    Abstract: A molded polymeric container includes a substantially cylindrical body portion (12) and a bottom portion (20). The bottom portion (20) includes a central pushup area (30) that is substantially symmetrical about the longitudinal axis (18), a plurality of support feet (22) separated by ribs (34). Advantageously, the radius of the pushup area (Rp) is between 10 to 50 % of the radius of the sidewall (RL) of the body portion (12). The longitudinal distance between the central point of the pushup area and the bottom of the support feet (Dp) is no more than 100 % of the radius of the pushup area (Rp). Moreover, the radius of curvature of the ribs (R5) is no less than about 70 % of the radius of the sidewall (RL) of the body portion (12).

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a metallic can body (24) that is shaped distinctively in order to enhance its visual presentation to consumers includes, in one embodiment, steps of providing a can body blank (10) that has a sidewall that is of a substantially constant diameter; providing a mold unit (38) that has at least one mold wall (46) that defines a mold cavity conforming a desired final shape of the can body (24); positioning the can body blank (10) within the mold cavity (46); and supplying a pressurized fluid into the mold cavity so that the can body blank (10) is forced by pressure against the mold wall (46), causing the can body blank (10) to assume the desired final shape of the can body (24). Axial compression is preferably applied to the can body blank in order to reduce internal stresses during molding of the container. A second embodiment includes steps of radially deforming the can body blank in selected areas by selected amounts to achieve an intermediate can body that is radially modified, but is still symmetrical about its axis; and superimposing a preselected pattern of mechanical deformations that have an axial component onto the intermediate can body. Related apparatus and processes are also disclosed.

    Abstract: A beverage can closure assembly with an improved pressure seal includes an insert (8) hermetically installed in the can top (2), and a closure (4) comprising a plug (14) received in an aperture in the insert. A plate portion of the closure, above the plug, has an outwardly extending rim whose lower surface abuts the top of the insert when the plug is screwed into the insert. A good seal is obtained by providing a groove (15) in the bottom surface of the rim and a complementary bead on the insert, around the aperture. The bead has an interference fit in the groove when the plug is secured in the insert.
