Definitions
- the field of the invention is plastic containers for fluids.
- cylindrical containers have a large space between them even when touching, and this area means smaller volumes of the contents can be shipped in individual containers arranged within a space of a certain size, e.g., the van of a large trailer, compared to in the present invention.
- a cylindrical container when empty, cannot be nested, so stacking multiple empty containers for shipment to plants where they are filled also greatly increases the number of unfilled units which can be loaded into a shipment.
- the plastic container is a modified rectangular prism or, more specifically, a modified square prism.
- modified here means that the prism has a substantially rectangular or square 3-dimensional shape, except that at least a portion of the rectangular or square prism has four tapered sidewalls and, in this sense, the container is rectangular or square at its top and, in various embodiments, may have rounded corners or angular corners.
- the modified rectangular or square prism is thus a rectangular or square frustum.
- other embodiments at the top may have shapes other than rectangular or square, as long as they are non-cylindrical.

- the invention is a plastic container 1 comprising a bucket lA and a lid 16 sized to fit the bucket, said bucket comprising a rim 2 near a mouth 14 of the bucket, sidewalls 26, corners 12, and a bottom, each said sidewall having a width 29 and comprising two borders 30 integral, each border integral to one of the corners and also integral to the bottom 10, each said sidewall also comprising an upper portion 15, a nesting ridge 25 and a lower portion 3, said upper portion comprising a first end near the mouth and a second end integral to the nesting ridge, and the lower portion comprising a first end integral to the nesting ridge and a second end integral to the bottom, each said lower portion of the sidewalls having a width 29 greater near the nesting ridge than at the bottom, such that the mouth of the bucket is wider than the bottom and one of the buckets may be nested inside another bucket when the lids are removed and the buckets are empty.
- the container comprises four sidewalls 26 and the mouth of the bucket, the rim and the lid are shaped as a rectangle or, in another embodiment, a square.
- the aforesaid shape of the bucket describes a rectangular frustum extending from near the nesting ridge to the bottom.
- the corners 12 of the bucket lA, the rim 2 and the lid 16 are rounded.
- the lower portion 3 of each of the sidewalls 26 comprises an internal surface 11, and at least one of the internal surfaces 11 comprises ridges 7.
- the ridges 7 can be disposed so that they are approximately horizontal or parallel to the bottom 10 of the bucket, that is, they are non-vertical.
- the shape of the ridges 7 can be selected from a group consisting of straight lines, curvy lines, wavy lines, a chevron, or a series of bumps or other shapes placed randomly or irregularly.
- “horizontal” or “parallel” means broadly that the ridges 7 are not vertical so that, when a paint roller is applied, the ridges are able to contact the majority of the width of the roller, so as to remove excess paint from the roller.
- the rim 2 comprises a breakaway tab 6 at one or more of the corners 12 which, when broken off the rim 2, leaves no channel 20 in which fluids, such as paint, can collect and dry, hindering re-sealing of the lid 16.
- the lid 16 comprises an outer edge 28 and a stacking ridge 17 which is, in one embodiment, a continuous or nearly continuous ridge near the outer edge 28 of the lid
- the bucket lA further comprises a stacking loop 9 integral to the bottom 10, the sidewalls 26 and the corners 12 of the bucket, the stacking loop 9 being slightly wider than the stacking ridge 17 of a lower container, so that the stacking loop 9 of one container can fit within close proximity around the stacking ridge 17 and prevent a bucket filled with contents (stacked on top of another bucket) from sliding.
- the stacking ridge 17 and stacking loop 9 are sized such that stability can be achieved in stacking two or more containers by placing the stacking loop 9 of one bucket on the lid 16 of another of the containers adjacent to the stacking ridge.
- the lid 16 further comprises a U-shaped channel 18 which, when installed, faces toward the bottom 10 and the rim 2 further comprises a U-shaped channel 20 which faces away from the bottom, the U-shaped channel 18 of the lid comprising three projections E, F, I, and the U-shaped channel 20 of the rim comprises three projections D, G, H, each of said projections of the lid corresponding to one of said projections of the rim, so that pressing the U-shaped channel of the lid into the U-shaped channel of the rim forms three complementary or corresponding pairs A, B, C of said projections from the lid and the rim.
