An easy-tear-open and tamper-evident container including: a container body having a first convex loop on a periphery of an opening thereof; a lid having a second convex loop for engaging with the first convex loop, where a loop of tear line is provided on a topmost surface of the second convex loop, and the loop of tear line is divided into a section of breakable line and a section of broken line; and a spacer part being disposed below a local area of the topmost surface of the second convex loop that bears the section of broken line to make the local area bent up to form an force application part.

Tamper-evident features for containers. A tamper-evident film is target printed onto a sheet material that is thermoformable. The sheet is thermoformed into a container base or lid having a desired shape, such that the tamper-evident film is positioned in a desired area. A container lid is disposed on the container base, and heat sealed to a rim or edge of the container base. The heat sealing activates an adhesive of the tamper-evident film, and when the container lid is removed or separated from the container base, a first portion of the tamper-evident film remains on the container lid and a second portion remains on the container base. The separation of the tamper-evident film provides an indication of tampering.

The invention relates to a package comprising a hollow body, a lid joined to the hollow body by a hinge, and a protective cover (that can be moved between a closed position in which it covers the lid and an open position in which it is separated from the hollow body and forms, with a coupling device, a lever arm coupled to the lid, with the coupling device being able to assume a retracted configuration when the cover is in the closed position, and a deployed configuration when the cover is in the open position. The invention also relates to a corresponding unpackaging process.

A tamper evident container includes a cover with a first interlocking flange with a first tab for opening the container and a first extension joined to the first tab along a first frangible score line, a base with a second interlocking flange with a second tab for opening the container and a second extension joined to the second tab along a second frangible score line, a rim extending around a perimeter of the base, the rim having a flat portion connected to an outer wall, and a flange portion extending from the outer wall portion, wherein a position of the flat portion and the flange portion correspond to a sheet line, and wherein the first and second interlocking flanges, when securely fastened together, prevent access to the first and second tabs, and require more force to separate than to sever the first and second extensions along the frangible score lines.

The invention relates to a package comprising a hollow body, a lid joined to the hollow body by a hinge, and a protective cover (that can be moved between a closed position in which it covers the lid and an open position in which it is separated from the hollow body and forms, with a coupling device, a lever arm coupled to the lid, with the coupling device being able to assume a retracted configuration when the cover is in the closed position, and a deployed configuration when the cover is in the open position. The invention also relates to a corresponding unpackaging process.

The tamper evident container includes a base with a base hinge panel and a lid with a lid hinge panel. A hinge connects the panels. A frangible line extends from an edge of the lid hinge panel to a first point on the panel and then outwardly to the hinge. The frangible line crosses the hinge and extends inwardly to a second point on the base hinge panel. From the second point the frangible line extends to an edge of the base hinge panel. When the container is initially sealed, the frangible line separates upon the application of an upwardly directed force to a first portion of the lid hinge panel while a second portion of the lid hinge panel is held in a fixed position or moved downwardly. The separation of the frangible line creates two grasping portions that can be used to pull the lid from the base.

A pouch fitment (10) is provided and comprises a base (12) which is attachable to a pouch and includes a dispensing spout (20). The fitment further comprises a closure (14) for closing the spout. The closure is non-releasably associated with the base.

A. tamper evident container includes a cover having a first interlocking flange with a first tab for opening and closing the container and a first extension joined to the first tab along a frangible score line, a base having a second interlocking flange with a second tab for opening and closing the container and a second extension joined to the second tab along a frangible score line, the first extension including one or more first interlocking elements and the second extension including one or more second interlocking elements, where the first and second interlocking elements, when securely fastened together, prevent access to the first and second tabs, and require more force to separate than to sever the first and second extensions along the frangible score lines.

A tamper evident container includes a cover comprising a first interlocking flange with a first inner tab and a first outer tab separated by a first severable line and a base comprising a second interlocking flange with a second inner tab and a second outer tab separated by second severable line, where the first and second interlocking flanges are configured to be fastened together and the container is configured to be opened by separating the first and second inner tabs from the respective first and second outer tabs while one of the first and second outer tabs remains attached to the container and another of the first and second outer tabs is separated from the container and remains attached to the one of the first and second outer tabs.

The present invention is directed to containers and packaging that incorporate novel tamper evident features that make prominent the evidence of tamper. In particular, the novel tamper prominent containers of the present invention comprise newly designed tamper prominent images, i.e., prominent continuity control (PCC) images. Additionally, the present invention provides novel methods of increasing prominence of the evidence of tamper with a container, e.g., of consumer goods, by incorporating prominent continuity control (PCC) images integrated with a button locking assembly that must be removed to open a locked container making prominent the evidence of tamper through clear visualization in the PCC image, e.g., prominently displaying an image of a broken lock after full fracture and removal of the button locking assembly.
