A bottle that includes a body, a neck, stops on the neck defining a lug retention area. The body defines a storage chamber therein. The neck extends away from the body and defines an opening to the chamber of the body. The neck includes threads extending around an outside surface of the neck. The stops extend from a bottom of a first thread toward the body, the stops defining the lug retention area. The closure is secured over the opening and around the neck. The closure includes a lug configured to interface with the thread and engage with the lug retention area to retain the closure in place over the opening.

A closure for use in closing a container which includes a seal liner, and includes side walls with an upper panel which is integral with the side walls. The upper panel has an upper surface defining a recessed relief area which corresponds to a venting location. The recessed relief area of the upper panel represents a location where a sufficient down force is not available for bonding a seal liner at that location to a container neck land surface. As such, the recessed relief defines a venting location for an assembled combination of the closure, container and seal liner.

A pharmacy container comprising a bottle and a closure is disclosed herein. The bottle includes a body, a neck, stops on the neck defining a lug retention area. The body defines a storage chamber therein. The neck extends away from the body and defines an opening to the chamber of the body. The neck includes threads extending around an outside surface of the neck. The stops extend from a bottom of a first thread toward the body, the stops defining the lug retention area. The closure is secured over the opening and around the neck. The closure includes a lug configured to interface with the thread and engage with the lug retention area to retain the closure in place over the opening. Other labels, bottles, associated combinations, and associated methods are also disclosed.

The disclosure includes a cap having a first portion made of a plastic material and forming a bottom for covering a container neck and a protective side wall for surrounding the container neck, and a second portion made of a flexible material that is compatible with the plastic material of the first portion and separate from the plastic material of the first portion, the second portion being annular and consisting of a flexible seal, which projects from the bottom toward the interior of the side wall and which is welded to the first portion. Thus, the manufacture of the stopper by molding includes injecting a flexible material to produce the flexible annular seal and then the movable portions of the mold are placed such that the flexible material is in a groove that is set back from the planar surface of the mold.

The disclosure describes a zipper including two rows of zipper teeth, in which at least some of the zipper teeth include a negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) foam material having a Poisson's ratio of between 0 and ?1, and a slider movably attached to one of the rows of the zipper teeth and configured to connect the two rows of zipper teeth when the slider is moved in a first direction and to disconnect the two rows of zipper teeth when the slider is moved in an opposite direction.

A composite article includes a lattice and an elastomeric section. The lattice includes a plurality of members that form an open-mesh frame defining a plurality of voids between the adjacent members of the frame. The elastomeric section is formed of an elastomer that is disposed about the lattice and within the voids of the lattice. The composite article may be a circular gasket, a gasket with a grip, a rectangular gasket, a vessel cap, a flask stand, and a handle for a hand tool.

A screw cap for sealing containers with threaded necks includes an outer body, having a cylindrical outer wall closed at one end by a circular lid and an interior neck seal adjacent to the circular lid. A female thread extends around an inner surface of the cylindrical outer wall. The female thread has a main portion having substantially uniform thickness, and an attachment portion having a thickness which is less than the thickness of the main portion. The female thread is attached to the inner surface of the cylindrical outer wall in the region of the attachment portion, and the attachment portion is configured to permit deflection of the female thread.

The present invention relates in particular to a closure (3) for the fluid-tight closing of a vessel (2) filled with a substance (5), wherein the closure (3) is provided with a fluid-tight pressure-transmission element (9) and wherein the closure (3) is provided with a base body (8) to which the pressure-transmission element (9) can be attached in a fluid-tight manner, wherein the pressure-transmission element (9) is deflectable by pressurisation without incurring damage, for biological inactivation of microorganisms present in the substance (5), wherein the closure is configured in such a way that the pressure-transmission element (9), when the vessel (2) is closed with the closure (3), is held (clamped between the vessel (2) and the base body). The invention also relates to a corresponding container (1) and a corresponding method.

A closure-container system comprising a screw-threaded inner cap that mounts to a screw threaded container, and an overshell that is enabled to rotate and translate relative to the inner cap. As the overshell rotates relative to the inner cap, one or more metallic magnets located in the overshell pull the cap toward one or more metallic elements associated with the container. The overshell and container make direct contact, so there is no unsightly gap. Also, the contact produces a satisfying, reassuring metallic click sound, accompanied by a luxurious tactile sensation that, together, dispel the silent ennui normally associated with rotating closures.
