Patent number: 11745126Abstract: A solids interceptor and methods of using the same. The solids interceptor includes a tank including an open end, a wastewater inlet, and one or more wastewater outlets. A basket assembly is removably attachable to the tank via the open end between an operable position and a removed position. The basket assembly may seal the open end when in the operable position and expose the open end of the tank to a surrounding environment when in the removed position. A first and second outlet may extend away from an interior of the tank in a first and direction, respectively, with the second direction being oriented at an angle with respect to the first direction. The basket assembly may include a seal that is compressed about a circumferentially extending corner provided on the tank to thereby seal the open end of the tank and the plumbing system.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2020Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: Striem LLCInventors: Vincent Ismert, Gabe Ismert, Rusty Shaver, Montgomery Jones

Patent number: 10786761Abstract: An improved solids interceptor and methods of using the same. The solids interceptor includes a tank having an inlet and at least one outlet, and an access opening on an upper end of the tank. A perforated basket is removably received within the tank via the access opening. When the basket is installed within the tank, wastewater entering the tank via the inlet flows into the basket, with the solid waste being collected in the basket and the liquid waste flowing out of the basket via the perforated screen. The basket and tank include an interlocking flange assembly that automatically axially aligns a basket inlet with an inlet pipe simply by inserting the basket into the tank. The basket is removable from the tank to easily clean out and discard solid waste accumulated in the basket.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2019Date of Patent: September 29, 2020Assignee: Striem LLCInventors: Vincent Ismert, Gabe Ismert, Rusty Shaver, Montgomery Jones, Matthew Keen

Patent number: 10273051Abstract: A container and handle system includes a container including a flange and a top load strength in a range of less than 25 lbf. A handle includes at least one radially oriented tab movable to define a first diameter being greater than a diameter of the flange and configured to facilitate translation over the flange. The at least one tab is biased to a second diameter that is less than the flange diameter such that the at least one tab engages the flange to fix the handle with the container. Packaging products, containers, handles, tooling, applicators and methods are disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2016Date of Patent: April 30, 2019Assignee: RING CONTAINER TECHNOLOGIESInventors: Carl D.
