  • Patent number: 11511925
    Abstract: Systems and methods for nesting product packaging with strainer inserts are provided. Product packaging systems may include, for example, a product container with a lid and with a strainer insert disposed within the container. In some embodiments, the strainer inserts may be snapped into place in a channel, groove, or other retention feature of the parent container, thus permitting coupling without the use of adhesives or fasteners. The strainer inserts, when coupled within the parent containers, may define a drainage volume in which product fluids may drain to maintain the product separately from the fluids, e.g., to prolong shelf-life of the product.

  • Patent number: 10904744
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may signal, to a base station, an indication that fast sleep is supported by the UE with regard to an inter-slot scheduling configuration or a non-self-contained slot configuration; and receive, based at least in part on signaling the indication that the fast sleep is supported by the UE, signaling indicating the inter-slot scheduling configuration or the non-self-contained slot configuration for the fast sleep, wherein the fast sleep is between at least one of a data grant and a corresponding data communication for the inter-slot scheduling, or a data communication and acknowledgment (ACK)/negative ACK (NACK) feedback regarding the data communication for the non-self-contained slot configuration. Numerous other aspects are provided.

  • Patent number: 10850916
    Abstract: Disclosed is a container for protecting baked goods during shipment that includes, among other elements, a lid and a base. The base includes a plurality of wells and interconnected posts. Each well is adapted for supporting a baked good during shipment. The interconnected posts are formed in the base and extend upwardly from a base bottom. Each post is positioned adjacent to at least one of the wells and includes a retainer shoulder that is positioned proximate an upper end of the post and adapted to positively capture baked goods in each of the adjacent wells.

  • Patent number: 10743203
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus relating to minimizing interference by controlling beam width of a wireless device. In certain aspects, a method of minimizing interference by controlling beam width of a wireless device, such as a user equipment (UE), includes configuring antenna elements of the UE to communicate in a serving cell using a first beam, monitoring a channel quality metric in the serving cell, and re-configuring the antenna elements of the UE to perform mobility measurements of one or more neighboring cells using a second beam broader than the first beam if the metric falls below a threshold value.

  • Patent number: 10543967
    Abstract: A container includes a lid having a peripheral flange which defines a lifting tab. The container includes a base having an upper peripheral rim. A bend line is formed in a surface of the base to define a bendable portion of the base. The bendable portion of the base receives and limits access to the lifting tab when the container is closed. A container includes a lid having a peripheral flange which defines a lifting tab. The lifting tab has a top surface and a bottom surface. The lid includes a protrusion extending downwardly from the bottom surface of the lifting tab. The container includes a base. The base has an aperture formed in a portion of the base to receive the protrusion of the lid when the container is closed.

  • Publication number: 20190322406
    Abstract: Disclosed are container base constructions and methods of making the same. Such container are adapted and configured to reduce or eliminate deformation of the base and/or sidewall when the container is filled and/or stacked. The containers have a sidewall that has a top end and a bottom end; and a base attached to the bottom end of the sidewall. The base of the container includes a center panel which is positioned above the bottom end of the sidewall and an outer convex section. In certain constructions, the center panel is flat. Alternatively, the center panel can be curved (e.g., convex).

  • Patent number: 10427842
    Abstract: A tamper-evident container formed by thermoforming includes a tub having a bottom and a sidewall forming an interior volume. The container has a lid with an edge extending peripherally outward therefrom which is configured to mate with the tub edge to close the container. The lid edge has an inner portion and an outer portion with a perforated section therebetween. The perforated section extends continuously around the entire periphery of the lid, whereby the outer portion forms a tamper-evident seal removable from the inner portion for removing the lid from the tub. Texture elements are distributed around the outer portion of the lid edge which are configured to provide a visual indication of the presence of the tamper-evident seal. The tub edge is disposed beneath the outer portion of the lid edge and extends peripherally outward so that a substantial part of the outer portion of the lid edge does not extend below the tub edge in a vertical direction of the container in an upright orientation.
