At least one side end flap is foldably connected to one of the front panel and the back panel, and the front panel, the back panel, and the at least one side end flap cooperate to form an open top of the carton for accessing the interior of the carton. The at least one side end flap has a first locking feature and the other of the front panel and the back panel has a second locking feature, engagement of the first locking feature and the second locking feature secures the at least one side end flap to the other of the front panel and the back panel.

A display container (200) includes one or more sidewalls (102,103,107) defining a receiving recess (207). A dispenser (201) can define a front side of the display container. Where this is the case the dispenser has a height (208) less than the one or more sidewalls. The dispenser includes an aperture (324). A plurality of sample product, such as disposable gloves (210) can be placed within the dispenser. One or more packages (203,204,205,206) of product corresponding to the sample product can be situated within the receiving recess.

A blank for being repeatably assembled into a box configuration without the use of adhesives. The blank has a bottom panel, a side panel foldably attached to the bottom panel, an end panel foldably attached to the bottom panel, and a locking structure configured to secure the side panel and the end panel in respective orthogonal positions with respect to the bottom panel. The locking structure includes an overlay panel foldably attached to the end panel and foldable toward an overlying position in which it overlies a portion of the side panel. The locking structure also includes a slot in the bottom panel, a flap foldably attached to the bottom panel and extending into the slot, and a tab foldably attached to the overlay panel for being lockingly received in the slot to secure the overlay panel in the overlying position.

A leakproof and liquid-tight packaging box of corrugated board, which box is erected mechanically using glueing as an aid. What is essential in the invention is that the corner surfaces of the structurally strong, torsionally rigid, leakproof and liquid-tight packaging box stackable one on top of another are folded and glued to the outer surface of the vertical surface of the short side. In addition, it comprises an inward-formed cone structure of the vertical surface of the long side of the box, and a rigid and load-resistant beam structure is formed on all sides of the packaging box.

A carton with a removable lid, the carton may include a floor panel; a plurality of side panels extending about a periphery of the bottom panel. The one or more of the side panels may include one or more tabs extending from an upper edge thereof. The carton may further include foldable corner gussets extending between adjacent side panels. The bottom panel, side panels, and foldable corner gussets may be configurable to form a compartment region; and a removable lid. The removable lid may include a lid panel and one or more slots formed in the lid panel, wherein the lid panel may be configured to cover the compartment region, and wherein the one or more slots may be sized, shaped, and positioned such that when the removable lid is installed atop the compartment region, the one or more tabs align with the one or more slots and are received therethrough.

In a square cover plate, a one-piece folding blank has a square cutaway that is rotated by 45 relative to the square shape of the cover plate. This square cutaway is arranged concentrically to a convex, octagonal groove-line and scoring-line structure. In this case, groove lines and scoring lines alternate respectively in such a way that the scoring lines wind up parallel to the outside edges of the cover plate, and the groove lines wind up parallel to the outside edges of the square cutaway. From the center of the scoring lines, in each case perpendicular to the scoring line, a flap separation cut up to the respective corner of the inside square cutaway is inserted into the cover plate. As an alternative, a flap main separation cut is inserted in the direction of the center of the respectively opposite scoring line and perpendicular to this scoring line in the cover plate from the respective corner of the inside square cutaway. This flap main separation cut branches at a bifurcation point into two flap free-position separation cuts at a point along the stretch between the respective corner of the inside square cutaway and the center of the respectively opposite scoring line, which cuts run symmetrically to one another to the axis of the flap main separation cut from the bifurcation point up to the respective scoring line.
