In an easy open can lid a pulling-up direction of a tab acts toward a center of the lid while securing a finger hooking property with respect to the tab, by devising a shape of an embossed portion. In a can lid in which a tab for score breaking is fixed to a main body, and an embossed portion, into which a fingertip is insertable, is provided in the vicinity of a rear end of a finger hook portion of the tab, the embossed portion has a slope formed at a rear end side of the finger hook portion, and the slope of the embossed portion is provided with a guide recess for guiding a fingertip that extends toward the center of the lid at least up to a position thereof facing a central portion in a width direction of a back surface of the finger hook portion.

Non-crosslinked polyolefin films or doped crosslinked polyolefin films (i.e., crosslinked polyolefin films that include a tear-alignment additive) may be used to shrink-wrap packages to create a wrapped package that is protected from tampering and damage but is also easy to open with little effort required by the customer. There is no need for perforations, and the films are quiet when torn, folded, cut, etc. Tear initiating cuts may be formed in the film. A tab may be placed over the film, and when the tab is pulled it applies enough force to start a pair of straight tears. The tears may be parallel or perpendicular to each other. The tears propagate in non-crosslinked polyolefin easily in the machine direction of the film as the tab continues to be pulled. In a doped crosslinked polyolefin, the tears propagate in the machine direction or perpendicular to the machine direction of the film.

A metallic can end having a reclosable opening, a microgap or weakening line provided in the metallic end surface and peripheral about the opening, a sealing frame connected to the end surface and surrounding the opening region, a closure unit connected to the upwardly pivotable metal end region disposed within the microgap or weakening line, that is pivotably attached to the end surface via a pivot bearing. The sealing frame and the closure unit are composed of plastic material and cooperate in a sealing manner with one another via sealing and latching ribs that form sealing edges with associated reception grooves. The metallic can region disposed within the peripheral microgap or weakening line is received and held in the opening region of the end. The sealing edges are configured such that the radially innermost sealing edge still seals when the radially outer sealing edges have just been released.

An automatic opening and closing device for a container comprises a closure flap within the container and a pivot arm with a weighted portion. When the container is in a first position, the centre of mass of the weighted portion is offset horizontally and vertically from the pivot point of the pivot arm and acts to bias the closure flap to close an opening in the container. When the container is rotated in a first direction to a second position, the weighted portion causes the pivot arm and closure flap to rotate relative to the container in a second direction opposite to the first direction, to bias the closure flap away from the opening. In the first position, the weighted portion is offset vertically by a greater distance than it is offset horizontally. A locking mechanism may also be provided, which is operable to the user to keep the container closed even when tilted.

A container includes an end wall having a rivet and a frangible score line that defines a curved tongue shaped panel. The frangible score line terminates at each end substantially on a radial line extending from a lever mounting hole formed within the curved tongue shaped panel. A tab is riveted to the lever-mounting hole to act as second-degree lever. The tab has a first actuating point extending toward the distal looping portion of the frangible score line. The tab has a fulcrum portion extending opposite to the first actuating point and terminating within the curved tongue shape. Lifting of the first actuating point pulls upward on the curved tongue shaped panel at the distal looping portion imparts a shear force of the frangible score line to initiate upward rolling of an extended portion of the curved tongue shaped panel.

The present disclosure relates to a two-side adherable high-frequency induction heating container sealing member, the sealing member comprising: an upper layer that comprises a first thermal-adhesion sealing layer, a first aluminum foil layer, an intermediate base layer, a synthetic resin layer having tensile strength and hardness, and a first thermal-adhesion resin layer, which are successively formed from the top to the bottom, the upper layer having a preformed opening guide cut line-provided opening tab, a preformed opening guide cut strip, and a preformed thermal-adhesion sealing strip; and a lower layer that is formed beneath the upper layer and comprises a second aluminum foil layer and a second thermal-adhesion sealing layer, which are successively formed from the top to the bottom, wherein the first thermal-adhesion resin layer of the upper layer is integrated with the second aluminum foil layer of the lower layer through thermal adhesion.

A container seal includes an inner element and an outer element. The inner element has at least one through hole. The outer element is adhered to the inner element and is releasable from the inner element. The container seal is conducive to preventing a user from being stained with contents of a container covered with the container seal while tearing the container seal. The container seal can be pierced by a soft straw whereby the user sucks the contents of the container.

The present disclosure provides packages that are configured for containing a prophylactic device and a quantity of lubricant material. The package can include a first portion defining a first chamber containing a prophylactic device; and a second portion defining a second chamber containing a quantity of lubricant composition; wherein the first chamber of the first portion and the second chamber of the second portion are arranged to separably engage one another about external surfaces of the first portion and the second portion so as to form a unitary package. The present disclosure further provides methods for providing a lubricated prophylactic device.

A can lid that comprises an opening region provided in the material of the lid surface and comprises a two-armed lever member that is intended to open this opening region and that is connected to the lid material, wherein this arrangement is characterized in that the opening region configured as a tongue tab is delineated from the lid surface by a tear line and the tongue tab base connected to the lid surface forms a pivot bearing that becomes effective during the opening procedure; in that the lower side of the lid is coated with a plastic material in a firmly adhering manner, and this coating of the tear line that covers the tear line is weakened in an adjacent manner; and in that the container part and the can lid at least substantially comprise the same aluminum alloy.

A zipper carton includes a first panel having an elongated slot extending therethrough, the slot having a length extending between opposing ends. A locking panel assembly includes a removable zipper tear strip and a locking tab having a linear length that is greater than the length of the slot. The locking tab includes a base projecting from the removable zipper tear strip and a first retention flap projecting from the base and being foldable relative to the base. The locking tab is configured so that when the first retention flap is folded from a relaxed position to a folded position, at least a portion of the locking tab including the first retention flap can be slid through the slot and after the first retention flap passes through the slot, the retention flap automatically resiliently rebounds at least partially toward the relaxed position so as to block retraction of the locking tab from the slot.
