20090045157 | INTERLOCKING CONTAINER FOR CONDUCTION OF FLOWABLE MATERIALS - An apparatus for containing and conducting flowable materials, including liquids, pourable solids, or gases, the apparatus having mateable dovetails on four sides, and mateable screw engagements at the top and bottom. The screw engagements are operative to maintain a sealed connection between successive containers, and contain barriers which are adapted to be removed, whereby the material may flow from one interconnected container to the next, in the manner of piping. A lateral connection may additionally be formed by mating portions at the leading and trailing ends of vertically connected containers. | 02-19-2009 |
20090050595 | TETHERED TWO PIECE NESTABLE BOTTLE - A plastic bottle formed of two tethered parts having relatively large threaded open ends facilitating hand or machine washing of the unthreaded bottle parts thereby facilitating repeated reuse of the bottle. This two part plastic bottle reduces use of materials, such as petroleum used for producing plastic bottles, and reduces land fill. The bottle is suitable for refrigerator storage of various beverages as well as juices and smoothies. | 02-26-2009 |
20090071925 | TWO PIECE NESTABLE BOTTLE - A two section water bottle designed so that bottom sections stack within one another and top sections stack within one another. The stacked top sections are stackable in an inverted position on the top of the stacked bottom sections for further saving in storage space. The bottom section has a truncated frusto-concial side wall and the top section is dome shaped. The interior cavities of the top and bottom sections, and their respective bottom and top openings are sufficiently large to permit hand washing and effective machine washing. | 03-19-2009 |
20090134111 | PACKAGE SYSTEM - A package system is provided for combining an article and a container in an integrated package with the article in nested relationship within an elongated, vertically oriented recess formed in the wall of the container. The container includes one or more reliefs in communication with, or located proximate to, the recess to facilitate supporting the article in the recess with a covering material. | 05-28-2009 |
20090255893 | Interconnecting Bottles Utilized to Create Structures - The present invention consists of a water or soda bottle or vessel which is designed to allow for the bottle to interconnect with other bottles of similar design and standard dimensions to form useful second use products. A recess in the lower surface of the bottle receives the neck of another storage bottle. There are recesses perpendicular to the vertical axis of the bottle capable of receiving the mating side recess of another storage bottle. There are two such recesses on each storage bottle, one on each side of the bottle, parallel to each other. This allows for a bottle positioned on its side perpendicular to a vertically positioned bottle to be used to connect two vertically perpendicular storage bottles | 10-15-2009 |
20090266782 | STACKABLE RIBBED BOTTLE SYSTEM - A bottle having a storage chamber defined by spaced upper and lower surfaces and planar sidewalls; a conical ceiling in said upper surface having an opening at the top thereof; a conical convex recess in said lower surface for receiving the conical ceiling of the next adjacent bottle when stacking said bottles, and means for interlocking the sides and upper and lower surfaces of the bottles when stacked. The bottle may have ribs in the conical ceiling, conical recess and sidewalls for increasing top load resistance. A plurality of bottles may be assembled into a stable bottle stack with minimal packaging material. | 10-29-2009 |
20100025351 | Inter-locking stacking segment jar - This invention pertains to a Container that is held together by a threaded mid-section (FIG. | 02-04-2010 |

20110132863 | PLASTIC CONTAINER CONFIGURED FOR CASE-LESS SHIPPING - A plastic container configured for case-less shipping includes a base portion, a sidewall portion, and a neck portion. The base portion is configured to support the container on a surface and includes a substantially planar surface contact portion. The sidewall portion extends upwardly from the base portion and includes a shoulder, an integrally molded handle having a handle opening, and a horizontally-extending collapsible formation. The neck portion extends upwardly from the shoulder of the sidewall portion and includes a dispensing opening, a neck finish, and an uppermost vertical portion. In an embodiment, the handle includes a handle portion that extends vertically from the sidewall portion to an extent that is at or about the same vertical height as the uppermost vertical portion of the neck portion, and a portion of the sidewall portion is permitted to deform in response to a top load force. | 06-09-2011 |
20110226719 | STRUCTURE FOR DETACHABLE COUPLING OF CONTAINERS - A container structure is provided for detachable coupling of at least two containers. The detachable coupling structure of a first container includes a top portion with an upstanding perimeter having radial protrusions extending from a surface of the upstanding perimeter, and a container bottom portion having a complementary structure to engage the radial protrusions of the top portion of a second container for the purpose of detachably coupling two or more containers end to end. In one embodiment, two containers placed end to end with their respective structures aligned to be engaged are rotated in opposite directions to fully engage the protrusions of one container with the complementary structure of the other. A rim around the top portion of a container in a second embodiment has a larger diameter than the top portion. The rim may be pushed through a flexible opening into a recess in the bottom of another container. | 09-22-2011 |
20120241405 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MAKING A LIGHT WEIGHT CONTAINER - The invention is an improved lightweight container and method for manufacturing the same. The container incorporates a thinner wall structure in an essentially octagonal container having a bottom member, a plurality of sidewalls, a spout, an upwardly converging neck member coupling the sidewalls of the spout, a handle molded into the container and a radiused transiting section between the sidewalls and the spout which eliminates weakened corner sections and improves overall strength to weight ratios. Also disclosed is a method of forming the container to achieve the above-described result. | 09-27-2012 |
20120325766 | INTERCONNECTING CONTAINER SYSTEM - An interconnecting container system is described. Each container has a rounded rectangular parallelepiped body with four symmetrical sidewalls, a rounded square base and a rounded square top. An elongated sidewall slot is provided on each sidewalls, the slot has a surrounding lip thereby creating an internal edge recess. The sidewall slot has an open end and an adjoining closed end. The adjoining closed end is centrally disposed along a transversal axis of the rectangular sidewall. A similarly constructed elongated base slot is provided on the base. The adjoining closed end of the base slot is centrally disposed on the square base. A neck is centrally provided on the top and extends from the top, it has a surrounding rim and an opening thereon. The rim of the neck and the internal recess of the base slot and the sidewall slot are dimensioned and shaped for sliding and interconnecting engagement. | 12-27-2012 |
