A childproof container apparatus, system and method. The apparatus, system and method may include a container body having therewithin a cavity; a cap capable of providing access to the cavity when opened; a collar about the container body and capable of impeding access to the cap; and at least one safety feature suitable, upon actuation, to allow the collar to slide to remove the impedance to accessing the cap. The container may further include a tamper evidencing feature at least partially physically associated with the cap. The at least one safety feature may include a plurality of tabs, or one or more buttons.

A retainable closure with tamper evident features is disclosed.

The present invention relates to a closure device (1) for a container (2) in which a flowable material (3) is stored, comprising a base element (4), which can be fastened on a container opening (5) of the container (2), a spout (11) with a dispensing opening (7), whereby the spout (11) is positioned inboard of the base element (4), and a lid (8) connected to the base element (4) by a hinge (12), whereby the lid (8) can be moved back and forth between a closed position (9) in which the lid (8) closes the dispensing opening (7) so that the spout (11) is not accessible and an open position (10) in which the spout (11) is accessible, tamper evidence indication means (13) for visually indicating if the lid (8) of the closure device (1) has once been moved out of its closed position (9), whereby the tamper evidence indication means (13) comprise a first indication ring (14) and at least a second indication ring (15) which is co-axially arranged in the first indication ring (14).

The present invention relates to a closure device (1) for a container (2) in which a flowable material (3) is stored, including a base element (4), which can be fastened on a container opening (5) of the container (2), a spout (11) with a dispensing opening (7), whereby the spout (11) is positioned inboard of the base element (4), and a lid (8) connected to the base element (4) by a hinge (12), whereby the lid (8) can be moved back and forth between a closed position (9) so that the spout (11) is not accessible and an open position (10) in which the spout (11) is accessible, tamper evidence indication structures (13) for visually indicating if the lid (8) of closure device (1) has once been moved out of its closed position (9).

An apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus can be a dashboard member. The dashboard member can include a panel member. The panel member can include a weakening portion integrally molded with the panel member to create a tear seam. The dashboard member can include a chute member integrally molded with the panel member. The chute member can support an air bag and direct the air bag through the tear seam.

An outer case in an electronic circuit unit is injection molded by setting the circuit board in a die and injection molding of the outer case by filling molten resin into a cavity in the die, in pressing at least a part of a front surface side of the mold exclusion part facing a non-cavity space by press member toward a rear surface side.

A childproof container apparatus, system and method. The apparatus, system and method may include a container body having therewithin a cavity; a cap capable of providing access to the cavity when opened; a collar about the container body and capable of impeding access to the cap; and at least one safety feature suitable, upon actuation, to allow the collar to slide to remove the impedance to accessing the cap. The container may further include a tamper evidencing feature at least partially physically associated with the cap. The at least one safety feature may include a plurality of tabs, or one or more buttons.

Collapsible containers and a method of their manufacture are disclosed herein. The collapsible containers have one or more collapsible wall sections and a stiff upper and lower tier. The wall sections have living hinges and three or more tiers between the hinges. A thermoplastic elastomer layer may join separately made portions of the container together. The containers may be made by molding and overmolding. The containers include inter alia bulk liquid containers, jugs, tubs, baskets, bottles, and food containers. The method of manufacturing includes placing a container component and a matching container body comprising a stiff first tier, a stiff second tier, and a collapsible wall section in a mold; assembling the container body with the container component to close one end of the container body; and overmolding a thermoplastic layer around the container body and the container component.

A case for protecting a portable electronic device includes a first member, a second member, and a flexible hinge member. The first member is removably attachable to a first portion of the portable electronic device for covering an outer surface of the first portion of the portable electronic device while not covering a display screen area of the portable electronic device. The second member of the case is removably attachable to a second portion of the portable electronic device for covering the outer surface of the second portion of the portable electronic device while not covering the display. The flexible hinge member is in proximity to a hinging portion of the portable electronic device when the case is attached. The flexible hinge member permits articulation of the portable electronic device when the case is attached to the portable electronic device due to flexing of a flexible material.

The present invention relates to a new closure for a container, the manufacturing precursor that is converted into the closure, and the method of closure manufacture. The closure is comprised of a cap (usually threaded), a retention ring (that keeps the closure assembly connected to the container), and a hinge and articulating band that connects the cap to the retention ring. The closure is made by three major steps in the method: (1) polymer molding the closure, (2) scoring/cutting the closure, and (3) stamping the hinge which reorients the polymer. The hinge and articulating band elements are manufactured so that the band articulates and changes shape as the closure is opened. By necessity, the cap and the retention ring must separate as the cap is lifted or unthreaded; the articulating nature of the hinge and band feature allows it to keep the cap and retention ring connected as they separate. Even after opening the container, the cap remains attached to the container for convenience and anti-littering purposes.
