Abstract

See full text

An interlocking carton and lid combination is disclosed for storage of ice cream, frozen yogurt and the like. The interlocking combination includes a rectangular container provided with flaps integrally formed therewith and attached along a crease inwardly into the container and glued along a strip portion to the side walls. A slot is provided in each of two opposed sides on the exterior thereof, the slots formed in the side wall between the crease and the glue strip adhesively coupling the flap to the side wall. This positioning of the slot with respect to the crease and glue strip causes the unglued portion of the flap to bow outwardly. A lid having a central portion has transversely extending flanges integrally formed and attached to the peripheral edges of the central portion. The flanges include an outer side and an inner flap portion connected along a crease. Two opposed flanges have slots located in the respective flap portions and the flaps are glued to the respective outer sides along a strip portion located between the slot and the edge of the flange spaced from the crease. This configuration causes the unglued portion of the flap between the crease and the slot to bow outwardly. The lid is receivable on the container wherein the lid slots interfere with the container side slits.
