A container comprising a base defining a primary storage compartment; a lid having a peripheral wall that locates over a first portion of the base to close the primary storage compartment; and a cover having a peripheral lip that locates over a second portion of the base so that the base and the cover together define a secondary storage compartment, is disclosed. The primary storage compartment is closed by the lid and the cover is received on the base with the peripheral wall of the lid and the peripheral lip of the cover extending towards each other.

There is disclosed a receptacle (10) comprising: a container (20) having an opening (28), the opening having a circular profile; and a lid (50) for closing the opening of the container; wherein the lid and container are configured to lock together with a rotational friction lock, the rotational friction lock comprising a protruding locking tab (30) on a surface of the container or the lid and a locking surface profile (68) defined on the other of the lid or the container; wherein the locking surface is configured to oppose the locking tab when the lid closes the opening of the container, the locking surface having a locking portion (74), and the locking portion having a continuous surface with a varying radius such that friction between the locking tab and the locking portion varies on relative rotation between the lid and the container.

A container lid can include: a body having an opening formed therethrough; a sipping member rotatably coupled to the body, a passageway formed through an interior of the sipping member so as to extend from a proximal end of the sipping member to a distal end of the sipping member, the sipping member configured to rotate between a stowed position in which the passageway and the opening are misaligned, such that the opening is sealed, and a released position in which the passageway and the opening are aligned; and a flexible handle connected at a first end to the sipping member and rotatably coupled at a second end to the body via a pivot pin. The handle can be configured such that a substantially downward force exerted on the handle causes rotation of the sipping member toward the released position.

A closure is configured to mount on a container to close an open mouth formed in the container. The closure includes a lid and an outer layer coupled to the lid.

A bottle sealing assembly includes a bottle that has a neck. A cap is removably engaged to the bottle for closing the bottle. An elongate panel is provided and the elongate panel is comprised of a non-adhesive material. A plurality of disks is each removably adhered to the elongate panel. A respective one of the disks is removable from the elongate panel and positioned over the bottle when the cap has been removed from the bottle. Furthermore, each of the disks is comprised of a compressible material thereby facilitating the disks to form a fluid impermeable seal between the bottle and the cap.

In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods provided herein are useful for dispensing a fluid, such as a thixotropic fluid. In some embodiments, a bottle having a closure cap includes a flip top, a base, and a disk, where the base and disk define a mixing chamber configured to facilitate mixing of any serum or liquid separated from the fluid back therein. In some configurations, the base has a central opening through which the fluid exits and an internal shaft with a non-planar end surface opposite the central opening. In some configurations, the non-planar end surface and the disk define channels between the mixing chamber and the internal shaft. In some embodiments, the disk includes a central opening, a plurality of partial annular openings through a planar surface of the disk, and projections extending into the mixing chamber.

The present invention relates to a container lid, and a container assembly having same coupled thereto and, more specifically, to a container lid coupled to a container inlet through which contents are received, and a container assembly having the container lid coupled thereto. Disclosed is a container assembly comprising: a container for receiving contents; a container lid coupled to the container inlet; and a sealing member having a bottom surface attached to an upper end of the container inlet of the container, and coupled to the container lid, wherein, when the container lid is separated from the container by means of rotation, adhesiveness between the sealing member and the container lid is greater than adhesiveness between the container inlet and the sealing member such that the sealing member is separated from the container inlet.

A container that can be adjusted in height to enable a user to more easily access and/or remove materials in the container after the material content level in the container has dropped below a certain level.

The present application is directed to a double seam modification tooling apparatus for double seam modification and the double seam modification process. More particularly, a tooling apparatus for double seam modification is provided which adds a third modification operation to the first and second double seam operations which form the finished double seam, as well as a process for modifying double seams to include patterns of integral slots, notches or threads, or the like, after the double seams have been previously completely formed by the double seam modification tooling apparatus. Child resistant lids can then be configured with mating tab notches or tab threads to allow for opening or closing the lid when the tabs are properly aligned with the notches and threads on the can rim modified double seams.
