A container having a pair of side walls and end walls and corner walls being provided between a respective end wall and side wall, a flange formed on one of the corner walls, said flange functioning as a hinge, a ring member formed integrally with the flange, the ring being sized to sit on top of the container.

A container includes a base, and a jacket adjoining the base and having a peripheral flange which defines an opening cross section which can be closed by a cover. The cover includes first snap-fit hooks distributed about a periphery of the cover for engagement in complementing first latching openings in the peripheral flange to thereby establish a form fit that prevents a movement away from the base and parallel to a vertical axis of the container in perpendicular relation to the base. The peripheral flange has four corner regions, each provided with a second latching opening for engagement of a second snap-fit hook of the cover. The second latching opening has at least one portion configured curved or inclined in relation to both a transverse axis and a longitudinal axis of the container, or has at least two straight portions extending at an inclination in relation to one another.

The present invention is directed to containers and packaging that incorporate novel tamper evident features that make prominent the evidence of tamper. In particular, the novel tamper prominent containers of the present invention comprise newly designed tamper prominent images, i.e., prominent continuity control (PCC) images. Additionally, the present invention provides novel methods of increasing prominence of the evidence of tamper with a container, e.g., of consumer goods, by incorporating prominent continuity control (PCC) images integrated with a button locking assembly that must be removed to open a locked container making prominent the evidence of tamper through clear visualization in the PCC image, e.g., prominently displaying an image of a broken lock after full fracture and removal of the button locking assembly.

A container with a terracotta lid includes a container having a attached to the container and movable between an open position allowing access to the container interior space and a closed position enclosing the container interior space, with a lid opening arranged to allow air to travel from the container interior space through the lid opening when the lid is in the closed position. An access panel allows access to the container interior space through the lid opening. A moisture-retaining insert such as a terracotta material is removably retained between the lid and the access panel when the access panel is in the closed position.

A sheet of polymeric material is made using an extruding process and articles are formed from the sheet of polymeric material. The sheet of polymeric material and the articles comprise one or more polypropylene resins. In some embodiments, the sheet of polymeric material and the articles formed form the sheet of polymeric material are transparent.

A vial and insert assembly includes a vial having an interior and an opening leading to the interior. The assembly further includes an insert configured to fit within the interior. The insert includes a first receptacle for housing a plurality of unused products and a second receptacle for housing a plurality of used products.

A recloseable lid for closing an open top of a cup terminating in an annular upper edge includes a cup mount defining an annular channel configured to receive the annular upper edge of the cup and a cap having an annular side wall extending upwardly from the cup mount and terminating in a top having an annular floor spaced above the cup mount. A drink opening is disposed in the top and a plug assembly having a drink opening plug is provided. The drink opening plug can be selectively moveable between a closed position in which the drink opening plug is received within the drink opening for closing the drink opening and an open position in which the drink opening plug is not disposed within the drink opening. The lid can also include a plug retainer disposed in the cap and configured to retain the drink opening plug in the open position.

A packaging container includes a base section having a U-shaped perimeter wall and a cover section having a cover outer wall, the cover section adapted to cover the base section when in a closed state. The packaging container includes a closure mechanism including an aperture formed within an outer wall segment of the base section and a projection extending inward from the cover outer wall for engaging the outer aperture of the base section. The closure mechanism retains the cover section over the base section and securing the packaging container in a closed position, wherein an obstructive member obstructs movement of the inner wall segment of the base and prevents the projection from being released from the outer aperture. A release tool is provided for being inserted between the cover outer wall and the base outer wall, wherein the release tool is adapted to move the cover outer wall outwardly to release the projection from the outer aperture, thereby opening the packaging container.

The system of the preferred embodiments is a drink container lid, including: at least one of a permanent and a removable interface designed to attach the drink container lid to a drink container; a bulkhead attached to the at least one of a permanent and removable interface, and designed to keep liquid in the drink container; an opening in the top of the bulkhead adapted to allow fluid to flow into a user's mouth; at least one of a protrusion, a bump, a groove, an indentation, and a rough textured area on a generally vertical surface of the drink container lid, adjacent to the opening and aligned with the positioning of the opening, where the at least one of a protrusion, a bump, a groove, an indentation, and a rough textured area is capable of creating a tactile sensation on a user's lip. The drink container lid is preferably designed to allow a user to locate the opening in the drink container lid using their sense of feel with their bottom lip, allowing a user to drink liquid from a drink container with a lid more easily and potentially without having to look at the drink container, while at the same time allowing the user to properly align the opening in the drink container lid with their mouth to avoid spilling any of the contents of the container. The drink container lid may, however, be used for any suitable purpose.

A container including a base and a cap is provided. The base can include a pull down ramp and first threads on an exterior of the base and the cap can include one or more engagement lugs and second threads on an interior of the cap. The one or more engagement lugs are configured to engage with the pull down ramp to couple the cap to the base and form a hollow section between the cap and the base below the one or more engagement lugs and the pull down ramp and the one or more engagement lugs are configured to disengage from the pull down ramp to decouple the cap from the base when the cap is compressed into the hollow section. The second threads are configured to engage with the first threads to tighten a top of the cap against an upper lip of the base.
