Closure for a container with flexible features
11548692 · 2023-01-10 · ·

A closure (20, 20A, 20B) for a container (22) with an outwardly projecting flange (25). The closure including a skirt (50, 50A, 50B) for attaching the closure (20, 20A, 20B) to the container (22). The skirt (50, 50A, 50B) has an annular, flexible retention member (66, 66A) extending laterally inwardly from a lower end portion (54, 54A, 54B) of the skirt (50, 50A, 50B) to define a connection (62, 62A, 62B) therebetween. In one form, the flexible retention member (58, 58A, 58B) has (a) an initial, undeflected configuration, (b) a deflected configuration rotated away therefrom about the connection (62, 62A, 62B), and (c) a proximal end surface (126, 126A) located at the connection (62, 62A, 62B) defining a shoulder when the flexible retention member (58, 58A, 58B) is in the undeflected configuration. In another form, the flexible retention member (58, 58A, 58B) is movable into the deflected configuration when subjected to an axial force of between about 100 Newtons and about 150 Newtons.

Liquid transfer device and method of use
11548772 · 2023-01-10 ·

A device for transferring liquids from between containers, and methods for its use. The device includes a body having an axis and first and second cap members at oppositely-disposed axial ends of the body. Cavities are present within the first and second cap members and define axial openings in the body. The cavities are coaxially aligned along the axis of the body and define interior walls within the first and second cap members on which female threads are formed. At least one fluid passage is within the body and fluidically interconnects the cavities. The axial openings in the body are configured to receive necks of first and second containers, and the female threads are configured to couple with male threads on the necks of the first and second containers such that the device physically couples the first and second containers together.

INTERLOCKING REUSABLE SPILL-PROOF CONTAINERS
20230211921 · 2023-07-06 ·

A kit made up of a plurality of interlocking spill-proof containers including a first container and a second container. The first container includes a petri having a body with a top opening, at least one cavity, a bottom and at least one magnet, a jacket that at least partially envelops the body, and a cap configured for placement over the petr. The second container includes a petri having a body with a top opening, at least one cavity, a bottom and at least one magnet, a jacket that at least partially envelops the body, a cap configured for placement over the petri, and at least one center section disposed between the petri and the cap. The first and second containers are releasably attached to each other via the magnets contained by the first and second containers.

DISC-ACCOMMODATING JAR OR BOTTLE CAP

Variable Volume Evacuable Container
20230211937 · 2023-07-06 ·

A variable volume evacuable container has a closed bottom, an open top, and a spirally threaded inner wall extending therebetween. A lid configured to threadably engage the inner wall has a top surface, a perimeter, a bottom surface, and a funneling volume within the perimeter and below the bottom surface. A duct is defined through the top and bottom surfaces at the apex of the funneling volume, and a moveable baffle is coupled to the top surface to cover or uncover the duct. The bottom surface slopes continuously upward to the apex so that downward rotation of the lid against contained liquid forces air out of the duct until the liquid fills the funneling volume, allowing the baffle to seal the liquid from air by covering the duct.
