A rimless lid (10, 97, 99) for a container, the rimless lid comprising: a cover member having an outer side (1) and an inner side (3) and a peripheral edge (5); and a reinforcing arrangement comprising one or more reinforcing members (30, 140, 530, 540, 630, 640) located at the inner side (3) of the cover member; wherein at least one of the peripheral edge (5) of the cover member or the one or more reinforcing members (30, 140, 530, 540, 630, 640) is/are configured to frictionally engage an internal wall of the container when the lid is mounted thereto.

A container lid is provided herein having structurally reinforcing ribs therein. The ribs increase the strength of the lid across a central region thereof. Specifically, the lid can have an outer perimeter and the ribs can be spaced inwardly from the outer perimeter. The inwardly spaced ribs can provide a distinct look for consumer differentiation. Additionally, the ribs can be arcuate so that they generally follow a curvature of the outer perimeter of the lid. As such, a label region within the lid central region is preserved, while the lid is still strengthened by the ribs.

A thermoformed packaging container includes a base section having a bottom surface, first and second inner and outer base side walls, and first and second inner and outer base end walls forming a chamber, with at least one outer base one side wall having a plurality of base indentations and protrusions formed therein. A cover section having a top surface, first and second cover side walls, and first and second cover end walls, the cover section adapted to cover the base section when in a closed state, with at least one of the cover side walls having a plurality of cover indentations and protrusions formed therein for engaging with the plurality of base indentations and protrusions. The container also includes a closure mechanism for securing the container in a closed position, wherein the closure mechanism is formed within at least one end wall of the base section and a corresponding end wall of the cover section.

Containers for storing food in a storage compartment may include a base portion of the container. The storage compartment is sealed with a film to get the food stored in the storage compartment fresh. The container further includes a reversible lid that is able to attach to the base portion of the container in two different configurations. In a first configuration the reversible lid attaches to the base portion without affecting the seal created by the film. In a second configuration the reversible lid attaches to the base portion when the lid is inverted and the film is removed from the base portion.

A lid releasably connects to the rim of a container, such as a soda can or a disposable cup, and functions with the container as an effective insect trap. In operation, the lid is attached to the top of the container with a funnel positioned over and extending towards the topside of the container such that an insect attracted to sugars within the can may crawl or fly from the surrounding space into the funnel and enter the container through the bottom of the funnel and thereby become trapped in the container. The sidewall of the lid can have multiple tiers that fit different sized cans or cups or can have a single tier. Regardless of the number of tiers in the sidewall, the sidewall's riser portion that fits over the container's rim is vertical and its interior surface does not have any concavity so no water-tight seal is formed.

The invention relates to a packaging comprising a plastic container (2), comprising side walls (20, 21, 22, 23) meeting in corners (24), an upper opening (25) and a bottom (26), as well as a detachable plastic lid configured to cover the upper opening of the container (2), and wherein said side walls (20, 21, 22, 23) of the container are divergent, together forming a truncated pyramid, configured so that said container can be stacked in an identical container. According to the invention, said container has projecting portions (29) extending from side walls at the upper opening (25) of the container, said projection portions (29) being external to the container, configured to guarantee a constant stacking pitch between the container (2) and said identical container, when said container is stacked in said identical container.

A container includes a cup and a lid. The lid is adapted to mate with a brim included in the cup to close a top aperture opening into an interior liquid-storage region formed in the cup.

A lid for a container holding a flowable contents comprising a first section brim mount member, unitarily molded and reversibly securely sealed onto an upper end rim of a container forming a raised ring-shaped crown portion with two opposing drinking access ports, circumscribing a second elevated recessed planar region forming a recessed centrally configured hatch opening in the top wall. A second section hatch cover member is unitarily molded, sized and shaped to concentrically fit over, and reversibly securely seal the recessed hatch opening in a co-planar configuration. The hatch cover member is securely and reversibly joined in a non-permanent manner to the top wall of the brim mount member via a ball and socket-type hinge pivoting the hatch cover member quickly and reliably about an axis line parallel to the top wall of the brim mount member rotatably between a closed position and an opened position.

A container includes a lid and base having flanges that are initially attached to each other by engagement of attachment regions of fixed and frangible engagement mechanisms provided in the flanges. Each of the frangible engagement mechanisms is frangibly detachable from its flange, and includes at least one wing extending from its attachment region. During a first opening of the container, the attachment regions initially remain fixed together, while the wings are bent at an oblique angle from the plane of the flanges. Upon reclosure of the container, the wings remain obliquely bent, and provide a readily apparent tamper indication. Wing hinges can be included between the wings and attachment regions to enhance the wing bending during initial opening. The lid and base can be separate, or can be attached to each other by a hinge, such as a living hinge or a scored hinge.

The present disclosure relates to child-resistant containers and methods of making same for oral products made or derived from tobacco, incorporate tobacco, or may be tobacco-free and are intended for human consumption.
