Support sleeve for a bag in box package

The bag in box packaging comprising an inner bag, an outer carton and an inner spout retaining member. The inner bag defines a cavity with a spout coupled thereto. The outer carton includes a front wall and a first sidewall positioned adjacent the front wall, both extending from a bottom wall to a top wall. The inner spout retaining member including a first panel spanning diagonally from the first sidewall to the front wall obliquely relative to each wall and spaced apart from a side edge joining the front wall to the first sidewall, to define a triangular cross-sectional configuration. The first panel includes a spout retaining slot extending thereinto. The spout extends into the spout receiving slot so as to capture the spout within the cross-sectional configuration and directed toward the side edge. The inner bag is positioned on the opposite side of the first panel.

There is a closure, which is, in this case, shown as closing a mouthof a bottle, wherein the bottle is made of glass and has an external outwardly extending integral collarwhich extends fully around an outside of the neck of the bottle and is of a constant shape and size at any location around the periphery. The sealis held under compression against an uppermost rimof the bottle mouthand surface, which is adapted to engage with compression force the seal. Upon extraction of portionfrom within the mouth of the bottle, a 'popping' sound is achieved by having the position of the seal somewhat below the mouth prior to extraction so that there will be upon extraction an evacuation of the headspace within the bottle.

A bag in box packaging including a flexible bag and an outer carton. The flexible bag defines a cavity, with a spout coupled thereto providing access to the cavity. The outer carton has a first sidewall and a second sidewall opposite the first side wall. A front wall extends therebetween. The inner spout retaining member further includes an inner spout retaining member. The inner spout retaining member includes a first panel that extends between the first sidewall and the second sidewall and is spaced apart from the front wall. The first panel includes a spout receiving slot extending thereinto. The spout of the bag is positionable within the spout receiving slot of the first panel, so as to position the spout between the first panel and the front wall. A spout locking member is structurally configured to maintain the spout within the spout receiving slot of the first panel.

A bag-in-box assembly apparatus comprising a frame, an insertion assembly and assembly urging arms. The bag-in-box assembly apparatus is configured for use in association with a bag-in-box package having a box with an opening and a bag having a spout. A collar is coupled to the spout of the bag and the also interfaces with the opening of the box. The assembly apparatus is utilized to couple the collar to the bag, inserting the bag into the box and coupling the collar to the box.

A closure () for a bottle containing a carbonated beverage. The closure () including an inner part () and an outer part (). The inner part () adapted to receive a portion of a finish of the bottle. The inner part () includes one or more outwardly extending raised portions (). The outer part () is adapted to fit substantially over the inner part () and is movable relative to the inner part () between a closed position, in which at least a portion of the outer part () urges at least a portion of the inner part () against the neck of the bottle to resist disengagement of the inner part () from the finish and to resist rotational movement of the inner part () relative to the finish, and an open position, in which the inner part () allows disengagement from the finish. The outer part () includes one or more inwardly extending raised portions (). The outwardly extending raised portions () and the inwardly extending raised portions () are configured to engage and prevent relative rotation between the inner part () and the outer part () in the closed position and the open position.

An outer box for a bag in box packaging includes a plurality of walls and an articulatable portion. The articulatable portion is hingedly coupled to each of the dispensing wall, the first sidewall and the second sidewall. The articulatable portion also includes a front portion, a first side webbing and a second side webbing. Inward rotation of the front portion causes the first and second panels of each of the first and second side webbing to rotate about a respective one of the central folds thereof. An outer surface of each of the first and second panels face each other, with the articulated portion overlying a portion of the first panel of each of the first side webbing and second side webbing.

Bag in box packaging

A bag in box carton configured for receipt of a flexible package. Advantageously, the front wall assembly comprises a plurality of chamfered surfaces so that the panel through which the spout extends is captured and contained substantially or entirely within the footprint of the carton.

Bag in box carton

A closure () for a bottle () containing carbonated beverages. The closure () comprises an inner part () and an outer part (). The inner part () is adapted to receive a portion of a finish of the bottle () and includes a plurality of outwardly extending first cam surfaces () that are obliquely angled to the longitudinal axis of the closure (). The outer part () is adapted to fit substantially over the inner part (), the outer part () including a plurality of inwardly extending second cam surfaces () that are obliquely angled to the longitudinal axis of the closure (). The outer part () is movable relative to the inner part () between a closed position in which at least a portion of the outer part () urges at least a portion of the inner part () against the neck to resist disengagement of the inner part () from the finish and an open position in which the inner part () allows disengagement of the inner () part from the finish. When the outer part () is in the closed position: applying a longitudinally directed force to the outer part (), relatively away from the inner part (), causes the outer part () to move longitudinally relative to the inner part () towards the open position as the first cam surfaces () travel relatively longitudinally away from the second cam surfaces (); and twisting the outer part in a first direction about the longitudinal axis relative to the inner part () drives the inner and outer parts longitudinally towards the open position as the second cam surfaces () travel relatively along the first cam surfaces ().
