    Abstract: An otherwise conventional paperboard french fry scoop and container is provided with a game or quiz accessory construction to improve its utility. The rear (higher) wall (16) of the scoop is provided with a pair of parallel slits (24, 26) which slidably receive a tear off strip (62), the latter carried by a glue panel (50) glued to the rear wall of the scoop. The tear strip carries indicia (66, 68) in the form of two rows of respective questions and answers, the indicia being viewed through openings (28, 30) between the two slits. The user tears off the tear strip, inserts it through the slits, and proceeds to read the questions and answers. All components of the scoop are readily formed from the blank, the mode of assembling the device, as well as the basic form of the unitary paperboard blank from which it is formed, being essentially the same as that of known paperboard french fry scoops.

  • Patent number: 6135347
    Abstract: A corrugated paperboard box has two opposed side panels, connected by two opposed end panels having oblong hand hold holes. The box has an automatic bottom for rapid assembly. Overlapping side top flaps extend from the side panels, and engage with one another to temporarily retain the side top flaps closed on the container. A closure flap extends from each side top flap to overlie portions of the other side top flap and the adjacent side panel. An oblong closure tab extends from a fold line from each closure flap and may be pressed through the hand hold hole to lock the side top flap in the closed condition. Each closure flap has two diagonal fold lines, and is larger than the hand hole into which it extends, such that, once fully inserted, the closure tabs are not readily extracted, thereby retaining the container in a securely closed condition without a requirement for tape, glue, or staples.
