Abstract: A packaging container has a container body formed of a shape substantially resembling an inverted cone. The packaging container can be set alone on a support surface and the contents, such as confectionery, of the packaging container can be removed without holding the packaging container by hand. The container package includes a container body formed of a shape substantially resembling an inverted cone and having a tapered end portion and an open end opposite the tapered end portion, a lid for hermetically sealing the container body, and a frustum-shaped exterior shell removably fitted on the container body. When the exterior shell fitted on the container body is removed from the container body and is inverted, and the tapered end portion of the container body is inserted into the inverted exterior shell, the container body is supported by the exterior shell. The container body is provided on its outer surface with protrusions.

Abstract: A container (1) with collapsible sides (3a,3b,3c,3d,5a,5b), wherein at least one side (3a) is provided with at least one pivotally mounted lock handle (12) with a lock pin (13) that can, while protruding from the side (3a), be introduced into an opening (14) in an abutting side (3d), wherein the lock pin (13) can, by turning of the lock handle (12), be caused to lockingly engage with the opening (14). The lock handle (12) is pivotally mounted in such a manner that in this locking position as well as in its resting position in which the lock pin does not engage with the opening (14) is situated substantially along the side (3a), while in other positions it protrudes considerably from the side (3a). The lock handle (12) is provided with a spring mechanism that will, irrespective of the position of the lock handle, influence it with a force in a direction towards its locking and resting positions.

Abstract: A stackable container, including side walls extending upwardly from a bottom wall and defining an open-top, enclosed space therein, and rigid support members spaced about the bottom wall, the rigid support members having a vertical height. The side walls are tapered outwardly so as to be stackable in a nesting relationship within a similar container with a stacking offset less than the support members vertical height whereby the support members are supported on aligned rigid support members of the similar container. Outwardly tapered stress-relieving triangular corner surfaces extend upwardly between 130° and 140° from corners of the bottom wall and connect to side walls to form each junction of the bottom wall with two side wall.

Abstract: A reclosable package or bag having a mouth with a plastic zipper installed therein. In one embodiment, the zipper has first and second interlockable profiled structures connected by a membrane. The membrane acts as a tamper-evident feature and a hermetic seal. The plastic zipper is opened and closed by a slider that has no separating finger to separate the interlocked profiles. The membrane can be configured and situated such that it is captured in an interstice formed by the interlocked profiled structures and also serves as a liquid-tight seal after the membrane is torn. In another embodiment, the membrane depends from one of the profiled structures of the zipper. The membrane has a width and gauge that allow it to serve as a liquid-tight sealing gasket when captured in the interstice formed by the interlocked profiled structures.
