ABSTRACT:
A container comprising a hollow tray and a domed lid, each of which are of unitary molded plastic construction. The tray has a planar bottom wall peripherally encompassed by a generally outwardly and upwardly flaring upstanding wall with a rim over which the lid is snugly attachable. Peripherally interspaced indents are molded in and offset interiorly from the upstanding wall of the tray and define interiorly facing surface regions disposed in proximately perpendicular relationship with the bottom wall of the tray.
The container is particularly suitable for packaging a plurality of small dimensionally corresponding containers, such as ampuls, or the like. As such, it provides a package accommodating a plurality of rows of containers together with an upstanding plastic separator sheet separating each row of containers. The packaged containers gravitationally rest in upstanding, snug side-by-side relationship within the tray with their axial end portions projecting above the rim of the tray and enclosed within the interior confines of the domed lid. The package is especially well-suited for decasing the containers directly onto conventional apparatus associated with commercial container-filling systems, and provides a durable, inexpensive package for packaging containers in a clean, particulate-free environment. Also, the tray and lid components are designed to accommodate internesting with other like lids and trays and to facilitate stacking of packaged containers.
