Abstract: This invention relates to a base for a plastic bottle, especially for beverages under pressure, comprising an annular heel (6) which preferably is integral with the side wall (2) of the bottle, and a concave section (7) that is surrounded by, and integral with, the heel (6), wherein the concave section (7) comprises reinforcing elements arranged in a star pattern and increasing its rigidity, wherein the reinforcing elements are formed by convex areas (9) of the concave section (7) and the concave section (7) including the convex area (9) have essentially the same wall thickness.

Abstract: A bottle (1) having a bottle main body (2) made from light metal and a neck (3) provided with an external thread (4), which bottle (1) comprises a capsule-type screw cap (5) with a cap (6) closing an opening of the bottle (1) and a skirt (7) adjoining the cap (6) and provided with a thread (8) co-operating with the external thread (4) of the neck (3), the edge (9) of the neck (3) of the bottle (1) being formed by an overturned portion (10) of the neck (3) forming a bead extending circumferentially around an opening of the bottle (1), and a free end of the over-turned portion (10) points in the direction of an external or internal face of the bottle (1), and the overturned portion (10) is of a curved design in the region of an apex (11) of the edge (9) facing the cap, and the edge (9) of the bottle (1) has an essentially O-shaped cross-section.

Abstract: A container (1), such as a drink container, comprises a body (2) for accommodating fluids, a bottom (10), a side wall (12), a body opening (28), and a first connecting element (32). A fluid-tight closing unit (30) is connectable to the first connecting element (32) in a fluid-tight manner and has a region where a fluid passage to the body can be provided. A mouthpiece module (24) comprises a mouthpiece (26), a fluid line (34), and a unit (36) for creating a fluid passage to the body in the region. By way of a guiding unit, the fluid line (34) and the unit (36) can be transferred from a distance from the region to a position in which a fluid passage through the closing unit (30) and, by way of the fluid line (34), a connection between the body (2) and the mouthpiece (26), is created.

Abstract: A beverage container comprises a body for receiving fluids, having a base, a first side wall adjoining the base, and an opening section adjoining the first side wall and having a discharge opening. The container further comprises a cover module that is placed on or is present on the body and has a second side wall and a cover flap adjacent thereto. When the cover module is present on the body, the first and the second side walls form an outline shape of the container, at least in sections, the diameter of which has at least one maximum. At least one film, at least in regions, rests on the first and second side walls, and extends on one side and an opposite side at the body at the at least one diameter maximum. The film may be a shrink film that is shrunk on the first and second side walls.

Abstract: A reclosable container lid includes a lid surface having an upper side, a lower side, a circumferential edge, and a zone for a dispensing aperture delimited by a circumferential weakening profile. A lever tab is pivotably fastened to the lid surface via a fastener for at least partly opening the dispensing aperture. The lever tab has first and second end portions, wherein the first end portion, in the opening position, at least partly overlaps with a section of the zone for the dispensing aperture. The lever tab also has a closure module comprising a closure collar that rests against the upper side of the lid surface and which, in the closure position, extends along the dispensing aperture in a sealing manner. The closure module also includes a reclosable aperture closure framed by the closure collar. A method of manufacturing reclosable containers using the container lids is also disclosed herein.
