Headgear which can be formed into a compact unit such as a carrying case comprising a headband portion and a bill portion, the bill portion being comprised of at least two bill sections which are hingedly connected to one another, the bill sections being made of a semi-rigid plastic having a shape in a relaxed position, which maintains the bill sections in an extended position, the bill sections being releasably formable into a substantially flat configuration such that when the headband is coll...

A collapsible container has a bottom formed of a plastic preform with grooves along the peripheral edge wall of the plastic preform. The side walls of the container are inserted into the grooves. A supporting base is fastened as a folding part or as folding parts to one or more side walls. The number of parts to be manipulated is reduced by the fact that the supporting base is no longer provided as a separate part. The labor associated with the supporting base is limited to folding the folding p...

A duct for containing a cable and method for mounting the cable therein include providing the duct with a collapsible or flexible wall movable between a contracted condition for mounting the duct in a conduit and an extended condition of increased cross-sectional area for inserting a cable in the duct. The duct is moved to its extended condition by an applied internal pressure and, after the cable has been inserted, the duct is returned to its contracted condition. The duct has a multiple layer ...
