  • Patent number: 10703529
    Abstract: Disclosed is a partition and cover structure that can be accommodated in a shoebox and can be made from one or more conveniently grooved and cut cardboard sheets. The structure includes a substantially rectangular base divided into first and second portions having trapezoidal rectangular shape. The portions of base are consecutive to each other at a respective edge coincident with the oblique side of the aforesaid trapezoidal shape. A pair of mutually opposed partition walls are connected, by way of a fold, to the portions of base at the aforesaid edges, respectively. The structure further includes four side walls two-by-two mutually opposite with respect to the portions of base and connected to the latter by way of respective folds. Also disclosed is a shoebox including the structure, and to one or more substantially flat elements foldable in suitable manner to obtain such structure.

  • Patent number: 10618712
    Abstract: Disclosed is a package obtained by folding a sheet of conveniently cut and creased corrugated cardboard onto itself. The package includes multiple walls and wall linings which are at least partially opposed to one another. Certain wall linings are glued to the walls against which they are opposed in order to prevent the package from opening due to the cardboard sheet with which it is made being unfolded. An electrically conductive track is printed on the cardboard sheet at the inner face of the latter so that an opening of the package causes damage to the track. The package further includes an electronic device coupled to the conductive track and adapted to detect damage thereto, i.e. an alteration of one or more electric features of the track. Each of the wall linings glued to one or more walls of the package includes an easy tear-off-line intersecting the conductive track.

  • Publication number: 20110089799
    Abstract: A container made of bent cardboard and composed of a rectangular tunnel-shaped part in which a drawer is inserted, the drawer having longitudinal walls glued to their respective inner walls with a trapezoidal recess on the two shorter sides for fitting in complementary flaps present at the two sides of the front and rear inner walls of the drawer. The front wall of the drawer is greater than the span of the tunnel so preventing the drawer from penetrating beyond the rear opening of the tunnel, it being pulled out from the front due to the presence of two apertures making a finger-grip. The front wall forms part of a structure holding together the longitudinal walls of the drawer by two spacer flaps joined to the sides of the front inner wall, pressed against two windowed bands joined perpendicularly to their respective longitudinal walls of the drawer, and matching with the front wall on the inner side.
