A liquid-product dispensing container includes a body containing the liquid product to be dispensed, which has a tapered neck on top that is complemented by a closing cap. The container includes a gasket for the neck of the container, having a configuration in the form of a spherical sector or dome that extends downwards into a tubular neck and snugly attaches to the inside of the tapered neck of the container, so that the product contained therein is capable of flowing through the tubular neck when the container is tilted, the spherical dome including small holes for the controlled outlet of the product. The cap includes on its lower face a gasket ring that comes in contact with the holes in the spherical dome during the closing maneuvers of the container, preventing the product from accidentally coming out when the container is tilted with its cap attached to it.

A lid assembly for a drink container is provided. The lid assembly can include a lid and a slider. The lid can include an opening through which a liquid is selectively dispensed. The slider can selectively reveal the opening by sliding along the lid. The slider can include a first slider portion that can slide along a first surface of the lid and a second slider portion that can slide along a second surface of the lid.

An enclosure apparatus includes a base in a substantially horizontal orientation, the base includes a base perimeter that is located at the edges of the base. The enclosure includes at least three walls comprising geometric dimensions substantially corresponding to the geometric dimensions of the base when the at least three walls are attached to one another. The enclosure includes a bottom rim located at the lower-vertical side of the at least three walls. The enclosure includes a top rim of the at least three walls. The top rim includes an upper point and a lower point. The enclosure includes a lid comprising geometric dimensions substantially corresponding to the geometric dimensions of the base and the at least three walls. The enclosure includes a perimeter of the lid comprising an outer point of the perimeter and an inner point of the perimeter.

A pitcher assembly includes a pitcher including a wall connected to a bottom defining a picture volume. The wall defines an opening at the top edge of the pitcher and a spout is formed at the top edge of the pitcher. A lid is removably fitted to the opening, the lid having a vertical wall extending from the skirt at the spout, and a second wall extending into the spout. The first and second walls cooperate with the spout and the skirt to at least partially block liquid from unintentionally splashing out of the pitcher volume. The lid may also include an energy-absorbing material disposed between a vertically displaceable float body and the lid.

A container comprising: a container body that includes a wall portion separating inside and outside and is formed of a long-fiber-reinforced silicon-carbide composite material obtained by combining monofilaments of silicon carbide with a silicon carbide matrix, the wall portion having a thickness equal to a specific dimension; and a lid configured to close an opening of the container body, formed of a material containing at least silicon carbide, and equipped with such a wall portion separating inside and outside that thickness is within a range of 1 to 3 times the specific dimension.

The refillable receptacle makes it possible to suspend an internal container, formed as one piece, in an external pot made of glass, with the container locked in position by a locking portion mounted from above on an upper annular portion of the container already resting directly on a mounting area that is part of an upper neck of the part which constitutes the pot. The locking portion supports a rotatably movable lid and is detachably mounted to a lateral attachment region provided on the neck, by using an annular clamping member which is fixed relative to the neck and which clamps the upper annular portion from above with downward axial pressure against the mounting area in order to prevent withdrawal of the internal container.

Self-closing drum lids that automatically close at controlled rates are disclosed. When the lid is manually rotated to a fully open position, it automatically begins self closing with a transition from a relatively slow rate that allows a user to add material and/or remove material from the drum without having to hold the lid open by hand. After the slow-closing stage, the lid begins to close at a faster rate until the lid rotates to a fully closed position on the drum. The self-closing drum lids may be attached to a drum via a drum band, and may include a latching mechanism.

A closure means for closing an opening of a container includes a lid assembly having a lid cover, configured to provide an upper plate and a lower plate connecting the upper plate via a standing wall. The upper plate has at least one hinge member. A wing member includes a handling portion, a flipping portion, and a stopper portion. The wing member pivotably connects to the lid cover at the hinge member and moves between a first position and a second position. The upward movement of the wing member is limited. A gas channeling means having a first configuration where the container is closed with the closure means. The gas channeling means is biased. The wing member moves from the first position to the second position causing the closure means being moved upwards automatically and causing the gas channeling means transiting from a biased condition to an unbiased condition.

An insulating container assembly can be configured to retain beverages and/or foods. The insulated container can include one of a plurality of container projections or grooves. A lid assembly can include one of a plurality of skirt grooves or projections, corresponding to the plurality of container projections or grooves of the insulated container. The lid assembly may be configured to lock in place on the container by engaging the plurality of skirt grooves or projections with the container grooves or projections when in the locked position.

The present disclosure relates generally to containers and container lids. In at least one embodiment, the disclosed containers and container lids include an improved seal structure that forms a liquid-tight seal. For example, in certain embodiments, the improved seal structure is included on a built-in ring around the rim of the container. In some embodiments, the improved seal structure is included on a separate container ring for attaching to a container. In these embodiments, the contents of the container may be poured out of the container such that virtually no excess content is trapped in-between seams.
