The technology disclosed herein includes a storage apparatus comprising an inner sleeve, including a first tab including memory-inducing laminated material, a second tab including memory-inducing laminated material, and an inner sleeve storage compartment; and an outer sleeve encompassing the inner sleeve when the storage apparatus is locked, and including a first aperture for receiving the first tab in a first locking mechanism, and a second aperture for receiving the second tab in a second locking mechanism.

A wrapped container of consumer goods, includes a container for housing consumer goods enclosed by a wrapper with a tear tape, a label positioned between the container and the wrapper, the label and the tear tape arranged such that actuation of the tear tape to open the wrapper causes the label to become severed, wherein at least a portion of the tear tape is at an angle with a longitudinal axis of the container and with a transverse axis of the container.

A package having a lid seated on a base where the edge of the seated lid is generally inaccessible, and where the edge is made accessible by a movement of a tamper-evident tab. The base and lid are configured so that opening of the tamper-evident tab locks the tab in the opened position. The inner edge of the tamper-evident tab is joined to the base by a hinge. The tamper-evident tab includes a protrusion that extends inwardly beyond the hinge. The lid includes a retention feature overlying the tamper-evident tab. The protrusion interacts with the retention feature to provide an audible indication when the tamper-evident tab is opened and to retain the tamper-evident tab in the opened position. The protrusion may be configured to lift the lid when the tamper-evident tab is in the opened position.

A blank for forming a tamper evident container includes a plurality of panels connected together at fold lines configured for extending at least partially around an interior space, including a first side panel, a top panel, a second side panel and a bottom panel. A bottom flap is foldably connected to an edge of the bottom panel on the first end of the blank. A top flap is foldably connected to an edge of the top panel on the first end of the blank. The top flap includes a major flap and a minor flap. The major flap connects between the top panel and the minor flap. The major flap includes a tamper evident access feature.

The bottom flap includes a major flap and a minor flap, the major flap connecting between the bottom panel and the minor flap. The top flap includes a catch point feature and wherein the minor flap includes a trap aperture configured to catch the catch point feature of the top flap when opening a container constructed from the blank to provide a tamper evident access feature.

The invention is directed to a container having a tamper evidence collar integrally formed on the container body, wherein the tamper evidence collar comprises: an annular portion which extends circumferentially outwardly from the container body; a discontinuous skirt portion which extends vertically from the annular portion, extends substantially circumferentially about the container body; a tamper evidence tab disposed in the circumferential location of the skirt discontinuity, wherein the tab comprises: an annularly extending portion aligned with the annular portion of the collar; and a skirt portion aligned with the skirt of the collar, one or more pins that rotatably join the tab to the tamper evidence collar; and at least one frangible web which connects the tab to the tamper evidence collar prior to actuation of the tab.

A packaging for packaging a determined number of individual articles includes a packaging case and a use indicator insert, which includes a transverse plate having individual access openings for an individual article, and having, around each individual access opening, an individual precut system, which at least partially surrounds the individual access opening, each individual precut system determining, after breaking, an individual extraction opening which encompasses the individual access opening and which has at least one transverse extraction dimension which is greater than a corresponding transverse dimension of the corresponding individual access opening. The packaging also has anchoring tabs and anchoring slots for ensuring the anchoring of the use indicator insert in the packaging case.

A tamper-resistant container with tamper evident feature which includes a base and lid joined by a flexible hinge having a tamper evident tab. The base and a lid are hingedly connected to each other via a hinge part and so interlocked form-locking latched that in the closed state. The hinge consists of a flat in the open state of the package, in which a substantially U-shaped tab separating lines of weakness to the outer edge of the flat area.

A transaction card and carrier system. The system includes a panel assembly and transaction card assembly. The transaction card assembly includes a transaction card and one or more snap-off portions selectively detachable from the transaction card along a line of weakness. The transaction card assembly is anchored between at least two panels of the panel assembly along or within a seam or bind area formed by sealing the at least two panels together around or over the snap-off portion. At least one of the panels can further include one or more tamper indicating patterns, such as a starburst pattern. The transaction card assembly is adhered to the one or more tamper indicating patterns such that removal of the card ruptures the pattern.

The present disclosure relates to a tamper-evident and child-proof coupling system. The coupling system includes a first base portion, a second base portion, a slit, and a closing septum. The first base portion includes a first coupling portion. The second base portion includes a second coupling portion. The first and second coupling portions are configured to define a priming configuration of the coupling system when the first and second coupling portion are engaged to each other. The slit is defined on the first base portion or the second base portion and is configured to receive an opening device. The opening device is configured to disengage the first and second coupling portions. The closing septum is adjustable to a first or second configuration. In the first configuration, the closing septum occludes the slit. In the second configuration, the closing septum is configured to expose the slit.