- the container comprises a bucket lA and a lid 16 sized to fit the bucket, said bucket lA comprising a rim 2 and sidewalls 26 defining a mouth 14 at an open end of the bucket, each of said sidewalls comprising a width 29 and two borders 30, each said border being integral to one of the corners 12 and said sidewalls also integral to a bottom, each width being greater near the mouth than at the bottom, such that one of the buckets maybe nested inside another bucket when the lids are removed and the buckets are empty. That is, the bucket in this embodiment has no nesting ridge but the sidewalls 26 comprise a continuous slope commencing near the mouth of the bucket, and the sidewalls 26 are, at their other end, integral to the bottom of the bucket.
- the aforesaid shape of the bucket describes a rectangular frustum extending from near the mouth, i.e, from inward slope notch G, to the bottom.
- the sidewalls 26 have no upper portion or lower portion.
- Embodiments of the bucket with sidewalls 26 having a continuous slope may also be rectangular or square, have rounded corners, have ridges 7 on one or more of the internal surfaces of the sidewalls, have a breakaway tab 6 on the rim, have a stacking ridge 17 on the lid 16, and a stacking loop 9 on the bucket, all as described in embodiments above.
- This embodiment may be, at the top, any shape which is non-cylindrical.
- the bucket and the lid are sized to fit each other and each has corners 12.
- the overall dimensions of the mouth of the bucket are wider at the top than at the bottom of the bucket, and the sidewalls 26 taper inwardly to a bottom 10 which is narrower than the dimensions of the mouth 14 of the bucket.
- the tapering thus allows one version of the bucket, before being filled with fluid, to nest inside another instance of the bucket as needed, such as during shipment from the production facility to the paint producer's facility. This allows significant reduction in freight as opposed to prior art cans.
- the invention in one embodiment, has a breakaway tab 6 in one corner which will tear when pressed by the user thus turning this corner into a natural pour spout.
- the U-shaped channel on the rim of prior art containers fills up with paint during pouring. This is a cleanup issue for closing the container. Paint left in the U-shaped channel of the rim 2 then dries and makes the lid more difficult to open and close in future use.
- the plastic container comprises a bucket and a lid sized to fit the bucket, said bucket comprising a rim, a bottom, a mouth at an open end defined by four sidewalls and each said sidewall comprising two borders and integral to one of four corners on each of said borders, each of said sidewalls further comprising an upper portion, a nesting ridge and a lower portion, said rim integral to said upper portions of the sidewalls and said rim comprising a breakaway tab, each said upper portion integral to one of the nesting ridges integral to one of the lower portions integral to the bottom, said lower portion having a width greater near the nesting ridge than at the bottom, such that one of the buckets can be nested in another of the buckets without the lid attached.
- the aforesaid shape of the bucket describes a rectangular frustum extending from near the nesting ridge to the bottom.
- the mouth, the lid and the rim are in the shape of a rectangle with rounded corners and, in a further embodiment, the rectangle is a square.
- the lid comprises a stacking ridge near an outer edge
- the bucket further comprises a stacking loop integral to the bottom on the bottom's outer perimeter and sized slightly larger than the stacking ridge, so that the stacking loop of one instance of the bucket can be positioned for stability just outside the stacking ring of the lid of another container.
- Fig. 1 is a first perspective view of one embodiment of the bucket lA without a handle or a lid 16 attached.
- the rim 2 including its outer wall 21, is affixed to the bucket comprising four sidewalls 26 (the three sections shown grouped together by brackets) which are generally planar and are comprised of an upper portion 15, a nesting ridge 25, and a lower portion 3, each sidewall being integral to two corners 12 which maybe, in different embodiments, rounded or angular.
- the upper portions 15 of the sidewalls 26 are approximately vertical, but the slope of the upper portion 15 may vary in other embodiments.
- Each lower portion 3 of the sidewalls is also integral to the bottom 10.
- a bracket 4 is affixed to two opposite sides of the rim 2, and each bracket has a hole 5 for receiving a handle having tabs 31, 32.
- the breakaway tab 6 may be labeled "Press,” or something similar, and is molded to the upper corner of the rim 2.
- the ridges 7, partially shown, are raised projections on the internal surface 11 of one or more of the lower portions 3 of the sidewalls 26, one of which is shown in Fig. 1. In one embodiment, there is one set of ridges 7 two or more internal surfaces 11.
