Abstract: In various embodiments, apparatuses for receiving and supporting one or more components during processing thereof at process temperatures greater than approximately 1000° C. feature refractory metal shelves separated by refractory metal support posts.

Abstract: A plastic bottle includes an expanded blow-molding preform of plastic film. The expanded preform has a base configured to support the bottle in a free-standing upright position, a neck containing a fitment, and seams including only a single full-height seam extending from the base to the neck.

Abstract: The present invention presents a heat dissipating system for protecting a hot water tank dispenser from damage during a dry operation. The dispenser includes a hot water tank with a plastic wall. The hot water tank contains a heating element extending through a plurality of bushings mounted to the plastic wall. The heat dissipating system comprises at least one heat dissipation plate mounted to the plastic wall by the bushing and isolated from the heating element by the bushing.

Abstract: A container (1) provided with profiled wall and roof panels (2, 3) which are secured to each other via welded U-profiles (5). One leg (6') of the U-profiles (5) comprises an inwardly extending flap (8) for the subsequent mounting of transverse suspension devices (9). The container can hereby be equipped with suspension devices for the suspension of goods at any time in operation, without it being necessary to take the container out of service to perform a time-consuming subsequent mounting by riveting or welding of rails or profiles.

Abstract: A safety storage enclosure for housing containers of hazardous material is formed using wall components that have complementary edge formations that extend vertically and connect with elongate framing members to provide post-like supports. The wall components connect at their lower end regions with a welded, generally rectangular base assembly, and at their upper end regions with a correspondingly configured roof assembly, with the post-like supports strengthening the enclosure by providing rigid, columnar structures that extend from the base to the roof assembly. Front, back and opposed end walls of a variety of lengths can be formed using selected sets of "standard" wall panels and wall-corner panels, and "door panels" can be substituted for selected wall panels.
