A resealable package for mixing two or more components, comprising a base, walls that extend from said base, whereby said walls are joined to each other such that an overall volume is defined that is able to accept a quantity of fluid, a fluid solid or gas, a folding section that folds such that the overall volume of the package is reduced, and a resealable opening.

A method and system is disclosed which provides for cooling beverage containers in a retail consumer multiple beverage container package which includes expandable corners, movable panels, and the ability to expand the interior space in the retail consumer multiple beverage container package so as to permit introduction of ice into the retail consumer multiple beverage container package. The interior space is expanded by stretching accordion joints between panels.

A multivariable perforated adjustable height box is provided with improved folding, bending, and separation of adjacent panels. The multivariable perforated adjustable height box may include a box, columns, rows, glue tabs, column scores, row scores, perforations, cuts, skips, and bundle breakers. Perforation patterns may be irregular, angled, shifted, or otherwise configured to increase usability, strength, and/or other aspects of the packaging. A method to produce a packaging device with improved folding, bending, and separation of adjacent panels using the multivariable perforated adjustable height box is also provided.

The present disclosure relates to a carrier apparatus primarily for carrying containers having food products therein; but secondarily for carrying containers having any type of products contained therein. Specifically, the carrier apparatus of the present invention allows a user to transport various amounts and types of containers securely, minimizing disturbance to products, such as food products, contained therein. More specifically, the carrier apparatus of the present invention comprises a first configuration for carrying a first amount of containers and a second configuration for carrying a second amount of containers.

A liner system for use with a carton of pre-packaged products to protect the carton from moisture may include a substantially continuous liner including a bottom panel and side and end wall panels extending upward from the bottom panel and defining an open top and the liner may be adapted for positioning in the carton prior to placement of the pre-packaged products and may include positioning features configured to maintain a position of the pre-packaged products.

The present invention relates to folding packaging for transporting vinyl records having an inner packaging element and an outer packaging element. The inner packaging element includes a rectangular first base plate, a first tab, a second tab, a third tab and a fourth tab. The outer packaging element includes a rectangular second base plate, a fifth tab, and a sixth tab; the first base plate and the second base plate lie flat on one another and are connected together, the tabs form folds with the associated base plates and can be folded onto the base plates to enclose the vinyl record(s), and the outer packaging element in the closed state is provided to surround the closed inner packaging element.

The present disclosure provides low volume, highly adjustable packaging that reduces surface area by 25% and overall material by 60% compared with standard boxes. In some embodiments, the presence of a telescoping sleeve, that is slightly wider than and slides over a mating sleeve, allows the length of the packaging to be adjusted. These volume and length reductions save approximately two-thirds of shipping costs. Further, in some embodiments, strategically placed scoring allows the packaging to flex and contour to the shape of a three-dimensional object to be placed in the packaging. In addition, reinforced corners protect contents of the package, and, in some embodiments, portions of the packaging are designed to be repurposed as artwork.

A perforation pattern for multivarible adjustable height box is provided with improved folding, bending, and separation of adjacent panels. The multivariable perforated adjustable height box may include a box, columns, rows, glue tabs, column scores, row scores, perforations, cuts, skips, and bundle breakers. Perforation patterns may be irregular, angled, shifted, or otherwise configured to increase usability, strength, and/or other aspects of the packaging. A method to produce a packaging device with improved folding, bending, and separation of adjacent panels using the multivariable perforated adjustable height box is also provided.

A box suitable for the packaging of a consumer product is formed by helically wrapping an elongated continuous strip of material around a mandrel to form a main body with a plurality of bands. In one embodiment, adjacent bands partially overlie one another to form a multi-paneled main body with an open top end and an open bottom end. An adhesive is disposed within the region of contact between adjacent bands to retain the shape of the main body. First and second sets of slots are formed in the main body to create flaps dimensioned to selectively enclose the open top and bottom ends, respectively. To define the flaps and promote pivotal articulation, the main body is also preferably provided with score lines. By adjusting the configuration of the mandrel, a customized box can be constructed that is sized to receive a consumer product with limited wasted space.

Process for reducing the height of a box to the level of the apex of the stack of objects therein, wherein horizontal score lines are made at a height substantially equal to that of the apex of the stack of objects and such that the distance between the apex and the top of the box is greater than the half-width of the box. During a phase of simultaneous folding of the upper parts of the two side walls parallel to the length of the box toward the centre thereof, and before the upper edges or ridges of the upper parts meet, the angles of inclination of the upper parts are differentiated with respect to one another so that, when the upper parts meet, the upper edge of one covers the upper edge of the other, the upper parts sliding over one another during the final phase of folding the latter.
