A group of beverage containers that are each uniquely identified within the group, each having a container label and a removable cap. There are a plurality of beverage containers removably held together in a group such that a consumer is able to remove one or more containers from the group. There are the same plurality of separate identifying graphics, each graphic of the plurality of graphics unique from all other graphics of the plurality of separate identifying graphics. Each container has one of the plurality of separate identifying graphics applied to both its cap and its label, wherein each container of the group is thus uniquely identified relative to all other containers of the group. If a cap is removed from a container of the group it can be matched up to its original container by matching the unique identifying graphic that is applied both to the container and to the cap.

A device for holding and guiding rotation of aircraft spark plugs is herein disclosed. The device includes a main body, openings defined in the main body, characters of text disposed on a top surface of the main body, and guide lines. Each opening is sized to receive one of the spark plugs. Each character of text is positioned adjacent a respective opening of the openings. Further, each guide line runs from one opening to another opening to serve as a guide for rotating the spark plugs.

A can body printing system includes: an identification information storage part 302 that stores identification information of a can body; an identification information reading part 303 that reads the identification information attached to the can body; a matching part 304 that matches the read identification information to the identification information stored in the identification information storage part 302; and a print processing part 308 that, upon receiving a matching result, reads print image information from a print image information storage part 307 to perform processing for printing onto the can body by inkjet printing.

2D code patterns, such as digital watermark patterns, are formed on plastic objects by injection molding. In some implementations, a marked cell of the code pattern is not formed by a single mark on the mold surface, but by multiple discrete marks. Such marks can be exceedingly small (e.g., 50 microns or less—smaller than the width of a human hair), yet the resulting code pattern on the molded object is still readable from a distance. The small scale of the marks assures that the code pattern does not detract from object aesthetics, while also speeding the mold-marking process. Style transfer networks are employed in some implementations. The detailed technologies facilitate digital marking and identification of a great number of consumer plastic objects, thereby aiding recovery of such objects for recycling. Many other features and arrangements are also detailed.

Provided is a cap of a container. The cap has an image formed thereon and includes a first part and a second part. When the cap is opened, the first part is separated from a container body of the container, and the second part remains on the container body of the container. The image is formed on a region straddling both a side surface of the first part and a side surface of the second part.

A pre-packaged system for covering a roll of toilet paper including a plurality of sheets of material cut into a generally rectangular, predetermined size configured to cover the roll of toilet paper, each of the plurality of sheets comprising a first side and a second side. The first side of the plurality of sheets may include an ornamental design. The second side of the plurality of sheets may include a wrapping indicator, the wrapping indicator providing visual indications for a user to follow to wrap at least one of the plurality of sheets around the roll of toilet paper. The system may include a package that is at least partially transparent, the package housing the plurality of sheets of material in a folded configuration, the package allowing consumers to view the plurality of sheets of material without opening the package.

A beverage container sleeve made from two-ply rolled wood veneer, having an ovoid open end, an internal cavity, and a circular closed base, whereby the outer surface of the device may have printed thereon an aesthetic design and the base may have formed into its underside a bottle cap removing component; and a method for manufacturing same.

A stackable cargo container apparatus has a frame assembly formed by interconnected structural members, a substantially planar base, interconnecting side walls and at least one personnel access door. At least one lifting harness member of unitary or singular construction is operationally attached to the frame assembly, and permits lifting of the cargo container apparatus from its bottom and away from welds or other possible weak points. An integrated cargo weight measurement assembly permits quick and efficient determination of cargo weight placed on the planar base, and includes a digital display or other output device.

The removable sealed closure portion of the dispensing tube of a flexible thermoformed dispensing package for flowable materials is provided with an enlarged safety tab that can be integrally formed with, or separately secured to the sealed closure portion, the enlarged safety tab being dimensioned and configured to avoid inadvertent ingestion by a human or small pet when the tab is removed to open the dispensing tube in preparation for dispensing the product. In addition to functioning as a “flag”, the surfaces of which can be printed with source-identifying indicia and other consumer information, the enlarged safety tab formed in an open-ended folded configuration and provided with interior fields of repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive, serves as a protective cover and seal when removed and placed over the open end of the dispensing tube to preserve any remaining material in the container portion of the package.

A container and accessory system comprising a bottom, at least one wall, and at least one accessory. The exterior of the wall is comprised of a plurality of holes. The accessory has a face and a peg which is configured to be insertable into the holes to allow the accessory to be removably attached to the container. This allows accessories to be attached to and removed from the container without disturbing the contents of the container.
