A storage trunk including a container, a lid, a latch and a seal is provided. The container can include an upper surface, a plurality of sidewalls, and a bottom surface. The lid can include a top section and a lip disposed adjacent to the top section. The lip can include a latch receiving section having a lock receiving section. The lid can be removably secured to the container. The latch can be connected to the container. The seal can be disposed adjacent to the lip of the lid. In certain embodiments, the storage trunk can include a tie-down element, a handle, and/or a wheel.

A disposable, bio-degradable food and beverage storage container, preferably of cardboard construction. The storage container is comprised of a cylindrical body portion and a removable lid having a seal that is also comprised of a biodegradable material. The interior surface of the body portion of the storage container is further comprised of an embossed portion line and a portion indicator. In one embodiment of the storage container, the body portion comprises a pair of opposing and spaced apart mixers fixedly attached to the interior surface for the mixing and/or agitation of the contents of the storage device in a spill-proof manner.

A multi-compartment container system includes a plurality of compartments. Each compartment includes a cup portion comprising a volume adapted to hold a food or liquid, and a frame portion joined to the cup portion. The frame portion surrounds a top portion or edge of the cup portion, and includes a connector element disposed on a side of the frame and one or more first mating elements. The compartment also includes a lid having one or more second mating elements adapted to engage with the one or more first mating elements of the frame to form a seal, and a chamber adapted to hold a utensil. The connector element of the frame is joined to an adjacent connector element of an adjacent frame of an adjacent compartment. The cup portion includes a first section and a second section, and the cup portion is adapted to move between an expanded state in which no part of the second section is inside the first section and a collapsed state in which at least a portion of the second section is inside the first section.

A container lid assembly outfits a container includes a lower lid construction and a slider element. The slider element is received in the lower lid construction and is linearly displaceable in a back and forth manner relative to the lower lid construction for opening and closing the container lid. The lower lid construction includes concave surfacing and the slider element includes convex surfacing. The slider element seats atop the lower lid construction such that the convex surfacing and concave surfacing form a spherical surface-to-surface seal and enabling slidable open-close functionality. The slider element is resiliently actuable when seated atop the lower lid construction for enhancing seated engagement therebetween. The slider element includes a step-down formation cooperable with resilient actuation thereof for further enhancing seated engagement between the slider element and the lower lid construction. The container lid further locks to the container when in an actuated lower lid configuration.

A package having an internal divider seated within a base and an outer closure. The divider defines a first compartment within an internal volume of the base, and the outer closure defines a second compartment between the divider and the outer closure. The base and divider are configured so that the divider snap-locks into the base.

A gasket for sealing between the open end of a manway nozzle body of a containment vessel and an associated cover comprising a resilient annular ring member having a bail including a plurality of rigid arcuate inserts spaced about the bail that extends between radially inner and radially outer depending legs. The bail includes at least one annular upstanding chevron extending about an upper surface and at least one annular depending chevron extending about a lower surface. The inserts and bail have about the same thickness. A method includes compressing the gasket between the manway nozzle and cover, and the rigid inserts limit the compression of the gasket.

A lid-to-container locking combination maximizes lid-to-container retention and includes a container and a container lid. The container includes an upper container rim and a container wall. The container wall includes a radially outwardly extending indentation or groove located in inferior adjacency to the upper container rim at an inner surface thereof. The container lid includes a rim-receiving groove, a lid wall, and a wall-to-groove resilient portion. The resilient portion traverses a structural distance between the lid wall and the rim-receiving groove and is resiliently actuable intermediate a relaxed configuration and an actuated configuration. The resilient portion includes a radially outer indentation-engaging portion. The rim-receiving groove receives the upper container rim, and the indentation-engaging portion engages the radially outwardly extending indentation when in the actuated configuration. The rim-receiving groove and radially outer the indentation-engaging portion together lock the container lid to the liquid container for cooperatively maximizing lid-to-container retention.

Provided is a lid assembly for a container. The lid assembly includes a lid formed of a first material and a seal formed of a second material and being integrally formed with the lid. The lid can be attached to the container such that a radially outwardly extending flexible lip of the seal compresses against an inner surface of the container to seal the lid assembly to the container.

There is provided an airtight box, comprising a box body and a cover covering the box body to close the box body tightly. The box body is provided with a receiving chamber with an opening which opens upwards and two side walls respectively located on both sides of the receiving chamber. A sliding groove extending longitudinally is provided on an outer side of each side wall. The airtight box is further provided with an opening and locking mechanism slidably connecting the cover and the box body. The opening and locking mechanism is provided with a pushing member slidably fixed in the sliding groove and a connecting rod rotatably fixed on the pushing member and mounted inside the cover. The connecting rod, under an action of the pushing member, presses upwards and drives the cover backwards to expose the receiving chamber to the outside.

Packaged product for preparing pasta in broth, which includes a container provided with an upper opening closed by a closure element, and a gelled substance which contains a food broth and one o more added food thickeners, is arranged in the container and is provided with an upper surface directed towards the upper opening of the container. A portion of broth pasta is arranged in the container between the closure element and the upper surface of the gelled substance, which has a gel strength such to sustain the portion of broth pasta abutted against the upper surface of the gelled substance itself without such portion of broth pasta sinking within such gelled substance.
