A canister apparatus configured to protect and seal a range of jars and perishable items therein from light, dehydration, loss of volatiles, and or rapid change in temperature. The canister apparatus comprising a canister lid, a canister base and a cup fit within the canister base. The canister lid may comprise a gasket and a boss that are sized to accommodate an airtight seal of a jar upon insertion substantially within the canister base. The cup is configured to secure a jar upon insertion substantially within the canister base. The canister apparatus may include a jar and a cover configured to couple to the jar.

Storage containers and lids for such containers are provided. The lid has a first lid face and a second lid face. The second lid face has a rim configured to attach the lid to a storage bin. On the first lid face and extending to the second lid face is a plurality of apertures to provide airflow through the lid. A seal material extends from the second lid face that is configured to make the airflow path selectively sealable at a continuous wall and closed surface of a corresponding storage bin.

A beverage container having an oval or elliptical cross-sectional shape is provided. The beverage container comprises a beverage receptacle comprising a cavity surrounded by a container wall configured to store a liquid and an open top portion. The beverage container further comprises a lid configured to be attached to the open top portion of the beverage receptacle to cover the open top portion of the beverage receptacle and comprising an opening formed through the lid configured to dispense the liquid. The lid and at least the open top portion of the beverage receptacle comprise an oval or elliptical shape to provide the beverage container with its oval or elliptical cross-sectional shape. The oval or elliptical shape of the beverage container is configured to improve visibility of a user during use of the beverage container.

A container includes a body defining an inner cavity, where the body has a top opening and a bottom opening, and a removable bottom cap that mates with the body such that the bottom cap covers the bottom opening. The bottom cap may include a seal member disposed on the bottom cap for fluidly sealing the bottom opening. The seal member may include a gasket or any other suitable seal.

A shower head includes a body provided with a waterway. A first switch is movably mounted on the body to be responsible for selectively opening and closing the waterway and a second switch movably mounted on the body to be responsible for selectively changing water output patterns. The first switch has a rear pushbutton, a driving rod movably connected to the rear pushbutton and a diverting element movable relative to the body to be responsible for closing or opening the waterway. The second switch has a front pushbutton, a sliding element having a rack formed on a face thereof, a diverter rotatably received inside the body, a gear rotatably received inside the body and having first ratchet teeth and a rotor having second ratchet teeth selectively engaged with the first ratchet teeth to allow the rotation of the gear to drive the second ratchet teeth of the rotor to disengage with the first ratchet teeth of the gear as well as the rotor and the diverter to rotate accordingly.

A serving container and ring element system that includes a serving dish and a ring element having a ring element lip with a shape that substantially corresponds to a shape of a serving dish lip, wherein portions of the ring element lip are formed to be positionable around at least a portion of the serving dish lip to provide frictional engagement between portions of said ring element lip and at least a portion of said serving dish lip, such that said ring element is capable of securing a foil pan within said serving dish.

According to one example, a removable lid for a container of a vessel includes a valve configured to selectively allow air to vent out of a fluid retaining interior region of the container when the lid is positioned on the container. The valve includes an opening that extends entirely through a thickness of a portion of the lid, and a valve plug. The valve plug includes a valve top portion that extends vertically above a top surface of the portion of the lid, a valve bottom portion, and a valve central portion. The valve top portion is configured to be contracted, by a downward pressure, into a more vertically compact shape. The valve top portion is further configured to, absent the downward pressure, expand back upwards out of the more vertically compact shape.

An apparatus for carrying articles comprising an outer shell extending between top and bottom ends, an attachment for securing the outer shell to a support; and an inner sleeve extending between the top and bottom ends of the outer shell.

Various shaped packaging containers for storing liquids and/or solid contents. In one embodiment, the container can have a leaf shaped body member. The body member can be opaque or transparent. A base member can be secured to a bottom area of the container. The base can be solid or can be provided with a lid opening at the bottom to provide access to the contents contained within the leaf shaped body member. The lid can be pivotally secured to the base. In a preferred embodiment a novel child safety lid/cover is provided and used to close the opening for the container. The cover requires a multiple step process in order to be removed and helps to prevent inadvertent or accidental openings of the container.

This invention relates to a tamper evident container comprising a base, a lid, and a tab, wherein the lid has a hidden edge seated on the base and tab is a separate article that is bonded to the lid. The tab is preferably used to demonstrate overt evidence of tampering with the container and to disengage the lid from the base. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the tab is bonded at first and second tab portions on a lid surface near a middle lid edge of the lid. The second portion of the tab comprises a bonded tab marker and a bridge. When the tab is pulled away from the lid, the bonded tab marker breaks away from the tab at a frangible line, and remains bonded to the lid as evidence of tampering with the container. Absent the marker, the boundaries of the bridge define a finger hole in the tab that may be used to unseat the lid from the base.
