A bottle for containing an item, generally a pharmaceutical product, wherein the bottle includes a body having a bottom wall and sidewalls, a neck extending from a top portion of the sidewalls and a thread defined on the neck. The neck defining a mouth of the bottle, an internal surface and an external surface. A neck thickness is defined between the internal surface and the external surface. The thread defines a thread thickness. The thread thickness is substantially the same as the neck thickness.

A synthetic resin container has an outer layer body and an inner layer body and formed by biaxial stretching blow molding. The synthetic resin container has a cylindrical mouth portion, a shoulder portion located below the mouth portion and having a diameter gradually increasing downward, a body portion being continuous with a lower end of the shoulder portion, and a bottom portion configured to close a lower end of the body portion. The mouth portion has an outside air introduction port configured to introduce outside air between the outer layer body and the inner layer body, and the shoulder portion has at least one shoulder rib forming a concave or convex shape and extending from the mouth portion side to the body portion side.

A delaminated container has a main body portion and an opening portion. An accommodation space of the delaminated container is formed by a body inner surface of the main body portion and an opening inner surface of the opening portion. The delaminated container includes a first layer and a second layer. The first layer includes a first tightly-attached section. At the main body portion, the first layer is located closer to the body inner surface than the second layer located thereto and is exposed on the body inner surface. The second layer includes a second tightly-attached section. The first tightly-attached section and the second tightly-attached section are tightly attached to each other. The first tightly-attached section and the second tightly-attached section are both located at the opening portion of the delaminated container.

A preform is provided for blow-molding to form a container. The preform includes a finish portion for rotatably engaging a closure to seal contents within an interior of the container. The finish portion comprises a cylindrical body that begins at an opening to the interior and extends to and includes a tamper evidence ledge. A mirror polished sealing surface inside the finish portion cooperates with a plug seal of the closure to seal the container. Threads outside the finish portion engage with similar threads inside the closure. Thread starts of the threads reduce potential damage to the threads during installation of the closure. The thread starts may include a start pitch that is greater than a thread pitch of the threads. A handling valley disposed between the threads and the tamper evidence ledge facilitates air-conveying the container along a manufacturing assembly line.

A plastic container includes a hollow body portion including a lower supporting base portion; a sidewall portion extending upwardly from the base portion; and a neck portion extending upwardly from the sidewall portion. The neck portion includes a support flange having an upper and lower surface, at least one thread, and a dispensing opening at the top of the neck portion. In embodiments, a closure may be provided to form an assembly. A preform and method for making a container are also disclosed.

Aspects of the disclosure include an attachment for providing a scent to a container. In some aspects, a scent delivery system includes a bottle including a collar and a ledge structure each extending circumferentially outward; a scent ring loaded with a volatile chemical agent to emanate and generate a scent and including an interior protruding structure projecting from an interior wall of the ring, the scent ring configured to fasten around the neck of the bottle based on contact between the interior protruding structure and the ledge structure of the bottle; and a cap reversibly attachable to the bottle and including an interior rim structure that circumferentially projects from the interior of the cap, where the cap is structured to enclose the scent ring in a compartment formed between the collar and the interior rim structure when the cap is securely fastened to the bottle and trap the scent.

A preform for being blow-molded to form a container is provided herein. The preform comprises a finish portion that includes an opening to an interior of the preform and includes a tamper evidence ledge. The tamper evidence ledge cooperates with a tamper-evident ring portion of a cap to indicate that the cap has not been previously loosened after being installed by the manufacturer. A neck portion is disposed adjacent to the tamper evidence ledge. A tapered portion transitions from a diameter of the neck portion to a smaller diameter of a cylindrical portion. The cylindrical portion comprises an elongate member that culminates in an end cap. Threads disposed on the finish portion are configured to threadably receive the cap. A handling valley is disposed between the tamper evidence ledge and the threads. The handling valley enables gripping fingers to engage with and air-convey the container along a manufacturing assembly.

A reinforced plastic container having improved rim planarity. The container has a non-round main body portion integral with a finish portion. The main body portion has a central longitudinal axis and defines a hollow interior of the container. The finish portion has an upper surface defining a rim with a circumference framing a round opening that provides access to the hollow interior of the container, a radially outwardly extending snap bead being adapted to receive and retain a closure and hermetically seal the container and including interrupted portions located around the circumference of the rim, and a plurality of reinforcements located in the interrupted portions of the snap bead and assuring substantial planarity of the upper surface of the rim even when substantial forces act on the container. Each reinforcement has a strut bounded by and centered between a pair of strut indents, with each indent supported by a buttress.

A container and integrated connector system includes a first container and an integrated connector. The first container includes a first body having a hollow first interior and a laterally projecting first shoulder disposed on an upper portion of the first body. The first container also includes a first neck, which is disposed on the first shoulder of the first body. The integrated connector is integrally connected to the first body. The integrated connector includes a connector member and a ring structure. The connector member projects laterally from the first body. The ring structure is disposed on a distal end portion of the connector member. The ring structure includes a connector opening, which is configured to fit over a second neck of a second container. The ring structure is operable to be removably secured to the second container when the connector opening is fit over the second neck.

A child-resistant container and closure, the container has a cylindrical neck, and an outer surface of the neck has three lug threads that consecutively run along the circumference of the neck. A pointer pointing upwards is present just below the neck. The closure has a central section and a skirt, the skirt has three male threads, wherein the three male threads can engage with the three lug threads. The outer surface of the skirt has a downward pointing pointer, wherein two pointers must be aligned for engaging and disengaging the three male threads and the three lug threads.
