220674000 | Embossed | 9 |
20090084799 | Narrow neck glass container with internal embossments and method of manufacture - A narrow neck glass container includes a container body and a container neck finish. The container neck finish has an external closure attachment diameter of not more than 36 mm, and the container body has at least one internal embossment of predetermined geometry. The at least one internal embossment preferably comprises a plurality of internal embossments in a geometric pattern. | 04-02-2009 |
20100012669 | Panels for a Container Joint Including a Three Dimensional Pattern on a Portion Thereof and Methods of Forming Same - A panel member has a three dimensional pattern thereon, and the panel member is shaped using a die having at least one substantially smooth side. A portion of the panel member having the three dimensional pattern thereon is pressed adjacent the substantially smooth side of the die with a force sufficient to reshape the portion of the panel member so that the portion of the panel member has a major surface that is substantially void of the three dimensional pattern. The shaping and pressing are performed in a single pressing step. | 01-21-2010 |
20100059532 | Plastic Container Having Reinforced Gripping Structure - A plastic container includes a generally cylindrical main body portion having a longitudinal axis. At least one gripping recess is defined in the main body portion that has an oblong shape when viewed in front elevation and that is defined in part by a curved concave inner surface when viewed in side elevation. The gripping recess includes a plurality of horizontal indentations, each of which is sized to receive a finger of a consumer when the plastic container is being gripped by the consumer. | 03-11-2010 |
20100181328 | Protective sleeve - A container and a sleeve for a container are disclosed that employ unique air channels to divert heat from a hot beverage via hot air escaping upward and downward. The surface of the container and sleeve include raised images, depressed images, or a combination of both which are generally aligned in substantially vertical columns. The space between the columns defines the air channels. The air channels are substantially uninterrupted and facilitate the upward and downward escape of hot air. The images are applied, such as by embossing and/or debossing, which facilitates manufacturing material efficiency and therefore reduces material costs and environmental waste. A blank for a container or sleeve and a method of making a sleeve are also disclosed. | 07-22-2010 |
20120012594 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR STRUCTURING THE SURFACE OF A HARD MATERIAL COATED SOLID BODY BY MEANS OF A LASER - In the method for structuring at least one area of a solid body surface provided with a ta-C coating, a mask in the homogenous spot of the optical system is used in order to shape the beam in the mask projection technique and then a diaphragm in front of the imaging optics. A structure is applied by means of an excimer laser having pulse durations in the nanosecond range, a number of mask and diaphragm combinations being arranged in a exchanger device and the exchanger device being adapted to place both one of the masks and one of the diaphragms in the beam path of the laser independently of each other, the masks and diaphragms being arranged in holders while being displaceable linearly or rotatively and rotatable about themselves. This method allows the rational manufacture of very complex, extremely fraud-resistant authentication features and/or of esthetically attractive, optical diffraction effective colored patterns. | 01-19-2012 |
20120111877 | Cardboard container - The present invention relates to a container, particularly a cup, with a base and a first sidewall, whereas the first-sidewall comprises at least a first, at least partially circumferential shaping directed inwardly and/or outwardly. | 05-10-2012 |
20130032604 | Container Identification System - A customizable container is disclosed for personalizing and identifying bottles and cans. The customizable container comprises several raised portions associated with indicia such as letters, numbers, symbols, characters, phrases, etc. The raised portions can be depressed, creating a unique pattern or association with the indicia in order to distinguish the container from similar containers. The raised portions are arranged in a manner to encourage their use, such as placing them where the consumer will grasp the container. | 02-07-2013 |
20130056482 | CONTAINER WITH PRINTED SURFACE CONTOUR AND PRINTING METHOD - A printed container for packing, in particular for packing products for sales purposes, in particular beverages, and a corresponding printing method. The container includes at least one lateral wall section in which a relief-like surface contour is embodied for decoration and/or marking purposes. By the relief-like surface contour being selectively printed, in cooperation of the relief contour with the imprint, an optical impression of the container can be improved, and/or a synergetic effect can be achieved with the haptics of the surface contour. | 03-07-2013 |
20130240540 | ASYMMETRIC PRESSURIZED PLASTIC CONTAINER - An asymmetric pressurized plastic container includes a bottom, a shoulder portion and a finish portion that is unitary with an upper end of the shoulder portion. A generally cylindrical bumper portion having a first longitudinal axis is provided at a lower end of the shoulder portion. A generally cylindrical main body portion having a second longitudinal axis is positioned beneath the bumper portion and has at least a first sidewall feature defined therein. The first and second longitudinal axes are offset so as to compensate for any lateral deflection of the container that may occur as a result of pressurization acting upon the first sidewall feature. In addition, the main body portion may include a second sidewall feature to provide additional compensation against lateral deflection of the container causes a result of pressurization acting upon the first sidewall feature. | 09-19-2013 |
