A decompression absorption bottle is formed of a synthetic resin material and has a cylindrical shape with a bottom. A bottom wall part of a bottom part includes a ground contact part; an upright peripheral wall part; and an annular movable wall part, the movable wall part is disposed to be freely rotatable in a vertical direction, the movable wall part is provided with an annular recess, and the annular recess is configured that an inner corner part having a V-shape or a U-shape protruding inward in the radial direction of the bottle when viewed from below, and an outer corner part having a V-shape or U-shape protruding outward in the radial direction of the bottle are alternately continued to each other in the circumferential direction of the bottle.

A preform for a stretch-blow-molded plastic container includes an elongated, tube-like preform body. An outer wall and an inner wall delimit a bottom thickness (b). An outer wall and an inner wall delimit a wall thickness (w). An inner surface and an outer surface (E1) curved in three-dimensionally convex manners are spaced apart such that a distance from their respective apex (S, S′) to the preform body continuously increases. Extensions of the outer wall of the preform bottom along the outer three-dimensionally curved surface (E1), and of the inner wall of the preform bottom along the inner three-dimensionally curved surface (E2) are configured to be interrupted by set-backs area outside of their respective apex (S, S′) thereof.

A polymeric container formed from a preform and configured for storing a commodity under pressure. A base of the container includes a standing ring configured to support the container upright when the standing ring is seated on a planar standing surface. A curved diaphragm of the base extends from the standing surface to a center of the base. A plurality of dimples are defined by the base and are evenly spaced apart along the standing surface.

A wine bottle is provided with a punt at a lower end which includes a cork retainer therein. A cork can thus be stored within the cork retainer. In one embodiment, the cork retainer includes two retainer surfaces which are opposing each other horizontally, and spaced apart by a length similar to opposing portions of the cork to allow the cork to fit tightly between these retainer surfaces. Space above the retainer surfaces can hold a foil wrap with the cork within the cork retainer and holding the foil wrap in place. Full re-use of the bottle is thus facilitated. In one embodiment, the bottle has an octagonal shape so that multiple bottles can be shipped together and placed adjacent each other with flat surfaces distributing loads therebetween, without forces concentrated at points thereof, and to keep the bottles in good shape for washing, refilling and re-use.

Provided is a bottle which includes a neck portion configured to receive a cap to seal the bottle, a lower portion including a bottom on which the bottle is configured to stand erect, an upper portion extending from the neck portion to the lower portion and an annular rib. The annular rib defines a transition between the lower portion and the upper portion and protrudes outwardly with respect to both the upper portion and the lower portion of the bottle. The upper portion, lower portion and annular rib are portions of a single entity formed from one material. The upper portion is configured to reversibly collapse into the lower portion.

A polymeric container formed from a preform and configured for storing a commodity under pressure. A base of the container includes a standing ring configured to support the container upright when the standing ring is seated on a planar standing surface. A curved diaphragm of the base extends from the standing surface to a center of the base. A plurality of dimples are defined by the base and are evenly spaced apart along the standing surface.

A dispensing unit has a wall-mountable support device and a dispenser. The support device has a mounting body having a foot from which an engagement projection protrudes, a covering body having a gripping portion with a collar engageable with the dispenser, and security means suitable for forming a snap-engagement between the covering body and the mounting body. The engagement projection has a predefined configuration for univocally coupling with a bottom of a bottle of the dispenser.

Disclosed are polymer vials (110, 210) and injection stretch blow molding methods for making the same. A polymer vial has a base (112) having a base surface area and a sidewall (114) extending up from the base. The base and sidewall define an interior (116) configured to house product, the sidewall narrowing at an upper section of the vial to form a neck leading to an opening that provides access to the interior. The vial is optionally round and symmetrical about a central axis, a lower portion of the sidewall including a first surface that is outwardly curved along a first radius having an imaginary center positioned within the vial. The base is positioned below the first surface and is substantially flat such that at least 80% of the base surface area has a standing base surface occupying a single plane.

The invention relates to a drinking glass, which contains a bottom (3) and a wall and can be detachably placed onto the upper end of a beverage bottle (1) in the opposite direction, wherein the wall of the drinking glass (2) at least partially surrounds the beverage bottle (1). According to the invention, the inside of the wall of the drinking glass (2) follows the outer wall of the beverage bottle (1) at a slight distance over the entire height of the drinking glass (2). The drinking glass is able to hold substantially the entire content of the beverage bottle. The drinking glass (2) can be fastened to and detached from the lower end of the beverage bottle at the opening rim of the drinking glass.

A plastic, hot-fillable container is provided. The container comprises a blow molded body defining a longitudinal axis. The body including a base and a neck having at least one rib disposed about at least a portion of a circumference of the neck and transverse to the axis, and at least one angled thread. The at least one rib defining a cross section having a first portion and a second angled portion. Container systems and methods of manufacturing containers are provided.
