Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
163 words
Improvements for a product container having an adhesively secured closure: said product container being of the type formed with a cylindrical body providing a product compartment and having an upper edge bounding an opening into said product compartment; said closure being of the type formed as a cover having about its periphery a pair of outer and inner spaced apart walls bounding a cavity for adhesive therebetween and having an operative position in which said walls are in straddling relation over said product container upper edge incident to adhesive in said cavity bonding said cover as a closure to said cylindrical body; and said improvements comprising a radially outwardly extending lip means on said product container upper edge and in overlapped relation therewith a radially inwardly extending lip means on said outer wall of said cover, whereby said overlapping lip means contribute to minimizing any loss of adhesive from said adhesive cavity during the adhesive securement of said closure to said product container.
