Abstract: A two-piece bliss-type container blank and resulting container for easily dispensing products contained within is disclosed. Specifically, the container is designed to have an exterior bottom panel that is essentially flat, while having an internal bottom panel that is inclined toward a front panel. The front panel includes structure to permit the removal of product from within the container. The two-piece bliss-type structure provides a strong and stable container that may be constructed to varying sizes and geometries.

Abstract: A container blank comprising a bottom wall having two opposed pairs of sides. One dimension of the bottom wall is the distance between one pair of the sides. Walls are attached to each of the sides. The heights of the walls are substantially equal. A closure member and handle member are attached to the walls attached to one pair of sides. There is a hand hole in each of the handle members. At least one of the closure members has a length greater than one-half the bottom wall dimension, and the combined length of the closure members is greater than the bottom wall dimension. A closure panel is attached to each of the walls attached to the other pair of sides. Attachment flaps are attached to the sides of each of the closure panels.

Abstract: A container blank comprising four walls. The first and third walls are one pair and the second and fourth are another pair. The heights of the walls are substantially equal. A closure member and handle member are attached to each of the walls of one pair of walls. There is a hand hole in each of the handle members. At least one of the closure members has a length greater than one-half the width of one of the walls of the other pair of walls, and the combined length of the closure members is greater than the width of one of the walls of the other pair of walls. A closure panel is attached to each of the other pair of walls. Attachment flaps are attached to the sides of each of the closure panels.

Abstract: A container has opposed pairs of parallel walls. There are closure members attached to the upper side of one pair of walls which extend downwardly into the container. Handle members attached to the closure members. The handle members are contiguous in the formed container and have aligned hand holes. The upper sides of the handle members are below or at the top of the container. Closure panels are attached to the upper sides of the other pair of walls. The closure panels are attached to the first pair of walls and are over the closure and handle members. The closure panels form an opening to grasp the hand holes.

Abstract: A three part container having a bottom wall and two walls in one part, and a wall in each of the other parts. The heights of the walls are substantially equal. A closure member and a handle member are attached to the walls in each of the other parts. There is a hand hole in the handle member. At least one of the closure members has a length greater than one-half the width of one of the walls of the one part, and the combined length of the closure members is greater than the width of one of the walls of the one part. A closure panel is attached to each of the walls of the one part. Attachment flaps are attached to the sides of each of the closure panels.

Abstract: In accordance with the aspects of the present invention, a single piece container blank is disclosed. The present invention includes a blank constructed from a single sheet of foldable material cut and scored to define a bottom panel, a top panel, a front panel and a back panel. Additionally, the blank includes pairs of opposed bottom flaps, top flaps, front flaps and back flaps. A front flap tab is attached to each front flap along a front flap perforation line. A relief slot is formed between the front panel and each of the front flap tabs. The relief slots are arranged in an intersecting relationship with the front flap perforation lines. A manufacture flap is hingedly attached to the bottom panel. Opposed manufacture tabs are attached to the manufacture flap. The width of the manufacture flaps is no greater than the width of the front flap tab.

Abstract: Bliss-type boxes made by combining containerboard body blanks with end panel or box liner blanks. The invention is a Bliss box former in direct association with a slitter/scorer. The slitter/scorer is supplied with containerboard sheets having a width which is equal to the length of the box liner blanks. The sheets have a length which is equal to a whole number multiple of the width of the box liner blanks. No waste is created. Box liners are severed and scored for delivery as needed by the Bliss box former. By combining the slitter/scorer with the Bliss former the need for maintaining multiple sizes of box liner blanks in inventory is reduced and setup when boxes are being made that differ only in width is greatly simplified.

Abstract: A container is described having inner and outer members. The inner member includes opposed side walls, a rear portion, and a front portion. At least one of the front and rear portions includes a pair of side flanges, each including a notch. The outer member has a bottom panel, side walls, a rear portion and a front portion. At least one of the front and rear portions includes a pair of upright wrapping panels and a bottom flange. As assembled, the inner member is positioned within the outer member so that the inner member side walls and the outer member side walls are adjacent one another. The inner member notches mate with the outer member bottom flange to form a coplanar combination. The upright wrapping panels are positioned exterior to the combination and overlap at least portions of both the side flanges and the bottom flange.

Abstract: A bliss-style container is provided having a single outer member (10) and first and second separate inner members (12). The outer member (10) includes a bottom panel (14), two primary end panels (16), and two upright reinforcing flaps. Each primary end panel (16) includes two upright reinforcing side flaps (20). The first and second inner members (12) each include an upright side panel (22) and first and second secondary end panels (24) hingedly connected to opposed side panel side edges. Each secondary end panel (24) has an outer edge (26). As assembled, both sets of secondary end panels (24) are positioned so that their outer edges are within a distance of less than about 0.25 inches of one another.

Abstract: A paperboard container is provided including an E divider and an outer portion formed about the E divider. The E divider includes a pair of divider panels at least one of which includes a front edge with a protrusion formed therealong. The outer portion includes a bottom panel with front and rear panels, a first outer side panel with upright front and rear panels, and a second outer side panel with upright front and rear panels. The lateral front panel includes an opening. As assembled, the lateral rear panel and the upright rear panels are coplanar and adjacent the E divider rear panels. The E divider front panels are coplanar with the lateral front panel, and the upright front panels surround portions of both. The at least one protrusion in the divider panel extends through the lateral front panel opening.
