Abstract

The invention concerns thermoplastics material cups which nest to seal a chamber in the bottom of the lower cup. A thermoplastics material cup (12) for nesting in a like cup has an endless groove (28) on its interior wall spaced from the bottom (16) to interlock with a lug (36) adjacent the bottom (16) of a similar cup. The groove (28) and lug (36) have similarly sloped entry ramps (30, 38) leading to preferably vertical sealing surfaces (32, 40) and the lug (36) is about 10% larger than the groove (28) the dimensions being such that interengagement of the entry ramps (30, 38) causes longtitudinal compression of the lug (36) and consequential radial expansion giving intimate sealing between the sealing surfaces (32, 40) to seal the space (60) in the bottom of the lower cup, so as to keep fresh a comestible located therein.
