The invention relates to a container (A) having two cover halves, which are outwardly and inwardly pivotable by means of hinges. Retaining hooks for locking the cover halves are arranged at the upper edges of two walls, and the cover halves have, along their sides, openings for receiving the retaining hooks. The retaining hooks are movable, the retaining hooks being movable parallel to the upper edge of the container walls from an idle position and being connected to a spring element. When the retaining hook is moved, the spring element is preloaded, the retaining hooks being spontaneously moved back by the spring force. In order to lock the cover halves, the cover halves are pivoted inward and pressed onto the retaining hooks, whereby the retaining hooks are slid toward the center of the side walls until the retaining hooks penetrate completely into the openings in the cover halves. Because of the spring force, the retaining hooks are moved back and snap in on the top side of the cover halves. Protrusions on the retaining hooks and on the underside of the cover halves are used to raise and keep raised the cover halves in the event of unlocking. The container (A) can be easily and quickly locked and unlocked.

A blank includes a front panel; a wing portion coupled to the front panel by a wing hinge, the wing portion including an attachment panel disposed opposite from the wing hinge, the attachment panel configured to couple to the front panel to at least partially form a cavity between the front panel and the wing portion; a lower telescoping panel coupled to the front panel by a lower telescoping hinge; and an upper telescoping panel coupled to the lower telescoping panel by an upper telescoping hinge, the upper telescoping panel and the lower telescoping panel configured to fold into the cavity in a closed configuration to at least partially enclose the cavity.

A food receptacle having a tray with a base, a perimeter wall extending therefrom, and a tongue extending from the perimeter wall along a longitudinal axis and a cover adapted to cover the tray. Cover has an opening adapted to receive the tongue therethrough, such that the tongue is inserted through the opening when the tray is covered by the cover. Tongue may include a protrudable portion adapted to protrude away from the longitudinal axis. When protruded, the protrudable portion is adapted to abut the cover. When the tray is covered by the cover, the protrudable portion may be protruded over the top panel to prevent the tongue from being withdrawn from the opening.

Described herein is dispensing cup for use with medicaments, which dispensing cup in use allows for the patient to (self) administer an oral medicament (tablet or capsule) without the need to come into direct (skin) contact with such medicament.

A package for food products. The package has an internal volume delimited by a bottom wall, a top wall and a peripheral border. The top wall has a pre-cut to form a peripheral portion and a central portion. The central portion is extended by a cap. The peripheral border has at least one notch forming a passage for a foolproof member during insertion of the package into a heating device.

A container is in the form of an In-Mold Labelled (IML) tube comprises a housing 302 and a lid. The lid comprises a base portion 305 to which a cap portion 307 of the lid is pivotally mounted by a hinge to allow the cap portion 307 to transition between open and closed position. A plug is inserted and attached to at least partially or fully seal an aperture formed at the base portion 305. The plug has at least one orifice 314 functioning as an egress opening through which a flowable material stored in the housing 302 can dispense. The housing 302 and lid are made as a single piece by a single injection moulding process. The plug is more rigid than each of the housing 302 and the lid for allowing the plug to lock with the lid firmly.

A silicone extruded spring strap that has the possibility to be folded around an axis parallel to its own axis of extrusion, thus creating the compression and release as of a spring. The base has a reach-in hole on its body to allow the user to reach through. The lid is the base's capping object; it is designed to cover the reach-in hole of the base. It should be designed in a way to limit the area of the remaining gaps of the base's reach-in hole. The spring strap clip designed to allow the extension of the spring during the closing motion of the lid. The extruded spring strap can store and release energy in order to displace the lid. It can be of any material that provides the appropriate stiffness to activate the lid. The retention latch is the user interface on which he acts in order to have the lid popup.

A food receptacle having a tray with a base, a perimeter wall extending therefrom, and a tongue extending from the perimeter wall along a longitudinal axis and a cover adapted to cover the tray. Cover has an opening adapted to receive the tongue therethrough, such that the tongue is inserted through the opening when the tray is covered by the cover. Tongue may include a protrudable portion adapted to protrude away from the longitudinal axis. When protruded, the protrudable portion is adapted to abut the cover. When the tray is covered by the cover, the protrudable portion may be protruded over the top panel to prevent the tongue from being withdrawn from the opening.

A tethered closure device for a beverage container, a cap element and a beverage container. It is provided that a tethered closure device for a beverage container comprises the following components: A frame device and a cap element with an at least partially connected recloseable lid element, wherein the cap element is rotatable disposed to the frame device. The tethered closure device further comprises at least two temper evident elements, wherein the first temper evident element is disposed between the cap element and the frame device and the second temper evident element is disposed between the cap element and the lid element. Furthermore, a cap element and a beverage container is provided.

A blank includes a front panel; a wing portion coupled to the front panel by a wing hinge, the wing portion including an attachment panel disposed opposite from the wing hinge, the attachment panel configured to couple to the front panel to at least partially form a cavity between the front panel and the wing portion; a lower telescoping panel coupled to the front panel by a lower telescoping hinge; and an upper telescoping panel coupled to the lower telescoping panel by an upper telescoping hinge, the upper telescoping panel and the lower telescoping panel configured to fold into the cavity in a closed configuration to at least partially enclose the cavity.
