RECLOSABLE PLASTIC CONTAINER WITH READILY APPARENT TAMPER EVIDENT FEATURE

A container includes a lid and base having flanges that are initially attached to each other by engagement of attachment regions of fixed and frangible engagement mechanisms provided in the flanges. Each of the frangible engagement mechanisms is frangibly detachable from its flange, and includes at least one wing extending from its attachment region. During a first opening of the container, the attachment regions initially remain fixed together, while the wings are bent at an oblique angle from the plane of the flanges. Upon reclosure of the container, the wings remain obliquely bent, and provide a readily apparent tamper indication. Wing hinges can be included between the wings and attachment regions to enhance the wing bending during initial opening. The lid and base can be separate, or can be attached to each other by a hinge, such as a living hinge or a scored hinge.

ALARMED CLOSABLE PACKAGING FOR PALLETS
20230215252 · 2023-07-06 ·

An alarmed closable packaging for a container of goods has at least two sections whose edges have closure elements and which, once in contact, completely envelop and seal the container of goods. The multilayer sections have first and second electrically conductive layers with an insulator between. The insulator recovers its thickness after having undergone crushing. Each section has a support with conductive attachments connected to respective conductive layers. Each section has an electronic device attached by the support, an electrode of the electronic device contacting conductive attachments of the support, creating a low continuous voltage on the first electrically conductive layer of each section, with another electrode similarly connected to the second electrically conductive layer. The electronic device transmits a signal to a receiver and records variation of the voltage from impacts or tears of the closable packaging or to an unauthorised removal of the device from its support.

FOLDABLE PACKAGE PROVIDED WITH FOLDABLE PACKAGING MEANS AND LOCKING MEANS

Reclosure system and the use of such reclosure system
11548698 · 2023-01-10 · ·

A reclosure system comprising a bottle and a reversible lid. The bottle comprises a bottle neck having an axial extension and a mouth providing access to the interior of the bottle. The bottle neck comprises a circumferential wall portion being provided with a first locking means. A first side of the reversible lid comprises a collar comprising a second locking means configured to selectively allow the reversible lid to sealingly close off the mouth of the bottle neck by the second locking means engaging the first locking means of the bottle neck. A second side of the reversible lid, opposite the first side, comprises a third locking means configured to selectively engage the bottle neck, to define a through-going venting hole in an interface between the reversible lid and the bottle neck, said through-going venting hole allowing a communication between the interior and exterior of the bottle.
