The container body may be formed from plastic and the container lid is formed from metal, and the container body may include a vertical neck. The container body may include a lip, and the bottom wall may include a center protrusion. The bottom wall may include a depression, and the bottom wall may include a radial extending depression.

A unit for bonding the container with the lid, made of plastic, designated especially for pressurised beverages, having a profiled rim of the container opening and a profiled rim of the lid, characterised in that the profiled rim of the opening (2) of the container (1) comprises a flange (3) formed around the said opening (2), extending outwards away from the side wall of the container, where the flange (3) has a top surface (4), side surface (5) and bottom surface (6) bonded to the external side surface of the container (1), and where formed on the top surface (4) around the opening (2) of the container (1) there is a rib (7) protruding above the surface (4), while the profiled rim of the lid (8) comprises a groove (9) formed on the bottom surface (10) of the lid (8) around its bottom edge, the groove (9) accommodating the said rib (7) which supports the lid (8) without touching on the top surface (4) of the flange (3), where there is an energy director (12, 13) formed on the bottom of the groove (9) or the top surface of the rib (7), which focuses ultrasonic energy in the process of ultrasonic welding of the rib (7) and the lid (8).

A container, such as a beverage or food can is provided, which includes a first sidewall, a second sidewall and a bottom portion extending between the first and second sidewalls. The material of the bottom portion is stretched relative to the first sidewall and the second sidewall to form a thinned preselected profile, such as a dome. The material of the container at or about the dome has a substantially uniform thickness. The container is formed from a blank of material, which has a base gauge prior to being formed. After being formed, the blank of material of the container at or about the dome has a thickness less than the base gauge. Tooling having a clamp bead, or a progressive clamp bead, for selectively forming a blank of material into a container, as well as an associated method are also disclosed.

A coating composition includes: (a) 60 to 90 percent by weight of an active hydrogen-containing polyester having a number average molecular weight of at least 23,000, an acid value below 5 and a hydroxyl value below 10, (b) 0.1 to 10 percent by weight of a polyanhydride, and (c) 5 to 30 percent by weight of a curing agent reactive with the active hydrogens associated with (a) and (b), the percentages being based on weight of resin solids of the coating composition, where the reaction product of the coating composition forms a single coating without including a thermoplastic polymer. The coating composition is useful in coating food and beverage containers, particularly 2-piece cans formed by drawing and redrawing (DRD).

A liquid storage and dispensing device having at least two internal reservoirs to store two discrete liquids and to dispense the two liquids through a single opening without mixing the liquids until exiting the single opening, the device including a container to store a first liquid and a first reservoir mounted under the lid of the container that stores a second liquid, and an opening mechanism on the top that creates a pour opening in the top and removes a seal from the first reservoir to enable simultaneous dispensing of the first and second liquids through the pour opening while maintaining separation of the first and second liquids until they exit the pour opening.

Multi-compartment containers in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. In one embodiment, a device for storing multiple fluids in multiple compartments comprises a first compartment for storing a first fluid, a second compartment for storing a second fluid, wherein the second compartment is within the first compartment, a lid of the first compartment comprising a first aperture and a second aperture; and a holding lattice for holding the second compartment against the lid of the first compartment, wherein the second compartment is aligned with the second aperture of the lid.

The inventive technology includes a novel container dome profile and manufacturing process for improving container and bottle deformation failure resistance and extending material displacement modes through an initial deformation panel coordinated with complimentary geometric paneling and buttressing structures configured to initiate a controlled sequential dome profile deformation mode. Dome reversal, dome growth, and dome drop resistance characteristics are improved with a shallower profile formation depth, reducing pulldown, and lowering material consumption, resulting in lower overall container/bottle weight. Novel geometric contoured shapes enhance container resistance performance, supporting use of softer alloys or lower temper and yield strength to benefit post-processing efficiency and forming processes improvements while being configured to initiate controlled sequential dome profile deformation.

The Utility Model discloses a barrel with reinforced barrel rim, comprising a barrel body, and a barrel rim upwards extending along the barrel body, wherein a clamping strip extruded from the barrel rim is set around the barrel rim on four sides, the four sides of the barrel rim above the clamping strip are inclined towards the center of the barrel rim, and when the angle between the clamping strip and the four sides of the barrel rim is defined to be A, A is greater than 90° and less than or equal to 135°. The barrel rim in this patent application is reinforced, the inclination design provides the barrel rim the guiding function that when the barrel cover is hung at the barrel rim on the production line, the barrel cover can fall towards the barrel rim along the inclination in a correct way so as to be convenient for the following press; besides, the inclination of the barrel rim can separate the stress of the barrel rim so that the barrel rim can bear more pressure and hardly be deformed when being pressed.

A metallic worked article suppressing the worked surfaces from being scratched during the plastic work that is conducted aiming at reducing the thickness or decreasing the diameter. The metallic worked article has a reduced thickness or a decreased diameter as obtained through the plastic work, wherein on the worked surface thereof, the ratio Ra1/Ra2 of an arithmetic mean roughness Ra1 measured in a direction at right angles with the direction of working and an arithmetic mean roughness Ra2 measured in the direction of working, is from 0.5 to 1.5.
