A container having a knit line. The container comprises a body defining a partially enclosed volume having an access opening defined by a neck, the neck defining a pocket. An insert is coupled to the neck. The insert comprises an outer wall configured to fit within the opening of the container and defining the periphery of the insert. The outer wall has an upper edge and a lower edge, with the upper edge including an annular lip extending radially outward to prevent the insert from being pushed too far into or through the neck. The tooth extends from the lip and is configured to insert into a notch defined by the neck of the container. An upstanding spout is located within the outer wall. A bottom wall connects the lower edge of the outer wall and the spout to form a channel between the outer wall and the spout. The lip includes a first portion having a first radius and a second portion having a second radius, wherein the first radius is larger than the second radius with the first portion forming a seal at the knit line of the container when the cover is threaded onto the neck.

Container sealing system

A plastic paint container includes a body having an interior and a neck defining an opening to the interior. The neck includes a neck sealing surface. An insert includes an outer wall configured to fit within the opening of the body and defining the periphery of the insert. The outer wall includes an upper edge and a lower edge. A lip extends radially outward from the upper edge to prevent the insert from being pushed to far into or through the neck. The lip is formed from a first material and includes an upper surface and a lower surface. The lip includes a second material formed over the first material. The first material being harder than the second material. A cover is threadably engaged with the neck. The second material contacts the neck sealing surface and a cover sealing surface when the cover is threadably engaged on the neck.

Fixture element

A system for containing paint is disclosed. The system comprises a body between a cover and a base. The system also comprises a handle configured for attachment to the body and selectively configurable between a first position and a second position. The system also comprises a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism comprises a protrusion configured for insertion into a recess of the body. The locking mechanism also comprises a tab of the handle configured for selective insertion into a track of the body. The locking mechanism is configured to inhibit movement of the handle in at least two planes when the handle is in the first position. A method of using a container for paint is also disclosed. A system for containing paint comprising means for locking the handle to the body is also disclosed.

Paint container handle

A method and apparatus for transporting fluid. The apparatus includes a hollow body having a neck defining a first aperture extending into the body. A spout insert is configured to fit inside the neck. A handle is coupled to the container. A cover is configured to close the aperture. In another embodiment the handle and cover are integrally formed as a single piece. Another embodiment provides the handle, the cover and the spout are integrally formed as a single piece. In another embodiment, the cover includes an auxiliary lid to cover a second aperture extending into the body.

Paint container

A paint container includes a top, a bottom, and at least one side wall. A handle is pivotally attached to the body proximate the top. A recess is disposed in the handle proximate the top of the container when the handle is in a rest position. The handle includes an indentation to receive a hook for supporting the container. The handle also includes a pair of tabs that are received in recesses in the bottom for positive location and secure stacking.

Container

A monitoring, tracking or security system includes a tamper detection system or employs a tamper detection method. A tamper detection system can include a member having a first surface and a second surface, the second surface being attached to a piece of equipment. The sensing element is disposed on the first surface of the member. The housing is attached to the first surface. A circuit is electrically coupled to the sensing element. The circuit provides an alarm signal in response to the sensing element being distorted.

Tamper proof system and method

A paint container includes a body having a bottom, a plurality of side walls, and a top. An attachment mechanism is located proximate the top. A cap is configured to be secured to the attachment mechanism. A spout extends upward proximate the top and is at least partially surrounded by the attachment mechanism. A channel located between the attachment mechanism and the spout permits paint spilled into the channel to flow back into the paint container.

Printer cartridge

A paint container includes a top, a bottom, and at least one side wall. A handle is pivotally attached to the body proximate the top. A finger recess is disposed in the bottom and an access recess is positioned between the bottom and at least one side wall. A user may insert one or more fingers through the access recess and into the finger recess to grasp the body when the body is resting on a flat surface.
