A container with a first portion configured to hold a food item, a second portion configured to hold a condiment or sauce for the food item, and an integrated lockable lid for maintaining the food item and condiment/sauce within the container.

Described herein is an improved bottle and lid design that eliminates the need for lids on bottles that require unscrewing, snapping, or other exertion to remove and/or replace the lid.

Systems and methods for providing compostable food containers that preserve the quality of a food product for an extended duration of time, and which optionally allow for cooking of the food product therein. In some implementations, the food containers are sturdy, stackable, insulating, and require minimal or no manual labor to assemble. In some implementations, the food container includes a base and a cover which cooperate to form a closed chamber for supporting, protecting, insulating and optionally cooking a food product, such as a pizza. The base and cover may each be formed of a single layer of material including, but not limited to, molded sugarcane fiber (bagasse), molded wood fiber, molded bamboo fiber, molded paper or plastic.

A package includes a base, a lid, and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism includes an arm and a flexible member. The arm extends from the lid and has a first engaging structure. The member includes a flexible rib connected to a base floor, and a second engaging structure and a contact structure on a rib outer surface. The member flexes in response to a first force applied in a first direction to the contact structure and relaxes in response to absence of the first force. The member engages the first and second engaging structures based on the member being relaxed while the lid is closed. The member disengages the first and second engaging structures based on the member being flexed while the lid is closed. The lid may be opened based on applying a second force to the lid in a second direction while the member is flexed.

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 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 can comprises a can body (10) and a lid (4). The can body is manufactured using only a single homogeneous piece of material and has an edge that defines a top opening into the can. The can body also has an inwardly directed bead (23), which extends around the body, is adjacent to the can body edge, and defines an inwardly facing sealing surface (24) of substantially constant transverse cross-sectional dimension along an axial extent. The lid defines an outwardly directed sealing surface which abuts the inwardly facing sealing surface presented by the inwardly directed bead in order to seal the lid to the can body. An alternative can body has an inwardly directed pinched or collapsed bead which defines an upwardly facing sealing surface (34) for engagement with a downwardly facing sealing surface of a can lid. The alternative can body additionally has an inwardly directed bead (35) between the can body edge and the pinched or collapsed bead. An outer brim (42) of the lid is configured to be retained between the two beads of the alternative can body.

A lid includes: a brim sealing channel at a periphery of the lid; an outer sipping sidewall positioned within a circumference of the brim sealing channel and extending above the brim sealing channel; a sipping topwall adjacent to the outer sipping sidewall; a sipping port in the sipping topwall; and a central recess within the circumference of the brim sealing channel and proximate to the sipping topwall, wherein the central recess has an overhang and a bottomwall; and a rotatable closure tab includes: a central portion; a flanged-shaped structure at a first side of the central portion; a tab sidewall supported by the flanged-shaped structure; a tab topwall extending outwardly from the tab sidewall and away from the flanged-shaped structure; a sealing depression in the tab topwall; and a retention rim extending radially from the central portion and positioned between the overhang and bottomwall of the central recess.

Packaging comprising, on the one hand, a plastic container having lateral walls, a top opening and a bottom, and, on the other hand, a removable plastic lid that is configured to cover the top opening in the container, wherein the container is provided, at its top opening, with a first engagement portion bearing and outward-directed rim that extends around the periphery, the lid being provided, on its peripheral part, with a second engagement portion that is folded downward and has an inward-directed rim which is able to latch underneath the outward-directed rim of the container, and wherein the second engagement portion of the lid has a skirt with foldable skirt section, the free end of which catches in a reception portion of the container.

In one embodiment of the invention, a versatile square lid includes: a lid body comprising a square configuration; and a plurality of square rings formed in the lid body; wherein the plurality of square rings includes a first square ring that is configured to receive a first square container having a first size and a second square ring that is configured to receive a second square container having a second size. In another embodiment of the invention, a versatile square lid includes: a square lid body comprising a center portion, a bendable lid portion, and an edge portion; wherein the bendable lid portion is between the center portion and the edge portion; and wherein the bendable lid portion is configured to bend in an upward direction and bend in a downward direction.
