A container assembly including a container and a metallic closure. The container includes a polymeric body and a polymeric finish. The polymeric finish includes a plurality of threads. A lug lock is associated with each one of the plurality of threads. The metallic closure includes at least three metallic lugs configured to cooperate with the plurality of threads to couple the metallic closure to the polymeric finish.

A cap for use with a container may include a body having an opening extending there through. The opening may include a product pathway extending from an upper surface of the body, a flow restrictor, and a coupling mechanism configured to removably couple the body to the container. The cap may also include a closure coupled to the body. The closure may selectively cover the opening and include a spoon shape having a concave surface. The body may further include a stop to limit rotation of the closure relative to the body. The body and/or a container configured for use with the body may further include a child lock feature.

A system and method for implementing a cap closure for a carbonated beverage is disclosed. According to one embodiment, an apparatus includes a cap liner having an outer lip and an inner portion. A cross-section of the outer lip includes an upper extension member and a lower extension member. The upper extension member and the lower extension member each defines an outer lip angle from about 35° to about 140°.

A system and method for implementing a cap closure for a carbonated beverage is disclosed. According to one embodiment, an apparatus includes a cap liner having an outer lip and an inner portion. The cap liner is symmetric about a central plane of the inner portion. The outer lip includes an outer nub extending radially outward.

The present invention relates generally to forming a threaded neck in a metal bottle manufactured by a process known as impact extrusion. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods, apparatus and alloy compositions used in the impact extrusion manufacturing of containers and other articles with sufficient strength characteristics to allow threading the container necks to receive a threaded closure on the threaded neck.

A system and method for implementing cap closure for a carbonated beverage is disclosed. According to one embodiment, an apparatus includes a cap liner having a circular ring shape. The apparatus further comprises an outer lip and an inner portion of the circular ring shape. The outer lip is wider than the inner portion, and the outer lip has two or more members extending away from a center of the outer lip.

A cap for use with a container may include a body having an opening extending there through. The opening may include a product pathway extending from an upper surface of the body, a flow restrictor, and a coupling mechanism configured to removably couple the body to the container. The cap may also include a closure coupled to the body. The closure may selectively cover the opening and include a spoon shape having a concave surface. The body may further include a stop to limit rotation of the closure relative to the body. The body and/or a container configured for use with the body may further include a child lock feature.
