It should be understood that various changes can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. For example, the size and shape of the plates and orifices can be adjusted to match items of different sizes or shapes.

It will also be recognized that the directional terms referred to in this article, such as "top", "bottom", "front", "back", "end", "side", "inner", "outer", "upper" And "lower", etc., do not necessarily limit the relevant plates to this orientation, but only to distinguish these plates.

The term "hinge" and "fold line" as used herein refer to the hinged parts that define the green sheet, so that the parts of the green sheet are easy to bend relative to each other, or the appropriate bending of the plates to which the green sheet belongs Various lines of location. Any reference to "hinge" should not be interpreted as necessarily limited to a single fold line; in fact, the hinge can be composed of more than two fold lines, where the shape of each of these fold lines can be straight or curved . If the hinges are formed with linear fold lines, they can be set parallel to each other or slightly at an angle. In addition, if the hinged portions are formed by curved fold lines, they can be set to cross each other, thereby defining a molding sheet in the area surrounded by them. A typical example of such a hinge may include a pair of arched or arcuate fold lines that cross at two points so that an elliptical plate is defined between each other. Furthermore, the hinge portion may be formed by more than one linear shape and more than one curved fold line. A typical example of such a hinge may include a combination of a straight fold line and an arch or arc fold line that intersect at two points so as to define a half-moon-shaped plate piece between each other.

As used herein, "folding line" may refer to one of the following: score line, embossed line, debossed line, a row of perforations, a row of short seams, a row of half cuts, a single half cut, Intermittent cutting lines, alignment cracks in a row, scores in a row, and any combination thereof.

It should also be understood that the hinge portion and the fold line may each include elements formed on the green sheet substrate, such as perforations, a row of perforations, a row of short slits, a row of half cuts, a single half cut, a cutting line, a break Continuous cutting lines, cracks, nicks, and any combination thereof. These elements can be sized and configured according to the intended function. For example, a row of perforations can be sized or designed to have a degree of weakness that can define fold lines and/or cut lines. In addition, the perforations in this row can be designed to be easily bendable and resistant to breakage, easy to bend and use more force to break easily, or use a little force to break easily.

As used herein, "alignment" refers to aligning more than two components in an upright carton, such as aligning the aperture formed on the first sheet with the second aperture formed on the second sheet .
