STABLE SUPPORTS FOR PLASTIC CONTAINERS

摘要

A container assembly comprising a container of plastic material adapted for receiving a liquid and including a bottom of convex shape in the central portion of which the material is thicker and less oriented than in the outer portion and the side wall. A stabilizing foot supports the container and for this purposes is welded to the container in the central portion of the bottom thereof whereat the material is less oriented. The foot includes an annular projection extending downwardly from the portion welded to the container. The projection is hollow and forms an annular support foot including a rim which extends upwardly from the projection into smooth peripheral sliding engagement with the bottom of the container. The support foot is welded to the container while the middle portion of the projection is held against the middle portion of the bottom of the container.
