Abstract: A free-standing blister pack made by heating molding plastic material, film or sheet, creating a container portion of a fixed space, storing a product such as cosmetic, fragrance, or homecare products in the space, and having a cover sheet attached to a flange of the container portion so as to create a sealing function. The blister packaging has a support structure to hold the blister upright after the removal of the perforation and score feature allowing the product to remain in a free-standing position after assembly.

Abstract: A disposable diffusing collar stay that allows a slow release of volatile molecules such as perfume, insect repellent, etc. without requiring application of such molecules directly on the skin or spraying of these volatile molecules onto the wearer's skin or clothing. The disposable diffusing collar stay can be composed of a water-soluble substrate wherein volatile molecules are absorbed into the substrate or trapped between substrate layers, or of a rigid body with volatile molecules applied in a cavity thereof. The disposable diffusing collar stay can have a release barrier layer or packaging that prevents the release of volatile molecules before use.

Abstract: A plastic container is provided. The plastic container has a base with a foundation extending upward from the base, front and rear panels, right and left side panels, a front pillar wall, and a rear pillar wall extending upward from the foundation. The front pillar and rear pillar walls are not co-planer with the front and rear panels, respectively. A transitional wall, located between the front panel and the front pillar wall and between the rear panel and the rear pillar wall, is attached to the front and rear panels and the front and rear pillar wall. The container also includes an integral handle, a top panel, a shoulder, and a finish having an opening.

Abstract: The application is directed to a leak-resistant closure for a plastic container having a generally planar central portion a peripheral portion, and a spring structure. The peripheral portion defines an annular recess with an inner wall having a secondary sealing formation for engaging a free edge of a container The outer wall of the peripheral portion has a primary sealing formation on an inner surface thereof and faces the annular recess, thereby defining the primary sealing formation. The spring structure biases the peripheral portion radially outward from the central portion, and the spring structure is positioned between the central portion and the peripheral portion.

Abstract: Blow air control systems control injecting a first gas at a first pressure into the interior of a parison and then injecting a second gas at a second pressure greater than the first pressure into the interior of the parison in blow-molding a container.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for transferring hollow blow molded articles from a vertically disposed wheel blow molding machine to a horizontally-disposed takeaway conveyor. Each mold on the wheel releases multiple blown articles at the six o'clock position on the wheel such that the articles fall freely from the wheel. An inclined end of a takeaway conveyor is located directly underneath the six o'clock position in order to receive the free falling blown articles and transport them to a horizontal transporting section of the takeaway conveyor. Flanges which extend upwardly from the conveying surface of the takeaway conveyor in combination with a powered endless positioning belt which extends a spaced distance along the inclined receiving end are utilized to confine the blown articles on the receiving end and uniformly position the blown articles on the takeaway conveyor.

Abstract: A blow-molded plastic container and reinforced lid are simultaneously produced in a blow mold. A lid is reinforced by having a portion of the lid formed by blow molding techniques and another portion of the lid formed by compression molding techniques. The container and lid combination, a method for making the combination and apparatus for making the combination are provided.

Abstract: A leak-resistant plastic container and closure are disclosed, where the container has an open end, an inner periphery, an outer periphery, and a container flange extending around the inner periphery at the open end. The closure has a generally planar and circular inner lid, a spring extending around an outer circumference of the inner lid, an arcuate flange receptacle extending around an outer circumference of the closure at a circumference outside the spring, where the flange receptacle has an inner surface and an outer surface, a secondary sealing bead, positioned on the inner surface of the flange receptacle, and a primary sealing bead, positioned on an outer surface of the flange receptacle and opposite the secondary sealing bead, where the spring exerts a sealing pressure against the container flange when the closure is placed on the open end of the container.
