Abstract
A folded container formed from a single sheet of material and having an integral header. In the flat unfolded state, the sheet comprises a series of generally rectangular side wall panels connected together by fold lines and the side wall panels have aligned side edges. A series of bottom wall panels each has an inner edge connected by a fold line to a side edge of the corresponding side wall panel. A connecting panel is connected to the outer edge of an end bottom wall panel of the series by a severable joint, and a header panel is connected by a fold line to the outer edge of the connecting panel. In the folded, unopened state, the end bottom wall panel is disposed flatwise against the corresponding end side wall panel and the connecting panel is glued flat against the end side wall panel, with the header panel projecting upwardly beyond the side wall panel. The container is moved to its open state by skewing the side wall panels to a rectangular configuration, thus severing the joint.
