THERMOFORMED CLAMSHELL FOOD PACKAGE WITH CORNER LID RELEASE FEATURE

摘要

A one-piece thermoformed food package comprises a rectangular deep drawn base with a peripheral female rim channel and, connected to the base by a hinge, a lid having a peripheral male rim feature. In the corner of the base is a breakaway release feature which underlies a corner tab of the lid which is tucked into an inside edge of the female rim so that it cannot be accessed to open the package. When the user pushes up on the breakaway release feature, one or more frangible sections are broken and the lid corner tab is raised enough to open the package.
