The present invention regards a container comprising a support having a base, a lateral wall and an abutment flap emerging from the lateral wall. The container comprises a closure system movable between a closed condition and open condition, a first coupling portion carried by the closure system and a second coupling portion defined on the abutment flap. The first coupling portion is movable between a first operating position in which it is disengaged from the second coupling portion and a second operating position in which it is engaged with said second coupling portion. The first coupling portion comprises a central body from which a tab emerges that is engageable with the second coupling portion; the first coupling portion defines a removable portion configured for being separated from the closure system following a first opening of the container following an engagement between said first and second coupling portions.

A container is provided including a base, a front panel joined to the base, a right panel and a left panel joined to the base, two rear flaps positionable in a closed configuration comprising a first rear flap joined to the right panel and positionable perpendicular to the right panel and a second rear flap joined to the left panel and positionable perpendicular to the left panel, a rear panel joined to the base, and a top joined to the rear panel. The closed configuration includes the top oriented atop the front panel, right panel, and left panel and the rear panel proximate the two rear flaps. The container is employable in an open configuration wherein the rear panel and top are folded away from the front panel and the two rear flaps opened to non-perpendicular angles from the right panel and left panel such that an article can be horizontally inserted into or retrieved from the container.

11731802 · 2023-08-22 ·

A unique pizza box apparatus and methods of forming and using said pizza box are disclosed. The pizza box is formed with an additional plate pocket for receiving plates therein. The pocket is connected to an inside surface of the pizza box lid and expands a distance less than that of the depth of the pizza box. On the pizza box lid is a cut or perforated plate pocket lid with a living hinge on one end and a lid tab on a substantially opposite end for grabbing and rotatably opening the plate pocket lid with respect to the pizza box lid. A pizza bumper may further be included within the box to ensure separation between a base of the plate pocket and a pizza once the pizza is placed within the box. Napkins and/or further utensils may also be placed within the plate pocket if so desired.

Food storage tray

A tray is provided for retaining a plurality of food items that includes a bottom wall portion and a sidewall portion together defining a plurality of compartments separated from each other by dividers and each configured to retain a stack of the food items. Each of the dividers is interconnected to the sidewall portion by a pair of scalloped ledges. The sidewall portion of the tray includes two side panels each including stiffening ribs extending only along a portion thereof, but not extending along an entire length thereof. The tray is configured such that, in response to a compressing force applied to the tray in a direction substantially perpendicular to the first and second side panels, the sidewall portion of the tray deflects in a direction away from the food items.
