Abstract: A carryout carton for food products comprises a single tray element with a pair of integral lid members. A first locking means is provided for securing one lid member to the bottom wall of the tray and a second locking means is provided for securing the second lid to the first lid. The first locking means comprises a first locking tab formed by a flap element attached to an extension of the front wall of the first lid and a first locking slot formed in the bottom wall of the tray. The second locking means comprises a second locking tab formed by an extension of the front wall of the second lid and a second locking slot formed in the front wall of the first lid member.

Abstract: A tray type container constructed usually of a cardboard, corrugated paperboard, synthetic resin sheet or the like to transport, display and storing various products, especially a unit number of bottled, canned or cardboard packed products, for instance a bevarage, and a blank plate therefor. The container comprises essentially a generally rectangular bottom panel, two pairs of opposite upright side panels connected with the bottom panel, and a pair of upper strips, each being connected to concerned side panel to partially close an open top defined by the four side panels.

Abstract: A self locking container formed of a series of side, bottom, and end walls, all integrally folded together, and incorporating one or a pair of covers, the container generally formed of a unitary blank of paperboard or corrugated material, that may be folded into its usable configuration. Intermediate each end wall and side wall are bellows flaps, that fold contiguously into adjacency against the outer surface of each of their respective end walls, during folding of the carton, and a connecting flap formed along the upper edge of each end wall folds overlying the upper edges of the disposed proximate bellows flaps, to interlock them into position, for forming the body or lower portion of the container.

Abstract: A one-piece corrugated fiberboard blank and the triple-end container assembled therefrom wherein the blank includes a rectangular bottom panel with a side panel hingedly attached to each of the two opposite sides thereof. Hingedly attached to the remaining two opposite sides of the bottom panel are first, exterior end panels, each having a hand-hold slot formed therein. Second, intermediate end panels sized in width to extend approximately half way across the first end panel in the assembled container are hingedly attached to the opposite ends of each side panel. Each intermediate end panel has a cutout complementary to the hand-hold slot in the first end panel and includes an extension hingedly attached thereto that folds back upon the intermediate end panel to form the third, innermost end panel.

Abstract: A package for horticultural items with a receptacle includes a container having a base portion for supporting the receptacle and side portions connected to and extending upwardly from the base portion about the receptacle. A flexible sleeve engages the container side portions to support the container and enclose the horticultural item. The sleeves are supported on a pedestal having flexible straps for spreading the sleeves and allowing removal of a sleeve for packaging the horticultural item.

Abstract: A box or container for yams or other bulk products wherein there are closure panels having lock panels at each end thereof, and which lock panels interlock in lock notches formed in end panels carried by a bottom panel of the box. The relationship between the lock panels, which includes bent elbow hooks, and the lock notches is one wherein the required locking action is easily effected and wherein the locks may be readily released for inspection. The box preferably has a three layer end wall construction including end panels carried by the bottom panel and other end panels carried by side panels of the box. The box is readily stackable and has tapered sides and vent openings so as to permit circulation between and within stacked boxes. In one modification the box is formed from a tube, the tube being formed by joining together the ends of a unitary blank to thereby form a manufacturer's joint, the blank defined by a plurality of hinged, articulated panels.
