Definitions

  • the invention relates to a nestable container with lid, both made of plastic, the lid of which comprises a central portion and, on the circumference thereof, a skirt with flange turned down over the edge of the container, in which assembly inward skirt portions may engage under outward container portions to hold the lid onto the container, the angle of inclination between the container wall and the vertical differs in the upper reaches from that in the lower reaches, and the wall of the container is provided all around with a container flange with a descending auxiliary wall to which optionally a bail can be fastened.
  • Containers of this type have been made millionfold for decades by injection moulding and have been used as disposable packing material for a variety of substances, such as foodstuffs and paints.
  • the flange of the container and the flange of the lid are preferably sloping down in order that any substances spilt onto the flange of the container during the filling may run down from the container flange and will consequently not make it impossible for the flanges of the container and the lid to be seated against each other.
  • the flange of the lid makes a larger angle with the horizontal than the flange of the container. In that case only the outer circumference of the flange of the lid contacts the flange of the container. This has the advantage that, during closing, positioning of the lid on the container is easier.
  • the height of the auxiliary wall is preferably more than 1.0 cm to provide enough room for the mouth of the recess on the auxiliary wall provided for the insertion of the finger tips and to avoid the climbing of containers placed side by side.
  • the lid can be provided with a central portion recessed into the container with a sealing fit against the inner wall of the container, which central portion is connected with the skirt by an annular lid portion.
  • the strongly widened top edge is then at least in part received in a channel in the lid shaped like an inverted U.
  • the recessed central portion may reach beyond the position of the container flange on the container.
  • the container has a bottom 3 and a wall 4 at a suitable nesting angle, which wall terminates via a sharp bend 5 and a widened lip 6 at the container mouth in a top edge 7. Between top edge 7 and the sharp bend 5 in the wall, a flange 8 slants down around the container, provided at its free end 9 with a descending auxiliary wall 10. Between the auxiliary wall 10 and the container wall 4 there are a great many, for instance 72, radial plates 11 indicated with dotted lines, one of which is situated just behind the plane of the drawing. The plates extend from the flange of the container to bottom 12 of the auxiliary wall and the bottom ends 13 of these plates jointly serve as nesting stop for a container underneath.
  • Lid 2 consists of a recessed central portion 14 comprising a lid panel 15 and an inner skirt 16, which central portion is connected, via an annular lid portion 17, with a skirt 18 inclined inwards. Skirt 18 is provided with a flared flange 19 the outside diameter of which does not exceed the outside diameter of auxiliary wall 10.
  • a recess 21 has been drawn at junction 20 between flange 8 of the container and the auxiliary wall 10, which recess has a mouth 22 on the outside of auxiliary wall 10 and a mouth 23 on top of flange 8 of the container.
  • mouth 23 has been indicated with a dotted line, because in this case it is completely covered by flange 19 of the lid.
  • the advantage of the design is that the mould need not comprise more than two parts capable of moving along a straight line in respect of each other for opening and closing the mould. Moreover, from the point of view of moulding technique the design also has the advantage that the projections for making the recesses can be taken away by a simple operation. The advantage is that, if so desired, a container-lid assembly can thus be produced the lid of which is indeed very hard to remove. This requirement is sometimes imposed by industrial users of packaging containers to prevent unauthorized people from gaining access to the (hazardous or very expensive) packed goods during the transport.
  • the container with lid according to the invention need not necessarily have a round horizontal cross section, but may also have other cross sections, such as an elliptic or square cross sections.
  • the wall thickness of the lid between the skirt and the flange of the lid may optionally be greater. This is shown diagramatically in fig. 1 by the dotted line 26.
