Problems solved by technology

Presently, for many containers such as for example, cans, it is difficult to re-seal them once they have been opened.
This can cause the contents of cans, which typically include effervescent drinks to ruin and thus be inedible.
Furthermore, for containers such as cans, or the like, it is often difficult to carry a plurality of containers at once.
Thus, it is often difficult to carry the plurality of cans without spillage.

[0076]In particular, FIGS. 1A and 1B shows a device 1, which includes a rim 5 for sealing with an edge of a container 10. The rim 5 for sealing can form a part of a sealing portion 12. Notably, the sealing portion 12 can also be an engaging portion, where the rim 5 can engage with an edge of the container. This is further discussed below.

[0077]FIGS. 1A to 1C show that the device 1 can include a walled portion 15, where the walled portion 15 is configured to support another container 10 placed on / at least partially within the device 1 (as particularly shown in FIG. 1C). Thus, the walled portion 15 can also be referred to as a receiving portion, where it is formed to receive and / or hold another container, or as described below, another device for sealing 1.

[0078]In the example shown in FIGS. 1A to 1C, the device 1 can include a first surface 20 having a rim 5 for sealing with an edge of the container 10. The device 1 can...
