A container, in particular for free-flowing substances, comprising a blank (16) made of sheet-like, flexible material in particular cardboard, which can be folded at least to form part of the container, a first wall (1) and a second, adjacent wall (4) of the container, the walls (1, 4) being angled in relation to one another and being connected integrally to one another in the region of a common edge (5), it being the case that a weakening line (7) runs over each of the walls (1, 4) and surround...

A container has side walls of substantially equal height and top and bottom lids. Each lid has a central panel and side panels attached to the central panel by score lines. The lids have an annular crushed area in the central panel which is conterminous with the score lines. The container side walls fit into the annular crushed area. The bottom lid side panels are fastened to the container side walls.

A container is disclosed. The container includes a base panel, end wall panels upstanding from opposed ends of the base panel, side wall panels upstanding from opposed sides of the base panel, flaps attached to the end wall panels and extending along the side edges of the base panel inwardly of said side wall panels, and a cover extending over the open top of the container and having its edges secured between said side wall panels and said flaps.

A container that can hold a liquid, such as paint, or a granulated material includes a side wall portion, a bottom portion formed at one end of the side wall portion, and a well region formed in the bottom portion. The bottom portion includes an inclined surface. Alternatively, the bottom portion can be shaped to be frustoconical, hemispherical or an inverted pyramid.

The present invention is directed to a device for receiving and holding a plurality of unit doses of a detergent composition and/or additive and for individually dispensing said unit doses into an automatic dishwashing machine over a plurality of washing cycles, wherein the device comprises (i) a housing adapted to receive said plurality of unit doses each separately contained in a package or compartment thereof, (ii) means for opening said package or compartment or for at least partly ejecting ...

A wall structure for a container includes at least one band member which extends at least partially across the length of the wall structure proximate an upper surface of the wall structure and oriented substantially parallel thereto. The band member has a wave-like cross-section with a plurality of first peaks, adjacent and opposing second peaks, and inclined members extending between the plurality of first and second peaks. The plurality of first peaks of the wave defines a first surface of the...

A container adapted for storing and transporting an item having a shape includes a flexible bottom panel which has an upper surface upon which the item is supported, and a lower surface having a plurality of parallel, spaced apart ribs with a relatively thin-walled section between each adjacent pair of ribs. The flexible bottom panel is adapted to conform to the shape of the item resting thereon.

A container adapted to receive an inner receptacle is provided. The container includes a base for supporting a lower portion of the inner receptacle, where the base includes a peripheral frame portion defining at least one relatively large opening therebetween. A first pair of opposed walls extends upwardly from the peripheral frame portion, and a second pair of opposed walls extends upwardly from the peripheral frame portion and is attached to the first pair of opposed walls. As assembled, the ...

The present invention relates to containers, and more specifically, to plastic containers. The containers described herein may be applied to any use, but they are particularly useful for storing paint.

A paint container includes a top, a bottom, and at least one side wall. A handle is pivotally attached to the body proximate the top. A finger recess is disposed in the bottom and an access recess is positioned between the bottom and at least one side wall. A user may insert one or more fingers through the access recess and into the finger recess to grasp the body when the body is resting on a flat surface.
