  • Patent number: 8936188
    Abstract: A package has a sleeve and an insert that lock together. The insert has a longitudinal flange on one side that fits into a corresponding longitudinal channel in the sleeve. The sleeve includes a locking tab in line with the longitudinal channel that is foldable into the sleeve to present a deflectable contact edge across the longitudinal channel. Engagement of the locking tab contact edge with a shoulder on the longitudinal flange prevents movement of the insert in the direction of the locking tab. The insert can be locked in both a forward and a backward direction within the sleeve by providing respective locking tabs and shoulders at both ends of the package.

  • Patent number: 7832624
    Abstract: A pull type packing box comprises inner and outer containers. The outer container is a tube type box for receiving the inner container like a drawer. The outer container is provided with handles and performs the function of a shopping bag. As the outer container partially exposes a head portion of the inner container, a user can grasp the head portion to open the inner container, and information about an article can be printed on the exposed head portion. The strength of the mouth part of the outer container is increased so that the mouth part does not bend and the outer appearance of the packing box is not deteriorated. The outer container generates appropriate frictional force so that the drawer is not excessively opened and closed.
