Patent ID: 7083059

Claim:
A monolithic container ( 1 ) with a substantially cylindrical wall ( 2 ) and a petaloid-shaped base ( 6 , 7 ) which extends from the substantially cylindrical wall, said base comprising a wall that is shaped substantially convexly towards an outside of the container, wherein at least three members ( 6 ) originate from the substantially cylindrical wall and are formed by outgrowths that are regularly distributed and separated in pairs by a portion of the convex base wall ( 7 ), wherein: the base wall ( 7 ) is hemispherical, except for a peripheral marginal linking area ( 8 ) with the cylindrical wall, said peripheral marginal linking area ( 8 ) has a curve (R 1 ; R 2 ) with an inflection ( 9 ) so that the base wall and the peripheral marginal linking area as well as the cylindrical wall and the peripheral marginal linking area are linked in an almost tangential manner, and a top end of each member is connected with the cylindrical wall ( 2 ), wherein said inflection ( 9 ) is a change in curvature of said curve (R 1 ; R 2 ) from a concave curve to a convex curve.
