Abstract: Perfume bottle structure including an upper casing and a lower casing mated with each other. The upper and lower casings are respectively housed in two frame bodies and the surfaces of the upper and lower casings are disposed with replaceable decorative articles. A perfume container is placed in the lower casing and connected with a base seat for firmly locating the perfume container. A fixing seat is mounted at bottom end of the lower casing for freely firmly locating the perfume bottle at desired places. The top end of the upper casing is formed with a cylindrical cavity in which a cylindrical sleeve is fitted. A decorative cap is engaged with the cylindrical sleeve for opening/closing the perfume bottle.

Abstract: A blank for forming a multi-sided container suitable for storing and/or shipping live crustaceans, such as lobsters, shrimp, and crayfish is disclosed. The blank has a base member to which one or more thermal conditioning wall members are foldably connected. In addition, one or more infiltration barrier wall members are foldably connected to the base opposite the thermal conditioning wall member or members. The thermal conditioning wall member or members and infiltration wall member or members have partial side wall members extending substantially orthogonally from them in an aligned relationship. Thus, the thermal conditioning wall member and infiltration barrier wall member can be folded to bring their partial side wall members into contact, thereby forming one or more multi-sided containers for live crustaceans.

Abstract: An articulable food container. The food container is articulable from and between a first open position to a second closed position. In the first open position the food container can receive food. Additionally, the user may eat from the food container while it is in the first open position. In the second closed position, the food container covers or encloses the food. The closed position is useful for storing the food, heating the food, transporting the food between the point of service and the point of consumption, and/or disposing of the remnants of the food once the meal is completed. The food container may take the form of a plate, bowl, tray, clam shell, or other known configurations.

Abstract: A clamshell package for holding and displaying a product including first and second outer clamshell members each having three dimensionally shaped pocket areas for holding a portion of the product. The clamshell members also each include respective sealing portions which may be sealed together in a permanent manner. The package further includes selectively engageable fastening structure disposed on the first and second outer clamshell members generally adjacent the first and second sealing portions. When the sealing portions are removed, such as by cutting off the sealing portions, the selectively engageable fastening structure may be used to allow subsequent selective access to the product. A hinge portion may also be provided and may be formed from a pair of the sealing portions of the clamshell members to allow hinged movement of the clamshell members after other sealing portions have been removed by the user.

Abstract: A means is provided for packaging disc drives and other information-storage devices in a manner that reduces transmittal of shock to the packaged device. The device is placed in a static-dissipative package comprising an upper and lower portion, each of which is externally ribbed to absorb shock. Further anti-impact protection is provided by internal buttresses that cushion the packaged device. The package is preferably a unitary article molded from PVC plastic sheeting, with the upper and lower portions joined at an accordion-like hinge. The upper and lower portions nest together at the peripheral edges, providing a labyrinthine path (in effect, a seal) that prevents passage of contaminants. Shock transmittal (relative to a bare drive) is reduced by a factor of approximately 5-7.

Abstract: A case composed of at least two shells. In a preferred embodiment, two semi-cylindrical shells are provided. The shells are coupled for relative rotation about an axis and are sized so that each shell segment nests within an adjacent shell. The shells are rotatable between a closed position, in which the shells cooperate to define an enclosed compartment, and an open position, in which said shells nest inside one another to provide access to the compartment.

Abstract: An improved garbage or refuse container having a substantially rectangular shaped container with blunt or smooth edges. The container includes a top portion, bottom portion and body portion for retaining refuse. The body portion forms the walls of the container and includes a door having at least one fastening mechanism integrally disposed therein for securing the door to the body portion. The door is contiguously and pivotally formed or joined with the body as a single material element. A receiving portion of the body with the door also includes a retaining plate or lip on a separate and opposing end of the body and is formed also as a single contiguous material element with the body for matingly receiving and retaining the door in a closed configuration along a peripheral edge portion. Proximate and adjacent the retaining lip is disposed within the body at least one connector element for respectively connecting thereto at least one snap fastener.

Abstract: A portable storage and display case for toy action figurines. Compartments, located within the case, allow the user to strategically place the figurines within the case. Transparent walls facilitate use of the case for display purposes in addition to allowing the user to quickly assess its contents and easily locate desired figurines within the case.
