A plastic container with an inverted V-shaped rim at the upper edge of its body. The rim configuration makes it easy to pour contents from the container and, after pouring, any material remaining on the rim will slide off. A cover with a V-shaped flange mates with the rim which holds it out of contact with the inner and outer surface of the body wall. The cover also has a pocket containing a sealing ring which is passed against the rim by a locking strap to seal the container.

A container comprising a body and a cover sealably connectable thereto such body being substantially cylindrical and having a wall having an inner surface defining an opening at upper edge thereof, a cover positioning and sealing rim integral with the wall at such upper edge of the body, such rim being resilient and having a conic outer first surface extending outwardly and upwardly from the opening whereby the contents in the container may be poured therefrom without impediment and whereby any such contents still in contact with this surface, after pouring, will slide back into the container prior to connecting or reconnecting the cover to the container, such rim further having a conic outer second surface extending outwardly and downwardly from the first surface whereby any contents from the container in contact with this surface also will slide off such surface away from the container prior to connecting or reconnecting the cover to the container, such cover being substantially cylindrical and having a closure part having a lower surface for closing the opening in the container, a cover positioning and sealing flange integral with the outer edge of the closure part, such flange being resilient and having an inner first surface extending upwardly and outwardly from the outer edge of the closure part and an inner second surface extending outwardly and downwardly from the first surface, such first and second surfaces of the flange being adapted abuttingly to contact the first and second surfaces of the rim when the cover is placed on the body and thereby assure that the cover is properly positioned on the body and, thus positioned, help seal the cover to the body, such flange further having an inner third surface extending from the second surface and defining a pocket for receiving a sealing ring, such flange further having an upper fourth surface and an outer fifth surface which define with portions of the third surface a resilient flange extension extending downwardly from the main portion of the flange, a resilient sealing ring positioned in the pocket of the flange and, a sealing means positioned in abutting contact with the outer fifth surface of the cover flange whereby resiliently to urge the sealing ring into abutting contact with the outer second surface of the rim and thereby seal the cover to the body to form a sealed container.
