The present invention relates generally to a container that may be sealed and reclosed with a threaded closure. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods of manufacturing a metallic container having an opening with inwardly facing threads that are formed after a threaded closure is inserted at least partially into the opening. The container opening may be selectively sealed and reclosed with the threaded closure which releasably engages the container threads.

The present invention relates to a closed-head drum (10) with inserted thin-walled inliner (22) of multilayer plastic film for storing and transporting liquid or free-flowing filling materials. In order to improve the use of liners in closed-head drums, and to facilitate in particular the handling for the users such as the filling and emptying operators, so as to allow the closed-head drum (10) with liner (22) to be handled in precisely the same way as a closed-head drum without a liner, the present invention provides for the liner surface to adhere, or be adhesively bonded in a detachable manner, to the inner wall of the drum by virtue of a vacuum being created in the intermediate air space between the inner wall of the drum and liner surface and by thermal activation by means of hot air injection into the interior of the inliner.

The present invention relates to devices for corking bottles, and more particularly to the corking of glass bottles having necks containing a cork with an upper portion which rises above a rim, and may be used for corking bottles. A device for corking bottles contains a neck with a rim, and a cork, an end portion of the rim having protrusions, providing the ability to raise the cork by rotating same by the upper portion thereof. The neck, rim and upper portion of the cork are rectangular and/or oval in horizontal cross-section. The neck and rim are, on the two wide sides thereof, made in the form of parallel flat common surfaces. The narrow sides of the rim are hook-shaped.

A tamper-resistant closure assembly, comprising an elongate body having a proximal end and a distal end; a ferrule defining an interior major surface, wherein the interior major surface has a proximal region and a distal region; and a boss positioned adjacent the distal end of the elongate body and configured to resiliently urge outwardly against the interior major surface; wherein the elongate body is slidably retained within the ferrule by a shoulder extending radially outward of the elongate body; wherein the ferrule, the elongate body, or both defines a region so complementarily arranged relative to the boss as to resiliently urge the elongate body in a proximal direction relative to the ferrule in correspondence with a radially outward force applied by the boss against the interior major surface.

A closure (1) for a fluid container includes a top deck (11), a skirt (13) extending from the top deck (11) in an axial direction (−z), wherein the skirt (13) comprises a screw thread (14), slits (17) in the skirt (13), an elongated stabilizing section (15) and retaining means on the inside of the skirt (13) for engagement of a collar (36B) of the neck finish (31) of the fluid container (3). The closure includes torque engagement means (12) arranged on the outside of the top deck (11) for interacting with a torqueing member during fitting of the closure (1).
