Packaging is provided including an upper lid having a handle disposed within a channel of a surface of the upper lid and vertically movable within the channel. A lower base box is coupled to the handle via a strap, such that a lifting force imparted to the handle lifts the lower base box when the strap becomes taut. The vertical movement of the handle within the channel overcomes any slack in the strap such that the handle does not contact an upper vertical surface in the upper lid, but a gapless interface between the upper lid and lower base box is maintained during lifting of the packaging. The strap is detachable from the handle and from the base box, such that it may be removed in order to open packaging by lifting the lid off of the base box.

A beverage container can comprise a container housing for housing an internal liquid container. The container can include first and second shields extending from panel sections of the housing that interlock over the container. The shields can be spaced between a hand hold opening through a top portion of the container housing and the internal liquid container. A gap can be provided between the shields and hand hold opening.

A container configured to hold one or more items for transportation. The container can comprise: a base; two opposing end walls; two opposing sidewalls; and a lid. The opposing side walls each can comprise a side flap with an opening. The lid can comprise two opposing top panels and two handle flaps. Each of the two opposing top panels can be foldably coupled to a different one of the two opposing end walls. Each of the two handle flaps can be foldably coupled to a different one of the two opposing top panels. When the container is in a closed configuration, a handle can be formed by the two handle flaps and comprise two engagement end tabs located at two opposing ends of the handle. The handle can be removably coupled to the side flaps by the engagement end tabs engaging with the openings of the side flaps. The handle can be configured to be rotatable while the engagement end tabs remain engaged with the openings of the side flaps. Other embodiments are disclosed.

A carton for holding a plurality of articles. The carton comprises a plurality of panels that extends at least partially around an interior of the carton and a plurality of end flaps respectively foldably connected to respective panels of the plurality of panels. The plurality of end flaps are at least partially overlapped with respect to one another to thereby at least partially form a closed end of the carton. The carton also can comprise at least one article protection flap foldably connected to at least one end flap of the plurality of end flaps for engaging at least one article of the plurality of articles. The at least one article protection flap extends from the closed end at least partially into the interior of the carton.

A roller assembly includes at least one roller, an L-shaped board and at least one L-shaped fixing member. The L-shaped fixing member is fixed on the L-shaped board; and the roller is fixed and connected on the L-shaped board through the L-shaped fixing member. A package includes a box and the roller assembly. The box contains at least one hole and the roller protrudes from the hole. Further, the package is used as follows. The box is opened and the matter to be packaged is put into the box. Then the roller assembly is placed into the box, and the roller assembly is sandwiched between the box and the matter. Next, the roller(s) is aligned with the hole(s). Subsequently, the box and the matter are compressed to make the roller(s) protrude from the hole(s). Finally, the box are sealed from the bottom surface to complete the package.

Fastener-free packaging includes a plurality of main panels, each main panel comprising an upper panel, a central panel, and a lower panel; at least one attaching connection feature located on at least one lower panel; and at least one receiving connection feature located on at least one lower panel, wherein each lower panel is connected to at least two other lower panels by an attaching connection feature connecting to a receiving connection feature such that all lower panels are connected together thereby forming a bottom.

A carton for containing at least one article. The carton includes a plurality of panels at least partially forming an interior of the carton. The plurality of panels includes a top panel. The carton includes an article protection flap foldably connected to at least one panel of the plurality of panels. The article protection flap is moveable between a first position that is substantially parallel to the top panel and a second position wherein the article protection flap is folded relative to the top panel. The at least one access feature in the top panel is for positioning the article protection flap from the first position to the second position.

A carrier includes a front portion with a first plurality of panels and a back portion with a second plurality of panels. The first plurality of panels at least partially surrounds a front interior space for receiving at least one container and includes a front panel, a front central panel, and at least one front side panel. The second plurality of panels at least partially surrounds a back interior space for receiving at least one container and includes a back panel, a back central panel, and at least one back side panel. The front central panel and the back central panel are separably connected at a line of weakening and are at least partially in face-to-face contact in a first configuration of the carrier, the carrier is positionable to a second configuration wherein the front portion and the back portion are at least partially separated at the line of weakening.

A basket-type carrier formed from a single blank (1) of foldable sheet material. The carrier (4) comprises a pair of handle panels (10, 60), a pair of bottom panels (20, 70), a pair of bottom reinforcement panels (15, 65), a front panel (30), a back panel (80), side panels (31, 32, 33, 34, 81, 82, 83, 84), side reinforcement panels (21, 22, 71, 72), side flaps (35, 36, 85, 86), interior partition panels (37, 38, 87, 88), and interior partition attachment flaps (39, 89). The carrier is collapsed and expanded by means of an umbrella-type mechanism wherein side flaps (35, 36, 85, 86) connected to side panels (32, 34, 82, 84) and to interior partition panels (37, 87) slide up and down between the handle panels (10, 60). This positions front, back, side, and bottom panels in either the collapsed position with these panels folded against the handle panels, flattening the carrier for storage, or in the expanded position with these panels pulled away from the handle panels, expanding the carrier to receive articles.

A one-piece blank and preassembly for constructing a container having an internal support structure includes a bottom panel, a wall panel or combination panel, and an auxiliary panel connected to the wall panel or combination panel. The auxiliary panel and the wall or combination panel are configured so that portions of the auxiliary panel automatically change state from co-planar to three-dimensional upon manipulation of the wall panel or combination panel to form the container.
