A container has means hingedly supporting a reversible band which surrounds the container near the mouth of the container. The hinged support for the band is engaged to that side edge of the band which is closest to the mouth of the container. The opposite side edge of the band has hook means associated therewith for interfitting rib means projecting outwardly from the skirt of a closure. The interfit between the container band and the closure rib is accomplished by swinging the band upwardly about its hinged edge connection to the container, whereupon the band is reversed in the sense that the inside face of the band initially closest to the container is turned outwardly from the container as the initially outside face of the band is turned inwardly toward the container, such reversal occurring as the band swings upwardly about its hinged connection to the container. Such reversal causes the initially outside face of the band to be enveloped by the initially inside face of the band with the consequence that the initially inside face of the band is placed under a substantial tensile stress which causes the band to collapse inwardly toward the container with the result that the hook portion of the band is drawn into firm interfitting engagement with the rib portion of the closure. The closure includes a severable panel secured initially to the closure skirt by a rupturable, tamper-indicating web and pry means associated with the severable panel for rupturing said web so as to allow removal of the panel and consequent access to the container contents.

A container includes a molded container blank comprising a tubular wall and an integrally formed closure panel closing one end of the tubular wall. The closure panel may be torn away from the tubular wall and has an integrally formed scoop wall projecting into the region surrounded by the tubular wall. The panel has an endless scoreline surrounding the scoop wall and merging with another scoreline, both scorelines being rupturable to allow removal from the closure panel of a scoop including the scoop wall and a scoop handle and scoop base derived from the closure panel. The panel and its container to the tubular wall so formed that the scoop may be removed from other portions of the closure panel when the panel is removed from the tubular wall to open the container.

A molded capsule or the like serving as a secondary closure for a wine bottle or the like which may already be closed by a cork or the like is securely applied to the neck of the bottle by advancing the open end of the capsule against the already closed neck of the bottle, which may be oversized with respect to the capsule diameter, to form an initial air seal between the capsule and the bottle. Air is then injected into the capsule so as to provide an air column within the capsule which supports the capsule walls against collapse and lubricates the advance of the capsule longitudinally onto the neck of the bottle. Apparatus for accomplishing this assembly method includes means for injecting air into the capsule when initially placed against the neck of the bottle while simultaneously sealing the capsule against an excessive escape of injected air from the capsule, pressure relief means being provided to controllably release air from the capsule as the volume in which the aforementioned air column can reside is reduced by advancement of the capsule onto the neck of the bottle.

A closure or plastic lid having a substantially circular configuration as well as an outer annular periphery is provided with concentrically located projection ribs on one side thereof as well as an outer skirt portion and an inner skirt portion extending axially in an opposite direction from a periphery of the plastic lid or closure in a location radially outwardly of the rib projections which assure a broad area of contact sealing engagement with respect to an arcuately curved bead portion of a container wall contacted both in an axial region and a radially outer region as to a foil membrane or liner having at least one, preferably three radially outwardly projecting tabs which are folded into a slot or recess concentrically between the outer skirt portion and inner skirt portion of the cover or lid.

An improved injection mold method includes interposing a gate between a mold chamber or cavity and a runner passageway. The cross sectional opening of the gate is non-circular in shape and may comprise a plurality of foliations. The non-circular shape of gate opening enables the provision of sufficient area to insure adequate filling and compacting of molding material in a mold chamber within a reasonable time interval and also avoids difficult problems such as drooling, stringing, and/or freeze-off or blocking of material-supply passageways.
