A container assembly comprising a container of plastic material adapted for receiving a liquid and including a bottom of convex shape in the central portion of which the material is highly oriented. A stabilizing foot supports the container and for this purposes is welded to the container in the central portion of the bottom thereof whereat the material is highly oriented. The foot includes an annular projection extending downwardly from the portion welded to the container. The projection is hollow and forms an annular support foot including a rim which extends upwardly from the projection into smooth peripheral sliding engagement with the bottom of the container. The support foot is welded to the container while the middle portion of the projection is held against the middle portion of the bottom of the container.

A method of securing a tubular stabilizing arrangement of plastic material on a container of plastic material, said method comprising inserting the container into the tubular stabilizing arrangement into a position in which a middle portion of the bottom of the stabilizing arrangement is axially spaced from the bottom of the container while side walls of the stabilizing arrangement are in axial contact with the container, applying a force against the middle portion of the bottom of the stabilizing arrangement in order to cause it to lie against the middle portion of the bottom of the container while the walls of the tubular stabilizing arrangement axially abut against and engage the container, and simultaneously supplying energy in the region in which the middle portion of the bottom of the stabilizing arrangement lies against the middle portion of the bottom of the container, whereby the stabilizing arrangement is secured to the container in the middle portions of the arrangement and container respectively, wherein during the securing of the stabilizing arrangement to the container, the walls of said stabilizing arrangement are subjected to bending by the application of said force against the middle portion of the bottom of the stabilizing arrangement which displaces that portion axially relative to the other parts of the stabilising arrangement to cause said bottom of the stabilizing arrangement to lie against the middle portion of the bottom of the container, the middle portion of the bottom of the stabilizing arrangement remaining, after securing, in this position in which it is displaced relative to the other parts of the arrangement while said walls of said stabilizing arrangement are subjected to bending stress and tightly engage said container while being axially slidable with respect thereto.
