According to a first aspect of the present teachings there is provided a partially-assembled carton for the sealed containment of food, the partially-assembled carton comprising a base panel and a rear panel, wherein the base panel and the rear panel are substantially rectangular; and a first side panel extending between the base panel and the rear panel and a second side panel extending between the base panel and the rear panel, wherein the first and second side panels are substantially triangular. At least one of the base panel, the rear panel, the first side panel and the second side panel comprises a first portion hingedly connected to another one of the base panel, the rear panel, the first side panel and the second side panel, and a second portion hingedly connected to a further one of the base panel, the rear panel, the first side panel and the second side panel. The first portion and the second portion are joined to one another at a first seam. The first seam is adhesively secured.

A tamper evident carton. The tamper evident carton may include a floor panel; side panels extending about a periphery of the floor panel; corner gussets extending between adjacent side panels, wherein the bottom panel, side panels, and corner gussets may be configurable to form a compartment region; first and second lid flaps extending from an uppermost edge of their respective side panels forming first and second moveable joints, respectively, therebetween, and the first and second lid flaps may each include an interlocking feature, such that the first and second lid flaps may interlock with one another when in a folded closed configuration; third and fourth lid flaps extending from an uppermost edge of their respective side panels forming third and fourth moveable joints, respectively, therebetween, and the third and fourth lid flaps may each include an interlocking feature, such that the third and fourth lid flaps may interlock with one another when in a folded closed configuration.

The present application relates to a folded packaging container structure, and a bottom folding-sealing device and process, including: a folded packaging body, which forms a cavity for accommodating a object after being folded; an upper opening, which is located on the folded packaging body, at which a cap is provided at least after the cavity is loaded with the object; a folded part A and a folded part B, which are folded and contacted with each other; a front surface of the folded part A and a front surface of the folded part B are provided as corresponding front surfaces of the folded packaging body and are located between the bottom part and the upper opening; at least a first side surface and a second side surface located between the bottom part and the upper opening are provided between the front surfaces.

A wedge shaped container formed from a folded web of flexible material. The container comprises a base (1), a rear wall (2) connected to the base, and a pair of upstanding side walls decreasing in height from the rear wall to the opposite end of the base. Each side wall is formed of two side wall panels (4, 6) connected at an edge of the base and connected by a hinge joint. From a fold-flat configuration, folding of the rear wall (2) away from the base (1) causes the side wall panels (4, 6) to be folded inwardly into the erected configuration. The container may have an integral lid (8). The invention also extends to a method of making a blank using a sequence of cuts to create unsupported file regions.

The present invention is a folded box that is made from a single stamped blank of paperboard. When folded, a box is formed that contains both a food trough for holding food and a beverage rail for holding beverage cups. The paperboard blank has a base panel. A front panel, a rear panel and two side panels are coupled to the base panel. Slots are formed in the side panels. A cup receptacle panel extends from the rear panel. Locking tabs extend from the cup receptacle panel. The folded box is configurable between a folded configuration and an unfolded configuration. When in the unfolded configuration, the locking tabs on the cup receptacle panel extend through the slots in the side panels, therein mechanically interconnecting the cup receptacle panel to the side panels.

Containment systems, containers, and methods can be comprised of first through fourth sidewalls; a bottom wall connected to the first through fourth sidewalls; and first through fourth lid flaps connected to respective first through fourth sidewalls via respective first through fourth hinges. A single sheet of paperboard can make up the sidewalls, the bottom wall, and the lid flaps. In a fully open configuration, the third lid flap can be folded at the third hinge such that a flap body thereof is adjacent to the third sidewall, the fourth lid flap can be folded at the fourth hinge such that a flap body thereof is adjacent to the fourth sidewall, and a flap wing of each of the third lid flap and the fourth lid flap can be under the bottom wall such that each of the flap wings is against the bottom wall and maintained under the bottom wall.
