Definitions

  • This disclosure generally relates to containers for retaining a commodity, such as a solid or liquid commodity. More specifically, this disclosure relates to a foldable container and/or a container that is ultra flexible for squeezing.
  • PET containers are now being used more than ever to package numerous commodities previously supplied in glass containers.
  • PET is a crystallizable polymer, meaning that it is available in an amorphous form or a semi-crystalline form.
  • the ability of a PET container to maintain its material integrity relates to the percentage of the PET container in crystalline form, also known as the "crystallinity" of the PET container.
  • p is the density of the PET material
  • p a is the density of pure amorphous PET material (1 .333 g/cc)
  • p c is the density of pure crystalline material (1 .455 g/cc).
  • Container manufacturers use mechanical processing and thermal processing to increase the PET polymer crystallinity of a container.
  • Mechanical processing involves orienting the amorphous material to achieve strain hardening. This processing commonly involves stretching an injection molded PET preform along a longitudinal axis and expanding the PET preform along a transverse or radial axis to form a PET container. The combination promotes what manufacturers define as biaxial orientation of the molecular structure in the container.
  • Manufacturers of PET containers currently use mechanical processing to produce PET containers having approximately 20% crystallinity in the container's sidewalk
  • Thermal processing involves heating the material (either amorphous or semi-crystalline) to promote crystal growth.
  • thermal processing of PET material results in a spherulitic morphology that interferes with the transmission of light. In other words, the resulting crystalline material is opaque, and thus, generally undesirable.
  • thermal processing results in higher crystallinity and excellent clarity for those portions of the container having biaxial molecular orientation.
  • the thermal processing of an oriented PET container typically includes blow molding a PET preform against a mold heated to a temperature of approximately 250°F - 350°F (approximately 121 °C - 177°C), and holding the blown container against the heated mold for approximately two (2) to five (5) seconds.
  • Manufacturers of PET juice bottles, which must be hot-filled at approximately 185°F (85°C) currently use heat setting to produce PET bottles having an overall crystallinity in the range of approximately 25% -35%.
  • a folding container comprising a body portion defining a receptacle chamber within the container into which product can be filled and at least one rib extending along at least a portion of the body portion.
  • the at least one rib being articulable to permit the body portion to collapse to a generally flattened position in the absence of the product contained therein.

  • Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough, and will fully convey the scope to those who are skilled in the art. Numerous specific details are set forth such as examples of specific components, devices, and methods, to provide a thorough understanding of embodiments of the present disclosure. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that specific details need not be employed, that example embodiments may be embodied in many different forms and that neither should be construed to limit the scope of the disclosure.
  • first, second, third, etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, components, regions, layers and/or sections, these elements, components, regions, layers and/or sections should not be limited by these terms. These terms may be only used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or section from another region, layer or section. Terms such as “first,” “second,” and other numerical terms when used herein do not imply a sequence or order unless clearly indicated by the context. Thus, a first element, component, region, layer or section discussed below could be termed a second element, component, region, layer or section without departing from the teachings of the example embodiments.
  • Spatially relative terms such as “inner,” “outer,” “beneath”, “below”, “lower”, “above”, “upper” and the like, may be used herein for ease of description to describe one element or feature's relationship to another element(s) or feature(s) as illustrated in the figures. Spatially relative terms may be intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, elements described as “below” or “beneath” other elements or features would then be oriented “above” the other elements or features. Thus, the example term “below” can encompass both an orientation of above and below. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly.
  • This disclosure provides for a container that is sufficiently flexible or collapsible to permit flattening after molding for reduced shipping volume prior to filling. That is, in some embodiments of the present teachings, a container is provided that can be flattened after molding to facilitate simplified shipping to a filling location. In some embodiments, this flexible or collapsible function can further assist in the dispensing and/or evacuation of product from the container by a user. Still further, in some embodiments, this flexible or collapsible function can further aid in recycling and/or disposal of the container by reducing the container volume. Finally, in addition to other benefits, the container of the present teachings provides for lighter weight containers, thereby reducing material and shipping costs.

It is also contemplated that other modifications can be made depending on the specific application and environmental requirements.
  • the one-piece plastic container 10 defines, in some embodiments, a body 12, and includes an upper portion 14 having a sidewall forming a finish 20. Integrally formed with the finish 20 and extending downward therefrom is a shoulder portion 22. The shoulder portion 22 merges into and provides a transition between the finish 20 and a sidewall portion 24. The sidewall portion 24 extends downward from the shoulder portion 22 to a base portion 28 having a base 30. In some embodiments, sidewall portion 24 can extend down and nearly abut base 30, thereby minimizing the overall area of base portion 28 such that there is not a discernable base portion 28 when container 10 is uprightly-placed on a surface.
  • the exemplary container 10 may also have a neck 23.
  • the neck 23 may have an extremely short height, that is, becoming a short extension from the finish 20, or an elongated height, extending between the finish 20 and the shoulder portion 22.
  • the upper portion 14 can define an opening for filling and dispensing of a commodity stored therein.

  • shoulder portion 22, sidewall portion 24, and base portion 28 can each separately, collectively, or in various combinations comprise internal and/or external folding features 100 extending at least a length thereof that effectively permits flexing and/or collapsing of the container in a direction conducive to reduce packaging size requirements. That is, in some embodiments, this flexing and/or collapsing of the container can be in a non-longitudinal direction (e.g. flattening and the like). Shoulder portion 22, sidewall portion 24, and base portion 28 can be arranged such that folding features 100 are equidistantly arranged about at least a portion of container 10. Such symmetrical arrangement provides aesthetic qualities and improves collapsing and/or grip performance.
