A lid with a disposable utensil for sealing a pet food container includes a lid, a gripping member, and a disposable utensil. The lid is releasably attached to an upper end of the pet food container. The lid includes an upper surface and a lower surface. The gripping member is positioned on the upper surface of the lid for removing the lid of the pet food container. The disposable utensil is detachably attached to the upper surface of the lid for accessing the pet food container.

To manufacture a metal can having a tear-open lid and having a storage space for an object above the tear-open lid, the following procedure is used: first, a top edge of the can which has a smaller diameter than the inside diameter of the can body is formed, wherein a transition region (6) is formed. After the tear-open lid has been attached, this transition region is deep drawn so that the tear-open lid (2) is displaced towards the bottom (5) of the can. This produces the storage space. This procedure allows previously formed tear-open lids to be used, which safely guarantees the imperviousness of the seal of the tear-open lid.

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.

A tabbed seal as well as a method of manufacture is provided for sealing containers such as bottles, jars and the like. The tabbed seal is formed with a lower sheet-like structure having a non-foam, heat-distributing layer thereon.

Lid for a metal container (11) able to contain a substance, comprising: a closing cap (12) defined by at least one incision or pre-cut line (13), able to allow the closing cap to be lifted and at least partly torn, an opening lever (14) disposed astride the incision line (13) and comprising a front fulcrum end (15) and an intermediate region (16) provided with a flexible tongue (17) attached to the closing cap (12), a mechanical element (18) located in proximity to the incision line (13), configured to mechanically attach the flexible tongue (17) to the closing cap (12) and configured to cooperate with said flexible tongue (17); the incision line (13) having at the front, in the zone where the closing cap (12) starts to be lifted and torn, a portion (19) protruding outward, toward the front fulcrum end (15) of the opening lever (14), the protruding portion (19) having, on both sides, segments (20) of the incision line (13) which move away from said mechanical element (18) as far as respective deformation zones (21), caused by compression of the incision line (13).

Removable closure device for metal containers comprising a lid delimited by a peripheral edge; a tab having a connecting end connected to the lid near a first portion of the peripheral edge and extending along a longitudinal direction towards a second portion of the peripheral edge opposite the first portion, and having a grip end opposite the connecting end located between the first and the second portions of the peripheral edge; two stiffening elements placed on the lid on opposite sides with respect to the tab, each of which comprises: an inner wall having a first curved section closely surrounding the grip end of the tab and having the concavity facing the tab, and an outer wall extending along the longitudinal direction between a first and a second tip, respectively facing the first and the second portions of the peripheral edge. The tangents to the outer walls of each stiffening element at the second tip converge near the second portion of the peripheral edge.

Disclosed is a container for hermetically sealed storage of liquid, paste-like and/or solid products, more particularly foodstuffs, characterized in that the lid of the container is designed to be re-sealable and largely stable pull-tab lid is also provided, the opening of the lid not involving the separation of metal surface leading to swarf formation and the re-sealing of said lid for air tightness.

A container closure includes a generally planar body having a product side and a customer side. The container closure body defines a limited container opening and an actuation location. Further, the container body includes a force concentrating construction disposed adjacent the limited container opening.

The disclosure describes embodiments of an apparatus including a first gas chromatograph including a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet, and a first temperature control. A controller is coupled to the first temperature control and includes logic to apply a first temperature profile to the first temperature control to heat, cool, or both heat and cool the first gas chromatograph. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

The present invention relates generally to a safety-enhanced can lid, and more particularly to a safety-enhanced can lid in which a prevention portion configured to prevent a user's hand from being cut is provided along the edge of the lid that is coupled to seal a can, thereby enabling safe use. For this purpose, the present invention provides a can lid that is coupled to the top side of a container in which contents are stored, the can lid including: a plate laid to cover the top portion of the container, composed of a flat plate, and provided with a pull tab on the top surface thereof; and a hand-cut prevention portion including a cut prevention wall bent downward from the edge of the plate toward the container.
