Self standing food container
11498721 · 2022-11-15 · ·

A container has a base flange on a base, and a lid flange on a lid. When the container is in a closed position the lid flange and the base flange are in juxtaposition and one of the flange edges defines a flange support surface. A lid surface is spaced above an upper base periphery when in the closed position to define a lid volume, and the base section defines a base volume. The flange support surface extends a first distance such that when the volume of the container is loaded with a rated capacity of product and the container is placed in a standing position on a flat surface using the flange support surface and a front base corner as support elements, a center of gravity of the container generates a moment about an axis of the base corner that biases the container in the standing position.

The lid assembly (14) has an annular ring member (42) and a top cover member (44). A second decorative member (16) covers a top surface of the cover member (44). A handle (34) has a first end connected to the sidewall (20) at a first position and a second end connected to the sidewall (20) at a second position, the first position being generally opposite to the second position. A first earing member (88) hangs from the handle (34) proximate the first end of the handle (34) and proximate the sidewall (20), and a second earing member (94) hangs from the handle (34) proximate the second end of the handle (34) and proximate the sidewall (20).

Child-resistant containers and packaging

The child-resistant container includes a receptacle having an inner cavity, a lid that selectively couples with the receptacle to enclose the inner cavity when in a locked position, and a lock movable between the locked position securing the lid to the receptacle to substantially prevent access to the inner cavity and an unlocked position permitting the lid to move relative to the receptacle to expose access to the inner cavity. The receptacle and lid combination may include a lid that pivots relative to a container about a hinge and locks thereto by locking catches in the container sidewalls; or may include an outer housing enclosing an inner storage container in slide-in relation, wherein a pair of safety tabs extend from the inner storage container and through the outer housing into a respective pair of locking channels formed therein.

A tamper evident container includes a cover with a first interlocking flange with a first tab for opening the container and a first extension joined to the first tab along a first frangible score line, a base with a second interlocking flange with a second tab for opening the container and a second extension joined to the second tab along a second frangible score line, a rim extending around a perimeter of the base, the rim having a flat portion connected to an outer wall, and a flange portion extending from the outer wall portion, wherein a position of the flat portion and the flange portion correspond to a sheet line, and wherein the first and second interlocking flanges, when securely fastened together, prevent access to the first and second tabs, and require more force to separate than to sever the first and second extensions along the frangible score lines.

CONTAINER AND LID WITH MULTIPLE SEALS THEREBETWEEN AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND USING THE SAME

A moisture tight container includes a container body and a lid preferably linked to the body by a hinge. The body and lid include at least a first seal and a second seal in series to provide a moisture tight seal between the body and the lid. The first seal includes mating of thermoplastic-to-thermoplastic sealing surfaces of the body and lid respectively. The second seal includes mating of thermoplastic-to-elastomeric sealing surfaces of the body and lid, respectively, or of the lid and body, respectively.

Airtight compact

An airtight cosmetic compact, wherein the airtight feature is created by interaction between a seal on the inside of the cover and the upwardly facing recess of the base. The cover locks on the base by either thread elements on both cap and base or by bayonet like cams, allowing the cover to be twisted on the base compressing the cover against the base and engaging the seal with the base recess. By compressing the seal against the base and holding it in place through the threaded engagement the air-tightness of the compact is achieved and guaranteed.

Cosmetic-product packaging and method of manufacturing thereof

A cosmetic-product packaging, wherein the cosmetic-product packaging includes: an outer container, and a lid that is pivotally coupled to the outer container, wherein the outer container and the lid are provided with a first stud and a second stud respectively, wherein the studs are provided with respective flanges that are accessible externally to the cosmetic-product packaging, wherein a flexible cord is attached to at least one of the first and second studs and is wrappable under one or more flanges of the studs; an inner container that is mountable within the outer container, wherein, in operation, the inner container accommodates at least one cosmetics product, and the inner container is accommodated within the outer container; and the inner container is user-accessible when the lid is in an open position, wherein the cord is unwrapped.

Caps for Catheter Packages

A package for a medical device such as an intermittent catheter has a case which is closed at one end and open at the other end. A cap is connected to the case by a hinge to permit selectable movement of the cap between an open position, wherein access is provided to the open end of the case, and a closed position, wherein the cap prevents access to the open end of the case. A seal is connected to one of the cap and case. The seal is engageable with the other of the cap and case when the cap is closed to form a barrier that maintains a sterile environment inside the package. The seal can be repeatedly made and broken whenever the user closes or opens the cap, respectively. One of the case and cap has a latch and the other has a receptacle for receiving the latch to releasably retain the cap in a closed position. The latches fit into the receptacle to prevent lateral forces from distorting the cap when the cap is closed. A locking slide may be used to lock the cap to the case.
