CONTAINERS FOR FLOWABLE PRODUCTS

摘要

A container (2) comprises a contiguous piece having: (a) a hollow body (10) having a neck (12), which terminates at a mouth (14); (b) a breakable transition portion (18) being contiguously coupled to the neck; and (c) a handle portion (30) coupled to the transition portion at one end and having a closure member (34) at the other end, which closure member comprises a cup (40) and a plug (48) disposed at a center of the cup. The outer dimension of the plug is sufficient to fit into the neck through the mouth when the handle portion is broken from the neck at the transition portion. A plurality of such containers is joined together by weakened intermediate creases (52) in an intermediate web disposed longitudinally along the body and by weakened distal creases (70) between two adjacent handle portions. Weakened intermediate creases are offset relative to the center line between two adjacent hollow bodies.
