Container and lid

A lid for a container, comprising:

• a central portion;
• an u-shaped channel extending at least partially around the central portion, the u-shaped channel having first and second generally vertical sidewalls;
• an outer skirt separated from the second sidewall via a wall at a periphery of the u-shaped channel;
• a first angled protrusion protruding from a side of the second sidewall closest to the outer skirt and being configured to form an interference fit with an inner surface of the container;
• a second angled protrusion on the side of the second sidewall that is substantially parallel to the first angled protrusion and
• a protruding ridge on an inner surface of the outer skirt, wherein the protruding ridge includes a plurality of ribs, wherein a substantial surface portion of an underside of the wall is configured to abut the container to form a substantially liquid-tight gasketless seal and an upper edge of the protruding ridge is discontinuous.

A container and lid,

• wherein the container comprises:
• a base;
• a sidewall extending upwardly from the base to an upper rim, wherein the sidewall surrounds an inner cavity, and wherein the sidewall tapers away from the inner cavity while extending upwardly from the base;
• a satellite ring extending outwardly from the container sidewall;
• and
• a bead protruding outwardly from the container sidewall;
• wherein the lid comprises:
• a central body portion;
• a channel around a periphery of the central body portion configured to form a substantially liquid-tight gasketless seal with the upper rim of the container, the channel including an outer skirt and an inner skirt, wherein the inner skirt is configured to contact an inner surface of the container sidewall, the inner skirt including a first angled inner skirt protrusion protruding outwardly from the inner skirt and extending around the central body portion and a second inner skirt angled protrusion substantially parallel to the first angled inner skirt protrusion, wherein the first and second angled inner skirt protrusions are configured to form an interference fit with the inner surface of the sidewall, wherein the channel includes a wall connecting the inner skirt and the outer skirt;
• a tearline for separating an upper portion of the outer skirt and a lower tearstrip portion, wherein a lower edge of the lower tearstrip portion is configured to lie adjacent the satellite ring of the container;
• and
• a first protruding ridge on the upper portion of the outer skirt and a second protruding ridge on the lower tearstrip portion, wherein the first and second protruding ridges are configured to lie below the container bead, wherein a substantial surface portion of an underside of the wall abuts the upper rim to form the substantially liquid-tight gasketless seal and wherein an upper edge of the first protruding ridge is discontinuous and wherein and upper edge of the second protruding ridge is discontinuous.

A lid for a container, comprising:

• a central portion for covering an opening of the container;
• a channel at a periphery of the central portion configured to form a substantially liquid-tight gasketless seal with the container, the channel including an inner skirt for contacting an inner surface of the container, an outer skirt for extending around an outside surface of the container and a wall connecting the inner skirt and the outer skirt;
• an angled protrusion protruding from the inner skirt and being configured to form an interference fit with the inner surface of the container, wherein a substantial surface portion of an underside of the wall is configured to abut the container to form the substantially liquid-tight gasketless seal;
• and
• a second inner skirt protrusion.
