A plastic, hot-fillable container is provided. The container comprises a blow molded body defining a longitudinal axis. The body including a base and a neck having at least one rib disposed about at least a portion of a circumference of the neck and transverse to the axis, and at least one angled thread. The at least one rib defining a cross section having a first portion and a second angled portion. Container systems and methods of manufacturing containers are disclosed.

A bottom section has a ground contact section which is provided at the outer periphery of a body section, and a raised bottom section which is provided inside the ground contact section. The raised bottom section is provided with a recessed section provided at the center, and a connection section which connects the recessed section and the ground contact section. The recessed section side end of the connection section is configured to be located closer to the neck side than the ground contact section side end when inner pressure is at ambient pressure.

A container may have a base, a sidewall connected to the base, a bell connected to the sidewall, and a finish connected to the bell. The base may have strap ribs to resist deformation of the base. The sidewall may have recessed columns to resist bending, leaning, crumbling, and/or stretching. The strap ribs and recessed columns may vertically line up along a central axis of the container to communicate forces on the container vertically along the container to continuously resist.

A plastic container (10) having an upper portion (16) including a reclosable and resealable open top end (18), a base portion (24) closing off an end of the container, and an intermediate portion (22) being integrally formed with and exiting from the upper portion to the base portion. The intermediate portion includes by a plurality of horizontal ribs (42) arranged substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the container, at least one of the horizontal ribs being disposed longitudinally between an upper land and a lower land. The container has a volume capacity is 235 ml. or greater and a plastic weight of 20 g or less. At least one of the plurality of horizontal ribs has a horizontal rib depth (DR) of at least 4.5 mm and a horizontal rib width (WR) to horizontal rib depth ratio of between 2.2 to 2.7.

Method for processing hot-filled plastic containers are provided. In some embodiments, the method may include hot-filling a plastic container, sealing the container, and conveying the sealed container, each with an inner annular wall and a push-up portion in a first position. In some embodiments, the method may further include creating a vacuum pressure in the hot-filled and sealed container and repositioning the push-up portion from the first position to a second position under a mechanical force.

A stackable liquid vessel may be able to receive, store, and dispense various liquids or fluids, such as beverages, cooking oil or vinegar, motor oil, and/or other appropriate materials or substances. Each stackable liquid vessel may be able to at least partially couple to at least one other stackable liquid vessel. An arrangement of stackable liquid vessels may utilize perforated slipsheets to reduce material usage when packing, shipping, storing, and/or displaying multiple stackable liquid vessels (e.g., a pallet of stackable vessels).

The present invention relates to a container with a side wall of plastic encloses a container volume. Horizontally oriented grooves spaced vertically apart from one another are formed in the side wall, and the grooves include first grooves for stiffening the side wall. The first grooves have a first groove depth and are configured such that a projection protruding into the enclosed container volume is formed in the inner surface of the side wall. The grooves also include second grooves having a second groove depth. The first groove depth is greater than the second groove depth. The first and second grooves are arranged such that at least one second groove is in each case arranged in the vertical direction between two first grooves. The subvolumes enclosed by two horizontal planes, which are defined by two adjacent grooves, and the side wall are in each case identical.

A collapsible travel bottle comprising a flexible main body comprising an inner space for receiving a liquid therein, the main body including an upper portion, a middle portion, and a lower portion, an opening in the upper portion in communication with the inner space to allow receiving and discharging of the liquid within the flexible main body, a rigid collar coupled to the upper portion proximate the opening, a rigid cap coupled to the rigid collar to restrict receiving and discharging of the liquid within the flexible main body through the opening, the middle portion configured to enable both the top portion and the middle portion to collapse fully into the bottom portion.

A container with separable laminated layers includes an outer layer body, an inner layer body separably laminated on an inner surface of the outer layer body and capable of undergoing volume reduction and shape change, and an ambient air inlet continuously extending between the outer layer body and the inner layer body. The container with separable laminated layers has a bottle shape including a tubular mouth, a shoulder continuous with the mouth, a trunk continuous with the shoulder, and a bottom continuous with the trunk. The trunk includes a squeeze area that is continuous with the shoulder via a circumferential step portion or a circumferential rib portion. The step portion or the rib portion is provided with a recess that is concave toward an inner side of the container.

A delamination container includes a neck portion having an opening communicating with an inside of the inner layer, a shoulder portion continuously extending in the radial direction from the neck portion, a body portion having a bottomed cylindrical shape, and a constricted portion interconnecting the shoulder portion and the body portion. The diameter of the outer peripheral edge of the shoulder portion is 40 mm or more and 55 mm or less, the axial length from the outer peripheral edge of the shoulder portion to a constricted bottom portion which has the smallest diameter in the constricted portion is 12 mm or more and 25 mm or less, and a ratio of the diameter of the constricted bottom portion to the diameter of the outer peripheral edge of the shoulder portion is 0.80 or more and 0.93 or less.
