Abstract: A die for working sheet material by cutting the sheet material along cutting lines and scoring the sheet material along scoring lines offset from the cutting lines includes a pair of opposed, coacting die plates. One of the die plates carries knife edges extending along the cutting lines, and the other die plate includes a raised cutting land extending longitudinally along the desired cutting lines and extending transversely along the cutting lines, such that the knife edge engages the land as the sheet material is fed between the plates to thereby sever the sheet material along the cutting lines. The die plate carrying the cutting land also includes one or more pairs of offset scoring lands defining a scoring channel therebetween defining the scoring line. The die plate carrying the knife edge includes a scoring land which forces the sheet material into the channel as the sheet metal is fed between the plates to thereby effect scoring of the material.

Abstract: A folding carton design consisting of 23 working panels, 22 fold lines, and 1 round hole. The design incorporates an opening/reclosing feature which opens to allow access to the contents of the carton, then recloses in a secure fashion.The opening/reclosing feature utilizes an overlapping, double closure system guided by rounded side guides. The side guides incorporate stop tabs which act to prevent the box from opening to a point where the overlapping closure would be dislodged. Upon closure, the side guides are retracted into the body of the carton and hidden from view.

Abstract: A die carrier combined with a die board where the die carrier is positioned within an opening formed in the die board. The die carrier includes a block having a peripheral groove, an extendable strip fitted within the groove, and a screen carried by the block and engageable with the extendable strip to move the strip outwardly from the block. By virtue of the movement of the block within the die board opening, the die carrier may be positioned to register the embossing components.
