A container assembly includes a container body having a side wall encircling an axis, and a metal end for attachment to an upper edge of the side wall via heat-sealing. The outer peripheral region is shaped prior to application to the container body such that an annular channel is defined between an inner chuck wall and an outer chuck wall of the metal end. The metal end is pushed straight onto the side wall such that the upper edge of the side wall is received into the channel. The surfaces of the side wall and the opposing surfaces of the chuck walls have heat-sealable material thereon. The metal end is heated to melt and fuse the heat-sealable layers, thereby sealing the metal end onto the side wall. The metal end is shaped such that the free edge of the outer chuck wall is not exposed.

Container (1) comprising a substantially tubular metal container body (2) having a top opening defined by an outwardly curled edge, and a bottom opening. The container further comprises a peelable lid (9) bonded to an upper surface of said curled edge to close said top opening in an airtight manner, the outermost edge of the peelable lid not extending beyond an outermost extent of said curled edge, and a metal closure (4) comprising a generally planar centre panel (8) and a downwardly extending sidewall (7) depending from a peripheral region of the centre panel and terminating with an inwardly or outwardly directed fold (12), and a plurality of features (5) pressed into the sidewall at respective circumferentially spaced locations between said peripheral region and the fold, wherein the radial inward extent of the features is greater than that of the fold. The closure and the container body have relative dimensions to allow the features to pass over said curled edge during closure and to be retained beneath the curled edge to resist removal of the closure.

A container which includes a recessed portion and a complimentary top and base of generally undulating design which allow for a stack of such containers to be arranged where the neck of a lower container is placed within the recessed portion of an upper container and the base of the upper container contacts the top of the lower container. The container stack can then be extended to comprise multiple stacks which are positioned on a shipping pallet to provide for improved transportation efficiency of palletized containers.

The invention relates to a fuel container (1) of thermoplastic plastics material having an upper base (2) and a lower base (3) which are supported against each other by means of at least one column-like support element (4), wherein the support element (4) is connected in a positive-locking manner and/or materially engaging manner to a wall (6) of the upper base on the one hand and to a wall (6) of the lower base on the other hand in such a manner that it can absorb tensile forces and/or pressure forces, wherein the support element (4) is constructed in several pieces and the support element is divided longitudinally and comprises at least two segments (8) which complement each other in cross-section and which form a common support face at the end side.

A container arrangement for product comprises at least one first independent container part having a closable dispensing opening and a second independent container part having a closable dispensing opening. The second container part can be arranged detachably in a recess of the first container part in such a manner that the first container part and the second container part are connected to form the container arrangement, wherein the first dispensing opening and the second dispensing opening point in different directions. The first dispensing opening can be closed by a first closure part and the second dispensing opening can be closed by a second closure part. At least the second closure part overlaps a subregion of the second container part and a subregion of the first container part in a locking manner.

A vessel for cooking food on induction or conventional surfaces, including a shaped body defining a surface that delimits a volume for containing a food, and a metal element, preferably ferromagnetic, arranged on the bottom of the vessel, the bottom having a plurality of first surfaces which define a support surface and a plurality of second surfaces recessed with respect to the support surface, the first and the second surfaces being interconnected by third surfaces tilted with respect to the support surface or perpendicular thereto, the ferritic plate/disc element having a plurality of holes filled with material constituting the body for the mutual fixing of the body to the plate/disc; at least one part of the holes is provided on at least one part of the third surfaces tilted with respect to the support surface.

A modular component container system includes a plurality of case walls and a plurality of connectors. Each of the connectors includes at least two connector elements that mechanically connect to the case walls. The system also includes at least one latch connector having a latch connector element. The latch connector element mechanically connects to one of the case walls. A latch is movably oriented relative to the latch connector element. The latch releasably engages another of the case walls.

A chafing dish set may comprise a stand, a water pan capable of being restably coupled to the stand, wherein the water pan comprises a holding portion configured to receive and hold a liquid, and a food pan capable of being restably coupled to the water pan, wherein the food pan comprises an interior portion configured to receive and hold at least one of a food and a liquid. In some embodiments, the chafing dish set further comprises a lid capable of being restably coupled to the food pan, wherein the lid is configured to substantially cover the interior portion of the food pan.

The present invention relates to a metal-box (14) comprising a metal frame (15), at least one metal wall (13) and at least one metal bottom plate (12), wherein the metal frame (15) comprises a metal profile (1), wherein the metal profile (1) comprising an elongated element (2) and a cross-section (3), wherein the cross-section (3) comprising (i) a cavity (4), and the cavity (4) is enclosed by a first flange (5), a bottom part (6) and a first side (8) of a second flange (7), and (ii) a recess (9) enclosed by a second side (10) of the second flange (7) and the bottom part (6).

In one embodiment, a method of processing a plastic container having a longitudinal axis is disclosed. The method includes: blow-molding a plastic container having an upper portion including a finish, a sidewall, a lower portion including a base defining a standing surface, and a substantially transversely oriented pressure panel having an inner annular wall and a central push-up portion located in the base, wherein a base mold portion is displaced longitudinally with respect to first and second side mold portions to form the pressure panel set above the standing surface; introducing heated liquid contents into the plastic container with the pressure panel located in an outwardly-inclined position entirely between the standing surface and the upper portion; capping the plastic container; and, moving the pressure panel to an inwardly-inclined position entirely between the standing surface and the upper portion.
