Unitary blank for forming a container having a body portion with a plurality of fold lines and a cover portion. The body portion with a plurality of fold lines define a plurality of body wall portions, and each body wall portion has an upper edge. A first body wall portion includes a closure tab extending from the upper edge of the first body wall portion. The closure tab includes a closure tab flap portion and a closure tab base portion. The cover portion extends from the upper edge of a second body wall portion. The cover portion includes a cover portion flap score line extending along an upper edge of the cover portion and a release flap. A food container having a body portion and a cover portion is also provided.

A tamper evident food container 1 made from a foldable sheet material, including a base portion and a lid portion attached to the base portion. The container 1 further includes a locking tab insertable into a slot to retain the container 1 in a closed position. The container 1 further includes a release assembly for enabling release of the locking tab, the release assembly including a frangible line of weakness 15 for facilitating tearing of the release assembly, the frangible line of weakness 15 dividing the release assembly into sections 15, 17 which separate upon tearing of the line of weakness to expose the locking tab for release and opening of the container 1. As the container 1 needs to be physically damaged in order to open, a consumer is easily able to identify if their container 1 has been tampered with or opened prior to taking delivery.

A box assembly can include an exterior piece including a first middle portion, a second middle portion, a third middle portion, and a fourth middle portion; the first middle portion and the third middle portion positioned perpendicular to the second middle portion and the fourth middle portion; a plurality of insulator pads including a first side insulator pad, a second side insulator pad, and a third side insulator pad; the first side insulator pad contacting the first middle portion; the second side insulator pad contacting the first middle portion, the second middle portion, and the third middle portion; the third side insulator pad contacting the third middle portion; and an interior piece positioned within the exterior piece, the interior piece including a first side panel and a second side panel; the first side insulator pad positioned between the first side panel and the first middle portion.

A supporting structure and a packing box are provided. The supporting structure includes a plate-shaped body that has a first supporting area with at least one first through hole, a second supporting area with at least one second through hole, and a foldable area located between the first supporting area and the second supporting area. The first through hole includes a supporting portion and a passage portion in communication with the supporting portion and the second through hole. The first supporting area and the second supporting area are folded relative to each other along the foldable area so as to form an accommodating space between the first through hole and the second through hole.

A box can include a first side panel; a second side panel positioned perpendicular to the first side panel; a top panel joined to the first side panel; and a handle assembly, the handle assembly including: a handle portion attached the top panel, the handle portion including a tab at a side end of the handle portion, and a locking panel attached to the second side panel, the locking panel defining a cut pattern, the cut pattern including a first side cut and a second side cut, a flap defined between the first side cut and the second side cut, the first side cut diverging into an inner cut extending along a bottom of the flap and an outer cut defining a space below the bottom of the flap, a portion of the second side cut extending along the bottom of the flap.

A box assembly can include an exterior piece including a first middle portion, a second middle portion, a third middle portion, and a fourth middle portion; the first middle portion and the third middle portion positioned perpendicular to the second middle portion and the fourth middle portion; a plurality of insulator pads including a first side insulator pad, a second side insulator pad, and a third side insulator pad; the first side insulator pad contacting the first middle portion; the second side insulator pad contacting the first middle portion, the second middle portion, and the third middle portion; the third side insulator pad contacting the third middle portion; and an interior piece positioned within the exterior piece, the interior piece including a first side panel and a second side panel; the first side insulator pad positioned between the first side panel and the first middle portion.

Blanks for forming clamshell containers and the resulting clamshell containers are described. The clamshell containers include a tray and a lid that are hingedly connected together. The tray is liquid tight, and typically includes gussets on each corner to prevent leakage. The lid and tray can be locked via at least one locking mechanism, optionally two different locking mechanisms. A first locking mechanism involves a front panel on the tray, with an extension portion that terminates in a hook or tab. The extension portion can fold over the front panel of the lid, and the hook or tabs slide into a slit(s) on the top of the lid. An optional second locking mechanism involves lid detents and tray detents. In some embodiments, in the locked position, the lid detents are underneath the tray detents and the tray detents retain the lid detents in place until a force is applied.

The invention is a food box container and a method for operating same, the food box container comprises an open top box body pivotally connected to double-hinged top, the open top box body further defining a hollow interior configured to receive and hold food; the double-hinged top has a first hinge and second hinge that have a spaced-apart and parallel orientation to one another, the first hinge pivotally sections the double-hinged lid into a support panel and a top lid, the second hinge pivotally connects the support panel to the open top box body; the support panel further defines one or more removable caps which when opened from the support panel reveal support apertures to receive other containers of drinks, condiments and the like; and the top lid controls a second access to the hollow interior that is smaller than an access as provided by the double-hinged top.

A packaging box includes a body and a lid. The body includes a bottom surface part, a front surface part rising from the bottom surface part, and protruding pieces positioned at one side portion of the front surface part and extending from an upper edge of the front surface part. The lid includes a top surface part, a lid front surface part, lid side surface parts opposed to each other, and two lid front side joints joined to inner surfaces of both sides of the lid front surface parts. The lid front side joints have cutout portions at the upper end portion, bendable portions below the cutout portion, and a non-joint portion formed between the bendable portions and the lid front surface part, into which the distal ends of the protruding pieces can enter. The lid closed state is maintained by engagement between the protruding pieces and the bendable portions.

A brush product packaging device for receiving a brush product, in particular a toothbrush, with an application head and with a handle, comprising at least one packaging base body which is configured to form an at least substantially closed receiving region for the brush product and which is implemented at least largely of a paper material.
