Abstract

See full text

A lid is provided for closing off the open end of one of respective first and second containers, each container a different diameter and having a peripherally disposed bead at its open end. An axially disposed annular inner wall projects downwardly from a central cover portion, and defines a generally circular first annular channel open towards the bottom face of the lid. The upper limit of insertion of the peripherally disposed bead of a first container is defined by a generally planar edge. The wall defining the first annular channel has a radially inwardly extending central portion that forms a first reduced waist portion, which is shaped and dimensioned to retain the peripherally disposed bead of the first container, and also defines the upper limit of insertion of the bead of a second container which has a larger diameter, into a second channel formed in the lid. The second channel is further defined by a radially inwardly extending central portion that forms a second reduced waist portion, which is shaped and dimensioned to retain the peripherally disposed bead of the second container. An annular skirt portion extends downwardly and outwardly at the lower extremity of the lid.
