A paper container includes a body front panel (5), a body left side panel (6), a body right side panel (8), and a body back panel (7), which are contiguous through body vertical folding lines (1), (2), (3), and (4). A vertical direction sealing panel (25) is configured to form a quadrangular tubular body (26). The body vertical folding line (1) and the body vertical folding line (2) are approximately symmetrical bent lines bent toward a center of the body front panel (5), and the body vertical folding line (3) through which the body back panel and the body left side panel are contiguous with each other and the body vertical folding line (4) through which the body back panel and the body right side panel are contiguous with each other are approximately symmetrical bent lines bent toward a center of the body back panel.

A paper container with a stopper includes: a container main body (9) including a body (6) having a square tubular shape, a bottom (7), and a flat top (8); and a stopper (10) provided on the top. The stopper is positioned adjacent to a first top corner portion (11(A)) of the top. The body includes a first recessed portion (16) formed in a first body corner portion (12(A)) and surrounded by two recessed-portion forming folding line portions (14, 15) extending from a starting point (S) located at the first top corner portion or at a position slightly away from the first top corner portion, branching from the starting point (S) so as to extend toward the bottom direction, and joining together at an end point (E) positioned within a range in which the two recessed-portion forming folding line portions extend until after reaching a first bottom corner portion (13(A)).

A pouring element for a package having a base body, a polyhedrally formed flange which is designed for joining to a package sleeve and whose joining faces converge in face abutments, as well as a pouring element for a package, in which the package sleeve is correspondingly joined to the pouring element. Provision is made for receiving areas to be formed in the area of the face abutments for the fold line of the package sleeve ears, in order to prevent the package from becoming damaged during the joining process between the pouring element and the package sleeve and during the folding of the package sleeve ears and hence keep it leak-tight.

A method of applying a lid (1) onto a neck (9) of a container (10), the lid (1) having a side wall (3) extending around an axis and an end wall (2) extending transversely to said axis, comprises the following steps: —positioning the lid (1) onto the neck (9); —exerting on the end wall (2) a force directed towards the container (10), so as to level the lid (1) on the neck (9); —screwing the lid (1) onto the neck (9) by rotating the lid (1) in a screwing direction.

A device is provided that assists with equalizing air pressure within a container with the atmospheric air pressure as liquid is being poured from the container and includes one or more relatively short air tubes. The device is provided with the ability to simultaneously equalize pressure in the container while also providing a drip collection mechanism. The device may be configured for unidirectional pouring or multi-directional pouring.

A container having an outer carton and a collar. The outer carton has an outer wrap portion and an inner wrap portion each defined by a plurality of panels that cooperatively define a rectangular cubic configuration. An opening for a collar defined in at least one panel of each of the outer and inner wrap portions. The collar is attachable to the inner wrap portion and the outer wrap portion, with a portion thereof positioned between panels thereof.

Disclosed are devices, systems and methods for controlling scent delivery by a scented article for beverage containers such as box cartons. In some aspects, a scent delivery system includes a cap removably attachable to a carton container at an opening of the carton container, the cap being moveable between an open position that allows a fluid beverage within the carton container to flow outward and a closed position that prevents the beverage to flow outward; and a scented article that couples to the carton container or the cap and operable to generate a scent capable of stimulating an olfactory sensation of a user including during consumption of the beverage when the cap is in the open position, and when the cap is in closed position, a seal is created by the cap and a base region of the carton container to enclose the scented article and lock in the scent.

A lid-spout assembly for a package having a main body comprising a designated pour opening and being filled with a pourable product. The lid-spout assembly comprises at least a spout having a pouring outlet, a lid configured to selectively close and open the pouring outlet and a tethering element tethering the lid to the spout and/or the main body. The spout comprises a base frame coupling and/or configured to couple the spout to the main body about the designated pour opening and a collar carrying and/or comprising the pouring outlet and being fixed to and protruding from the base frame. The lid is moveable at least in a closed position in which the lid closes and/or seals the pouring outlet and an open position in which the lid opens the pouring outlet. The lid comprises an interaction ridge being configured to interact with the collar so as to determine a closing force with the lid being arranged in the closed position for retaining the lid in the closed position.

A package for pourable food products and method for moulding a polymeric opening portion to a packaging sheet material is provided. The package can include an opening portion and a weakening feature. In some embodiments, the opening portion can be made of a polymer composition. In some embodiments, the weakening feature has a thickness below 200 micrometers and is thinner than parts of the opening portion directly adjacent to said weakening feature. The polymer composition can include sodium sulphite particles. In some embodiments, the sodium sulphite particles have the following size characteristics: (i) 0% having a size above 75 micrometers, and (ii) an average size below 25 micrometers.

A laminated package for solid products in powder or grain form, includes a set of stiffening notches, a dispensing mouth with a seal, valves for loading inert gas, in which the lateral folds of the upper face are folded inwards under the front and rear flaps, and the lateral folds of the lower face are folded outward and folded and stuck on the lower face over the front and rear flaps, and a method for forming the package.
