A method for heat sealing a lid on a thermoplastic drinking glass comprising a wall with an upper end having a rim comprising an annular rib and two collecting surfaces extending on either side of the annular rib. According to the invention, the rim also comprises first and second annular grooves extending between the annular rib and the collecting surfaces. The method comprises, during the heat sealing of the lid, a step of making all or part of the annular rib flow into the grooves.
The invention relates to a method for heat-sealing a seal on a thermoplastic glass comprising a wall whose upper end comprises an edge - or rim (20) - comprising an annular rib (23) and two collection surfaces (26, 28) extending on either side of the annular rib (23). According to the invention, the rim also comprises first and second annular grooves (30, 31) extending between the annular rib (23) and the collection surfaces (26, 28). The method comprises, during the heat-sealing of the seal (50), a step consisting in causing all or part of the annular rib (23) to flow into the grooves.

The invention relates to a method for packaging wine in a container essentially consisting of a glass made of a plastic material and closed by a lid, wherein a lid is sealed onto the drinking rim of the glass and, during the sealing of the lid, the container is deformed so as to reduce the volume in the head space. The drinking rim includes an annular rib (90) comprising a central upper portion (51) and two lower side portions. The lid has a local deformation (70,73,80) that promotes the overall deformation of the lid so as to reduce the volume of the head space (88).
