Abstract: A method for fabricating a sheet structure from paper and/or paperboard material, which provides a thickness dimension ordinarily associated with corrugated paperboard material. The sheet structure is constructed from a first planar linerboard sheet and a second non-planar linerboard sheet, wherein a plurality of projections are cut and folded from the second linerboard sheet and are adhesively coupled to the first linerboard sheet, such that portions of the projections define a standoff between the first and second linerboard sheets.

Abstract: An apparatus for production of a two-ply paperboard panel is provided. The apparatus comprises a supply of top paperboard panel web. A flap-cutting die cut module receives the top paperboard panel web and cuts a pattern of flaps therein. A flap-forming die roll in juxtaposition with a flap-receiving pocket roll defines an interface therebetween through which the top paperboard panel web is received. An adhesive-application station applies adhesive to surfaces of flaps formed on the top paperboard panel web. A supply of bottom paperboard panel web is provided, which is joined to the top paperboard panel web at a web-merging station. A hold-down system holds the top and bottom paperboard panel webs together while applied adhesive sets or cures. A method for producing a two-ply paperboard panel is also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a one-piece blank for forming a shallow triangular carton. The blank includes a bottom portion having converging paired sidewalls hinged thereto. A third wall is hinged to the bottom and to a cover. In one embodiment the paired sidewalls have upwardly protruding tabs for engaging the cover, and the cover exhibits tab engaging openings therein. In another embodiment, the cover openings converge to define a flexing peripheral edge for frictionally engaging the sidewalls at their conjunction.
