A container of the present invention may include a base, a lip extending around the periphery of the base, a perforation defined by the lip, and a lid adhered to the lip, wherein the lid includes a first undercut, wherein the first undercut overlaps the perforation. The perforation and undercut allow for a portion of the lid to remain on the lip after the lid has been opened. The portion remaining on the lid may include an outwardly facing adhesive surface, configured to adhere to the lid to reseal the lid to the base once the lid is closed after the initial opening. As such, the lid is permanently adhered to a first portion of the lip and resealably adhered to a second portion of the lip. The first portion may be an outer lip portion and the second portion may be an inner lip portion.

A package for a powdered nutritional product comprises a container for receiving the nutritional product, having a base and a peripheral wall. A lid assembly comprises a circumferential rim, defining an access opening, for connection to the container and a lid, pivotably attached to the rim by at least one hinge having a hinge axis. The lid has an open position and a closed position in which it closes the access opening. The hinge comprises a rim portion, integral with the rim, and a lid portion, integral with the lid, that can be engaged to each other to join the lid to the rim. The hinge is are arranged such that the lid portion can only be engaged with the rim portion in the open position of the lid. In the closed position of the lid, the lid portion is locked to the rim portion, preventing separation of the lid portion from the rim portion. The hinge is also arranged to prevent opening of the lid beyond a point at which the package is unstable.

Disclosed herein are packages such as containers. A container includes a container body including at least one container body interlocking component, a closure configured to refittably attach to the container body, and a shell including at least one shell interlocking component configured to at least diametrically and vertically interference separably fit with the at least one container body interlocking component.

A container of the present invention may include a base, a lip extending around the periphery of the base, a perforation defined by the lip, and a lid adhered to the lip, wherein the lid includes a first undercut, wherein the first undercut overlaps the perforation. The perforation and undercut allow for a portion of the lid to remain on the lip after the lid has been opened. The portion remaining on the lid may include an outwardly facing adhesive surface, configured to adhere to the lid to reseal the lid to the base once the lid is closed after the initial opening. As such, the lid is permanently adhered to a first portion of the lip and resealably adhered to a second portion of the lip. The first portion may be an outer lip portion and the second portion may be an inner lip portion.

The present invention relates to a pail body having a pail end defining a pail opening, a lid closing the pail opening, and a clamping ring clamping the lid onto the pail end, wherein the clamping ring comprises a lever connected to the ends of a split clamping ring, which lever in a closed position clamps the split clamping ring onto the pail end, and in an open position widens the ring, and spring means connecting the lever to at least one of the ring ends, to the clamping ring, and a method for applying the clamping ring to a pail body.

The present disclosure describes a product package having a tray and a combination flexible/rigid lid design that comprises a rigid or semi-rigid frame and a flexible film that is transparent or translucent that is fixedly attached to the frame and releasably attached to the package tray. The novel product package is capable of maintaining a seal until opened by a consumer, allows a consumer to see the product through the lid, can be opened with a single step, and is resealable and/or reusable by the consumer.

Closure for a container mouth, the closure comprising: a cover portion (18) for covering at least a portion of the container mouth; a fastener portion (20) for engaging the container for fastening the closure to the container; and a peelable bracing portion (22) extending generally in a circumferential direction of or around an axis of the closure, the bracing portion overlapping at least partly the cover portion and the fastener portion, and configured to reinforce the closure by bearing, as shear stress at an interface between the bracing portion and at least one of the cover portion and fastener portion, support force in or between one or both of the cover portion and the fastener portion.

The present disclosure relates generally to container systems comprising a container, a container ring, and a container lid. In one or more embodiments, the disclosed container systems use novel designs to provide a liquid-tight seal without the use of gaskets or adhesives. For example, in several embodiments, the container attaches to the container ring, and the container ring attaches to the container lid via a snap-fit assembly to facilitate reduced seams and increased sealing capability without the use of adhesives or additional sealing materials or components.

The present disclosure relates to child resistant containers and methods of making same for products made or derived from tobacco, or that otherwise incorporate tobacco, and are intended for human consumption.

A container having a container element, a lid element removably joined to the container element to form a sealed storage cavity, and a bowl element that removably covers the lid element to protect it during transport. The storage cavity has an interior vertical wall dividing it into multiple storage chambers. The lid element has two openings, each sealably closed by an operable flap movable from an open position to a closed position. In an open position, the flap has a convex outer surface forming a spout for the opening. In a closed position, the flap has a concave outer surface and engages all edges of the opening to seal the opening. When in use, the bowl element can be removably stowed to the bottom of the container element or used as a serving vessel.
