  • Publication number: 20060278636
    Abstract: A container includes an outer container and an inner container. The outer container consists of an outer container half body, a cap above the outer container half body separated by an opening, a connect rod fixed at an outer surface of the outer container half body and extending up to have its upper end fixed with the cap. The inner container consists of a lower inner container body placed in the outer container half body, and an upper inner annular container body positioned on the lower inner container body and fitting in the opening of the outer container. Thus the material for the outer container is reduced, and the upper inner annular container body can be colored variously to increase the value of the container, and to cut down the product cost.
