A crimping unit (1) having a first plate (10); a first lever (50) equipped with a winding wheel (54), a second lever (60) equipped with a crushing wheel (64), a winding actuator connected to the first lever (50), and a crushing actuator connected to the second lever (60). The winding actuator and the crushing actuator are governed by an electronic control unit (7) to vary the distance between the winding wheel (54) and/or the crushing wheel (65) of the first axis according to the angular position of the first plate (10) around the first axis.

Provided are a simple, quick, and low-processing cost method capable of reliably separating part of an accommodated substance accommodated in a vessel only by simple mechanical operation while maintaining a hermetically-sealed state without any contact with an outside atmosphere, as well as a vessel with which the method may be used. A separable vessel comprises a first vessel portion, a second vessel portion which is contiguous with the first vessel portion, a fracture-inducing portion formed between the first vessel portion and the second vessel portion, and a self-fusing material provided on an outer surface so as to cover the fracture-inducing portion; and may contain an accommodated substance therein.

Container with fold-out opening, resulting from the suitable bending and folding of a laminar body that has bending lines that define four rectangular walls, which have a common upper flap and another, common lower flap with bending lines; the upper flap has two folding lines that continue two transverse bending lines defining a wall that is in a central position; said folding lines defining three rectangular portions of the upper flap; the central portion having the same axis of symmetry as the central wall; each of the portions is provided with additions opposite the contact thereof with the walls; the addition having a tear line that divides the addition into two dividing parts; the portion having a slot and the addition having a tab in the dividing part thereof and which can be engaged and inserted into the slot.

A tamper evident closure includes a first snap, a second snap, a tear strip connected to the second snap, and a first projection extending around three sides of the first snap. In a closed position, the second snap is positioned in a cavity of the first snap, and the first projection surrounds three sides of the second snap that is positioned in the cavity of the first snap.

A coating composition for a food or beverage can that includes an emulsion polymerized latex polymer formed by combining an ethylenically unsaturated monomer component with an aqueous dispersion of a water-dispersible polymer.

System and process for creation of a single-serve shot-glass with a flared shaft, curved brim and peel-off lid. A lip attachment can be applied to the sealed shot-glass to define the flare shaft. The shot glass has a flat top edge to facilitate sealing of the lid. Embodiments can use a vibration plate, gears and/or conveyer belts to create the sealed shot-glasses with flared shafts. The lip or ring can create the flared shaft when integrated with the glass.

A printable blank comprises a sheet with a with outline perforation lines defining a periphery of an object. The sheet is capable of being passed through a printer to have an image printed on it. The sheet also comprises run-out perforation lines extending from the periphery to edges of the sheet, wherein the sheet can be folded along the run-out perforations to detach the object from the sheet. A method for creating custom print structures includes running a printable blank sheet through a printer and then bending the sheet along run-out perforation lines to detach an object from the sheet. The object can then be folded along scored fold lines to assemble it into a three-dimensional structure.
