The open ended container with resealable lid combination has a seal ring which cooperates with a seal engagement surface to provide a resealable construction to provide at least one of an airtight and watertight configuration after the lid has initially been removed from the container and re-applied. The seal engagement surface preferably provides at least two ramps and the seal ring deforms along at least one, if not both of the ramps.

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.

A food container lid system is provided and generally includes a food container and a lid for covering the food container. The lid may include a base portion and a cover that attaches to the base portion via a hinge. According to various aspects, a user may release the cover from the base portion with one hand by actuating a release member located on the base portion. According to various additional aspects, the lid may include one or more air tight seal structures that prevent food in the container from being exposed to outside air and from leaking.

A beverage container closure or lid that is adapted for closing an open end of a beverage container is provided. The lid is selectively couplable to the beverage container and includes a selectively openable cover that, when closed, creates a fluid-tight seal between the beverage container and the environment. The lid is provided with a dual-locking mechanism including an actuation disk locking mechanism and a press-button locking mechanism. Each locking mechanism is operable to transition between a locking position and an unlocking position and opening the cover to permit the passage of fluid requires that both locking mechanism be in their respective unlocking positions.

A lug closure (10) includes a central top panel (20), an annular channel (30) outboard of the top panel, a downwardly extending skirt (50) outboard of the channel, the skirt terminating at an inward curl (54) that defines a curl height, and lugs (60) formed in the curl. Each one of the lugs includes a body that extends radially inwardly from the skirt. The body includes a leading edge (70a) that merges into a leading portion (80a) of the curl. The leading edge tapers in thickness from the curl height to a minimum lug thickness and forms a leading edge vertical taper angle from horizontal between 6 and 15 degrees. A trailing edge (70b) merges into a trailing portion (80b) of the curl and the trailing edge (70b) tapers in thickness from the curl height to the minimum lug thickness.

Disclosed is a rubber seal for a vacuum receptacle. The rubber seal is not released by a negative pressure developed in the vacuum receptacle. In addition, the rubber seal is excellent in sealing force, and has a body portion that does not bulge outward while being readily mounted on a lid body. The rubber seal includes: the body portion that surrounds the lateral side of an inner space and extends vertically; an elastic sealing wing portion formed to extend outward from the body portion and provided along the circumference of the body portion; and a multi-functional wing portion formed to extend outward from the body portion above the elastic sealing wing portion, and provided along the circumference of the body portion.

A closure is configured to mate with the neck finish of a container. In embodiments, the closure includes an outer wall portion; an upper surface portion; a plug portion including an inner diameter portion; and a plurality of lugs configured to engage a neck finish of the container. In embodiments, a portion of the plug portion engages an inner diameter portion of an upper portion of the neck finish of the container.

A lid is provided which permits a user to drink from a beverage can suspended within the interior of a disposable coffee cup. The user can thereby drink from the beverage can without the user's lips touching the can surface. Also it appears to an observer that the user is drinking from the disposable cup, not the beverage can, and also the beverage can is insulated to keep it cold. According to one embodiment, the lid has a standard outer circumference which engages and seals with the rim of the disposable cup. It also has an inner circular attachment ring attached to the lower inner surface of the lid which has tabs to grasp the rim of the beverage can and form an upper chamber through which the beverage can flow from the beverage can opening to the lid's drinking aperture. A gasket seals the circumference of the circular ring against the beer can. Thus the beverage can is suspended in the interior of the coffee cup and the beverage flows from the beverage can through the lid aperture when the cup is tipped.

A security cover system and apparatus for beverage cans and other containers. The system includes a security cap that is installed upon the top of an unopened container for containing an adult beverage or the like. The cap is adapted for secure installation upon the top of a container having a top with a circumferential rim, such as an aluminum beverage can. The cap has catches engagable with the rim of the container. The system includes an opener tool with a specially shaped key portion thereon. The opener engages with a complementary slot in the cap to permit an authorized person, using the opener tool, to remove the cap from the container.

The invention relates to a lid (1) for closing a can having a tubular side wall (3) provided with a top opening and with an internal radial collar disposed substantially at the same level as said top opening, said lid (1) being provided on its “bottom” face (2) with an elastically deformable annular sealing gasket (4) that is suitable for coming to bear against said collar, when the top opening of the can is in the closed state in which it is closed by said lid (1). In the non-deformed state, said sealing gasket (4) is in the general shape of a half-torus having its convex side facing outwards from the lid (1).
