A method for assembling a cover assembly is also described. | 12-06-2012 |
| 20130134175 | SELF-CLOSING CAP - A sealing lid assembly used in connection with a service port, the sealing lid assembly including a cap; a plug extending from an underside of the cap and at least partially receivable in the service port, a first seal supported on the plug and extending radially outward therefrom to sealingly engage the service port when the cap is in a closed position; and a biasing assembly adapted to urge the cap toward the closed position. | 05-30-2013 |
| 220828000 | Counterweight | 1 |
| 20100288786 | Bird carcass container - The bird carcass container includes a closed container body adapted to be mounted to a sidewall of a facility. A tubular extension or inlet extends from a side of the container body to the interior of the facility. The inlet includes an access door accessible from the facility interior so that users may deposit dead carcasses into the container body. A trap door is disposed on the bottom of the container body and selectively opened by a bracket actuator attached to the trap door. The door is maintained in a closed position by a system of counterweights. The bracket actuator is operated on by the bucket of a skid steer to open the trap door. The interior of the container includes sloping sides forming a chute towards the bottom of the container body. The rear side of the container may also include an access door. | 11-18-2010 |
| 220829000 | Leaf spring | 2 |
| 20110309098 | OPENABLE AND CLOSABLE CONTAINER - An openable and closeable container that includes a container body having a take-out opening; an opening-closing lid provided on the container body swingably about a swing axis X-X on a base end side, the opening-closing lid opening/closing the take-out opening; and plate rubber (an elastic member) provided between the container body and the opening-closing lid. A spring body is provided on the base end side of the opening-closing lid and a sloping portion (a braking portion) with which the spring body comes into contact is provided on the container body side. The spring body is gradually compressed from the state where the opening-closing lid is closed toward the state where the opening-closing lid is opened. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20140339247 | HINGED CLOSURE LID - A hinged closure lid made of plastic for placing onto a container, has a main part which has a dispenser opening, a lid which is mounted pivotably on the main part and, in a closure position resting on the main part, closes the dispenser opening, and an actuating part which is connected integrally to the main part and is mounted thereon so as to be adjustable between an inoperative position and an actuating position. The lid can be adjusted from the closure position in the direction of an open position when the actuating part is in the actuating position. The actuating part here is connected to the main part via at least one flexible web serving as a predetermined breaking point, the web is destroyed when the actuating part is first adjusted into the actuating position. | 11-20-2014 |
| 220830000 | Coil spring | 4 |
| 20110155755 | Trash Bin - A cover means for a trash bin, the cover means comprises a base member, which has a first end and a second end, including a compartment formed at the first end thereof and an opening defined between the first and second ends thereof, thereby to throw trash into the trash bin from the opening; a cover member including a cover portion and a connected element; at least one elastic means, each elastic means including an elastic element having a first end provided at the compartment and a second end coupled to the connected element; wherein the cover member can be rotated between a first position and a second position; while in the second position of the cover member, the elastic element is released to lift the cover member upward, with the cover portion being completely exposed from the base member outward. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20120248131 | QUICK OPEN STRUCTURE FOR A TOOL BOX - A quick open structure for a tool box contains a body including an upper housing, a lower housing, two retaining portions, and two bearing portions; the lower and the lower housings including a first and a second chambers individually, and the first chamber including two grooves respectively and a limiting element extending therefrom, each groove including an opening, the second chamber including a receiving member; wherein the first chamber is provided to receive a locking device and includes a pressing member and an engaging member, the pressing member includes a larger-area press portion and two side straps in response to the grooves, each side strap includes a hole to receive a returning spring, and a first and a second axial rotating portions include a first orifice and a second orifice to insert two shafts respectively, each shaft includes a resilient element, the engaging member includes a fastening block. | 10-04-2012 |
| 20130161345 | PACKAGING FOR CONTAINING PRODUCTS, IN PARTICULAR COSMETIC PREPARATIONS - The packaging includes a container provided with an opening at the top and bounding a housing designed to receive the product, a lid designed to close the opening of the container and a deformable membrane borne by the lid to ensure the leak-tightness of the housing when the lid is in a closed position. The deformable membrane includes a generally flexible central wall surrounded by a generally rigid annular rim which is urged in the axial direction of closure by spring element bearing on a base of the lid such that the annular rim bears in a leak-tight manner on an annular bearing surrounding the opening of the container when the lid is in the closed position and the central wall may be deformed as a result of the differences in pressure prevailing on either side of the deformable membrane. The packaging may be used in particular for cosmetic preparations. | 06-27-2013 |
