Definitions

  • This invention relates to containers and particularly (but not exclusively) to containers for food use
  • An alternative form of this invention provides a container having a base, a side wail upstanding from the base and defining an opening, a lid releasably connectable to the container to close the opening, and an outwardly-projecting flange extending at least part-way around the lid, the container further comprising a device to identify the intended use of the container which device is in the form of a generally U-shaped clip connectable to the flange of the lid, the clip having a pair of arms with a throat therebetween and into which the flange is receivable, the flange defining a first abutment face and at least one arm of the clip having a second abutment face engageable with said first abutment face when the clip is connected to the flange so as to retain the clip to the flange during all normal use of the lid.
  • the present invention provides a relatively simple and cheap solution to the problem of identifying a container and/or its lid as being for a particular kind of foodstuff, in such a way that the identification remains with the container or lid for all normal use of the container or lid.
  • the clip could be made so that it is essentially irremovable, once attached to a container or lid, the resilience of the clip may permit removal of the clip and its replacement by another, provided that the removal of the clip is deliberately performed, for example by using a suitable tool to prise the clip from the flange.
  • the clip since the clip may be relatively small, the storage of a significant number of clips is not an issue.
  • the cost of each clip may be very small (for example, as compared to the cost of a lid) and thus a manufacturer may readily supply a number of differently-coloured clips, with each container.
  • the present invention is applicable to a wide range of designs of container, with or without lids, intended for containing almost any products, the invention does find particular utility in connection with the storage and display of foodstuffs.
  • the invention will hereinafter be described primarily with reference to the storage and display of foodstuffs though it is not to be regarded as limited to this use.
  • both the container and the lid have a respective flange, each of those flanges being provided with a device of this invention of substantially the same form, so that both the container and its lid carry a suitable designation for the intended foodstuff with which the container and lid are to be used.
  • the clip is retained to the flange during all normal use of the container and its lid, if provided.
  • the clip should remain on the flange for example during handling of the container, washing of the container, subsequent drying of the container and during loading or removing foodstuffs from the container.
  • the identifying device of the present invention may take a number of different forms and moreover the clip itself may be secured to the flange of the container or the lid, as appropriate, in a number of different ways. These give rise to greater or lesser security of attachment of the clip to the flange, ranging from almost irremovable without destroying the clip to removable relatively easily but only when intentionally removed, for example when the clip is to be changed, for another.
  • a particularly preferred form of identifying device has the first abutment face defined by a groove formed in the thickness of the flange and running parallel to an adjacent edge of the flange.
  • a bar is formed along the free edge of the flange, separated from the remainder of the flange or from the side wall of the container or lid by means of a relatively thin web, a face of the bar directed towards a wall of the container or lid defining the first abutment face.
  • the groove may be replaced by an aperture right through the flange, such that the bar is held to the flange solely at its ends.
  • the second abutment face may be defined by a barb formed on an inwardly directed surface of one of the arms of the clip. Greater security may be achieved by having two second abutment faces on the clip, defined respectively on both inwardly directed surfaces of the two arms of the clip.
  • the first abutment face is formed by a wall of a re-entrant slot extending into the flange from an edge thereof, into which slot is received a lug extending across the throat of the clip.
  • the clip may be snap-fitted on to the flange so that the two arms of the clip lie one to each side of the flange, with the clip being retained in position by the inter-engagement of the lug and the slot.
  • the security of attachment may be controlled by adjusting the relative dimensions and configurations of the slot and the lug.
  • a second re-entrant slot may be formed in the flange, spaced from the first re-entrant slot and the clip having correspondingly- spaced lugs in the throat of the clip, such that one lug engages in each slot, respectively.
  • the first abutment face of the flange may be defined by at least some of the walls of an aperture formed through the flange.
  • the aperture may take the form of a substantially round hole, in which case the second abutment face may comprise a stud on the clip, and which may be received in the aperture thereafter to resist withdrawal of the clip from the flange.
  • the ends of the clip may be located between a pair of shoulders spaced along the length of the flange, such that the clip is securely held in the required position. This may be enhanced by having the arms of the clip sufficiently long such that the free long edges of the clip engage the side walls of the container or lid, when the clip has fully been engaged with the flange.
  • This invention extends either to a container or to a lid, as described above, in combination with a multiplicity of individually coloured clips, whereby a user may select a suitable colour for the intended contents of the container and then identify the container or the lid with that clip.
  • the combination may have a multiplicity of pairs of individually coloured clips, whereby a user may select a suitable colour for the intended contents and then identify both the container and the lid with a pair of clips of the same colour.
  • FIG. 1 A is a diagrammatic perspective view of a part of a container lid and an identifying clip arranged in accordance with this invention

Abstract

L'invention concerne un conteneur et un couvercle (11), l'ensemble étant conçu pour renfermer des aliments. Une bride (13) s'étend au moins autour de l'un ou l'autre des deux éléments, à savoir le conteneur et le couvercle (11), mais de préférence des brides s'étendent respectivement (13) autour du conteneur et du couvercle. Un dispositif d'identification à codage couleur (10), ayant la forme d'une pince généralement en forme de U (17), peut être rattaché à la bride (13) du conteneur et du couvercle. La pince a une paire de bras (19) entre lesquels la bride (13) est reçue, au moins l'un des bras (19) définissant une face de butée (21) qui s'enclenche avec une butée correspondante (24) sur la bride (13): ainsi, lorsque la pince (17) est rattachée à la bride, elle y reste maintenue durant toute l'utilisation normale du conteneur et du couvercle.
