Definitions

  • a plastic reusable container and cover assembly which may be opened and reclosed with the original cover intact.
  • An object of the invention is to provide such an assembly wherein complete removal of the cover will effect separation of a peripheral portion of the container from the body portion thereof, thus preventing reclosure after such intentional tampering without leaving a tell-tale omission of a portion of the container when viewed with others on display.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide an assembly of the above type wherein the separable portion of the container is joined to the body portion by a line of weakness normally hidden from view.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide such an assembly with the outer cover flange projecting into an upwardly facing groove formation on the separable portion of the container tending to deter tampering by finger lifting of the cover from the container and resulting in at least partial separation of the portion of the separable body portion if a prying tool is inserted into the groove formation in an effort to pry the cover from the container.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the container and cover assembly
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged sectional view taken along line 2-2 of FIG. 1 showinga line of weakness for separation of a peripheral portion of the container from the body portion thereof;
  • FIG. 3 is a similar sectional view taken along line 33 of FIG. 1 illustrating permissive discontinuity of the lines of weakness shown in FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 4 is a sectional view similar to FIG. 2 but showing the cover partially removed from the container and the resultant separation of a peripheral portion of the container from the body portion along the line of weakness;
  • FIG. 5 is a sectional view similar to FIG. 2 but showing a modified line of weakness
  • FIG. 6 is a sectional view similar to FIG. 2 but showing a further modified line of weakness.
  • the container 10 may take various shapes but is illustrated as of somewhat bulbous cylindrical shape and is preferably formed of thin wall plastic material, such as polystyrene.
  • the container is closed by a cover or lid 12 of similar plastic material.
  • the cover includes a vertical wall portion 14 upstanding from the central closing portion thereof and merging with a horizontal outwardly extending top wall portion 16.
  • This wall portion 16 terminates in a depending peripheral flange 18, thus providing an inverted generally U-shaped peripheral portion.
  • the invention contemplates that the lid 12 may have other cross sectional configurations but must include an inner wall 14, an upper wall 16 and a depending skirt 18.
  • the container body includes an outwardly and upwardly inclined peripheral wall 20 merging with an upstanding vertical wall portion 22 within which the telescoped cover wall portion 14 may have a snug friction fit or an interfltting rib and groove or shoulder arrangement between these cover and body walls for a snap fit, or other conventional arrangements therebetween. If desired known venting means may also be provided between the cover and container body.
  • the wall portion 22 merges with a horizontal outward flange or rim portion 24 which underlies the top wall 16 of the cover when applied to the container.
  • the outer periphery of the wall or flange 24 joins with an outwardly and'downwardly inclined wall 26a in turn merging with a vertical portion 26b which combine with the wall portions 24 and 22 to provide an inverted U-shape within the U- shaped portion of the cover.
  • a vertical portion 26b which combine with the wall portions 24 and 22 to provide an inverted U-shape within the U- shaped portion of the cover.
  • an outward radial wall 28 merging with an upstanding peripheral flange 30 which define, with the wall portion 26b, an upwardly facing groove or trough formation 32 into which the lower portion of the cover flange 18 extends.
  • This groove may be upwardly open, as illustrated, or the flange 30 may be turned inwardly or otherwise positioned closer to the outer surface of the cover flange 18 when it is desired to prevent any accumulation of foreign matter therein.
  • the horizontal rim portion 24 of the cover is weakened by a groove, as V-shaped, or cut-out 34 to provide a line of weakness at the apex thereof so that the outer portion thereof, including the groove formation 32, will be severed from the container upon removal of the cover as will be described.
  • This weakening can be accomplished in various ways.
  • the groove 34 may be circumferentially continuous around the underside of the rim or it may be discontinuous for a short distance, as at 36 in FIG. 3, and such discontinuity may be at spaced intervals to leave a series of relatively weakened or even slit sections alternating with nonweakened portions.
  • the weakening grooves themselves may be variously formed as by the groove 38 in the upper face of the rim as shown in FIG. 5, or by opposed grooves 40, 40a in opposite faces of the rim as shown in FIG. 6.
  • the container groove forming walls are lifted in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 4 and this will, in turn, lift the cover 12 along with the remnant peripheral grooved portion of the container which will be separated from the remaining portion of the rim 24 along the line of weakness provided at the apex of the groove 34, or the grooves 38, 40 and 40a, as the case may be.
  • the remnant container rim portion that is, the remaining wall portions 26a, 26b, 28, 30, can be discarded, and the original cover 12, without alteration, can be used as a reclosure for the container body.
  • a plastic container assembly comprising a body portion having an open end defined by a generally vertical inner wall and an outer depending generally vertical wall joined to the inner wall by a top wall portion, and with the lower portion of the depending outer wall terminating in an upwardly facing trough formation, and a cover closing the open end of the body portion and having radially spaced inner and outer walls interconnected by atop cover flange, said inner walls of said container and said cover being formed to cooperate in a manually releasable interlocking fit, said outer depending wall of the cover projecting into the upwardly facing trough formation, said outer depending wall of the cover and the outer upwardly extending segment of said upwardly facing trough formation being relatively formed to substantially prevent access by a persons finger to the lower edge of said outer depending wall of the cover, and means for weakening said top wall portion of the body portion around the periphery thereof for complete severance therealong upon authorized removal of the cover and trough formation from the body portion and discarding of the trough formation permitting the original cover to
  • top wall portion of the body portion is of sufficient radial extent to radially space the inner and outer walls of the body portion and provide an inverted U-shaped configuration fitting within the inverted U- shaped configuration provided by the inner and outer walls and the cover flange.
