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 reclosure system comprising a bottle and a reversible lid. The bottle comprises a bottle neck having an axial extension and a mouth providing access to the interior of the bottle. The bottle neck comprises a circumferential wall portion being provided with a first locking means. A first side of the reversible lid comprises a collar comprising a second locking means configured to selectively allow the reversible lid to sealingly close off the mouth of the bottle neck by the second locking means engaging the first locking means of the bottle neck. A second side of the reversible lid, opposite the first side, comprises a third locking means configured to selectively engage the bottle neck, to define a through-going venting hole in an interface between the reversible lid and the bottle neck, said through-going venting hole allowing a communication between the interior and exterior of the bottle.

A vessel includes an inner container, an outer container, a connector, a cap, and a lid. The outer container includes a first coupler and an outer chamber. The inner container includes a second coupler and an inner chamber to hold a liquid. The inner container is receivable at least partially within the outer chamber. The connector includes a third coupler that is complementary to the first coupler, and a fourth coupler that is complementary to the second coupler. When both the first coupler is engaged with the third coupler and the second coupler is engaged with the fourth coupler, the outer chamber is entirely enclosed within a liquid-proof barrier.

Reversible lid (1) for a storage or reheating canister, comprising a first (2) airtight attachment means designed to cooperate with an upper edge (4) of a container (5) when the lid (1) is arranged along a first direction on the container (5) and a second (3) airtight attachment means designed to cooperate with said upper edge (4) of the container (5) when the lid is arranged in the reverse direction on the container (5), characterized in that the lid (1) comprises a two-way steam release mechanism (10), connecting the two opposite surfaces of the lid, and in that said two-way release mechanism (10) allows a flow to pass between the two surfaces of the lid (1) when the pressure difference between the two surfaces is greater than or equal to a value (P0), particularly when reheating food in a microwave oven.

A convertible child resistant closure for use with a container having a threaded portion adjacent the container opening allows a user to select between a child resistant closure and an easily openable closure and includes coaxial inner and outer caps. The inner cap has a cover wall and a side wall. The side wall includes an inner surface having a threaded portion for engagement with a threaded container opening, and an outer surface including a child resistant portion comprising a series of angular abutments extending thereabout and a non-child resistant portion axially offset from said child resistant portion. Features of a side wall of the outer cap selectively engage features of the inner cap side wall in either a configuration for the child resistant closure or a configuration for the easily openable (non-child-resistant) closure.

A reclosure system comprising a bottle and a reversible lid. The bottle (100a-100e) comprises a bottle neck (4a-4e) having an axial extension and a mouth (6a-6e) providing access to the interior of the bottle (100a-100e). The bottle neck (4a-4e) comprises a circumferential wall portion (5a-5e) being provided with a first locking means (7a-7e). The reversible lid (200a-200e) is configured to be removably connected to the bottle neck (4a-4e). A first side (21a-21e) of the reversible lid (200a-200f) comprises a collar (23a-23e) comprising a second locking means (27a-27e) configured to selectively allow the reversible lid (200a-200e) to sealingly close off the mouth (6a-6e) of the bottle neck (4a-4e) by the second locking means (27a-27e) engaging the first locking means (7a-7e) of the bottle neck (4a-4e). A second side (22a-22e) of the reversible lid (200a-200e), opposite the first side (21a-21e), comprises a third locking means (30a-30e) configured to selectively engage the bottle neck (4a-4e). In a condition when the third locking means (30a-30e) engages the bottle neck (4a-4e), a through-going venting hole (8a-8e) is defined in an interface between the reversible lid (200a-200e) and the bottle neck (4a-4e), said through-going venting hole (8a-8e) allowing a communication (A; B) between the interior of the bottle (100a-100e) and the ambience.
