Abstract
A tube container comprises a tubular member having one end thereof flanged inwardly to form an internal flange facing the opposite end of said tubular member and a discharge member, provided with a thin annular flange diverging in the discharge direction of the tube container, such that its maximum dimension exceeds the inner dimension of the tubular member. The discharge member is inserted in the tubular member such that the annular flange thereof is located in the space between the outer wall of the tubular member and the internal flange thereof.
Claims6
A container comprising a tubular member having a first end and a second end, the first end of said tubular member folded inwardly to form a first annular flange at said first end directed toward said second end and defining a first annular space between said first annular flange and said tubular member, a discharge member attached to said tubular member at said first end and being designed to dispense the contents of the container, said discharge member having a peripheral portion with a resilient second annular flange formed thereon having an outer lip portion of unflexed maximum diameter greater than the inner diameter of said tubular member directed toward said first end of said tubular member and defining a second annular space between said resilient annular flange and said discharge member, said resilient annular flange of said discharge member being in resilient contact with the inner surface of said tubular member and with said lip portion sealingly retained in said first annular space, and said first annular flange of said tubular member being retained in said second annular space.
