The invention relates to a biodegradable stopper comprising a casing of rigid biodegradable material, consisting of an annular body with a covered flank, and an internal ring of biodegradable elastic material the total width of which is equal to or smaller than the internal width of the annular body, comprising one or more internal recesses in which one or more portions of the ring fit.

A plastic internally hollow body has a cavity for containing liquids, solids or gases, and includes a main body shaped and having an inner surface at least partially defining the cavity. The inner surface terminates in a shaped edge that delimits a coupling aperture to the cavity. The internally hollow body includes a closure body, having an outer sealing surface suitable at least partially engaging the inner surface of the main body. The closure body at least partially closes the cavity in correspondence of the coupling aperture. The main body is joined to the closure body at least partially along the shaped edge by a joining element over-moulded to the main body and the closure body and covering the over-moulding seat resulting between the main body and the closure body. A method for making the internally hollow body over-moulds the joining element by injection moulding with an over-moulding mould.

The present invention is based upon a coating system that uses polycyclic polyester polymers and phenolic resins. The coating system comprises first and second coatings. The first coating preferably is derived from ingredients comprising a polycyclic polyester resin having first and second fused rings that share at least two atoms in common. The second coating preferably is derived from ingredients comprising a polycyclic polyester resin that may be different than the polyester of the first coating.

A lubricating oil maintenance cap assembly includes a cap having an outer side, and an inner side, a shield, anchor assemblies, the shield is applied to the inner side of the cap, and the anchor assemblies anchor the shield to the cap. The cap is fashioned of a first material, the shield is fashioned of a second material, and the second material is different from the first material and is more thermally resistant than the first material enabling the shield to thermally shield the inner side of the cap.

An individual beverage bottle, with added convenience features making the bottle easy to open, and provides features to customize, personalize, and/or share in a very hygienic manner and providing a mechanism to secure a cup to the bottle such that an otherwise ordinary cup adapts and screws onto existing beverage containers that can be used to share the beverage or just be able to drink from a cup rather than directly from the bottle wherein, existing bottles can be utilized with very little, if any, extra footprint and minimal retooling. A proprietary labeling system is adapted to the bottle and cup.

The present invention relates to three stick product containers. One has a removable top cap with a crown and a hollow base, such that the top cap can be removed and inserted into the hollow base. The top cap has associated with it a thumb lever push ring to prevent the stick from rolling when laid horizontal. The other container is more suitable, for example, for a lip balm that has a top cap with a living hinge that can be flipped all the way back, inserted into a plug insert hole in the base of the cap, and then the cap is used to support the container in an at rest position to prevent it from rolling.

A filter baffle assembly, including a filter cap engageable to a mouth of a container, the filter cap including a filter vent operatively attached to a liner situated within an inner space of the filter cap, and a gas permeable baffle disposed between a mouth of the container and the filter vent, covering the filter vent, the baffle including a single perforation to permit gas exchange between an interior of the container and the filter vent, and to protect the filter vent from contact with contents housed in the interior of the container. A gas permeable point baffle for protecting a filter vent from contact with the contents of a container, including a single perforation, the point baffle being welded to a liner and covering a filter vent operatively attached to the liner, housed within a cap engageable to the mouth of the container. A method for protecting a filter vent from the contents of a container.
