(under subclass 591) A container wherein the yieldable retainer is shaped, in whole or in part, to match the content contour for a "significant" extent of supporting contact.
(1) Note. Groove or furrow support is generally distinguished from "significant" extent of support, as afforded by contour configuration, in that the groove or furrow provide line contact or corner contact with the contact. Where the content is a simple cylindrical shape and the furrow is a mating concavity, the support is more than "groove-like".
