The first layer of fabric is joined to the second layer of fabric along an attachment line extending from a first of two spaced points of contact at or adjacent the first edge and the second edge to the second point of contact to define a generally U-shaped pocket having opposed open and closed ends. The U-shaped pocket is of a sufficient size to hold a solid piece of soap. The open end is at or adjacent the first and second edges. The closed end is spaced from the first and second edges.

A self-adhesive folding label (2) according to the invention is made by punching and application to the upper side of the label web and configured such that one or more folding parts (5) may be folded inwards below a bottom part (6) and a top part (4). These folding parts (5) have a smaller extent that the bottom and top parts so that no adhesion will occur. Hereby, opening and folding of the label may take place in a simple manner without any risk of tearing of the individual parts.

A game joystick includes a lower half body, an upper half body covering on the lower half body, a battery cover covering on the upper half body and elastic elements mounted in the upper half body. The upper half body is concaved downward to form a plurality of buckling slots. An opening is opened in one sidewall of each buckling slot. The battery cover protrudes downward to form a plurality of buckling strips of which each defines a first pushing surface and a second pushing surface. The elastic element has a first elastic arm fastened in the upper half body, and a second elastic arm passing through the opening to elastically project in the buckling slot. The second elastic arms cooperate with the first pushing surfaces and the second pushing surfaces of the buckling strips inserted into the buckling slots to close or open the battery cover easily.

The present invention relates to a manhole (10) with a locking device, and more particular to a manhole with a locking device, which comprises a manhole frame (20) having a plurality of insertion slots (24) inwardly protruded from an inner circumferential surface thereof, each insertion slot (24) having a latching protrusion (26) formed in such a manner that a top surface of the insertion slots (24) is partially opened; a bearing member (30) having a female screw portion formed on the center thereof and a plurality of fastening pieces (36) radially formed outwardly from the outer circumferential edge thereof, so that the bearing member (30) is detachably fastened to the manhole frame (20); and a manhole cover (40) having a through-hole (41) centrally formed therein so that an upper portion of the vertical screw rod (42) is rotatably inserted into the through-hole (41), the vertical screw rod (42) having a male screw portion (45) formed on the lower portion thereof so as to be threadably fastened to the female screw portion (35) of the bearing member, a head portion (43) formed on the upper portion thereof so as to abut against an upside surface of the manhole cover (40), and a support portion (44) formed on the upper portion thereof so as to abut against an underside of the manhole cover (40), so that the manhole cover (40) is closed by rotating the head portion (43) of the vertical screw rod (42). Thus, in a case of the manhole (10) mounted on a vehicle road, the manhole cover (40) is prevented from being separated from the manhole frame (20) without permission by a vehicle running at a high speed as well as from frictional noise generated between the manhole cover (40) and the manhole frame (20). Further, in a case of the manhole (10) mounted on the waterside of a river, the manhole (10) maintains its watertightness and is readily opened and closed by an operator.

A clam shell type receptacle includes: a case assembly including a bottom case and a top case, the bottom case having a bottom wall and a peripheral wall which together form a recessed reception space, and the top case having a top wall and a peripheral wall which together form a recess, the top case being coupled to the bottom case so as to open or close the reception space; and a locking/release unit for locking the reception space in the closed state and for releasing the reception space from the locked state. The disclosed receptacle has a simplified external appearance, can be easily opened or closed, and the closed state of the reception space can be stably maintained.

A collapsible support and shopping walker is based on the same structural principle used with four legged camping chairs. Eight lightweight tubes of equal length pivot in eight corner supports forming four cross braces. This four-sided arrangement or cage can then flex in one direction from being fully collapsed to fully extended. Flexible fabric is attached across four corners to this cage allowing it to open about half-way between the collapsed state and full extension. The suspended flexible fabric can now be used as a seat. Collapsible diagonal supports made of four aluminum members of equal length, hinged at each end, form a “spider” which provides stability and enables easy opening and closing of the cage by moving the spider head up and down like an umbrella. In order to provide a stable chair or walker the spider must be lockable with the seat in the open position. This is arranged by letting the spider over toggle or go over its opening tipping point which stretches the fabric fully and tightens all the joints of the chair.
