A dovetail and slot assembly made from panels comprising layered corrugated Kraft. The applications are multiple, ranging from items of furniture such as chairs, tables, benches, shelves, items for loading products, display units, and packagings. The assembly systems are also designed to be set up in such a way that it is practical and easy for the user without needing to use tools. It enables and facilitates the transport of the structures prior to assembly in parts arranged in a compact manner, occupying a relatively small space.

Kraft dovetail and slot assembly

A mortise and tenon assembly comprising the insertion of tenons of multilayered corrugated Kraft into mortises in panels of corrugated Kraft. The tenons have a folding flap and tuck slot that form an interlocking connection. The assembly is practical and easy for the user to construct without needing to use tools. It enables and facilitates the transport of the structures prior to assembly in parts arranged in a compact manner, occupying a relatively small space.

Kraft mortise and tenon assembly

A furniture assembly and structuring systems comprising the insertion of tenons of multilayered corrugated Kraft into mortises in panels of corrugated Kraft in order to obtain furniture structures and other structures that are sturdy, as well as being light and self-supporting and optionally made from recyclable material. The tenons have a folding flap and tuck slot that form an interlocking connection. The invention also relates to a furniture assembly and structuring systems made from panels comprising layered corrugated Kraft comprising a dovetail and slot assembly. The applications are multiple, ranging from items of furniture such as chairs, tables, benches, shelves, items for loading products, display units, and packagings. The assembly systems are also designed to be set up in such a way that it is practical and easy for the user without needing to use tools. It enables and facilitates the transport of the structures prior to assembly in parts arranged in a compact manner, occupying a relatively small space.

A process for manufacturing a package of folded absorbent articles is disclosed. In one embodiment, the process includes providing a plurality of absorbent cores, and embossing at least one fold line into each core, each fold line defining a fold region. The process further includes folding each core along the fold region of each fold line to create a plurality of folded absorbent garments, and placing the plurality of folded absorbent garments into a container. In particular embodiments, each core can include two transversely opposed absorbent ears. The process can include folding each core along the fold region of each fold line to move each ear closer to a longitudinal centerline of the core to create a plurality of folded absorbent garments. A package of folded absorbent articles is also disclosed.

A vaginal insert device includes a support segment having a distal end and a proximal end, the support segment defining a support segment plane; and a stabilizing segment extending from the distal end of the support segment, the stabilizing segment defining a stabilizing segment plane, wherein the stabilizing segment plane is generally perpendicular to the support segment plane when the vaginal insert device is in an in-use configuration. A vaginal insert device system including the vaginal insert device can also include an applicator coupled to the vaginal insert device when the vaginal insert device is in an insertion configuration.

A package that is opened by deforming or bending the package along the die cut on the surface of the package is disclosed. The package will fracture or break at a die cut providing an opening in the package to access the contents inside. The package is formed with a semi-rigid layer affixed to a flexible backing layer forming an inner cavity. A die cut extends from at least an area adjacent one edge of the semi-rigid layer to at least an area adjacent another edge of the semi-rigid layer to provide a fracture point for the package to break. At least a portion of the die cut extends along both the lateral width and the longitudinal width of the semi-rigid layer to allow a greater surface area of the substrate to be accessible. Thus, dispensing of the substrate is easier for the user.
