Disclosed herein is a lid for mounting on a cup opening defined by a brim of a cup body. The lid comprises a cover having a substantially planar portion and a recessed opening disposed on the cover; a side wall disposed around the periphery of the cover; a flange extended from the bottom edge of the side wall and forms a trench space for accommodating the brim of the cup body when the lid is mounted on the cup opening; and a breathable film disposed below the substantially planar portion and covered the recessed opening of the cover. The cover and the breathable film of the present lid are integrally formed into a single piece.

A cup sleeve is capable of engagement with a cup lid when being sleeved around a cup. The cup lid has a sleeve engaging member. The cup sleeve includes a sleeve body formed with a receiving space for receiving the cup, and including a bottom portion, a top portion that is opposite to the bottom portion, a surrounding wall that extends from the bottom portion to the top portion, and a lid engaging unit that is formed on the surrounding wall that is proximal to the top portion for interlocking with the sleeve engaging member of the cup lid. A cup assembly is also provided.

A lid for a container assembly is disclosed. The lid includes a central panel and a peripheral member. The lid further includes impact absorbing zones disposed within an annular lid space formed between the peripheral member and an intermediate wall that interconnects the peripheral member to the central panel. In some embodiments the impact absorbing zones are rigid impact absorbing zones that redirect and redistribute inwardly directed forces that are applied to the lid away from the central panel. In some embodiments, the impact absorbing zones include a plurality of protuberances that extend from the intermediate wall into the annular lid space that are arranged in an alternating pattern with indentation regions that extend inwardly from the intermediate wall. When the forces applied to the lid of the container meet or exceed a predetermined threshold deforming force, at least some of the protuberances may deform thereby further absorbing some of the impact force.

An expandable bowl has an open top and a plurality of configuration changing side members connecting the open top to a base member. The configuration changing side members are designed to allow a user to pull the base member to changing the side members from a collapsed configuration to an expanded configuration, thereby increasing the overall volume of the bowl. The expandable bowl may be useful for various products, such as pre-packaged salads, where the salads may be packaged and displayed in the collapsed configuration, thereby minimizing shelf space, and may be changed to the expanded configuration by a user to permit tossing of the salad without risking spillage of the contents of the bowl.

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 container includes a cup and a lid. The lid is adapted to mate with a brim included in the cup to close a top aperture opening into an interior liquid-storage region formed in the cup.

An apparatus is described. The apparatus is a closure or a lid. The closure includes a body portion, a tab, and a flange portion. The body portion comprises a first locking feature. The tab is coupled to the body portion of the closure via a hinge. The tab includes a plurality of edges and a second locking feature. The tab has a closed position and an open position, and when in the open position, the second locking feature is coupled to the first locking feature. When the tab is in a first condition, the plurality of edges of the tab pass through the flange portion from one position to another position without interference. When the tab is in a second condition, at least one of the plurality of edges of the tab overlaps the flange portion such that the flange portion interferes with the movement of the tab through the flange portion.

A novel sealed packaging container, comprising a container cover (1) and an open container body (2), wherein an edge of the container cover and a mouth edge of the container body are correspondingly provided with a first inner matching groove (11) and second outer matching groove (21), and a first outer matching groove (12) and second outer matching groove (22) having a double-folded structure; and the container is further provided with an anti-unfastening structure. An outer groove wall of the second outer matching groove extends downward from an upper end portion and is provided with two indentations (2231) that are easy to tear. The packaging container has strong anti-deformation abilities, the anti-unfastening structure is relatively stable, and the sealing performance is good.

A structure of a storage box includes a main body, a stacking assembly, and a forward opening. The main body has an upper and front-facing opening and a recess on the rear. The stacking assembly is attached to the main body, covers the upper and front-facing opening, and has an upper cover and a front cover, the upper cover fitted to the front cover with a snap and having a convex portion, the shape of the convex portion identical to the shape of the recess. The forward opening is a part of the upper and front-facing opening of the main body and is covered by the front cover. When two or more storage boxes are stacked, the convex portion of the second storage box embeds the recess of the first storage box, preventing the entire structure from tilting forward when the front cover of the storage box above is opened.

Systems and methods for nesting product packaging with strainer inserts are provided. Product packaging systems may include, for example, a product container with a lid and with a strainer insert disposed within the container. In some embodiments, the strainer inserts may be snapped into place in a channel, groove, or other retention feature of the parent container, thus permitting coupling without the use of adhesives or fasteners. The strainer inserts, when coupled within the parent containers, may define a drainage volume in which product fluids may drain to maintain the product separately from the fluids, e.g., to prolong shelf-life of the product.
