Benefits of technology

This patented inventor describes a type of container that can keep things safe from water damage during transportation. It has several technical benefits: it's easy to make up at home, makes sure everything stays clean even if there get dirty due to rainwater spills, provides strength against external pressure like windbags, tools, and peoples carrying them safely inside, allows for flexibility in design options such as making it suitable for various applications where one person needs access, and offers space saving capabilities compared to existing designs.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patents relates to improving the stability of five sized openings made out of a flat plane material used for holding liquids during use such as bath tubes or spasms due to external forces like gravity loadings applied over time. Examples can occur where the materials have insufficient bondability between certain parts (such as corners) leading to separation issues if they come into contact again after assembly. Additionally, existing methods involve adding extra components beyond what was needed because these added structures could affect other characteristics of the structure.

Embodiment Construction

[0186]Shown in FIG. 1,a; is a plan view of the preferred embodiment in a flat and unassembled state, and comprising a plurality of bend lines with the substrates interior portion, and notched or cut away areas (32) within the perimeter edges of the body. A first portions of bend lines (1) parallel the substrate's longest length, and are spaced inwardly to determine a side walls height. A second portions of bend lines (2) parallel the substrate's shortest length and are distanced inwardly from the substrates perimeter edge to define two interlocking flaps (20) which are hingedly connected to the end walls (18). A third portions of bend lines (3) define the end walls (18) height and are parallel with and located further inwardly than the second portions (2) to perpendicularly nearly abut or abut to conjoin the first portions (1). A fourth portions of bend lines (4) extend inwardly and angularly from approximate corner areas to locations where the first (1) and third portions (3) nearly a

Abstract

A generally leak proof open top self securing container for a human user and or their objects forms either a water craft or small toy boat or floating tackle tray; and pending a final size and or material which the no-parts container is formed of. The container comprises end walls (18) having hingedly connected interlocking flaps (20) having notches (22) that interlock with other notches (12) (13) (15) located within the edges of the side walls (10) to wedge-lock and laterally secure the end walls (18) between the interlocked locations and exteriorly located triangular shape hingedly-mated corner projections (24). No fastening parts, or adhesives, or tabs or interiorly located tab receiving apertures are required to retain the structural stability of the preferred embodiment. One alternative embodiment includes additional bend lines (5) extending the width to enable a compact folding. Alternative embodiments include a hingedly connected side wall strengthening flap (14) (16) having perforated portions (17) within the bend line (6) for optional removal. Final embodiments include closed cell floatation foam (40), flute channel plugs (44) (46) (48), side wall apertures (26), connecting rods (39), and elastic cords (36).
