A container with a deep recessed bottom end construction is provided. The container includes an inner receptacle having a sidewall and a bottom wall defining an interior volume within the receptacle. The container further includes an outer sleeve wrapped around the inner receptacle with a lower end extending below the lower edge of the receptacle to form a deep bottom recess within a lower portion of the container. The lower end of the receptacle sidewall has a taper angle that is different from a taper angle of an upper portion of the sidewall. The lower end of the receptacle sidewall may engage or contact the inner surface of the outer sleeve. The outer sleeve may include reverse bend and/or a second bottom wall onto which a lower end of the receptacle may sit.

An environmentally-friendly cup and method of making the same are provided. The environmentally-friendly cup includes a cup body and a cup base. The cup body is formed by curling a paper material that has a first and a second portion. The second portion has a first and a second straight side. The first portion is connected to the first straight side of the second portion and is curled into a straw. The straw is adhesively bonded to the second straight side of the second portion such that the second portion is curled into a tubular wall with a top opening and a bottom opening. The top end of the straw juts out of the top opening. The straw is directly formed on the cup body and therefore can be easily carried as an integral part of the environmentally-friendly cup without getting lost.

The present invention describes a method and a machine for the formation of a capsule (100) for producing beverages in which the capsule (100) comprises a pleated capsule body (101) and a reinforcing element (102). The method comprises the following steps: a step of forming the pleated capsule body (101) of the capsule (100) in a first station (110); a step of supplying the reinforcing element (102) in a second station (111) different from the first station (110); a step of transporting the pleated capsule body (101) from the first station (110) to the second station (111); a step of insertion in the second station of the pleated capsule body (101) in the reinforcing element (102); a step of coupling between the pleated capsule body (101) and the reinforcing element (102) in the second station (111).

An assembly system for wrapping an outer wrapper to an inner sleeve to form an outer wall of a double-wall container can include a suction arm. The suction arm can be configured to couple to a suction source and can have a portion defining a suction surface. At least one suction opening can be provided within the suction surface and fluidly coupled to the suction source. A sealing edge can circumscribe at least a portion of the suction surface.

The present invention is a method for producing an elongated protective layer for the shape-forming material of a blank, in which a protective layer is applied onto a web fed base material or sheet base material. The protective layer is applied beyond the edges of the web fed base material or sheet base material on one side or two sides in order to form a free edge that is not fastened to the base material. The multi-layer material is then cut or punched along the outline of a blank. In the places where an elongated protective layer is produced, the cutting or punching is done directly along the free edge, taking into account a margin for the elongated portion of the protective layer of the blank. The invention protects the end faces of a material for a shapeable container.

Disclosed is a packaging box which includes a box body. The packaging box includes a cavity defined in the box body and a side wall surrounding the cavity, a support frame that disposed on an inner side of the side wall, and a bottom plate that is disposed in the cavity and at an end of the support frame. The support frame is integrated with the box body, an opening is provided in the box body, and the support frame is formed by bending the side wall located at the opening toward the cavity.

A container is formed to include and interior region that is configured to receive a product therein and the container is insulated.

A method of forming a board into a curved panel, including: providing a cutting tool having a support portion and a cutting portion, the cutting portion having a first cutting edge, and a plurality of second cutting edges disposed adjacent each other and recessed relative to the first cutting edge by a defined offset dimension; placing a corrugated board on the support portion such that a b-facing-layer is disposed facing the support portion, and an a-facing-layer is disposed facing the cutting portion; advancing the cutting portion toward the board such that the first cutting edge cuts completely through both the a-facing-layer and the b-facing-layer of the board, and the plurality of second cutting edges cut completely through the a-facing-layer, but not completely through the b-facing-layer; and, retracting the cutting portion away from the support portion and removing the panel to facilitate further manipulation of the panel into the curved panel.

A body portion (120A) that is a cylindrical body has one end portion, such as a lower end portion or the body portion (120A) or a first part (126) of a body portion (120), that is folded back inwardly. The body portion (120A) has at least one planar-shaped flat section, such as a second flat section (122) or a fourth flat section (124). A notch, such as a notch (K1) or a notch (K2), is provided at one end, such as a lower end, of the flat section. The one end portion includes a portion provided with the notch, such as by providing the notch (K1) or (K2) at a lower end of the lower end portion of the body portion (120A) or at a distal end of the first part (126A) of the body portion (120).

A device for forming a peripheral edge of a cup blank made of paper material, having at least one forming tool, wherein the forming tool is arranged on a tool carrier which is arranged so as to be rotatable about a rotation axis, wherein the rotation axis coincides with a longitudinal centre axis of the cup blank inserted into the device. The forming tool and the tool carrier are configured and arranged so as to travel along a profile, deviating from a circular shape, of the peripheral edge of the cup blank.
