This invention relates to a tamper evident container comprising a base, a lid, and a tab, wherein the lid has a hidden edge seated on the base and tab is a separate article that is bonded to the lid. The tab is preferably used to demonstrate overt evidence of tampering with the container and to disengage the lid from the base. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the tab is bonded at first and second tab portions on a lid surface near a middle lid edge of the lid. The second portion of the tab comprises a bonded tab marker and a bridge. When the tab is pulled away from the lid, the bonded tab marker breaks away from the tab at a frangible line, and remains bonded to the lid as evidence of tampering with the container. Absent the marker, the boundaries of the bridge define a finger hole in the tab that may be used to unseat the lid from the base.

There is provided a lid member for a food storage device or container, as well as a food storage system having a lid that can mate with a concave base container, which is stackable or storable via one or more magnetic devices disposed on the lid member or on each of a plurality of lid members. In a related embodiment, a magnetic device is incorporated into a floor panel of the concave base or container for ease of pairing and size matching for storage.

The invention relates to a lid for closing a container, preferably a cup, the lid being made from a paper- or a cardboard-material, wherein the lid comprises a topwall which covers the opening of the container and a sidewall directed at an angle relative to the topwall, wherein one end of the sidewall can engage sealingly with the top end of the container. The present invention further relates to a set comprising a lid and a container.

A container includes a cup and a lid. The lid is adapted to mate with a brim included in the cup to close a top aperture opening into an interior liquid-storage region formed in the cup.

Reclosable cup lids are provided herein. The reclosable cup lid can have a rim portion defining an outer perimeter. A sidewall can extend upwardly from the rim portion, and an upper surface can slope from a first end thereof to a second end thereof. A cavity can be disposed within the sidewall and above the upper surface. A drink aperture can be disposed within the cavity and formed through at least a portion of the upper surface to allow fluid flow therethrough. A slideable tab can be at least partially disposed within the cavity that can have at least two opposing sides that are generally straight, providing a track for the slideable tab.

In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, there is provided an improved disposable aluminum lids configured to have a slight tapering between the raised ridge and the downwardly extending skirt, and further configured to have a rolled lip formed around the entire periphery of the downwardly extending skirt, which includes both the sides and the corners of the improved disposable aluminum lid. The improved disposable aluminum lid is manufactured to prevent cuts and injury to the consumer and allow for proper nested of multiple lids for shipping and storage.

In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, there is provided an improved disposable aluminum lids configured for use with a pan. The lid has a continuously rolled lip around a skirt that when placed on the pan is bent to secure the two together. The rolled lip around the entire periphery of the skirt includes both the sides and the corners of the improved disposable aluminum lid. This significantly reduces the possibility of cuts and injuries to the user with securing the lid to the pan or removing it therefrom.

Systems and methods for providing compostable food containers that preserve the quality of a food product for an extended duration of time, and which optionally allow for cooking of the food product therein. In some implementations, the food containers are sturdy, stackable, insulating, and require minimal or no manual labor to assemble. In some implementations, the food container includes a base and a cover which cooperate to form a closed chamber for supporting, protecting, insulating and optionally cooking a food product, such as a pizza. The base and cover may each be formed of a single layer of material including, but not limited to, molded sugarcane fiber (bagasse), molded wood fiber, molded bamboo fiber, molded paper or plastic.

A pot or pan lid is configured for stacking with identical or differently sized lids that have an identical handle or knob with a dimple on the upper surface. The side of the lid opposite the handle has a complimentary protrusion configured to stably engage the dimple. The edge of the knob may extend laterally to correspond with the lid curvature to also support a similar lid on the knob perimeter that is distal from the dimple. The engaged central dimple and more distal perimeter of the knob provide for stable stacking of a plurality of lids in a level arrangement that avoids one or more lids tipping over.

A lid having an excellent sealability of an opening part of a container is for attaching to an opening part of a container in a removable manner, characterized in including a cover wall and a side wall which surrounds the circumference of the cover wall, which is tapered from an upper end towards an lower end and which is made of a paper material, wherein the cover wall and the side wall are integrated with each other by a standing part formed on the circumference of the cover wall being joined to an inner surface of an upper wall of the side wall, wherein an engaging part for engaging with the opening part of the container is provided on an inner circumferential side of a lower wall of the side wall.
