ABSTRACT:
Device for storing and dispensing a flowable substance that includes a container (20) having container apertures (50) and a multiply positionable lid (21) having lid apertures (49). With the lid (21) in the closed position, the lid (21) cannot be lifted from the container (20) and there is not access to the flowable substance. When the lid (21) is in the access position, the container and lid apertures align, allowing access to the flowable substance when an access seal (37) is altered. A third position, the remove position, allows removal of the lid (21) after the breaking of a lid removal indicator (51) so that tampering with the interior of the container (21) may be ascertained by, for example, the food supplier. Further embodiments include a rolling ring (30) having hanging holes (31) that preclude vertical hanging; a handle ring (28) having handle holes (29) that are angularly offset from the hanging holes (31); forklift and nesting capability; an identification card holding nipple (43 ); a bayonet engagement between the container (20) and the lid (21); a funnel shaped sump (26); and double-walled construction, e.g., for enhanced strength and thermal insulation. A gap (70) between the inner wall (20a) and outer wall (56, 57) of the double-walled device (58) is preferably filled, depending on the application of the device (58), with a neutralizing, capturing, heat insulating, indicating, or strengthening substance. A given gap-filling substance can possess any combination of the properties mentioned above, among others.
