Sealable Container System
A sealable container system contains a body and a lid assembly. The body includes an internal volume defined by bottom and side wall(s), bump(s) on the inside surface of the side wall and projecting toward the internal volume, and a lid with outer and inner walls at its bottom side with a channel in-between. A gasket couples to the lid with a wall portion residing within the channel and a lip outside the channel. When the lid assembly is pressed into the body, the lip of the gasket engages the bumps and deforms, and a gap forms between the lip and the side wall, where air in the internal volume exits through the gap. When the lip of the gasket travels past the bumps, the lip fully seats against the inside surface of the side wall, where negative air pressure is imparted to the internal volume of the body.
PACKAGING BOX
A packaging box includes a bottom plate, two cover plates, two external plates, two internal plates, and four flaps. Each of the flaps has an engaging opening. When the packaging box is formed, the four flaps are respectively folded to closely contact the corresponding external plates, and the two internal plates are respectively folded to be inserted into the engaging openings of the two flaps on the corresponding sides, to save materials of the packaging box.
PACKAGE FOR A FOOD AND A TOPPING
Disclosed is an improved food package that includes a food bowl having an open top and a closed bottom and in which a food (e.g., hummus) and a topping are packaged. A sealing ledge extends inwardly from the food bowl downwardly from and below the open top thereof. A peel-off film that is sealed against the sealing ledge extends laterally across the food bowl above and in close proximity to the food and the topping. The peel-off film closes the food bowl and prevents the food and its topping from spilling out. By virtue of locating the peel-off film below the open top of the food bowl, a relatively low volume airspace is established between the film and the food to prevent a premature mixing of the food and the topping when the food package undergoes a high pressure processing (HPP) treatment.
CONTAINERS FOR TRANSPORTING AND DISPOSING OF RECALLED AIRBAG INFLATORS
Embodiments described herein include layered mesh containers and methods for using the containers to safely transport and dispose of airbag inflators having ammonium-nitrate-based propellant. For example, a container is provided that can hold multiple airbag inflators and withstand up to 4 moles of matter being deployed from an inflator having ammonium-nitrate-based propellant. The container can contain the inflator and any shrapnel associated with the explosion while also venting gases expelled as a result of the explosion. Various container designs are provided, along with methods for using these containers.
Sealable Container System
A sealable container system contains a body and a lid assembly. The body includes an internal volume defined by a bottom and side wall(s) and divot(s) with a cavity at an upper edge of and in an inside surface of the side wall. The lid assembly includes a lid with outer and inner walls at its bottom side with a channel in-between. A gasket couples to the lid with a wall portion residing within the channel and a lip outside the channel. When the lid assembly is pressed into the body, the lip of the gasket abuts the divots and forms a gap with the side wall, where air in the internal volume exits through the gap. When the lip travels past the divots, the lip fully seats against the inside surface of the side wall, and negative air pressure is imparted to the internal volume of the body.
FOOD JAR
A food jar is described that may be used to store and transport food items. The food jar includes a container, a lid, and a vent. As the lid is unscrewed from the container, the vent opens to equilibrate air pressure within the container with the atmosphere. The vent relieves high and low pressure within the container. The food jar may also include stopper with a vent. The stopper may include an upper and a lower stopper that form the vent.
RESEALABLE CAN CLOSURE SYSTEM
Resealable containers comprising a closure system comprising a fixed element and a movable closure element are disclosed. The containers may be constructed to be resealable and improve sanitary conditions of a dispensing aperture and allow for easier opening with the ability to be reseal, over a conventional container. Methods of manufacturing the resealable container and components thereof are also disclosed.
Lid Structure
Disclosed is a lid structure. An upper lid of the lid structure is buckled to a main lid, the upper lid is provided with an opening for a straw to extend out, a locking assembly is disposed between the main lid and the upper lid, and when the straw is bent, the locking assembly can move along a radial direction of the main lid to be inserted and locked in an inner hole in an end portion of the straw, so that water leakage can be avoided when the straw is bent. Due to the fact that when the straw is bent, the locking assembly can move along the radial direction of the main lid to be inserted and locked in the inner hole in the end portion of the straw, the straw is prevented from getting upright due to the bouncing force thereof to result in water leakage.
