A case for beverage containers comprising a single continuous waterproof surface having walls and a floor and defining a container space, the container space being expandable by the movement of at least one of the walls so as to expand the container space.

A box suitable for the packaging of a consumer product is formed by helically wrapping an elongated continuous strip of material around a mandrel to form a main body with a plurality of bands. In one embodiment, adjacent bands partially overlie one another to form a multi-paneled main body with an open top end and an open bottom end. An adhesive is disposed within the region of contact between adjacent bands to retain the shape of the main body. First and second sets of slots are formed in the main body to create flaps dimensioned to selectively enclose the open top and bottom ends, respectively. To define the flaps and promote pivotal articulation, the main body is also preferably provided with score lines. By adjusting the configuration of the mandrel, a customized box can be constructed that is sized to receive a consumer product with limited wasted space.

A hangable and expandable prism-shaped dispensing package comprising a base wall; a top wall having a rear edge and a front edge; at least one side expansion wall extending between said base wall and said top wall, expandable between a compacted state and an expanded state; a hanging arrangement for hanging of the dispensing package having a hanging portion which at a hanging position is disposed closer to the rear edge than the front edge; and a dispensing location configured to facilitate dispensing of sheet material therethrough. The dispensing location being disposed at a top portion of the dispensing package.

An actuatable container includes a first electrode panel and a second electrode panel, wherein the first electrode panel and the second electrode panel each comprises an electrode, an electrode insulation coating surrounding the electrode, an electrode lead, and a plurality of fold regions, the first electrode panel and the second electrode panel are each foldable along the plurality of fold regions to permit the first electrode panel and the second electrode panel to move between a first form and a second form, and the first electrode panel is electrically engageable with the second electrode panel, upon application of a voltage to the first electrode panel and the second electrode panel, to retain the first electrode panel and the second electrode panel in the second form.

The present invention relates to a box insert and a box system that uses said box insert. The box insert may have an insert bottom and four insert side walls extending from the insert bottom. A flap may extend from each insert side wall. Each flap may have a first panel connected to its respective insert side wall by a first score line, a second panel connected to the first panel by a second score line, and a third panel connected to the second panel by a second score line. The box insert may be configured inside of a box whereby one of the score lines of each flap is folded over a box edge to suspend the box insert inside of the box. A box lid may be configured over the box insert to help secure the box insert to the box.

A product shipping and display tray made from a unitary blank is provided. The tray comprises one and preferably two expandable side panel assemblies to take up additional shelf space if desired. Each side panel assembly comprises an intermediate side panel extending forward from a rear panel, an inner side panel in flat, abutting relationship to the inner facing surface of the intermediate side panel, and an outer side panel rotatably attached to the inner side panel along a front vertical edge. Each outer side panel is moveable between a first position in which the outer side panel is in a flat, abutting relationship to the intermediate side panel and a second position in which the outer side panel is rotated outwardly away from the intermediate side panel.

The present disclosure relates to a carrier apparatus primarily for carrying containers having food products therein; but secondarily for carrying containers having any type of products contained therein. Specifically, the carrier apparatus of the present invention allows a user to transport various amounts and types of containers securely, minimizing disturbance to products, such as food products, contained therein. More specifically, the carrier apparatus of the present invention comprises a first configuration for carrying a first amount of containers and a second configuration for carrying a second amount of containers.

A package for holding at least one product includes a carton and at least one insert. The carton includes a plurality of panels extending at least partially around an interior of the carton to form at least one corner of the carton. The at least one insert is at least partially disposed in the interior of the carton adjacent the at least one corner to reinforce the carton, and includes a first panel, a second panel, and an intermediate portion between the first panel and the second panel. Each of the first panel and the second panel is attached to a respective panel of the plurality of panels and the intermediate portion is free from attachment to the plurality of panels.

A product package includes a receiving space (1a), a covering film (7), an inner lining (6) and a body part (2) created out of a single blank. The body part (2) includes walls (2a, 2b, 2c, 8), a bottom (3) and a rim portion (4) as well as a plurality of slots (5) for shaping the receiving space (1a). The rim portion (4) of the body part (2) is a continuous, seamless and planar portion formed out of the same said blank and interconnecting the walls (2a, 2b, 2c, 8) of the body part (2).

A display package for a consumer product includes a base, a surround window positioned upon the base, and a top cover positioned upon the surround window. Each of the front, back, and two opposed side walls include a respective edge defining an upper perimeter of each of the walls and each of the front, back, and two opposed side walls include a respective edge defining a lower perimeter of each of the walls, wherein these upper and lower edges are constructed such that when the surround window is positioned upon the base and the top cover is positioned upon the surround window the front exposed surface area is greater than the back exposed surface area and wherein when the surround window is removed from between the base and top cover, the edges of the top cover are constructed to mate in a close fitting relationship with the edges of the base.
