The invention relates to a paper and plastic combined packaging box, which is flip-type packaging box, comprising a box cover cardboard, a box body cardboard portion and an integrated plastic frame formed by injection molding. The box body cardboard portion is formed as an enclosure by a plurality of cardboards, and has an upper edge. The integrated plastic frame formed by injection molding is configured to connect the box cover cardboard and the box body cardboard portion. The integrated plastic frame is comprised of a box body plastic member and a box cover plastic member which are connected through a plastic hinge. The box body plastic member is comprised of a main body of box body plastic member arranged at a gap between cardboards of the box body cardboard portion and an upper edge plastic member which is wrapped at the upper edge of the box body cardboard portion. The box cover plastic member is wrapped at the periphery of the box cover cardboard. The upper edge plastic member and the box cover plastic member are in a fastening connection to implement sealing of the packaging box. Compared with the prior art, the invention saves plastic, has high strength, high tightness and various shapes, and is low in cost.

A container configured to hold one or more units of a product is provided. The container may comprise a lid and a base. The lid and/or the base may be constructed from a pulp derived from a plant material. For example, the pulp derived from the plant material may be a wood pulp material. A related method is also provided.

The present invention provides an anti-theft container having a body, a first cover, a second cover, a pulling structure, and an accommodating recess. The body comprising a convex fastening portion; the first cover comprising a plurality of first coupling portions and a tab; the second cover comprising a top, a bottom, a groove portion, a plurality of second coupling portions and a tear line; the tear line enclosing a shaped area along the second cover and the pulling structure is able to be randomly disposed within the circumferential region. When the convex fastening portion is inserted to the retaining groove portion relative to each other, the convex fastening portion is disabled to be separated from the retaining groove portion, an external force is required to be applied to the pulling structure in order to lift the pulling structure along with the circumferential region so as to be separated from the second cover. When the first cover combined with a plurality of the second coupling portions of the second cover through a plurality of the first coupling portions, the tab which needs to be applied to an external force in order to lift the first cover and separated from the second cover.

A tamper-evident container including: a container body having a first hollow convex loop on a periphery of an opening thereof; and a lid having a second hollow convex loop and a force application structure, where the second hollow convex loop is used to engage with the first hollow convex loop, and a loop-shaped breakable line is provided on a loop-shaped top surface of the second hollow convex loop; where, when an illegitimate user applies a lifting force on any local area of the second hollow convex loop of the lid to make the local area moving upward with a displacement exceeding a threshold, a corresponding local area of the loop-shaped breakable line will be broken to show that the tamper-evident container has been tampered with.

An apparatus for dispensing a single box for containing foodstuffs includes a housing, a lift subassembly, and a transfer subassembly. The housing at least partially defines an inner area. The lift subassembly is coupled to the housing and disposed at least partially within the inner area. The lift subassembly includes a nest configured to support a plurality of boxes disposed in a stack and translate with respect to the housing in a first direction and a second direction opposite the first direction. The transfer subassembly is coupled to the housing and disposed at least partially within the inner area. The transfer subassembly includes a vacuum suction cup. The vacuum suction cup is configured to operatively engage a first box of the plurality of boxes to remove the first box from the stack and pivot the first box about a rotational axis to a surface outside of the inner area.

Smooth reach-in orifice acting as a cover or lid. A set of structural ribs are placed around the reach-in orifice acting as a dispensing flip-lid. Structural ribs are placed to the left and right of the orifice and blended with the base sealing rib. The outer wall is an offset wall from the inner reach-in sealing rib, inter structural ribs are connecting both outer and inner profiles. The apparent latch hole design is the existence of a hole on the cover located closed to the front tab, leading to the cover's latching mechanism, a fastening feature allowing the cover to snap itself onto the base. The living hinge is thicker at the outside edge of the hinge. The front lifting tab is a thin ledge, with a width between ⅔ of the full width of the part front face, extending 1.5 to 3 mm off the overall body of the cover.

Embodiments of a reusable straw caddy include a hand-held container and dispenser for a plurality of cleaned straight reusable drinking straws. The caddy provides top and bottom portions interlocked once the bottom portion has been filled with cleaned straws. Embodiments provide top portion windows or a translucent top portion giving the user a quick count on how many cleaned straws remain in the caddy as cleaned straws are dispensed. Embodiments of the reusable straw caddy can be manufactured by three-dimensional printing or injection molding.

A cover for a container that includes a lid portion and a collar element. The lid portion having a main body section surrounded by a peripheral sealing shoulder. The collar element having a peripheral collar sealing shoulder that includes a collar groove and wherein the lid portion is connected to the collar portion through a hinge element. The lid portion, collar element and hinge portion are formed as a unitary structure and the lid portion articulates from an open positon in which it is spaced apart from the collar element to a closed position wherein the peripheral bead sealing shoulder of the lid portion engages with the peripheral collar sealing shoulder of the collar element.
