  • Patent number: 11503805
    Abstract: The silent pet treats dispenser has a bottom wall with a sidewall extending upwardly from the bottom wall. The sidewall is provided with an aperture. A closure attaches to a top end of the sidewall and has a flange extending inside of the container. The flange has an aperture with the same size and shape as the aperture in the container sidewall. The closure can be silently rotated from a first position where the aperture in the flange aligns with the aperture in the sidewall to a second position where the apertures are not aligned. In the first position, the aperture in the sidewall is closed, preventing dispensing of the contents of the container. A tab extends from the flange and through the aperture in the sidewall to facilitate movement of the closure from the first position to the second open position.

  • Patent number: 10961012
    Abstract: A container comprising an insert and a sleeve which encloses the insert is disclosed. A blank of resilient sheet material comprising a first, second, third and fourth sequential adjoining rectangular panels are folded along their three shared side edges to form the sleeve having a rectangular cross-section, with a locking tab adjoining the first rectangular panel. An insert having a rectangular cross-section slightly smaller than the sleeve cross-section, and a mating locking tab are configured such that when the front end of the insert is substantially inserted into the front end of the sleeve, the back edges of the sleeve locking tab and the insert locking tab abut one another such that the insert may be removed only upon application of pressure at opposed locations on the exterior of the sleeve to cause the sleeve to bow outward and away from the insert.
