A collapsible container, in particular a drinking cup, includes a cup-shaped element (2), made from a flexible deformable material, having a lower base part (3), a top part (4) with an opening (4) and side wall sections (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) arranged therebetween. The side wall sections (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) can be folded towards each other along fold lines (7, 8) formed into the material of the cup-shaped element (2). The cup-shaped element (2) can be folded together by twisting the base part (3) to the top part (4). The fold lines (7, 8) are oriented so that the cup-shaped element (2) constricts, as a result of torsion, between the base part (3) and the upper part (4) when twisting the base part (3).

The present disclosure relates to a snuff container (1) comprising a base (2), wherein said base (2) comprises a bottom wall (21) and a base side wall (22), and wherein the base side wall (22) extends in a height direction (h) of the base (2) and circumferentially encloses a storing compartment (3) for snuff. The base side wall (22) comprises at least one first section (23) extending at least partially in the circumference of the base side wall (22), and the base side wall (22) further comprises at least one second section (24) extending at least partially in the circumference of the base side wall (22) between a first (241) and a second (242) circumferential end portion thereof. Moreover, the at least second section (24) presents a reduced bending stiffness in a direction being essentially perpendicular to the height direction (h) of the base side wall (22) and directed essentially inwardly towards a center of the snuff container (1) in relation to a corresponding bending stiffness of the at least one first section (23).

Child safety lid/cover is provided and used to close the opening of content containers including rigid containers. The cover requires a multiple step process in order to be removed and helps to prevent inadvertent or accidental openings of the container. An embodiment for flexible bags includes the cover and adds a ring member that contains the locking section that the cover/lid is secured to. The flexible bag is secured to the ring member. The disclosed lid/cover can also be incorporated into lids of larger containers, such as, without limitation, relatively large tubs and pails.

The present invention discloses a storage and protection assembly for transporting gas cylinders. The storage and protection assembly of the present invention includes a body with an internal hollow portion for storing a container, and a cap which is adapted to fit within the internal hollow portion of the body. The cap has a primary and a secondary locking mechanism. The primary locking mechanism includes threaded channels on the outer walls of the cap and the secondary mechanism includes spring assisted assemblies which correspond with a plurality of cavities located within the body.

Various shaped packaging containers for storing liquids and/or solid contents. In one embodiment, the container can have a leaf shaped body member. The body member can be opaque or transparent. A base member can be secured to a bottom area of the container. The base can be solid or can be provided with a lid opening at the bottom to provide access to the contents contained within the leaf shaped body member. The lid can be pivotally secured to the base. In a preferred embodiment a novel child safety lid/cover is provided and used to close the opening for the container. The cover requires a multiple step process in order to be removed and helps to prevent inadvertent or accidental openings of the container.

Provided are a food container which is formed to have a sealing moiety integrated with a lid or a container body and is not easily deformed when heated by a microwave oven or the like, so as to be capable of keeping a sealed state, and a method for manufacturing the food container. A food container 10 has a container body 11 having, in the upper surface thereof, an opening 111, and a lid 12 fittable to the container body 11 to close the opening 111. In the lid 12 or the container body 11, a sealing moiety 13 is located which makes the periphery of the opening 111 in a sealed state under a situation that the opening 111 is closed by the lid 12. The sealing moiety 13 includes an elastomer composition which includes a hydrogenated styrene based block copolymer A that has a weight-average molecular weight of 100,000 to 500,000, a softener B for rubber that has a weight-average molecular weight of 500 or more, and an olefin based resin C, and which has a hardness A of 5 to 70 both inclusive, and a compressive permanent strain (CS) of 60% or less at 100 C. over 24 hours. The sealing moiety is formed to be integrated with the lid or the container body, and the lid 12 or the container body 11 includes a polypropylene.

The present invention provides a method of collecting a liquid sample using a leak proof, air tight plastic container device. The method comprises placing the sample in the container device, the device comprised of a container, a lid, a lid groove containing a gasket therein which covers and tightens over the rim of the container, a lid flange, and a thin hook in the container containing a second gasket compressed by the lid flange when the lid is closed over the container; and sealing the sample in the container device by engaging the internal screw threads of the lid with the external screw threads of the container and rotating the lid until resistance to rotation is encountered. The method further comprises transporting the sample to a site for analysis, whereby no leakage of the liquid sample and no air seepage into or out of the container occur during transport.
