Multi-walled container with deep recessed bottom construction
A multi-walled container patent application (Publication Number: US20230382589A1) describes a unique design comprising an inner receptacle with a sidewall, uppermost and lowermost edges, and a first bottom wall. The sidewall features different taper angles at the upper and lower ends. An outer sleeve partially surrounds the inner receptacle, with a second bottom wall attached to its lower end. The lowermost edge of the receptacle sidewall is in contact with the inner surface of the outer sleeve, ensuring structural integrity and stability. The design allows for a circumferential gap between the inner receptacle sidewall and the outer sleeve, maintaining uniformity along the upper portion of the inner receptacle sidewall.
Furthermore, the patent application includes a method for forming the multi-walled container, involving obtaining the inner receptacle with specific taper angles, obtaining the outer sleeve with a second bottom wall, and combining the two components to ensure contact between the lower end of the receptacle sidewall and the inner surface of the outer sleeve. The method emphasizes the importance of maintaining contact between the components for structural stability. Additionally, the method includes attaching a downwardly depending annular skirt of the second bottom wall to the inner surface of the outer sleeve, further enhancing the container's structural integrity. Overall, the patent application highlights a novel design and method for creating a multi-walled container with specific taper angles and contact points to improve functionality and stability.
