Patent number: 11427372Abstract: Polymeric container includes a base defining a support surface and a sidewall extending upwardly from the base. The sidewall has at least a first contact portion extending about a perimeter of the sidewall. The sidewall includes a raised surface pattern at a select area proximate the first contact portion. The raised surface pattern includes a plurality of protrusions extending outwardly from the sidewall and having an outer surface. Each protrusion is spaced apart from adjacent protrusions within the selected area, and a shortest distance between each protrusion and any of the adjacent protrusions is less than a greatest surface dimension of the outer surface of each protrusion.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: Graham Packaging Company, L.P.Inventors: Alicia Evans, Tapan Y. Patel, Hassan Mourad, Jesus Gustavo Herrera Perez, Jose Manuel Diaz

Patent number: 11148847Abstract: A metal bottle assembly adapted for use on a plastic bottling includes a metal bottle with an outsert assembled on the neck portion of the bottle. The outsert may be constructed from plastic material and may be fixed to the bottle using an interference fit. The outsert enables the bottle to be placed on a plastic bottling line with minimal or no modifications to the bottling line. The outsert also ensures that the metal bottle is not damaged by handling on the plastic bottling line. In some embodiments, the outsert is designed to elastically deform as it is pressed on the neck of a pre-formed metal bottle and therefore create the interference fit between the outsert and the bottle. In some embodiments the outsert is retained on the neck of the bottle through the interference fit alone.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2019Date of Patent: October 19, 2021Assignee: PepsiCo, Inc.Inventors: Girolama Bueti, Gary Joseph Albaum, Bruno Telesca, Hassan Mourad, Harold James Marshall
