Abstract:
A paperboard substrate that can be used to provide a food packaging particle is provided having a water vapor barrier layer comprising HDPE in combination with a nucleating agent which is extruded on to a paperboard substrate. The resulting substrate has sufficiently good water vapor barrier when properties that dry foods such as cereals do not require a bag or inner liner as a separate moisture barrier.
Abstract:
A carton for containing at least one article. The carton includes a plurality of panels that extends at least partially around the interior of the carton. The plurality of panels comprises a top panel, a bottom panel, a first side panel, and a second side panel. At least one article retention panel is for retaining the at least one article. The article retention panel is foldably connected to the at least one panel. The article retention panel is positioned relative to the at least one panel to contact the at least one article.
Abstract:
A guarantee closure having a closure body with a guarantee foil and a pour-out spout as well as a closure cap fitting onto the closure body. The pour-out spout is arranged on the closure body such that it may be pivoted up. The guarantee foil, by pivoting-up the pour-out spout into the pour-out position, is cut open and thus frees the passage to the pour-out spout. The closure body comprises a relief for receiving the guarantee foil and forms above the relief, by two shoulders arranged over one another and distanced from one another, a free space for receiving the lying pour-out spout. This is enclosed and held by a film-hinge material bridge which in the lying condition connects the two shoulders with a surface which seen from the outside is concave and on the upper side of the lying pour-out spout runs together to a point which defines the pivoting axis of the pour-out spout. On pivoting up the pour-out spout the film-hinge material bridge snaps into a permanent shape which is convex when viewed from the outside and thus holds the pour-out spout in the closure position.
Abstract:
The packaging container includes a container body formed from a packaging material, and a cap unit attached to a top wall of the container body. The cap unit includes a lip, a pull tab which covers a discharge opening and an inner tape which covers the discharge opening portion from a reverse side of the packaging material. Since the cap is attached to the packaging material in advance of forming the container, positioning of the container body is not required for cap attachment.
Abstract:
A packaging container that is made from a flat sheet of material or extruded material with score lines that fold into a plurality of side panels, 3 or more, forming a tubular member having a longitudinal axis. The bottom folds concave and the top folds convex forming triangular webs having apexes which join at the longitudinal axis with the side edges of the adjacent triangular webs sealed together providing structural rigidity. The webs fold inside or outside and the scores can be such that a plurality of variations can be created for different appearances of the container. Protrusions extend outward from the apex of at least some of the top and bottom web panels which provide a means for sealing. Flaps on the ends of the side panels fold and seal together either to the inside or outside. The container can be stacked and nested.
Abstract:
A closure for attachment to a carton. The closure comprises a base and a cover. The base includes a debossment or trough which facilitates adhesion of the closure to the carton, e.g. with hot melt. The surface of the carton to which the closure is being attached may have a debossment instead of or in addition to that of the closure.
Abstract:
A lid (1) for a drinks container has a mouthpiece (6) provided with a valve (2) which comprises a membrane (7) of resiliently flexible material formed generally at its center with at least one slit or other piercing (8) which is normally sealed. The membrane (7) is dished inwardly of the mouthpiece, but when suction is applied, it is caused to invert to allow liquid to be drawn through its slit(s) (8). The valve (2) may instead be provided in the top of a drinks carton or in the end of a drinking straw.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a method of providing a liquid package (2) with an opening arrangement (1) and to the opening arrangement (1) proper. A hole (3) is punched out in the material (15) of a package (2) of the type which is produced from a material web (15) or a material sheet, the hole being covered by a thin strip (4). Thereafter, the package (2) is filled and formed into its final shape. A plastic device (6)is secured on the finished package (2) so that it surrounds the strip (4) without covering it. The plastic device (6) consists of a pouring element (7) with an angled front edge (10) and a sealing element (8) with a locking angle (13). A hole is provided in the pouring element (7) wherein the strip (4) is visible in its entirety. Before distribution of the package (2)the sealing element (8)is moved over the pouring element (7) so that these enter into engagement with one another and the locking angle (13) is locked against the front edge (10) of the pouring element (7).

Abstract:
A method is described for sealing at least one end of a liquids package, in the form of a tube (1), a top having wall panels (9, 10) with an opening means (11) and a bottom (3,6) and at least some of the wall panels (9,10) of the top (8) consisting of synthetic plastics coated papers, cardboard or the like carrier material and which includes the steps of first laying flat an already formed tube (1), open at the top and bottom in a plane (22') so that at least the wall panel (10) for the opening means (11) is positioned in this plane (22'), and so that an anchoring device (15,17,18) for the handle (14,14') is positioned on a lateral edge of the laid-flat tube (1) and a handle (14,14') is injection molded onto the tube (1) so that the main plane (22') of the handle (14,14') lies in the same plane (22,22') as the laid-flat tube (1) so that the handle (14,14') is fixed in the region of the top (8) of the package and simultaneously the opening means (11) is injection molded into place, and then the tube (1) together with the opening device (11) is unfolded and its wall panels (9,10) are folded over through about 90 degrees into the plane of the top to produce a flat top (8) and synthetic plastics bridges (13) are injection molded between the thus disposed wall panels (9,10). An apparatus to accomplish this method is described and comprises an injection mold die and a counter mold die which are driven so that they move towards each other. Each die is in one piece and has recesses for the synthetic plastic bridges, opening device or handle on that surface which is towards the other die.
