A can lid is described that is in particular intended for beverage cans and that differs from the generally known metallic can lids in that the opening region is configured as a tongue tab that is separated from the lid surface by a microgap, in particular a punched gap, extending over the tab periphery and the tongue tab base connected to the lid surface forms a kink bearing that becomes effective on the opening procedure and that is connected to the lid surface, and in that the lower side of the metallic lid is in particular coated over its whole surface in a firmly adhering manner with a plastic material, in particular a plastic film, and this coating is weakened, in particular notched, adjacent to the microgap between the tongue tab and the lid surface.

The disclosure describes embodiments of an apparatus including a first gas chromatograph including a fluid inlet, a fluid outlet, and a first temperature control. A controller is coupled to the first temperature control and includes logic to apply a first temperature profile to the first temperature control to heat, cool, or both heat and cool the first gas chromatograph. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

A lid for a container made of metal and able to contain a substance, it comprises a closing element defined by a line of incision provided with a front portion, an opening lever disposed astride the line of incision and comprising a fulcrum front end disposed at the front of the front portion, and an intermediate region provided with a flexible tongue attached to the closing element, a mechanical element configured to attach the flexible tongue mechanically to the closing element. The mechanical element is disposed essentially tangent to the front portion of the line of incision.

In a package having a dosing spoon for removing a filling material from the package, a container of the package is sealed with a peel-off lid that has a peel-off lid ring and a peel-off film. A leveling bar is provided that may be attached to the edge of the peel-off lid ring after the peel-off film has been removed. The leveling bar may be present in the package especially in combination with the dosing spoon, so that after the package is opened the leveling bar may be detached from the dosing spoon and may be attached to the edge of the peel-off lid ring.

Re-closable mobile packages are disclosed. An example can end includes a center panel having a pour opening, a first wall extending from the center panel around a perimeter of the pour opening, and a cover rotatably coupled to the center panel. The cover is rotatable relative to the pour opening between a first position and a second position. The cover interlocks with the first wall when the cover is in the first position to prevent access to the pour opening. The cover exposes the pour opening when cover is in the second position.

Provided is a container for storing, preserving, identifying, tracking and transporting a federally controlled substance having a child resistant and senior friendly lid, and a process for identifying and tracking federally controlled substances within the re-sealable containers. The federally controlled substance containers include a two-piece child resistant and senior friendly lid and a 2-factor authentication identification tag, as well as a microchip for identifying the container controlled substance contents and tracking the container. Controlled substance contents within the containers are optimized for long term storage by removal of the oxygen therein, and the containers and controlled substance contents can be readily identified, detected, tracked and traced after being filled with a federally controlled substance.

A can end including a central panel with an expandable bubble disposed thereon is provided. The use of an expandable bubble allows for an expandable rivet button and thereafter an expandable rivet that has an enhanced overlap of a tab body. Such an expandable rivet allows for the use of a metal sheet with a thinner base thickness.

Re-closable mobile packages are disclosed. An example can end includes a center panel having a pour opening. A first track extends from an upper surface of the center panel around a perimeter of the pour opening. A cover is rotatably coupled to the center panel about a rotational axis. The cover includes a second track. The second track extends partially around a perimeter of the cover such that the second track defines at least a first gap. The second track to engage the first track when the cover is in a closed position.
