A substantially moisture tight container and lid assembly for storing and packaging moisture-sensitive items comprising an assembly with a container and a lid, the lid is attached by a hinge to an upper housing portion of the container, the lid includes a lip seal member that depends downwardly from the lid, the lip seal member is configured to abut at least a portion of the interior side of the container when the lid is in the closed position resulting in a substantially moisture tight seal between the lid and the lid, and the container assembly further comprising a base portion and an upper housing portion, the upper housing portion is capable of being snap-fit into the base portion by employing a lip seal mechanism to form a substantially moisture-tight seal.

The present specification discloses a collapsible food container. The container includes a wall portion with an outer surface having a substantially smooth shape. The wall portion is configured to bend from raised position to a collapsed position, with the food container being used to retain food in the raised position and being collapsed for storage in the collapsed position.

A cover structure is disclosed. When an annular sealing portion of a cover body is engaged with a container, a sealing section of the annular sealing portion abuts against an annular inner surface of the container, and then, a folding section of the annular sealing portion is folded to a sealing state, so that part of the folding section abuts against the annular outer surface of the container to form a dual leak-proof sealing structure. The folding section of the annular sealing portion is an annular elastic and full-peripheral tightening structure. Therefore, the sealing between the container and the cover may be strengthened for a good sealing effect, and preventing liquid in the container from being splashed on surrounding articles. When the folding section is in the unsealing state, the cover can be separated from the container, which is convenient to carry and use.

Smooth reach-in orifice acting as a cover or lid. A set of structural ribs are placed around the reach-in orifice acting as a dispensing flip-lid. Structural ribs are placed to the left and right of the orifice and blended with the base sealing rib. The outer wall is an offset wall from the inner reach-in sealing rib, inter structural ribs are connecting both outer and inner profiles. The apparent latch hole design is the existence of a hole on the cover located closed to the front tab, leading to the cover's latching mechanism, a fastening feature allowing the cover to snap itself onto the base. The living hinge is thicker at the outside edge of the hinge. The front lifting tab is a thin ledge, with a width between ⅔ of the full width of the part front face, extending 1.5 to 3 mm off the overall body of the cover.

A collapsible food container, comprising a collapsible container and a lid assembly, the collapsible container including an upper portion, a lower portion, and a seating wall, the seating wall coupled to a first end of the upper portion and the lower portion coupled to a second end of the upper portion opposite the first end, the upper portion being collapsible as to transition the collapsible container between an expanded state and a collapsed state, the lid assembly including a rigid collar and a rigid lid, the rigid collar removably coupled to the seating wall of the collapsible container and the rigid lid removably coupling to the rigid collar.

A two-piece spill proof open cup (10) is disclosed comprising a container (12) suitable for holding liquids, such as a beverage, and a lid (14). The container (12) has a sidewall (13), a neck (15) adjacent the sidewall (13) and an opening (40) defined by the neck (15). The neck (15) has a flange (28) along an edge (42) of the neck (15) and a plurality of posts (30) adjacent the flange (28). The lid (14) is adapted to fasten to the container (12). The lid (14) has an upper surface (46) external to the two-piece spill proof open cup (10) and a lower surface (48) internal to the two-piece spill proof open cup (10). The lid (14) also has a flap (16), a lid body (25) with a vent (22), a hinge (18) connecting the flap (16) to the lid body (25), a handle (20) on the upper surface (46) and a bead (34) having channels (32). The bead (34) is integrated into the lower surface (48). The lid flap (16) is adapted to form a liquid tight seal between the lid (14) and container (12).

A container latching system has an open container with a container lid with extended lip sections. Two slide lock latches are located over the lip sections on opposite sides of the lid. With the lid covering the container, the lip sections overlay the top edges of the container, the slide lock latches overlay a portion of the lip sections, and track slider members in each slide lock latch move along the lip sections to lock and seal the lid to the container.

The present specification discloses a collapsible food container. The container includes a wall portion with an outer surface having a substantially smooth shape. The wall portion is configured to bend from raised position to a collapsed position, with the food container being used to retain food in the raised position and being collapsed for storage in the collapsed position.

A closure system with a three-dimensional structure with an opening and a lid for plugging onto the three-dimensional structure in order to close the opening. The lid is bistably deformable between a first state, in which its end wall is curved in the plug-in direction, and a second state, in which the end wall is curved against the plug-in direction. An annular edge section of the lid has a greater outer circumference in the first bistable state than in the second bistable state and forms a clamping fixture of the lid to a wall region of the opening when the edge section is pressed inwards in the first state or outwards against the wall region in the second state. The three-dimensional structure transfers a force from the outside at specified locations that to a snapping process of the lid from one to the other bistable state.
