A meal packaging and presentation system includes a base, a front panel connected to the base at a low front edge seam, a first side panel connected to the base at a first low side edge seam, a second side panel connected to the base at a second low side edge seam, a rear panel connected to the base at a low rear edge seam, a first top flap connected to the first side panel at a first top side edge seam, a second top flap connected to the second side panel at a second top side edge seam, a front top flap connected to the front panel at a top front edge seam, and a rear top flap that connects to the rear panel at a top rear edge. An interior meal chamber is formed between the base, the front panel, the first side panel, the second side panel, the rear panel, the first top flap, and the second top flap when the system is in a closed state. The system is configured to transition between the closed state and an opened presentation state through manipulation of the front panel, the first side panel, the second panel, the rear panel, the first top flap, the second top flap, the front top flap, and the rear top flap.

The present exemplary system and method relates to a feature upon the exterior of a corrugated package that allows an access secondary to the primary opening feature for the inclusion of sample materials that are added after the package has been sealed at the contents' (e.g., appliance) place of manufacture. The benefits of the invention are reduced unit operations and labor to include sample materials. Additionally, the packaging feature will deter theft of sample materials from the product to the point of sale. The theft deterrence is achieved via a tamper-evident label covering the feature after sample materials have been inserted.

A blank for forming a container includes a plurality of panels connected together at fold lines configured for extending at least partially around an interior space, including a front panel, a top panel, a back panel and a bottom panel. A first back flap, a first top flap, a first front flap, and a first bottom flap are configured to form a first side panel that is parallelogram shaped. A second back flap, a second top flap, a second front flap, and a second bottom flap are configured to form a second side panel that is parallelogram shaped and is opposite the first side panel.

A display ready container having an outer front wall panel and an inner front wall panel. The outer front wall panel has a display opening formed therein and a display edge defining at least a portion of the display opening. The inner front wall panel has a removable inner cover section disposed against the front wall panel to cover at least a portion of the display opening, and overlapping at least a portion of the display edge. An area of weakness is formed in the removable inner cover section that is configured to deform when pulled outwardly to decrease in at least one of the width and height dimensions in a desired manner to effect removal of the removable inner cover section.

The present invention relates to a support arrangement for supporting a load at an elevated position, particularly where the load can then be used for its intended purpose at an elevated position and where the weight of the load is supported. The support arrangement comprises a support structure and a weight balancing device supported by the support structure for balancing the weight of a load, the weight balancing device having a first line extending therefrom and having a distal end for engaging with a load, where the first line is extendable and retractable from the weight balancing device to enable balancing of the weight of the load at a desired elevation. The support arrangement further comprises a retractor device comprising a carrier receiving a second line where the second line is retractable and extendable from the carrier, the second line having a distal end secured to the first line at a securing location such that as the first line is extended the second line retracts onto the carrier, and conversely as the first line is retracted the second line deploys from the carrier, the retractor device further comprising a restrictor for restricting the speed of deployment of the second line from the carrier.

Containers for holding packaging, such as blister-pack packaging, can be formed from a unitary piece of paperboard or other material. The containers have an interior defined by front and rear walls, first and second sidewalls, and a container bottom. The containers also include a divider panel that separates the interior into at least two sections. Flaps having multiple apertures for receiving corners of the packaging can be attached to the first and second sidewalls and the divider wall.

The package includes sidewall panels, the sidewall panels at least partially forming an outer surface of the package, a first foot panel connected via a first fold line to a front panel of the sidewall panels, a platform panel connected via a second fold line to the first foot panel, the platform panel being configured to support at least one first consumer product within the package, a second foot panel connected via a third fold line to the platform panel, a tab on a back panel of the sidewall panels, the tab configured to retain the second foot panel, and a tear-off section defined by one or more of the sidewall panels.
