A laundry basket for collecting the laundry to be washed, including a base, an upper frame, an upper cover, two substantially C-shaped supporting boards and a shade body. Each corner of the top face of the base is disposed with an arch projection diametrically directed to the center of the base. A top face of the base is disposed with an array of ventilation holes. The edges of the bottom face are disposed with downward extending waved flanges to form multiple legs. The edges of the bottom face of the upper frame are formed with a higher inner wall and two lower middle and outer walls with equal height. Each corner and each side of the inner wall respectively have several corner ribs and restriction ribs outward extending to the space between the middle and outer walls. The corner ribs and restriction ribs have a height equal to that of the inner wall, whereby the left and right sides of the upper frame are respectively formed with two substantially C-shaped receiving channels similar to the C-shaped supporting boards. The shade body is stretched and firmly retained by the supporting boards so as to achieve a better stability and resistance against heavy load. The supporting boards are more firmly associated with the upper frame and the base so as to avoid disassembly of the laundry basket during carriage.

A container for sterilization of medical devices. A container of modular construction is described comprising separable sides, separable corner pieces, and a separable bottom panel. Two opposing sides are of a modular length, and thus by substituting sides of a different length the interior volume of the container may be changed. The container also includes a removeable lid with latching mechanisms on opposing ends. The lid and latching mechanisms are generally flush with the exterior surface of the container.

A tool cabinet including an upper cover, a bottom board, a case body and a shelf accessory. The case body includes rotatably interconnected case boards, which are foldable with each other. The upper cover and the bottom board are loosely rabbeted into the case body. Without disconnecting each case board, each case board can be folded by pulling out a pin in the upper cover, turning over the upper cover, then taking out the shelf and the upright column, releasing the block rabbeting, and folding the case boards.

A modular container for sterilization of medical devices. In various embodiments the container includes a slidable button for releasing the lid, the button being contained within a pocket. Other embodiments include a lid and container bottom arranged so that a pair of stacked containers have a gap between the lid and bottom to facilitate drying of the container contents. Yet other embodiments include arrangement of the container sidewalls to fit within the sides of the lid.

A self-expanding, foldable, portable structure for temporary shelter. The structure includes two opposing flexible side panels each having a continuous respective border thereabout and a continuous frame member fabricated of a foldable spring material for expanding and maintaining each side panel in a generally flat expanded configuration. Two opposing flexible end panels, a flexible roof panel, and preferably a floor panel are disposed between and connected to the side panels. A tension member is positionable between two opposing aligned sites of opposing frame members for maintaining under pressure the frame members in a spaced relationship from each other. A mat member having a frame fabricated of a foldable spring material can be provided for insertion to provide an inside floor surface between the opposing side panels while simultaneously tensionally distancing the side panels from each other to aid in stabilization of side panel positioning. The portable structure thus formed maximizes interior horizontal and vertical space while simultaneously providing collapsible transport coupled with self expandability for one person utility.
