Problems solved by technology

For example, they are difficult to clear completely
Edges especially near the bottom and around openings can be difficult to reach
Also, tanks can be relatively heavy, increasing shipping costs
Also, if an accident occurs during manufacturing, residual glass material may contaminate the product, thereby causing a health risk to consumers

Embodiment Construction

[0024] The packet 1 according to the invention comprises a tray 2 with a bottom wall 3 , two side walls 4 , 5 , two end walls 6 , 7 and an open top side or access opening 8 . In the exemplary embodiment given, the access opening 8 is surrounded by a flange 9 which protrudes outwards from the side walls 4 , 5 and the end walls 6 , 7 and forms a support surface for closing the cover 10 . The closure cover 10 may comprise a sheet 11 (such as Figure 3A shown in ) and / or a reclosable cover 12 (as shown in Figure 3A and 3B shown in ). The lid 12 can be used to protect the closure flap 11 from punctures, tears or other damage, and can also be used to reclose the tray after the flap 11 has been removed. Of course, in alternative embodiments the cover 10 may comprise only the sheet 11 or the cover 12 . The sheet 11 and lid 12 may also cooperate to form a tamper-evident closure.

[0025] In the embodiment of FIGS. 1 and 2 , the bottom wall 3 is substantially rectangular, with one...

Abstract

The invention relates to a package for flowable goods, in particular liquid, viscous and/or granular comestibles, such as baby food, pudding, sauce, oatmeal or the like. The package comprises a shallow tray and a cover which in closed condition slants towards a bottom wall of the tray thereby providing the package with a substantially wedge-shaped appearance. The package furthermore comprises two support faces to stand on alternately. A first support face is located at the bottom wall of the tray and a second support face is located at a bottom-surrounding wall of the tray, at the higher end of the wedge. During use, the package can be positioned on its second support face for presentation purposes, on its first support face for consumption purposes. During transport, pairs of packages may placed with their slanting covers against each other, in opposite lengthwise direction so that a high end of a wedge-shaped first package borders a low end of a wedge-shaped second package.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a package for flowables, in particular liquid, sticky and / or granular foods such as baby food, puddings, instant sauces, cereals and the like. Background technique [0002] Typically, such foods are sold in glass jars. Such tanks offer several advantages. One advantage is that they form suitable transport and display devices since they can be stacked in a stable manner and in this stacked state provide good visibility of the contents or provide a label that can be wrapped around the can. And the food can be sterilized directly in the tank. Furthermore, the food product may be prepared ready to eat in the can, for example by heating the can with a bain-marie or in a microwave oven, and may then be served directly from the can. [0003] Despite these advantages, the known tanks also exhibit some disadvantages. For example, they are difficult to completely empty. Especially the edges near the bottom and around the ope...
