A two-way rollable packaging box that can be recycled without using adhesives for fixed connection. The box has a unique folding structure with six outer walls, first and second side walls, first and second inner walls, and central side walls. The outer walls, side walls, and inner walls fold to create a box shape. The central side walls have wing pieces that connect to the inner walls. The box folds into a triangular prism shape. The side walls have through holes. The inner walls fold inward to hold the contents. The box has fixing and coupling parts at the ends of the outer and inner walls to secure the box when rolled. The box can be rolled and unrolled without adhesives or tape for sealing. It can be easily recycled since it's made of a single material without adhesives or plastics.

A simplified, one-piece device for packaging and applying cosmetic products like mascara that eliminates the need for a spring and complex locking mechanism. The device has a sliding applicator assembly that can be opened and closed by rotating a drive ring. The ring has a slot that engages grooves on the container neck. Rotating the ring drives the applicator assembly in and out by sliding it along the grooves. This allows opening the applicator to dispense product, then closing it by rotating the ring back. The ring can rotate between two angular positions, one for closed and one for open.

Cardboard food packaging with a detachable lid that provides easy handling and repeatable connection without adhesive while maintaining dimensional stability. The lid rests on an edge flange projecting outwards from the container. The container and lid each have connecting tabs and slots that engage laterally along the edge flange. This allows the lid to slide on and off without glue while preventing movement. The tabs have undercuts to secure the lid and the slots have corresponding shapes.

Reusable packaging for shipping products that can be folded compactly when empty and expanded to protect items during transport. The packaging has a bottom, top, and four hinged side walls that can fold parallel to the bottom in a compact configuration. In the expanded configuration, the side walls pivot out perpendicular to the bottom to create a box shape for protecting items during transport. This allows the packaging to be reused multiple times by collapsing it when empty for return shipping.

A cover opening and closing mechanism for packaging boxes that allows easy opening without separate release buttons or devices, while reducing manufacturing costs by using the same paper material for the cover and box. The mechanism involves an elastic piece inside the box that connects to the cover when closed. When the cover is forced upward, the elastic piece deforms and separates from the cover groove, allowing the cover to open. This prevents accidental closure. When closed normally, the elastic piece restores and clicks into the cover groove. The cover can be easily opened by pressing it onto the box.

Pill carrier for intermediate transport in blister packaging processes that allows reliable, automated repackaging of various medications without needing custom carriers for each original blister. The carrier has recesses with pivoting receiving bodies that can open and close. Pills enter through the bottom and exit through the top opening. The pivoting motion is controlled by springs. This allows precise pill handling without damage. The carriers are arranged in rows. A filling device pushes plungers to pivot the bodies open. It enables filling multiple carriers simultaneously. A light grid checks if pills are falling in or out. This enables automated filling of mixed medications without custom carriers.

Reusable pouch with a closure system that provides auditory and tactile feedback when opening and closing the pouch. The closure has an elastomeric male closure profile with oversized regions that interdigitate with the female closure profile. This creates a snap when closing that indicates a tight seal. The oversized regions provide tactile feedback and the snap provides audible feedback. The intermittent interdigitations prevent the male from fully retracting, requiring the snap to fully engage for a tight seal.
