A hot-fill plastic container has a polygonal (e.g., hex-shape) sidewall portion and a plurality of panels in a sidewall portion that are configured to flex in response to an internal vacuum pressure. Further, in embodiments, the container may be suitable for hot filling while having a container weight that may be 20% to 30%, or even higher percentages, below current comparative conventional weights for a plastic container that is intended to hold an equivalent volume of contents. In embodiments, the panels may be configured, e.g., adjusted or tuned, to provide a desired (e.g., reduced or extended) shelf-life.

A polymeric container including a base, a body, a finish, finish threads, and a tamper lip. The body extends from the base. The finish defines an opening through which a product can pass into, and out of, an internal volume of the container defined at least in part by the body. The finish threads are at an outer surface of the finish, and are configured to cooperate with closure threads of a closure to secure the closure to the finish. The tamper lip extends from the outer surface of the finish, and is configured to replace the support flange during handling, and to cooperate with a tamper tab of the closure. The closure diameter is about the same as the neck diameter.

Various embodiments are directed to a container comprising: a spout, a base portion, and a plurality of alternating long sidewalls and short sidewalls extending away from the base portion to the spout. The plurality of alternating long sidewalls and short sidewalls collectively define a vertical portion extending away from the base portion, a downward sloping planar top portion extending away from the spout, and a gradually curved transition region extending between the vertical portion and the downward sloping planar top portion. The container comprises a strength protrusion surrounding the spout and defined within the downward sloping planar top portion and one or more vertical grooves defined within at least one of the long sidewalls or the short sidewalls.

A container defining a longitudinal axis and a transverse direction that is transverse with respect to the longitudinal axis. The container includes a finish and a sidewall portion extending from the finish. A plurality of ribs are defined by the sidewall. A base portion extends from the sidewall portion and encloses the sidewall portion to form a volume therein for retaining a commodity. The base portion has a contact surface for supporting the container. A plurality of straps extend radially along the base portion away from the longitudinal axis in the transverse direction, each one of the straps defines a strap surface that is closer to the finish than the contact surface. The plurality of ribs and the base portion are configured to place the container in a state of hydraulic charge-up when top load is applied to the container after the container is filled.

A container including an opening defined by a finish portion, and a base at an end of the container opposite to the opening. The base includes a standing ring extending inward from a heal to a center pushup portion. The center pushup portion includes an pushup ring surrounding an inversion portion. In an as-blown position the inversion portion extends outward and beyond the pushup ring such that the inversion portion is further from the opening than the pushup ring. In a final position the inversion portion is inverted relative to the as-blown position such that the inversion portion extends inward so as to be closer to the opening than the pushup ring. The inversion portion is mechanically moved from the as-blown position to the filled position with an inversion device after the container has been filled to reduce vacuum or increase pressure within the container.

This inventions generally relates to a bottle and more particularly, relates to a plastic MULTI FUNCTIONAL BOTTLE.sup.1. More specifically, it is an exercise weight bar shape inspired MULTI FUNCTIONAL.sup.2 BOTTLE. The bottle may include an upper body section and a lower body section connected with each other by a substantially cylindrical transitional section, which measurements and design allow a full grip of a closed hand. The bottle may be made out of a plastic material and may be suitable for different uses, specially for holding water with a high ph level. .sup.1 Named Kealthy Bottle for the meaning of its different purposes..sup.2 Holding beverages, battery recycle container, cheap exercise equipment, decorative cash-box, decoration and home supply.

A container closure system comprises a container 100 comprising a neck 120 having an outer surface, the neck including a plurality of snap ring segments 140 alternating with a plurality of snap ring voids 160 positioned around a circumference of the outer surface. The length of the circumference at which snap ring voids exist is 25% or more of the total length of the circumference. The plurality of snap ring segments is positioned at regular increments around a circumference of the outer surface. The system further includes a cap 14 comprising, among other things, a base 26 that comprises a plurality of snap prongs 16 arranged so as to engage and disengage the plurality of snap ring segments when the cap is rotated on the neck of the container. The plurality of snap prongs are configured to hold the cap on or release the cap from the container.

A square bottle comprising a mouth portion, a shoulder portion, a body portion, and a bottom portion provided to be continuous in this order from the top to the bottom in a bottle axis direction, wherein in the body portion a plurality of panel surface portions are provided to be continuous with each other with corner portions therebetween in a circumferential direction around a bottle axis and in the body portion a first peripheral groove straddling at least the corner portions in the circumferential direction is formed, and a ridge portion straddling the corner portions in the circumferential direction is formed on an inner surface defining the first peripheral groove.

A blow-molded article having improved well-defined corners is provided.

The present invention relates to a plastic jar (500) comprising of a liquid storage chamber (501) and the said liquid storage chamber comprising of a lower end (503) and an upper end (502), and an upper dispensing end (506) at one end of the chamber for introducing liquid to the chamber and removing liquid from the chamber. Further, the said lower end (503) of the liquid storage chamber (501) is structurally created or molded with a holding mechanism below the lower end of the said liquid storage chamber, and the said holding mechanism comprises of a plurality of hand/palm support deep curves (507, 508) which allows a user to carry the said plastic jar with a fine grip.
