A child-resistant smoking article package 100 is provided which comprises a case 103 with an opening 104 that is adapted to receive a smoking article 102 and a cap 107 movable between a closed state wherein the cap 107 closes the case 103 and an open state wherein the opening 104 of the case 103 is accessible. The child-resistant smoking article package 100 further comprises a first releaseably engageable fixation member 108-1 and a second and third releaseably engageable fixation member 108-2, 108-3, wherein the second and third releaseably engageable fixation members 108-2, 108-3 are arranged on opposing sides of the child-resistant smoking article package 100. The first, second and third releaseably engageable fixation members 108-1, 108-2, 108-3 are adapted to immovably fix the cap 107 to the case 103 in the closed state and to release the cap 107 when they are simultaneously actuated.

A double-layer keg comprises an outer barrel and an inner barrel made of plastic disposed in the outer barrel. A bottom of the outer barrel is fixed with a base, and a lower portion of the outer barrel has a brace for supporting a bottom periphery of the inner barrel. A spear structure is installed at a barrel opening of the inner barrel, and an upper portion of the inner barrel has a shoulder and a neck disposed around the barrel opening. An inner surface of an upper portion of the outer barrel is pressed against an outer surface of the shoulder and/or the neck of the inner barrel. An expansion space, provided for the bottom of the inner barrel to expand downward, is disposed between a portion of the bottom of the inner barrel located at an inner side of the brace and the base.

A container includes a body and an upper head and a lower bottom. The container includes a first opening in the upper head, the first opening having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the body. The first opening can include a rim extending from the upper head. The container further includes a second opening in the upper head, the second opening including a vent.

A container includes a metal end applied and sealed to an all-thermoplastic container body by a crimp-seaming or double-seaming operation. The metal end has an outer curl joined to a chuck wall that extends down from the curl. One or both of the inner surface of the container side wall and the outer surface of the chuck wall has/have a heat-sealable material thereon. The metal end is crimp-seamed or double-seamed to the container body and the heat-sealable material(s) are heated to soften or melt such that the interface between the chuck wall and the side wall is fused. The interface is oriented along a direction relative to internal pressure exerted on the metal end such that stress on the interface caused by the internal pressure is predominantly shear stress.

A container for a retorting process includes a body. The body is configured to be coupled to a lid such that the lid and the body define an internal volume of the container. The body includes a lip, a wall, a support, a hinge, and an expansion panel. The lip is configured to be coupled to the lid. The wall is contiguous with the lip. The support is contiguous with the wall. The support is configured to interface with a surface to support the container on the surface. The hinge is contiguous with the support opposite the wall. The expansion panel is contiguous with the hinge. The hinge is configured to facilitate displacement of the expansion panel relative to the support to selectively increase the internal volume of the container.

A can lid made of a resin laminate steel sheet for a resin-metal composite container, includes: a top sheet portion; and a curved portion located at an outer periphery of the top sheet portion, in which the resin laminate steel sheet includes a steel sheet, a thermoplastic polyester-based resin layer provided at a first surface of the steel sheet, a modified polypropylene-based resin layer provided at a second surface of the steel sheet, a polypropylene-based resin layer, and an ethylene-propylene copolymer resin layer, a melting point of the ethylene-propylene copolymer resin layer is 135? C. or higher and 150? C. or lower, a melting point of the thermoplastic polyester-based resin layer is higher than a melting point of the polypropylene-based resin layer by 40? C. or more, and a range of a proportion of the ethylene component in the ethylene-propylene copolymer in the ethylene-propylene copolymer resin layer is 1.0 mass % or more and 45.0 mass % or less.
