Abstract

A re-usable container for fluid such as milk comprises a hollow generally rectangular body with a screw threaded outlet, a hollow handle having a chamber isolated from the interior of the container, the handle having a depression for gripping by a thumb, and a circular lid to be screwed onto the outlet, the lid having five domed shapes around a central depression to facilitate gripping.

Description

2352223 Reference SR/REMILKI RE-USABLE MILK CONTAWER A container for in
two pieces, eg. a shaped rectangular body to be filled with fluid, and a separate circular lid which is screwed on. The body has screw threads around the lip and an ergonomic handle with a depression at the front for the thumb to grip when pouring.
The handle is hollow, but is separate from the main body of the can, so that the container is easy to clean.
The lid has five domed peaks in order to make it easier to grip for unscrewing. For prevention of leakage, a thin foil or plastic seal could be placed, or stuck across the top of the opening of the body before the lid is screwed on.
The container could be made of any material, although aluminium might be best. A lacquer coating may be required on the inside of the container.
The two portions of the container could be cleaned and re-used repeatedly, before eventually being recycled.
For product security and also to grevent I akage, the lid could additionally be held in place by a shrink wrap cellophankyton$ secured in place on the ridge just below the screw threads around the lip of the container.
