Abstract: A boxed end container is shown having one end closed by a transverse ridge seal and carrying a pull tab. The pull tab allows a separating force to be applied to the ridge seal of the sealed container to separate at least part of the ridge seal and thus open the container and allow discharge of its contents. The pull tab is a generally planar member having an axially extending shank member with a proximal end portion which can be gripped and pulled by a user and a distal end portion having foot members extending transversely to each side of thereof. The shank and foot members are substantially co-planar with one another. The pull tab is secured by the foot members externally to a wall of the container at or adjacent to the ridge seal of the container.

Abstract: The invention relates to a boxed end container having one end closed by a transverse ridge seal and carrying a pull tab whereby a separating force can be applied to the ridge seal of the sealed container so as to separate at least part of the ridge seal and thus open the container and allow discharge of its contents, which pull table comprises a generally planar member having an axially extending shank member with a proximal end portion adapted to the gripped and pulled by a user and a distal end portion having foot members extending transversely to each side of thereof, the shank and foot members being substantially co-planar with one another, the pull tab being secured by the foot members externally to a wall of the container at or adjacent to the ridge seal of the container.

Abstract: The invention relates to a boxed end openable container having means whereby a separating force can be applied transversely to the line of a linear ridge seal of the scaled container at or adjacent that portion of the linear ridge seal located intermediate the apexes of the V folds in the gable ends of the sealed container so as to cause that portion of the ridge seal to separate and subsequently permit substantially the whole length of the linear ridge seal to separate and cause on the tent side walls of the sealed container to move transversely with respect t the line of the linear ridge seal to form an outlet to the container. Preferably, the container is provided with a pull tab secured to a tent wall and/or the ridge of the assembled container. Preferably, the pull tab has laterally extending portions which are incorporated into the ridge structure.
