Abstract

See full text

An all plastic container comprising the combination of injection molded pail and lid. The lid initially locks onto the container at upper and lower locations and seals thereto by virtue of an inverted U-shaped peripheral section with a segmented upper lock and a relatively continuously lower lock at the bottom edge of the lid skirt. The bottom lock can be torn away by way of a circumferentially weakened area that forms the lower edge of the skirt into a tear band. A starter tab is provided. Once the tear band is removed the segmented upper locks securely hold the lid to the pail. However, by lifting and flexing the lid at discrete locations identified by indicia on the top deck of the lid, the lid is relatively easily removed.
