Abstract: A tamper-evident closure for the attachment to a container body includes a cap portion which includes a top wall and a peripheral wall extending downwardly from the top wall, an attachment portion, a tamper-proof element arranged and integrally formed between the cap portion and the attachment portion, and a hinge portion including at least one wall section which is integrally formed with the peripheral wall and the attachment portion and connects the cap portion and the attachment portion. The at least one wall section of the hinge portion is formed between at least two cut outs, does not extend beyond an envelope defined by an outer surface of the peripheral wall and an outer surface of the attachment portion and has a substantially constant wall thickness which is essentially the same as the wall thickness of the peripheral wall.

Abstract: A canister including a canister body containing a bottom wall and at least one sidewall with inner and outer sidewall surfaces and an upper rim, and a closing element containing a top wall with an outer surface and an inner surface, and a fixing portion surrounding the top wall. The top wall or the bottom wall or at least one sidewall include a membrane region with a predetermined permeability. The fixing portion includes an elevated or recessed snap portion around its outer periphery shaped to correspond to the inner sidewall surface of the sidewall of the cylindrical canister body and form a snap connection with the canister body. The closing element is fixed to the canister body such that the outer surface of the top wall does not extend beyond the upper rim of the sidewall of the canister body.

Abstract: A dispensing device for holding and dispensing strip-like objects, like test strips for analyzing a sample of bodily fluid, wherein the dispensing device holds a stack of strips. The dispensing device includes a container portion for holding the stack of strips and a dispenser portion for dispensing strips from the dispensing device, one at a time. The dispenser portion includes a movable element for applying a rotation motion to a strip to be dispensed from a first orientation, in which the strip is enclosed in the dispensing device, to a second orientation, in which the strip is at least partially exposed.

Abstract: A container for loosely stored products including a) a container body containing a peripheral body wall having an inner peripheral body groove; b) a cover containing a cover skirt having an outwardly facing sealing portion with an apex that seals against the inner peripheral body groove when the cover is in a closed condition thereby forming a seal of a sealing line type; and c) a hinge connecting the container body and the cover. The apex of the cover skirt and the inner peripheral body groove provide the only seal between the cover and the container body and preferably the only locking element that holds the cover in the closed condition on the container body.

Abstract: An active element for trapping and/or releasing a gaseous or liquid substance is provided including a solid body, which is enveloped by an outer boundary surface (S), and contains an active material adapted to trap and/or release a gaseous or liquid substance, wherein the outer boundary surface S has an overall roundish, preferably round shape. The active element is manufactured by injection moulding and can be utilized within a container.

Abstract: A container for loosely stored products comprises a) a container body comprising a peripheral body wall having an inner peripheral body groove; b) a cover comprising a cover skirt having an outwardly facing sealing portion with an apex that seals against the inner peripheral body groove when the cover is in a closed condition thereby forming a seal of a sealing line type; and c) a hinge connecting the container body and the cover. The apex of the cover skirt and the inner peripheral body groove provide the only seal between the cover and the container body and the only locking element that holds the cover in the closed condition on the container body.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cap for a container and a container comprising such cap. This container typically accommodates loosely stored, solid products, such as strips, pills, tablets or the like. The cap includes a lid body with a top part and a peripheral wall, wherein the lid body includes a sealing skirt and an inner peripheral wall, which extend from the top part, and form a peripheral groove in between. At least one projection portion for partially covering the peripheral groove is integrally formed with the sealing skirt and the inner peripheral wall.
