Abstract

See full text

A container assembly includes a can, a can end, and a sheet which hermetically closes an access opening in the can end. The can end includes an opening for accessing the contents of the container. This opening is hermetically sealed closed by a sheet sealed to the end about the periphery of the opening with a closed-loop of adhesive. The sheet preferably includes a tab and a weakened or score line which causes the sheet to tear across the seal at an angle less than 90 degrees to the seal such that the sheet pulls away from the can end along a line generally parallel to the loop where the sheet is being separated from the can end.
