Carton blanks and cartons having a tear strip dispensing feature defined thereon are described herein. The tear strip dispensing feature allows a first portion of the carton to be removed from a second portion of the carton. The first portion of the carton includes a carrying handle allowing the first portion to function as a smaller, standalone carton. The second portion of the carton is operative to function as a dispensing tray. Both the first portion and the second portion of the carton may fit into a relatively small space, such as, for example, the space between shelves in a refrigerator.

A packing box enables easy release a slit lock in which slits in an insertion piece of an openable lid engage side flaps connected to openable lid side edge portions of lid side members, even if the interior of a box body of the packing box is tightly filled with a product. The top face lid of the packing box includes a part that can be torn along a tear inducing line extending from the flap opposing edge of the top face lid to the front end edge of the top face lid. This part is held and torn along the tear inducing line by a human hand, and is raised up with respect to the top face lid to form the slit lock release gripping piece that can be used for releasing engagement created by the slit lock engaging structure, so that the engagement by the slit lock engaging structure, which is the engagement between the insertion piece and the side flap in the slit on the side in the lateral direction of the insertion piece where the slit lock release gripping piece is formed, can be easily released even if the interior of the box body of the packing box is tightly filled.

A wraparound case comprises: a case main body including a top face panel and a bottom face panel that face each other, a front face panel and a back face panel that face each other, a pair of side face panels that face each other, and an insertion flap that extends out from the top face panel and overlaps with the front face panel; a hinge section that is formed between the top face panel and the back face panel; a slit that is formed along a ridgeline between the top face panel and each of the pair of side face panels; and tear sections that couple a front face panel side and a back face panel side of the top face panel with the pair of side face panels, and that are torn when the top face panel is opened.

A carton for holding a product is disclosed. The carton comprises a plurality of panels that extends at least partially around an interior of the carton. The plurality of panels comprises a front panel, a back panel, a first side panel, and a second side panel. The carton further comprises a hinge in at least one of the plurality of panels and a reclosable lid pivotably attached to the carton. The reclosable lid comprises a first intermediate panel foldably connected to at least one of the plurality of panels and a second intermediate panel foldably connected to the first intermediate panel. The first intermediate panel is positioned in face-to-face contact with the second intermediate panel. The reclosable lid is pivotable at the hinge between a closed position preventing access to the interior of the carton and an open position allowing access to the interior of the carton.

A carton for holding a plurality of containers. The carton can comprise a plurality of panels that extends at least partially around an interior of the carton. The plurality of panels comprises a top panel. An insert can comprise a central panel, an inner end flap foldably connected to the central panel, and at least one crown guard flap foldably connected to the inner end flap adjacent a crown guard opening in the insert. The central panel can comprise a stop edge adjacent the crown guard opening, and the crown guard flap can comprise a first portion foldably connected to the inner end flap and a second portion foldably connected to the first portion. The top panel can at least partially overlap the central panel, and the second portion of the crown guard flap can be disposed adjacent the stop edge of the central panel.

A shipping container convertible into a display configuration at a point of sale comprises a top wall, a bottom wall, side walls and end walls all of which are foldably joined to one another to form an interior space to receive product having a predetermined height. Each of the respective side walls includes a respective pair of spaced apart slots formed therein. Each of the end walls includes a respective minor top flap being foldably joined thereof. The respective minor top flaps include a pair of locking tabs each of which is engaged with the corresponding slots. A headspace is formed within the interior space of the container so as to compensate for the height of the products when the container is flipped on its side for displaybility at the point of sale and permits a user to remove product from various layers of containers stacked upon one another.

A modified Regular Slotted Container (RSC) style carton is configured to be easily shipped in electronic commerce while allowing a consumer to use the carton as a storage container for bagged pet food. The packaging carton is a modified regular slotted container (RSC) featuring a full or partial die cut perforation design forming a lid that facilitates converting the carton into a re-usable storage carton for a bag of pet food. The perforation design allows for the consumer to separate portions of the lid from the carton along the perforations. Once the carton is opened, the die cut or partial die cut flap created along the perforations is preferably used as a lid for the pet food. The carton provides many advantages, such as establishing protective packaging, accommodating dedicated e-commerce identifiers, and providing additional ways to use and store a bagged pet food product without having to purchase alternative containers.

A wraparound case comprises: a case main body including a top face panel and a bottom face panel that face each other, a front face panel and a back face panel that face each other, a pair of side face panels that face each other, and an insertion flap that extends out from the top face panel and overlaps with the front face panel; a hinge section that is formed between the top face panel and the back face panel; a slit that is formed along a ridgeline between the top face panel and each of the pair of side face panels; and tear sections that couple a front face panel side and a back face panel side of the top face panel with the pair of side face panels, and that are torn when the top face panel is opened.

Problem to be Solved

Provided is a packing box that enables to easily release a slit lock in which slits of an insertion piece of an openable lid engage with side flaps connected to openable lid side edge portions of lid side members, even if the interior of a box body of the packing box is tightly filled with a product.

Solution

The top face lid (540) of the packing box (500) includes a part that can be torn along the tear inducing line (543) extending from the flap opposing edge (541) of the top face lid to the front end edge (542) of the top face lid (540), and the part is held and torn along the tear inducing line (543) by a human hand and is raised up with respect to the top face lid (540) to form the slit lock release gripping piece (544) that can be used for releasing engagement created by the slit lock engaging structure (LK), so that the engagement by the slit lock engaging structure (LK), which is the engagement between the insertion piece (550) and the side flap (530) in the slit (SL22) on the side in the lateral direction of the insertion piece (550) where the slit lock release gripping piece (544) is formed, can be easily released even if the interior of the box body of the packing box is tightly filled.

Systems for packaging container(s) is disclosed. The system comprises a carton having a storage configuration where the carton is substantially flat and an assembled configuration. The carton comprises a bottom box, a lid coupled to the bottom box, a first flap extending from the first sidewall of the bottom box, and a second flap extending from the second sidewall of the bottom box. The first and second flaps define a set of cavities. The system also comprises an insert configured to be disposed within the bottom box of the carton. The insert has a storage configuration where the insert is substantially flat and an assembled configuration. The insert defines at least one cavity dimensioned to house at least one container.
