A method of manufacturing a coated paperboard container includes: providing a coated paperboard bottom blank, the coated paperboard bottom blank comprising a paperboard substrate and a first barrier coating layer on a first outermost surface of the paperboard substrate; heating the coated paperboard bottom blank; shaping the heated coated paperboard bottom blank, thereby forming a peripheral skirt portion about a periphery of a bottom wall portion of the coated paperboard bottom blank; and sealing a coated paperboard sidewall to the first barrier coating layer of the peripheral skirt portion.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for forming containers. The containers may be cans, including composite cans. The apparatus may include a cylindrical mandrel and a blank may be formed into a cylindrical tube around the mandrel. Rotational apparatuses may engage portions of a blank that may be in a flat configuration and may rotate the portions around the outward cylindrical surface of the mandrel. Free edges of the tubular blank may be sealed by a sealing strip that may be T-shaped in cross section. A cup may be installed in an end opening, such as a bottom end, of the cylindrical tube. The cup may be sealed in the end opening by a seaming process using a seaming apparatus.

The invention relates to a polygonal container comprising a tubular polygonal body (10) with an even number of flat faces (11) numbering more than four, which is formed by a strip of corrugated cardboard (19) rolled up at least two full turns and adhered to itself by means of lines of glue (30) transverse to the channels of the corrugated cardboard, forming a multilayer wall (13); a base body (20) defined by a base panel of cut and folded stiff double-faced corrugated cardboard (24) attached around an end portion of the tubular polygonal body (10). The method comprises forming the tubular polygonal body by means of rolling the strip of corrugated cardboard around a polygonal rotary drum (51) and subsequently attaching to a base body (20).

A collapsible article comprising a plurality of foldably interconnected foldable sections/modules. The foldable sections can be part of cylindrical or conical surfaces. They can also be in the form of closing sections. When the foldable sections are part of tubular surfaces, either cylindrical or conical, they consist of four polygonal surface segments. The polygonal segments are curved/round in unfolded state and have a flat or approximately flat shape in partly folded and folded states. The folding process usually involves an abrupt transition between the unfolded and folded positions which makes the unfolded article almost as stable as non-foldable equivalents. The folding process usually requires application of force on the edges that form valley creases during folding.

A device for manufacturing a double-walled paper cup by combining an inner cup and an outer cup using hot-melt comprising: an outer cup forming part which includes: a turret provided with outer cup mandrels; and an enclosing means forming an outer cup; an outer cup transporting part which includes: a rotational transporting means which has circular slits; an outer cup inserting means which inserts the outer cup into the circular slit; a shaft that moves up and down; a first pusher that firmly restrains the outer cup into the circular slit; and a second pusher for separating the outer cup from the circular slit; and an outer cup combining part which includes: a rotating table provided with rotatable inner cup mandrels; a rotating pocket which rotates the inner cup mandrel; and a first hot-melt spraying nozzle that applies the hot-melt to an outer surface of the inner cup.

A paper-based composite container for an off-gassing product includes a paperboard can body having a substantially gas-impervious liner attached to an inner surface thereof, and a pair of substantially paper-based end closures attached to the opposite ends of the can body, each end closure defining a generally cylindrical sealing panel in contact with an inner surface of the can body. Heat-sealable materials are disposed on opposing surfaces of the sealing panel and can body. The sealing panels of the end closures are attached to the can body by heat seals. The heat seal for at least one of the end closures is discontinuous such that at least one vent channel extends through the heat seal to establish fluid communication between an interior of the container and the environment outside the container. The at least one vent channel is operable to vent excess gas pressure from the interior of the container.

A container with a deep recessed bottom end construction is provided. The container includes an inner receptacle having a sidewall and a bottom wall defining an interior volume within the receptacle. The container further includes an outer sleeve wrapped around the inner receptacle with a lower end extending below the lower edge of the receptacle to form a deep bottom recess within a lower portion of the container. The lower end of the receptacle sidewall has a taper angle that is different from a taper angle of an upper portion of the sidewall. The lower end of the receptacle sidewall may engage or contact the inner surface of the outer sleeve. The outer sleeve may include reverse bend and/or a second bottom wall onto which a lower end of the receptacle may sit.

A paper cup of a dual structure according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: an inner paper part having a plurality of diameter adjusting portions formed at predetermined angle intervals on one surface; a drink receiving part formed extending from one end of the inner paper part and bending formed into the inner portion of the inner paper part; and a drinking part formed at a boundary between the inner paper part and the drink receiving part and curled in a radially outward direction of the drink receiving part.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for forming containers. The containers may be cans, including composite cans. The apparatus may include a cylindrical mandrel and a blank may be formed into a cylindrical tube around the mandrel. Rotational apparatuses may engage portions of a blank that may be in a flat configuration and may rotate the portions around the outward cylindrical surface of the mandrel. Free edges of the tubular blank may be sealed by a sealing strip that may be T-shaped in cross section. A cup may be installed in an end opening, such as a bottom end, of the cylindrical tube. The cup may be sealed in the end opening by a seaming process using a seaming apparatus.

An apparatus for producing containers from paper or paper-like material. The container has a lateral surface made of a wound sheet-like segment, of which segment edges arranged on longitudinal sides overlap and form a region of overlap, and a pan-like termination element. The lateral surface and the termination element are connected to one another in an essentially liquid-tight manner by a skirt, and at least one pressing ram is provided for pressing and sealing the skirt, the pressing ram subjecting the skirt to essentially radially directed pressure. The pressing ram has a radially projecting protrusion in a portion provided for the purpose of acting on a boundary portion of the region of overlap of the lateral surface of the skirt.