- the mouth 14 of the bucket lA is defined by the rim 2 and the upper portions 15 of the sidewalls 26.
- Fig. 2 is a section view of two buckets at 45 degrees which are not holding contents and which are nesting together.
- One set of ridges 7 is depicted on the internal surface 11 of the lower portion 3 of a sidewall 26 in the bucket which is nesting inside the other bucket.
- the sidewall 26 and the stacking loop 9 of one bucket descends as far as the width allowed between the internal surfaces of the other bucket, so that the bottom 10 of one container is near the bottom 10 of the other container.
- Figure 2 also shows, in one embodiment, the nesting ridge 25 on the inner bucket rests on the rim 2 of the bucket in which it nests.
- Fig. 3 is a section view of a single instance of the entire container 1, that is, the bucket lA and the lid 16 which is inserted to seal the bucket.
- the rim 2 showing the ridges 7 on an internal surface 11 of the lower portion 3 of the sidewall 26 and the tapering of the sidewall 26 from a wider mouth 14, in this embodiment, by the narrowing dimension of the inward slope 27 and the lower portion 3 which also slopes inwardly to a bottom 10.
- the bottom 10 has a narrower width than the mouth 14, which allows an upper bucket to nest inside a lower bucket, as shown in Fig. 2.
- Fig. 4 is a section view showing an entire container 1, the bucket lA and the lid 16, holding fluid, and the loaded container 1 is positioned on top of a lid 16 for a lower bucket (not depicted).
- the stacking loop 17 is also shown in cross- section.
- Fig. 4A is an inset of a portion of the section in Fig. 4 showing the lower portion 3 of the sidewall 26 and the stacking loop 9 of an upper bucket which is resting just outside a stacldng ridge 17 on the lid 16 of a lower container.
- the stacking loop 9 is prevented from sliding by the barrier of the stacking ridge 17.
- the lid has a U-shaped channel 18 which faces toward the bottom 10 of the container when the lid 16 is installed, and a channel foot 19.
- Fig. 4B is an inset of the section view in Fig. 4 of the locking mechanism of the rim 2 and lid 16 in one embodiment of the container 1, but other mechanisms are possible in other embodiments.
- a structure of the lid 2 including the ridge E and the bump F is inserted into a U-shaped channel 20 of the rim 2. The bottom of the channel 20 is what is broken off when the breakaway tab 6 is separated from the rim 2.
- Fig. 5 is a top view looking down into a bucket lA having a rim 2 and a breakaway tab 6 but no lid attached.
- the bottom 10 is a top view looking down into a bucket lA having a rim 2 and a breakaway tab 6 but no lid attached.
- the bottom 10 is a top view looking down into a bucket lA having a rim 2 and a breakaway tab 6 but no lid attached.
- Fig. 5A is a detailed view of the breakaway tab 6, in one
- breakable joints 22 along the outer wall 21 of the rim 2 and also by additional breakable joints 22 on each end of the breakaway tab molded to the outer wall 21 of the rim 2.
- the user breaks off the breakaway tab 6 by pressing downwardly to tear these breakable joints 22, the number of which may vary.
- Fig. 5B is a detailed view of the lid 16 after the breakaway tab 6 is removed, in one embodiment, showing the breakable joints 22 after having been torn.
- Fig. 6 is a top view of the lid 16 including the stacking ring 17 and the outer edge 28 of the lid.
- Fig. 7 is a section view of the lid 16 showing the stacking ring 17. The outer edge 28 of the lid is also shown.
- Fig. 8 is a section view of two lids 16 as they stack for shipment. It also shows element 19 of the lid which is the outer wall of the U-shaped channel 18 of the rim 16.
- Fig. 9 is a bottom plan view of the bucket lA, showing that the bottom 10 is narrower than the upper part of the bucket as indicated by the rim 2, in part because of the slope of the lower portion 3 of the sidewalls 26.
- Fig. 10 depicts an embodiment in which the sidewalls 26 and their internal surfaces 11 comprise a continuous slope starting from the mouth 14 and tapering down to a narrower width at the bottom, i.e., wherein the sidewalls do not have an upper and a lower portion and a nesting ridge as in, e.g., Figs. 1-4.
- This embodiment adopts the other features of the other embodiments described above, except for the upper and lower portions and the nesting ridge of the sidewalls.
