  • Publication number: 20100147851
    Abstract: The invention relates to a lid for a container, and a container with a corresponding lid, where the radially outer edge area (8) of the lid (2) displays an opening area (9), through which a tool serving as a lever can extend through the lid edge, and a rim (10) of the lid (2) is provided below the opening area (9), under which the free end of the levering tool can act on the lid (2) and the lid (2) can be at least partially lifted off the container (1) by pivoting the tool against the rim (10) of the lid (2), and the edge of the opening area (9) displays at least one part (11) that can be torn off the lid (2), or broken, when the tool is inserted into the opening area (9) or the lid (2) is levered open. As a result, a lid, or a container with lid, is created that displays an indicator clearly showing whether or not the lid has previously been lifted or detached from the container.

  • Patent number: 7731049
    Abstract: The invention relates to a container (1), especially a bucket or similar, comprising an opening, which is orientated upwards and which can be closed by a cover (3), and a peripheral container edge (2), which is drawn outwards in a downward direction on the container wall (5), where the cover (3) is detachably connected thereto and whereon at least one tongue-like element (8) is connected in such a way that at least one part of the cover (3) is raised due to a pivoting movement away from a starting position on the container wall (5). According to the invention, the tongue-like element (8) engages with the container edge (2) from behind with part of said tongue-like element which can be guided outwards by the pivoting movement to a position in front of the container wall (2) and the part of said tongue-like element is prevented from being guided behind the container edge (2) when the tongue-like element (8) pivots back in the direction of the initial position.

  • Publication number: 20090308883
    Abstract: A container with lid, in particular a bucket with lid, has a container wall, a container bottom and a container opening, which is defined by an upper edge of the container, and structure in the upper part of the container for fixing the lid or a peripheral, inwardly protruding frame, to which the lid can be detachably locked. The container wall has on its upper part an outwardly protruding shoulder, such that containers can be stacked one into the other.

  • Publication number: 20080190803
    Abstract: On a container (1) with lid (6), particularly a paint pot, where the container (1) displays a container wall (2), a container bottom (3) and a container opening (4) and, in the edge area of the container opening (4), a continuous frame (5), projecting radially inwards relative to the container wall (2), it is envisaged that, for the purpose of simple and inexpensive manufacture, the frame (5) can be snapped onto the edge area of the container opening (4).

  • Publication number: 20080190804
    Abstract: The invention is related to a container (1) with a container wall (2), a container bottom (3), and a container opening (4), where the container wall (2) extends essentially conically from the bottom to the opening and the inner side of the container wall (2) displays axially oriented stacking ribs (5), distributed around the circumference. According to the invention the container is designed in that the radially outer area of the outer side of the container bottom (3) is provided with at least one recess (10) which, when stacking multiple containers (1) in each other, can be engaged by at least one stacking rib of a container (1) located beneath it, thereby fixing the containers (1) in place in non-rotating fashion relative to each other. Hereby, the stability of the arrangement of stacked containers is improved.

  • Patent number: 6840398
    Abstract: Disclosed is a plastic receptacle having a lid (1). The receptacle includes an upper edge and the lid (1) includes an area (2) encompassing the upper edge. The area (2) includes a side (3) which radially faces inwards. The lid also includes a middle area (4) surrounded by the first area (2) and an outer area (5) extending downwards. Furthermore, the lid (1) is provided with box-shaped projections (6) on its side (3) which radially faces inwards. The aim of the invention is to achieve better centering and better stability of the stacked-up receptacles having lids (1) by maintaining a low stack height of the lids (1). To this end, the side (3) of the lid (1) which faces radially inwards has a surrounding terracing (7) which has approximately the same width as the projections (6) and the projections (6) are arranged on the terracing (7) and extend to the upper edge of the encompassing area (2) of the lid (1).
