Abstract

A one-piece container for viscous materials comprising an outer surface, an inner surface having a lid section and base section with two side edges aligned and connected between the lid section edge and the base section edge such that they taper off through a narrowed mid-section, the inner surface of the base section has a base receptacle portion, the outer surface of the lid section is preferably flat and the inner surface of the lid section has a lid portion.

1 . A one-piece container for viscous materials comprising:
 an outer surface;   an inner surface;   a lid section and a base section fixed at opposite ends of the inner surface; with a mid-section fixed between these two sections;   a lid portion fixed within the lid section; and   a base receptacle portion fixed within the base section.   
     
     
         2 . A one-piece container according to  claim 1  wherein the outer surface has a raised ridge aligned and orientated around underneath the base section with a plurality of openings for aeration. 
     
     
         3 . A one-piece container according to  claim 1  wherein the base receptacle portion is positioned within the periphery of the base section's outer edge to provide an area to grip when opening and closing the container. 
     
     
         4 . A one-piece container according to  claim 1  wherein the base receptacle portion is provided a concavity aligned and orientated around the outer surface of the base receptacle portion near its opening to removably interlock with the lid portion. 
     
     
         5 . A one-piece container according to  claim 1  wherein the lid portion is provided a continuous perpendicularly fixed ridge aligned and orientated around the inner surface of the lid portion near its opening to removably interlock with the concavity of the base receptacle portion. 
     
     
         6 . A one-piece container according to  claim 1  wherein the lid portion is positioned within the periphery of the lid section's outer edge to provide an area to grip when opening and closing the container. 
     
     
         7 . A one-piece container according to  claim 1  wherein the lid portion is provided a continuous perpendicularly ridge fixed to the inside bottom area of the lid portion adjacent and orientated parallel to the inside surface of the lid portion providing a channel section between this ridge and the inside surface of the lid portion. 
     
     
         8 . A one-piece container according to  claim 7  wherein the channel section is provided dimensions to neatly fit when removably engaging with the top edge area of the base receptacle portion when the container is closed to affect an airtight seal. 
     
     
         9 . A one-piece container according to  claim 1  wherein the mid-section is provide two side edges that taper towards the mid-point of the mid-section to provide a flexure and pivot point. 
     
     
         10 . A one-piece container according to  claim 9  wherein the mid-point of the mid-section is provided of a material thickness less than the thickness of the lid and base sections to enable the mid-section to flex and pivot around this mid-point. 
     
     
         11 . A one-piece container according to  claim 10  wherein the mid-section is made from material with inherent elastic properties to provide spring like flexure to assist a user to open the container.
