Abstract: A carton blank includes a first main panel, a second main panel, a third main panel, and a fourth main panel. The blank further includes a pair of parallel lines of separation that extend through the first main panel, the second main panel, and the fourth main panel. The pair of parallel lines of separation are equidistant from one another throughout the first main panel, the second main panel, and the fourth main panel. Further, the pair of parallel lines of separation define a first tear feature that extends through the first main panel and the second main panel, and a second tear feature that extends through the fourth main panel. The blank also includes a single line of separation that extends through the third main panel, connecting the first and second tear features.

Abstract: A dispensing system includes a housing, a discharge outlet, and a trigger having a grip portion pivotably coupled to the housing to rotate from a first position to a second position. The grip portion has an upper surface and an interior surface disposed below the discharge outlet when the dispensing system is in an upright position. The upper surface of the grip portion moves outward when the grip portion rotates from the first position to the second position to enable at least one of the upper surface or the interior surface to direct a fluid product discharged via the discharge outlet into an interior of the housing.

Abstract: A system includes a film processing module, a processor, and memory. The processor and memory are in communication with the film processing module. The processor is configured to dynamically coordinate movement of the film processing module relative to a moving web of film and to perform a function on the web of film with the film processing module.
Abstract: An improved remote insect detector is disclosed. The detector includes a pitfall trap that is adapted to trap a target insect within the pitfall trap. An insect funnel passage is located below the pitfall trap and is dimensioned to retain the target insect in a detecting position. An optical beam detection circuit operates to detect the target insect in the detecting position and operates to generate a detection signal.