- Fig. 11 depicts the locking mechanism for embodiments of the convention herein.
- Fig. 11 shows the same structures of the lid and rim from Figs. 4 and 4B in more detail.
- three seal/latch combinations A, B, C (surrounded by circles for explanatory purposes only) produced by the coupling of corresponding pairs of projections from the lid's U-shaped channel 18 and the rim's U-shaped channel 20.
- Fig. 11 shows the lid 16 as installed in (sealed to) the rim 2.
- seal/latch A the top H of the sidewall 26, which has an inward slope J compared to the upper portion 15 of the sidewall 26, is engaged by a cleft I.
- seal/latch B the inward slope notch G of the sidewall 26, where the inward slope J of the upper portion 15 begins, is engaged by a bump F.
- seal/latch C a ridge E on the lid is engaged by a shoulder D on the rim 2.
- over-travel K i.e., unfilled volume in several places near combinations A, B, C to allow sufficient flexibility for the lid to be sealed and re-sealed to the rim with less damage to the structures if there were no spaces.
- the actual locations of the over-travel K may vary from those shown in Fig. 11, in that the movement of the lid and rim relative to each other are dynamic during and after insertion.
- the container 1 also comprises a handle 30, which may be of unitary construction and made of plastic, comprising a strap 33 with tabs 31, 32 projecting from the strap near either end.
- a handle 30 which may be of unitary construction and made of plastic, comprising a strap 33 with tabs 31, 32 projecting from the strap near either end.
- each of the brackets 5 are affixed to the exterior of the bucket la opposite one another and each bracket comprises a slot 4.
- the tab 31, 32 and slot 4 are sized and shaped to allow the tab 31, 32 to pass with force through the slot 4 in one
- the handle 30 comprises the strap 33 with tabs 31, 32 projecting from the strap 33 near either end.
- each end of the strap 33 is integral to a cap recessed from the plane of the strap, in which the tabs 31, 32 are located.
- the tabs 31, 32 project from the body of the strap 33.
- the handle 30 is preferably symmetrical, with one end being a mirror image of the other, and therefore will be described with respect to one end only. It should be understood that such description is applicable to the corresponding features on the other end as well.
- the strap 33 is sufficiently long with respect to the container 1 to form an arc above it, when the tabs are attached to the brackets, preferably with sufficient clearance between strap 33 and the lid 16 of the container for a person to grasp the handle without interference from the lid of the container.
- the tab 31, 32 comprises a three-dimensional head N that tapers from a broader base R to a narrower top M. In one embodiment the head N is attached to the strap 33 or cap by a post O.
- the cross section of the head N of the tab 31, 32 may be of any shape that allows its insertion into the slot 4 of the bracket 5 in one orientation and which becomes interlocked with the bracket 5 at any other orientation, including without limitation an oval, rectangle or spheroid. This generally requires the cross section to have major and minor axes, with the major axis being longer than the minor axis. Thus, the shapes described below are in all respects illustrative.
- the head N is a frustum which may be regular or irregular and the cross section defining its base may be any shape which generally has a major axis longer than a minor axis including, for example, a rectangle, an oval, squoval or a spheroid.
- the head N comprises a top M, opposing minor axis surfaces P defining the head's thickness in the direction of the minor axis, connected by opposing major axis surfaces Q defining its width in the direction of the major axis.
- the surfaces Q of the head N taper from the broader base R to the narrower top M.
- the thickness of the frustum need not be uniform from bottom to top and, in a preferred embodiment the thickness
- the cross section of the head N is rectangular and, in another embodiment, the shorter sides of the rectangle (in the direction of the minor axis) are convex.
- the major axis surfaces Q may be convex or arcuate.
- the head N is of uniform cross section for some distance from the base R.
- the minor axis surfaces P may be convex, such that the cross section at the base R of the frustum is a rectangle with rounded corners and approaches a circle at the top M. This shape reduces deformation of the head N as it is inserted into the slot 4 of the bracket 5.
- the post O of the tab 31, 32 may be substantially narrower than the width of the base R of the head N, and, in one embodiment, is circular in cross section.
- the tab 31, 32 is solid and of unitary construction with the strap 33 or the cap.
- the handle may rotate freely in a major arc defined by the opposite sides when the tabs 31, 32 are inserted into the slots 4.
