Patent number: 9073672Abstract: A storage container includes a jar and a cap removably connected to the jar. The jar has a cavity defined by a first base and a first wall extending upwardly from the first base. A first alignment indicator is disposed on an outer surface of the first wall. A cap is removably connectable to the jar. The cap has an upper portion connected to a lower portion by a connecting member. The lower portion has a second base and a second wall extending downwardly therefrom. A second alignment indicator is disposed on an outer surface of the second wall of the lower portion. The first and second alignment indicators are aligned to substantially prevent misalignment of the cap with respect to the jar when connecting the cap to the jar.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2012Date of Patent: July 7, 2015Assignee: HUBBELL INCORPORATEDInventors: Sarah Laperriere, Michael Rzasa, Armand Montminy, Rodd Ruland
