A high quality child resistant container comprising a durable metallic reservoir and durable plastic metal cap. The child resistant container comprises a durable and rugged reservoir and similarly durable locking cap. The cap is secured to the reservoir by a threaded, or bayonet-style connection. Once installed on the reservoir, the cap is prevented from being easily removed by a child, due to child resistant features integrated in the design of the cap and reservoir. Also, a method of reducing friction between the sealing surfaces of a sealed container. Specifically between the reservoir, cap and seal of a container, which allows easier closing of containers which require a simultaneous compression and twist motion to close.

A bowl may be configured to include an outer body that has a u-shaped cross section, and the outer body may have a bottom configured to support the bowl on a surface, the bottom also including a circular groove around a circumference of the bottom and a bracket within the circular groove, wherein a foot is inserted within the groove, and wherein the foot is secured to the circular groove by the bracket. The bowl may include an inner body, wherein the inner body is concave and dome-shaped. The inner body may hold a liquid or solid, and the inner body is connected to an upper edge of the outer body. An internal cavity is formed by the outer body and inner body, and the internal cavity is insulative. The connection formed by the upper edge of the outer body and the inner body may be seamless.

One aspect of the invention provides a cap comprising: a plane defining an opening and a slidable closure adapted and configured to seal the opening. The slidable closure includes: a projection extending above an external surface of the plane and a flexible seal coupled to the projection and located on an internal surface of the plane opposite the projection. The flexible seal includes: a connection portion coupled to the projection; a sealing portion having a profile that is complementary to a shape of the opening; and a flexible hinge adapted and configured to bias the sealing portion against the internal surface. Another aspect of the invention provides a container assembly including: a container and the cap as described herein coupled to the container.

An assembly for a portable blender. The assembly having a housing that is configured for coupling to a container. The assembly has at least one battery, a motor electrically connected to the battery, a blade coupled to the motor, and a user input device operable to cause power to be sent from the battery to the motor so that the motor rotates the blade. At least a portion of the blade is positioned outside of the housing so that the blade is configured to be positioned in an interior space of the container when the housing is coupled to the container. The assembly may include a plurality of batteries each positioned radially outward from the motor with the batteries positioned circumferentially around the motor. A portable blender including the assembly and a container. The container having a dual-wall, vacuum insulated construction.

In a vacuum insulating container, an outer cylinder has a first annular wall that extends radially inward so as to be inclined with respect to an aperture plane of the outer cylinder at an open end of the outer cylinder and has a tip end part spaced apart from an outer peripheral surface of the inner cylinder; an inner cylinder has a second annular wall that extends radially outward so as to be inclined with respect to the aperture plane of the inner cylinder at an open end of the inner cylinder and faces the first annular wall; and an annular sealing member formed of an elastic body having a low thermal conductivity is compressed between the first annular wall and the second annular wall.

A bottle having a reclosable and resealable lid is disclosed. The bottle can have a removable pedestal base. The base can elevate the remainder of the bottle off of the surface upon which the bottle is resting. The lid can have a seal for a drinking mouthpiece outlet and a pressure equalization port. The lid can have a concave indentation or seat aligned with a hinge connecting a top of the lid to a base or rim of the lid. When opened, the seat can rest against the lid rim, opening the lid to more than a 180 lid opening angle.

An optimized thermal bottle, including a first compartment and a second compartment configured for containing drinks; a cap able to close the optimized thermal bottle in correspondence with an upper portion of said optimized thermal bottle. The first compartment and the second compartment are adjacent and form a thermos.

Container assemblies including an insulated cap for sealing the mouth of the container, the insulated cap including an outer shell, an insulation block defining a plurality of elongate voids disposed at least partially within the outer shell, a securing element configured to secure the cap to the container, and a sealing member configured to form a seal between the insulated cap and the container when the insulated cap is secured to the container by the securing element.

A reversibly sealed, double-walled vacuum canister for housing temperature-sensitive medications and protecting them from ambient temperatures outside of recommended storage temperatures, and including multiple storage areas within the canister's temperature-protected cavity.

A food jar is described that may be used to store and transport food items. The food jar includes a container. The container defines an interior to store a food product. A stopper is sized to close an opening of the container. A base removably engages to a lower portion of the container.
