The disclosure relates to a closure having a sealing element for a fluid-filled container. The closure has at least one securing mechanism which is designed to be irreversibly changed in a visible manner during the first opening of the closure.

A container, preferably in the form of a bucket, includes a closure for closing the container. The closure includes a closed lid plate that is placeable on a container rim bounding a container opening in order to cover the container opening. A lock ring is placeable over the lid plate and screwable to the container. The lid plate is fixable to the container with the lock ring. A seal ring is arranged between the container rim and lid plate for sealing the container opening. The lid plate has a rim portion with a receiving portion, in particular U-shaped, that receives the container rim and encompasses the container rim radially from the inside and outside.

An anti-theft plastic bottle cap contains a body and an anti-theft ring. The body is connected on an opening of a bottle. The anti-theft ring is mounted on a bottom of the body, and multiple equidistant connection teeth are formed between the body and the anti-theft ring. The body includes a first protrusion extending to the anti-theft ring from a bottom of the body, and the anti-theft ring includes two second protrusions extending to the body. The first protrusion is engaged with the two second protrusions when the body is rotated clockwise, such that the anti-theft plastic bottle cap is not rotated overly by using the first protrusion and the two second protrusions to avoid a removal of the anti-theft ring from the body and the anti-theft ring before a user detaches the anti-theft plastic bottle cap from the bottle.

A closure for use with a container in which the closure includes a polymeric top portion and a polymeric annular skirt portion. The skirt portion depends from the top portion. The skirt portion includes exterior and interior surfaces. The interior surface of the skirt portion includes crushable ribs and anti-rotational lugs. The crushable ribs are configured to be crushed when the closure is applied to the container so as to prevent or inhibit axial movement of the closure with respect to the container by forming an interference fit. At least one of the plurality of anti-rotational lugs prevents or inhibits rotational movement of the closure with respect to the container such that the closure remains on the container.

A container with a security lock is provided. The container may have a lid (or “top”) portion and a bottom portion. The lid portion may have an exterior cover, a first disc, a second disc and a third disc. The first disc may have a plurality of indented downward partial trapezoids. The second disc may also have a plurality of nearly identical, upwardly extending partial trapezoids wherein the plurality of indented partial trapezoids of the first disc may be temporarily and selectively located between the plurality of partial trapezoids of the second disc in order to allow the lid to be rotated and the container therein opened. The third disc may be made of a thin material that allows the container to remain substantially airtight.

An elongated tubular housing adapted to receive an adjustable external compression device introduced on one end of the tubular housing distal from the opening releasing the contents, and retained in position by a member engaging a grooved strip that is integrated with and/or retained on the housing surface material with a strip surface of like material, providing a reliable, economic and functional outer compression member retention apparatus and method. Further embodiments according to the present invention include a dispenser having regions provided for ease and comfort of gripping, grooved strip end-stop to retain compression device, and grooved strip dimensional and placement details to provide functional, manufacturable and economic material dispenser.

A rack includes: a casing; M pairs of supports that are provided inside the casing so as to extend in a depth direction and arrayed at regular intervals in an up-down direction; and a lock mechanism that locks returnable containers each housed while being supported so as to be slidable along one pair of supports. The casing of the rack is divided into N rows by (N−1) partition plates, with the M pairs of supports provided in each row, to be able to house a maximum of (M×N) returnable containers. The lock mechanism is provided in each of the (N−1) partition plates so as to extend through the partition plate and correspond to each tier, and simultaneously locks two returnable containers that are housed adjacent to each other on one side and the other side of the partition plate.

A lockable and moisture-proof pill box has a storing base having at least one compartment for holding pills, at least one lid pivotally mounted on the storing base, and at least one sealing and pushing member. Each of the at least one lid has a sealing ring and a pushing bar integrally formed as a single part. With the at least one sealing and pushing member mounted between the storing base and the at least one lid, the at least one compartment in the storing base can be airtightly sealed by the sealing ring when being closed, so as to prevent the pills in the at least one compartment from being spilt. Moreover, each of the at least one lid can be automatically opened by push of the pushing bar. Thus, a user can take the pills held in the compartment easily and conveniently.

A container with a security lock is provided. The container may have a lid (or “top”) portion and a bottom portion. The lid portion may be comprised of an exterior cover and a bottom ring acting as a single unit. Once inward protrusions on the exterior cover vertically aligns with indentation spaces on the bottom ring of the lid, a specific pressing and then twisting motion may be used to separate the lid from the bottom portion to gain access to the interior of the container. The bottom portion may receive contents such as medication.

An elongated tubular housing adapted to receive an adjustable external compression device introduced on one end of the tubular housing distal from the opening releasing the contents, and retained in position by a member engaging a grooved strip that is integrated with and/or retained on the housing surface material with a strip surface of like material, providing a reliable, economic and functional outer compression member retention apparatus and method. Further embodiments according to the present invention include a dispenser having regions provided for ease and comfort of gripping, grooved strip end-stop to retain compression device, and grooved strip dimensional and placement details to provide functional, manufacturable and economic material dispenser.
