ABSTRACT:
For a pressurized container for dispensing a fluent material, and particularly an aerosol container, the cover or lid is domed, but is of sufficiently thin material that it might distort under elevated pressure in the container. To inhibit such distortion, one or both of the side walls of the cover recess, which is toward the periphery of the installed cover, are reinforced against deforming or stretching out of the container. In one embodiment, the radially inner wall of the recess engages the radially outer wall of the recess so that outward distortion of the dome of the cover is resisted by the stiffness of both engaged walls of the recess, strengthening the thin material domed cover against deformation under pressure in the container. Specifically, there may be annular ribs or other engageable deformations on walls of the recess that engage and thereby provide interference against the radially outer wall moving up out of the container upon the dome attempting to deform outwardly. In another embodiment, the radially outer and/or inner recess walls are stiffened by being corrugated. In still a further embodiment, the recess walls are partially angled and engage each other in the event deformation commences, and thereby effectively become a double wall construction resisting deformation.
