A latch structure for a container having mating first and second portions and an improved container assembly, wherein said latch structure has improved strength characteristics. The side legs of the generally rectangular latch are canted so that the outer surface thereof falls away from the inner surface thereof.

A mold for controlling the weight and wall thickness distribution in a blow molded plastic manufactured article or a family or related articles involves simultaneous formation of the manufactured article and a waste article. The waste article is removed and recycled to manufacture further articles. The waste article forming chamber increases the apparent depth of the manufactured article chamber to create a larger apparent surface area, so that the parison is being blown over a much larger surface area, creating a reduced actual part weight and actual wall thickness.

An apparatus is disclosed for preparing a tubular parison, which is continuously extruded in an extrusion direction from an extrusion head, and for subsequently transferring the parison to a blow molding machine. The apparatus provides improved control of the wall thickness of the parison and can be used with particular advantage in making articles requiring parisons of large diameter and length. The apparatus includes a parison stretching mechanism that grasps and seals the parison at one location along its length and stretches the parison at a controlled rate while being extruded in the extrusion direction. The apparatus also sequentially severs sections of the parison from the remaining continuously extruded portion and transfers each section to a stationary blow molding machine out of the path of this remaining portion. These operations are performed by a parison transfer mechanism that grasps and seals the parison at a second location along its length intermediate the one location and the extrusion head to thereby define a parison section. The section is severed from the remaining portion of the parison, is transferred in a direction transverse to the extrusion direction away from the extrusion head and is subsequently delivered to the molding machine in a direction generally parallel to the extrusion direction.

A tote device for an article, such as a chainsaw, having a main body and a member projecting from one side of the body, comprises a base for supporting the body when at rest. The base is formed with an upwardly open recess configured to receive at least a portion of the body. A scabbard is mountable on the member to enclose and protect at least a portion of it. A first linking arrangement links the scabbard, when mounted on the member, to the base in the region of the one side of the body and a second linking arrangement links the base to the body, when received in the recess, at a location remote from the one side. Accordingly, when the body and member are lifted, the scabbard is also lifted. Further, interaction of the scabbard and body with the base, through the first and second linking arrangements, also lifts the base.
