A vacuum formed, tamper resistant container resists deformation of the sides thereof that might otherwise permit access to contents of the container without removal of the lid. Downward protruding lid features reinforce the wall of the container base, and buttress features included in the rim of the base extend from a base flange diagonally downward and inward to the inner rim of a recessed shelf, thereby resisting downward rotation of the wall beneath the lid protruding features. In embodiments, attachment tabs surrounded by frangible boundaries are incorporated in the lid and attached to the base by living hinges, such that removal of the lid requires breaking of the frangible boundaries and detachment of the lid from the attachment tabs. Pucker elements associated with the attachment tabs can cause the attachment tabs to pivot away from the lid when the attachment tabs are detached from the lid.

A method of thermoforming a container includes forming a lid having a lid rim, and forming a base including a base rim. The method also includes forming a foldable section that joins the lid rim and the base rim and includes a lid hinge panel extending from the lid rim to a hinge and a base hinge panel extending from the base rim to the hinge. The method also includes forming a frangible line that extends from an edge of the lid hinge panel, across a portion of the lid hinge panel to a first point, from the first point across the lid hinge panel to the hinge, across the hinge, across the base hinge panel from the hinge to a second point on the base hinge panel, and from the second point across a portion of the base hinge panel to an outside edge of the base hinge panel.

In an embodiment, the invention comprises a container apparatus with a lateral stability rail system. At least one rail extends within the lid portion and at least one track extends through the base portion. The rail terminates in a tooth and the track terminates in a pocket. When the container is in a hingedly closed position, the at least one rail nests within the at least one track and the at least one tooth nests within the at least one pocket.

A snap action container includes: a cover plate and a container body; wherein the cover plate is rotatably connected to the container body by a rotation shaft, and covered on the container body; an elastomer receiving chamber is arranged at a position, corresponding to the rotation shaft, on the container body, an elastomer being inclinedly disposed in the elastomer receiving chamber, and one end of the elastomer being abutted against the rotation shaft; and when the cover plate is covered on the container body, the cover plate drives the rotation shaft to rotate, such that the rotation shaft presses against the elastomer to cause the elastomer to be subjected to elastic deformation.

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a biological tissue packaging system, as well as a transport system, and, in some embodiments, comprises a first package, a secondary package, and a tertiary package. Each of the first, second, and tertiary packages is sterilized prior to packaging of a biological tissue therein. The first package comprises a pouch, and a first tray and a first lid configured for removable snap-fit attachment to one another so as to form a clamshell container. The secondary package is configured to contain the first package and interlock therewith. The tertiary package is configured to contain the secondary package and interlock therewith.

A package includes a container and a lid. The container may include a tamper evident feature, a child resistant feature, or both.

A lid, a disposable cup with the lid, and a blending machine for use with the lid and cup which is particularly well-suited for use in a self-service blending environment where material is initially provided in unblended form in the disposable cup, is blended in the disposable cup, and the disposable cup is used by the end user during consumption of the material. The lid is designed to allow for a blade assembly of the blending machine to pass through the lid and into the cup without it having to be removed.

A beverage cup for containing a beverage includes a beverage ingredient container installed in the beverage cup for placing beverage ingredients, and a cup lid fastened to the mouth of the beverage cup. The beverage ingredient container has an upper cup and a lower cup concavely and downwardly formed for placing the beverage ingredients, and a beverage through hole formed at the bottom of the upper cup. The cup lid includes a cover, a straw protruded from the cover, and a straw cap connected to an edge of cup lid by a strip for covering the straw, so that the straw cap can cover a straw mouth to prevent beverage leakage and keep the straw mouth clean. When drinking, the beverage enters into the beverage ingredient container through the beverage through hole and flows together with the beverage ingredient towards the straw to achieve the effect of drinking the beverage together with the beverage ingredients. Since the beverage cup reduces the use of straws, plastic films, and waste that is uneasy to recycle, this invention will make the environment healthier and cleaner.

A tamper-resistant air-permeable container includes a cover having a bottom that is formed with a first wall having primary troughs and primary blocks and formed with a retaining engagement portion; and a box including a receiving space and having a second wall that is provided with a first step part lower than the second wall and a second step part lower than the first step part to define forming therebetween a retaining engagement groove. The second wall is formed with secondary troughs, each including a curved section, such that each of the secondary troughs has a curved configuration. When the cover is combined with the box, the retaining engagement portions of the cover are fit into and retained in the retaining engagement groove. The primary troughs and the secondary troughs form passages in communication with the receiving space.

A container and a method for forming a container that has a base flange on a base, and a lid flange on a lid. One or both of the base flange and lid flange have a relief pattern. For each flange that has the relief pattern, the relief pattern imparts rigidity in the flange to resist flexure of the flange relative to the portion of the container (the base or lid) to which the flange is attached.
