position outside the composite chamber, the one framework (225) being shaped and arranged to receive electrical components.

Abstract: An expandable structured wiring box (100) for managing and organizing wiring for household communications systems is disclosed. An adaptive trim ring (202) is provided for increasing internal space to allow for additional internal components. The trim ring (202) also hinges wall edges (208A, 208B) caused during installation of the box (100).

Abstract: An electrical box (100) for mounting between adjacent studs of a structural wall and having side panels (102, 103) defining spaced apart stress relief regions (182) each encompassing a mounting hole (184) and outwardly deflectable in response to actuation of a fastener through the hole (184) into penetrating engagement with a stud.

Abstract: An outside diameter finishing tool (10) has an outer shell (16) and an inner annular abrasive layer (22) for precision finishing the outer surfaces of generally cylindrical workpieces. The inner layer (22) of the tool (10) is made of superabrasives and defines the cutting size of the tool (10). The inner layer (22) cuts simultaneously around the full periphery of a cylindrical workpiece rotated within the tool (10). A slot (14) is provided through the tool (10) to allow for radial adjustment of the cutting size of the tool (10).
