Abstract: A cooler box includes a body portion and a cover portion pivotally turnably connected to each other via a hinge structure. The body portion has a storage opening and internally defines a storage space communicable with the storage opening; and includes, from an outer to an inner side, an outer shell, an insulation layer and an inner shell. The body portion further includes a binding frame assembled to an upper end thereof. The binding frame includes two substantially parallelly extended clamping wall portions, which together inwardly clamp on the outer shell, the insulation layer and the inner shell, such that the insulation layer is fixedly held in an enclosed space defined in between the binding frame, the outer shell and the inner shell. With the binding frame, different components of the cooler box can be more easily assembled together to reduce the assembling time and increase the productivity.

Abstract: To provide a better way of protecting cargo on flatbed trucks, railcars, and so forth, the present inventor, devised among other things a cargo containment system formed from a set of interconnectable weatherproof panels that can be configured to define a rectilinear containment structure over and around a volume of cargo.

Abstract: A car top carrier with a carrier bottom and a carrier top are be connected by a hinge without the use of tools. The carrier bottom and the carrier top, which form the car top carrier, are nestable when not connected by the hinge.

Abstract: A rolling luggage bag includes a cover coupled to a base, the base including a first side opposite a second side and a bottom face extending there between, a first wheel and a second wheel coupled to the base, the first and second wheels configured to rotate about an axis of rotation and separated by a first distance along the axis of rotation, at least a portion of each of the first and second wheels projecting from the first side and from the bottom face, and a third wheel and a fourth wheel coupled to the bottom face, the third and fourth wheels configured to independently swivel about a respective swivel axis and separated by a second distance extending between the swivel axes. When the rolling luggage is in an upright position, the first, second, third, and fourth wheels all contact a surface the luggage bag stands on.

Abstract: A composed element, such as a piece of furniture, wherein the composed element comprises at least a rear wall, as well as a number of constructional parts forming a whole in which the rear wall has to be provided. The rear wall forms the rear side of the composed element and includes one or more rear wall parts. The composed element comprises seats for installing at least one of the rear wall parts, which are configured such that the rear wall part can be slid into the seats starting from the rear side of the composed element from a position differing from the final plane in which the rear wall part will be situated in the final condition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a ladder with a design such that storage is incorporated into the ladder body, most notably the rails, by providing for a storage area for tools and other things, which will be incorporated into the manufacture of the ladder. An alternative version is a storage unit approximately the width of the rails of existing ladders, which can be fixedly attached thereto, providing a storage area for tools and other things.

Abstract: In a vehicle that features a luggage compartment with a cargo opening that can be closed, as well as an operating element that can be actuated in order to open the luggage compartment, an auxiliary function is provided for a function other than the function of opening the luggage compartment and assigned to the operating element while the cargo opening is open such that no additional operating elements.

Abstract: An apparatus for at least one of the transport, storage, and display of one or more items of at least one of apparel and accessories is provided. The apparatus includes at least one crib defined by a bottom plate, a back plate, and first and second side plates, each of the at least one crib for having disposed therein one or more items of at least one of apparel and accessories. The at least one crib includes the bottom plate that is one of square and rectangular in shape, the back plate that is one of square and rectangular in shape, and the first and second side plates that have the same shape and that are facing each other. Each of the back plate and first and second side plates are perpendicular to the bottom plate. One edge of each of the back plate and first and second side plates is coupled to a respective one edge of the bottom plate. One edge of each of first and second side plates is coupled to a respective one edge of the back plat.

Abstract: A container, incorporated with a multi-functional edge frame arrangement, includes a container body including a base panel and a plurality side panels connected to edge portions of said base panel respectively. The multi-functional edge frame arrangement includes a plurality of edge frames, each having a main frame having a L-shaped cross section and two edge holders provided at two side ends of the main frame. An edge portion of the side panel and an edge portion of the base panel are arranged to securely mount along the edge holders respectively so as to connect the side panel with the base panel. At least one of the edge frames is constructed to form a utility edge frame and the multi-functional edge frame arrangement further includes a mounting unit provided on the utility edge frame and a container accessory including a reinforcing member shaped and sized to fittedly mount on the mounting unit.

Abstract: A luggage carrier assembly mountable to the rear of a passenger van or the like, including a first rigid frame adapted to be positioned in a substantially vertical plane adjacent the rear side of a van to which the luggage carrier is mounted. A second rigid frame is connected to the first rigid frame and extends substantially normal to one side of the first rigid frame along the lower edge thereof. The two interconnected frames are movable together. Clamping brackets are provided for pivotally supporting the interconnected first and second frames on the rear of the van for pivotation about a horizontal axis extending parallel to the ground and transversely across the van. Luggage enclosing panels are connected to, and define with the two frames, a compartment for containing luggage.

Abstract: The novel, knocked-down storage trunk comprising the present invention includes two rigid, molded plastic shells and pairs of side and end walls. In the assembled condition a first pair of lower, inner and outer, concentric clamp rings are used to secure the lower edge of the side and end walls to the lower shell. A second, upper pair of inner and outer concentric clamp rings are secured to the upper edges of the side and end walls. Mating inner and outer vertical corner members are secured to each other and are captured in the upper and lower pairs of concentric clamp rings. The upper shell is hingedly secured to the rear side wall and conventional locks extend between and serve to couple the upper shell and the front side wall. In the knocked-down condition the upper shell nests within the lower shell and the lower shell is seated within the lower concentric pair of clamp rings.
