Combination cutting board and sealable container
The present invention provides stackable food storage containers having a cutting board base with a peripheral channel that may receive fluids from food prepared on the cutting board and that may also receive the peripheral edge of a lid. The lid may include a peripheral gasket for sealing engagement with the base, and may be fastened to the cutting board base with a series of clamps provided on each side. The lid may be operable to cover prepared food on the base without disturbing it for storage and/or transport, and may also provide a water-tight seal along the perimeter of the cutting board and lid. Multiple cutting boards and sealable lids of different sizes may be placed in staggered nestable stacks.
PAINT PAN COVER
The present invention is directed to a cover or lid which fastens about the lip of standard-sized paint trays. The lid substantially seals paint and a roller assembly in the tray from ambient air. The lid also holds the roller assembly in place to prevent undesired movement of the rollers assembly in the tray.
CONTAINER FINISH HAVING IMPROVED RIM PLANARITY
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.
PACKAGING
A packaging, in particular for foodstuffs, including a tray (1) made of cardboard or paperboard and a lid (51), which, when the packaging is in the closed state, is fitted on the tray, wherein lugs (57) of the lid (51) engage in openings (7) which are formed in wall portions (8) of at least two opposite side walls (2, 4) of the tray. The side walls of the tray which have the openings have, in each case in the region above the wall portion which has the at least one opening, a freely upwardly projecting tongue (9), which is connected via a bending line (10) to the wall portion which has the at least one opening, and is located beneath the tongue. In the fitted state of the lid, the tongues of the side walls butt against sloping portions (59) of the lid.
CONTAINER LID AND BRUSH ASSEMBLY
A container lid and brush assembly includes a lid having a body portion including an aperture passing from a topside of the body portion to an underneath side of the body portion. The lid is configured to seal an open top of a paint can and the aperture is configured to receive and secure a handle of a paint brush. The container lid assembly keeps the bristles of the paint brushed wetted during storage.
Flip top plastic lid
A closure for a container is described where the container has an open end and a closed end, the closure engaging the open end of the container, wherein the closure comprises: a collar engaging the container; a lid connected to the collar by at least one hinge; wherein to facilitate engagement the collar extends over and surrounds the open end of the container such that an inner surface impinges on, or is immediately adjacent to, an outer surface of the open end of the container; wherein a plurality of beads extend outwardly from the inner surface of the collar to fixedly hold the collar in engagement with the container, wherein said beads are located substantially uniformly relative to each other and occupy less than 50% of the inner surface of the collar.
Expandable pizza container
An expandable triangular pizza storage container with a set of microwaveable triangular trays for the separation, microwaving and serving of individual slices of pizza. The storage container has a series of concentric triangular compartments that are expanded from a flexible polymer, accordion-style container body. The lid also has a triangular configuration with a replaceable compressible gasket, a set of four locking wings extending from each side that frictionally engage a rigid triangular top ring of the container body, and a central vent. The trays may incorporate uniform concave pockets to facilitate crisping of the pizza crust in the microwave and be of a solid or cored design, of microwave and dishwasher friendly material.
DRINK CUP LID
A liquid container includes a cup having a brim forming an opening into an interior region of the cup. The container also includes a lid configured to mount on the brim of the cup to close the opening.
DRINKING AND SEALING LIDS FOR VESSELS AND ASSOCIATED DEVICES AND METHODS
A sip lid for a children's drinking vessel includes a spout component having a first end region and a second end region opposite to the first end region. The spout component is shaped and sized to be received within a child's mouth. The first end region comprises one or more openings configured to allow liquid to be extracted through the spout component when the child is applying suction to the spout component. The sip lid also includes a base component extending from the second end region of the spout component and surrounding the spout component. The base component is made from an elastic material configured to allow the base component to stretch over differently sized mouths of drinking vessels to form a liquid-tight seal between the base component and the drinking vessels.
Egg Carton with Separate Base and Lid Configurations and Moisture Venting
A rectangular perimeter egg carton comprising: a lid, and a base separate from the lid, wherein the lid and base are assembled together to from a closed egg carton, the base having a top wall and a rectangular array of recessed base cells arranged in rows and columns depending from the top wall, each base cell having an open top end, a sidewall and a closed bottom wall and being sized and shaped to hold one egg in a generally upright position with the long axis of the egg disposed in a vertical direction transverse to a base reference plane in which the bottom walls of the base cells reside; the base and lid having respective mating rectangular perimeter edges, including opposing front and rear side edges and opposing left and right side edges, that mate with each other in a closed position to from the rectangular perimeter egg carton for enclosing an egg in each of the respective cells; and a plurality of spaced apart venting ports formed in each of the perimeter side edges of one or more of the base and lid perimeters for releasing moisture from the closed egg carton.
