A package of smokeless tobacco includes a flavor patch located in the package to provide flavor to smokeless tobacco. Also disclosed is a method of packaging smokeless tobacco by combining a package with a flavor patch disposed inside the package, the flavor patch comprising a flavor and an adsorbent, so that the flavor patch resides in an interior of the package; and adding smokeless tobacco to the package with the flavor patch.

The purpose of the invention is to provide a heat insulating container capable of suppressing the deterioration of heat insulation performance even if the volume of an object stored is reduced. A heat insulating container 1 includes a storage space 13 formed by a bottom wall 11 and side walls 12, a container body 10 having an opening 14 continuous to the storage space 13, and a deformable plate-shaped lid 20. The lid 20 is configured such that at least a part thereof is deformed in a state of being inserted into the storage space 13 through the opening 14 of the container body 10 thereby to bring peripheral edges 21 thereof into close contact with the inner surfaces of the side walls 12 of the container body 10.

Exemplary embodiments provide a sheet to form a lid to substantially close a container. The sheet comprises a rectangular base having opposing side edges, opposing end edges, an upper surface and a lower surface. At least one notch is included on each of the side edges, where the notches correspond to a protrusion on an upper surface of two side walls of the container. A portion of the lower surface of the sheet at the side edges are configured to engage with the upper surface of the two side walls of the container. A foldable flap extends outwardly from each of the two end edges. The foldable flaps are configured to fold downwardly and engage against end walls of the container. The rectangular base has a thickness of at least 0.125 inches to support weight of items placed on the upper surface of the rectangular base without collapsing.

A combination cap and work support system includes a lower section configured to connect to a container and an upper section configured to provide a desired support to an object. The upper section includes multiple apices and at least one ridge. The system may be included as part of a kit that includes a container and may include applicators and other accessories. The system may be manufactured with various molding processes, including multi-shot molding and multi-cavity molds. The system may be utilized by placement upon a work surface and then placing an object upon an apex or ridge thereof, to support the object above the work surface.

A pour spout device including a lid and a vented pour spout for improving the sealing of an opening of a wide-mouthed jar or container. The lid has a cover and a threaded outer wall, and a seal ring track on the inner side of the cover, having an inner boundary defined by a plurality of retaining ribs spaced radially inwardly from the outer wall of the lid. An annular seal is removably secured within the seal ring track and is retained by the plurality of retaining ribs. Each quadrant of the inner side of the lid has at least one of the arcuate-shaped retaining ribs, each having an outer-facing surface that retains the inside edge of all four quadrants of the annular seal from being biased laterally out of the seal ring track when the annular seal is squeezed between the lid and the upper rim of the container.

Heating unit is constructed according to the embodiments of invention to provide heating or warming features to maintain specific food temperature.

In addition, safety control unit is provided to either adjust or shut down the system should the value deviate from the range value.

A portable, resealable storage container and a method for manufacture are provided. The container includes a body having a bottom opposite an opening, and sidewalls attached to the bottom, wherein the body defines a storage cavity. A top having an attachment band and a flap operable to connect to and disconnect from the attachment band covers the opening of the body when connected to the body. A ridge is disposed along an outer surface of the sidewalls and is configured to provide a seat for the attachment band of the top. A mating surface disposed at an upper end of the sidewalls above the ridge and is operable to contact the attachment band of the top. When the top is positioned to sit atop the ridge, the attachment band is in substantially continuous contact with the mating surface. The top is securely fastened to the body.

A container for holding a product such as snack food, wherein the container is transformable from a cylindrical shape to a bowl shape adapted to hold and provide easy access to the product.

A paper-based container lid comprises a top wall, a side wall connecting to the top wall, and a sealing channel formed on the side wall for sealingly engaging a rim of the container and securing the lid to the container, wherein the top wall and the side wall are preferably formed from separate blanks.

The container with a lid and threaded closure mechanism includes a receptacle having a mouth surrounded by a thread, a lid, a sealing ring and a closure mechanism formed by a disc with a hollow interior and a perimetral tubular skirt provided with an engagement configuration complementary to the thread of the receptacle. The closure mechanism surrounds the lid and holds it against the mouth of the receptacle by means of a threaded attachment between the engagement configuration of the closure mechanism and the thread of the receptacle, assuring proper hermetic closure of the lid with the receptacle in cooperation with the sealing ring. The lid and the closure mechanism have mutually engaging elements with a complementary non-circular geometry and size, with both elements being tightly fitted preventing relative rotation of the closure mechanism with respect to the lid.
