Publication number: 20230322447Abstract: A packaging assembly includes a container body defining an interior for housing a product and an opening leading to the interior. The assembly further includes a cap that moves with respect to the container body to move the assembly between a closed position in which the cap covers the opening, and an opened position in which the opening is exposed. A first seal (40) is defined between the container body and the cap. The first seal includes a protrusion (42) formed on one of the container body about the opening or the cap, and a groove (44) formed on the other of the container body about the opening or the cap. The protrusion is received by the groove when the assembly is in the closed position, such that contact is maintained in a sealing relationship around the opening between the groove and the protrusion.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 14, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: Jonathan Freedman, Donald Lee Huber, Michael Bucholtz, Randall Christopher LeCroy

Patent number: 11325771Abstract: A method for storing and preserving moisture sensitive products includes providing a moisture tight container (400) having an insert (300) made from a desiccant entrained polymer that is less than 3.25 g in mass, disposing a plurality of moisture sensitive products into the interior compartment when the container is in the open position, and moving the container into the closed position, thereby creating a moisture tight seal between the lid (420) and the container body (401). The container provides a shelf life to the moisture sensitive products of at least 12 months. The container, when in the closed position, has a moisture vapor transmission rate, at ambient conditions of 30° C. and 75% relative humidity (RH), of less than 500|ig/day.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2018Date of Patent: May 10, 2022Assignee: CSP Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Jonathan R.

Patent number: 10974887Abstract: A container includes a container body (201), optionally a lid (220), and an insert (100) secured, optionally fixedly secured within an interior of the container body. The insert has a base material, optionally a polymer, for providing structure to the insert, and a desiccant. The insert further has an opening leading to an interior compartment (102) configured for housing products and an outer surface (104) facing an inner surface of the container body. A void is provided between an exposed portion of the outer surface of the insert and a portion of the inner surface of the container body. At least one fluid pathway is provided between the void and the interior compartment of the insert.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2017Date of Patent: April 13, 2021Assignee: CSP TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Jonathan R.
