LID
A lid that closes a mouth of a container is made of a material principally including a paper material. The lid includes a side wall that is fitted into the mouth of the container, and a top lid that is surrounded by the side wall. The top lid includes an inlet/outlet formation part that forms an inlet/outlet for an article stored in the container, and a temporary fixing part that temporarily fixes the inlet/outlet formation part to the top lid. This can achieve a lid that has satisfactory thermal insulation, can reduce leakage, is user-friendly, can reduce a manufacturing cost, and is conscious of environmental issues.
SANITARY WIPE DISPENSER
A sanitary wipe dispenser having a cylindrical housing operatively arranged to store a plurality of sanitary wipes, the housing having an open top and a closed bottom, a resilient cover/dispensing member, the cover/dispensing member having a cylindrical portion arranged to removably surround the open top of the cylindrical housing, an annular portion connected to the cylindrical portion, the cylindrical portion extending below the annular portion, at least one opening, and a resilient sealing member connected to the resilient cover/dispensing member at a center point, the resilient sealing member further including a rim arranged concentrically about the center point, the resilient sealing member extending above the annular portion.
REDUCED PLASTIC SONICALLY WELDABLE FRESH PRODUCE PACKAGING LID
The semirigid plastic content of a fresh produce container is reduced by omitting or removing a central portion of a semirigid plastic lid to form a central opening therein. The central opening is covered and sealed by a plastic film, which can be applied before, during, or after packaging. The film can include visible indicia. The plastic film can be attached to an inner flange of the lid that surrounds the central opening, and can be by a resealable adhesive. During a packaging step, the tray is filled with the fresh produce, and then the lid can be sonically spotwelded to the tray. The sonic spotwelding can be of an outer lid flange to a corresponding outer tray flange. In embodiments where the central portion of the lid is removed, the removed plastic can be combined with precursor plastic and used to form additional semirigid plastic lids.
CONTAINER
The invention provides a container for holding combat sport equipment. The container comprises: (a) a hollow body defined by four sidewalls that extend from a closed base to an open mouth; (b) a handle provided on one of the sidewalls of the hollow body, and (c) a lid having an inner surface that comprises a flat area, an outer surface, and four edges. The handle comprises a first elongate member and a second elongate member, wherein the first elongate member has an elongate axis that lies parallel to the plane of the closed base; and the second elongate member has an elongate axis that lies perpendicular to the plane of the closed base. One of the edges of the lid is pivotally connected to one of the sidewalls of the hollow body and the lid can pivot between an open position, in which the lid does not cover the open mouth and in which the flat area of the inner surface lies parallel to the plane of the closed base, and a closed position, in which the lid partly or completely covers the open mouth.
Package assembly for or with a tampon applicator
Disclosed is a tampon applicator package assembly having a tampon applicator and a cap having a closed end and an open end. The tampon applicator has a barrel for housing a pledget and a plunger. The plunger has an end portion that is a cap cover that connects to a remainder of the plunger and mates with the cap at the open end to provide a seal with the cap that completely encloses the tampon applicator in the cap. Also disclosed is an assembly having a tampon applicator, a cap having both a closed end and open end, and a cap cover for covering the open end of the cap. When the cap cover is placed on the open end, the open end is sealed and the tampon applicator is completely enclosed in the cap.

Child resistant pop-top vial
A vial comprises a vial top and a lid. The lid comprises a top and a bottom. A circular securing feature is attached to the bottom and has a diameter that is less than the diameter of the lid, thus forming a lip around the circumference of the bottom. The securing feature comprises a snap bead that extends outwards therefrom. An internal undercut in the vial mates with the snap bead when the lid is in the closed position. The vial top comprises a ledge. The underside of the lip secures to the ledge when the lid is in the closed position. An anti-pry wall is located on the ledge, having a diameter larger than the lid and surrounding the lid when the lid is in the closed position. The height of the anti-pry wall is taller than the underside of the lip when the lid is in the closed position.
