A liquid container sealing construction comprises a container body having at least one open end surrounded by a marginal edge thereof and an end closure member closing the open end of the container body. The container body is coated on its inner surface with a heat sealable thermoplastic material. The end closure member includes a peripheral flange coated on its outer surface with a heat sealable thermoplastic material. The peripheral flange and the marginal edge jointly provide a contacting portion where they are intimately fused and united together by the heat sealable thermoplastic material, and also provide a portion where they are held out of contact with each other, the latter portion being located adjacent to the turned edge of the flange. There are also provided a method and apparatus for sealing the liquid container with the end closure member.

A liquid container sealing construction comprising: (i) a container body having at least one open end surrounded by a marginal portion thereof, said container body having on its inner surface a coating of a heat sealable thermoplastic material, and (ii) an end closure member closing said open end of the container body, said end closure member including a base and a peripheral flange extending from a turning edge bounding said base, said peripheral flange having on its outer surface a coating of a heat sealable thermoplastic material, said peripheral flange and said marginal portion jointly providing a first zone, remote from said turned edge, where said flange and said marginal portion are fused and intimately united together by said heat sealable thermoplastic material, said peripheral flange and said marginal portion further jointly providing a second zone, adjacent said turned edge, where said flange and said marginal portion are held out of contact with each other, whereby upon completion of heat sealing together of said peripheral flange and said marginal portion at said first zone, said peripheral flange and said marginal portion may move relatively one with respect to the other at said second zone to permit said base to move relative to said container body for relieving tension applied thereto during heat sealing.
