Cap and container assemblies

A cap and container assembly includes a container having a base and a side wall extending upward from the base. The base and the side wall define an interior, and the side wall defines an opening leading to the interior. A cap moves with respect to the container between an opened position in which the opening is exposed, and a closed position in which the cap covers the opening. A tab projects outward from the cap and has a bottom surface. A spacer projects from the container side wall at a location beneath the tab when the assembly is in the closed position. The spacer bends inward towards the container in response to application of a sufficient force, to move from a locked position that blocks the bottom surface of the tab, to an unlocked position to expose at least a portion of the bottom surface of the tab.

FOLDED OPENING-RESISTANT CONTAINER

A folded opening-resistant container includes a cover body, which has an outside that is provided with a grip part, which is connected, in an inside thereof, through a perforation line to a first engaging member; and a box body, which includes a circumferentially surrounding wall and a bottom plate arranged at a bottom inside the wall. A foldable member extends from a top end of the wall. The foldable member has an end that is provided with a second engaging member. The cover body and the box body are combinable and interlockable in a detachable manner. The foldable member is curvable or flexible to allow the second engaging member to engage and combine with the first engaging member, such that when the cover body and the box body are separated, the perforation line is broken and the first engaging member and the cover body are separated from each other.

LIDDED CONTAINER

In a container having a lid member coupled to a container body by a hinge, the lid member includes a top surface, an inner ring formed on the top surface, and a projected part is formed on the top surface concentrically with the inner ring and which has an outer peripheral surface provided with an outer peripheral surface projection along the circumferential direction. The container body has a sidewall with a first inner peripheral surface having an inner peripheral surface projection formed along the circumferential direction, and a second inner peripheral surface having an inner diameter different from that of the first inner peripheral surface. When the lid member is closed, the inner ring seals the container body by being fitted to the second inner peripheral surface. The outer peripheral surface projection contacts and slides over the inner peripheral surface projection to lock the lid member the container body.

VIAL WITH NON-ROUND SEAL
20180009577 · 2018-01-11 ·

A moisture-tight, re-sealable container is disclosed having a lid and body. The lid and body have a non-round seal that is substantially moisture tight when the lid is seated on the body, admitting less than 1000 micrograms per day of water to a package. A reinforcement stiffens or reinforces at least a portion of the seal against inward deflection along an axis defined by the minor diameter when the lid is seated on the body. Optionally the reinforcement is at least one spline subdividing the reservoir. A method of making dispensers for objects of varying length to customize particular dispensers to dispense such objects of a particular length is also disclosed.

Medical device package with twist-off cap

A package for a medical device such as an intermittent catheter has a case with open and closed ends. A hinge connects a cap to the case to permit movement of the cap between open and closed positions. A seal connected to one of the cap and case is engageable with the other to maintain a sterile environment inside the package. The seal can be repeatedly made and broken whenever the user closes or opens the cap. The case includes a pair of slots at the open end. A pair of latches is formed in the cap. The latches fit into the slots to prevent lateral forces from distorting the cap when the cap is closed. A first use indication label spans a depression in the outer contour of a closed cap and case, assuring visual confirmation of breach of the label upon first opening of the cap.

LIDDED CONTAINER
20180009579 · 2018-01-11 · ·

In a container having a lid member coupled to a container body by a hinge, the lid member has a top panel, and an inner ring formed on the top panel, the inner ring being fitted to an inner peripheral surface of a sidewall of the container body in a closed state to seal the container body. The inner ring has an outer peripheral surface on which an outer peripheral surface projection is formed along a circumferential direction, and the container body has an inner peripheral surface on which an inner peripheral surface projection is formed along the circumferential direction, in the vicinity of an end portion of the sidewall. When closing the lid member, the outer peripheral surface projection contacts and slides over the inner peripheral surface projection to cause the lid member to be locked to the container body, with the inner ring sealing the container body.

CONTAINER ASSEMBLIES INCLUDING POP-TOP CAPS
20230234757 · 2023-07-27 · ·

A pop-top container assembly is provided. The assembly includes a pop-top cap and a container. The pop-top cap includes a base portion defining an opening having an inner surface. The pop-top cap further includes a cap portion pivotably coupled to the base portion and pivotable between an open position and a closed position. The container has an outer surface and defines an internal cavity with the outer surface depressible between a relaxed position and a depressed position. The base portion includes a lip extending from the inner surface and the cap portion includes a flange extending from the cap portion. The flange and the lip engage each other when the cap portion is in the closed position to secure the cap portion to the base portion. To this end, the pop-top cap and the container cooperate to disengage the flange and the lip from each other when the outer surface is depressed from the relaxed position to the depressed position.

Storage box

The present disclosure relates to storage boxes commonly used to organize and store items such as school-related supplies that may be carried by a student. The storage boxes generally include a lid and a base. The base optionally includes a divider which provides for two or more storage portions within an interior of the base, while also acting as a functional grip on the outside of the box.

Packaging is provided having a molded base portion with a plurality of cells or compartments each sized and shaped to retain one object. Each of the plurality of cells or compartments have a bottom surface and upstanding peripheral walls with a top edge. The top edge of the peripheral walls define an opening to allow an object to be placed in the cell or compartment. To improve the ease with which a user can remove objects from the base portion, a centrally disposed aperture is provided in the bottom surface of each of the plurality of cells or compartments. The centrally disposed aperture is sized and shaped to permit a user to insert a finger from under the base portion through the centrally aperture in order to raise the object in the cell or compartment to more easily facilitate removal of the object with the user's other hand.
