COATED LIFT-TAB FOR RESEALING POP-TOP CONTAINERS

摘要

A resealable pop-top beverage container is disclosed and claimed wherein a lift-tab is attached to the upper surface of the top of the container in a conventional manner such that when a finger-end of the lift-tab is raised, a swivel-end of the lift-t ab forces a sealing plate to shear its connection to the edge of an access hole, thereby opening the access hole. The lift-tab of the invention includes a coating of a resilient materi al on at least its ventral side. When the lift-tab is rotated about a rotatable connector, the resilient material can juxtaposed against the access hole thereby forming a reversible seal.
