ABSTRACT:
A collapsed carton tube comprising hingedly connected bottom, front, rear, cover, front flap wall panels, and a pair of end assemblies. The end assemblies include hingedly connected bottom, front, cover, rear, and front flap wall panel end flaps. The end flaps are moveable in the following order into a closed position over end portions of the tube. First, the bottom wall panel end flaps substantially close the tube end portions. Second, the front wall panel end flaps overlap a front portion of the bottom wall panel end flaps with a rear portion exposed. Third, the cover wall panel end flaps, including a recess in a rear lower corner thereof, overlap an upper portion of the front wall panel end flaps and an upper rear corner portion of the bottom wall panel end flaps, the recess leaving exposed an upper portion of the exposed rear portion of the bottom wall panel end flaps below the overlapped upper rear corner portion and rearwardly of the overlapped upper portion thereof. Fourth, the rear wall panel end flaps overlap a marginal edge portion of the cover wall panel end flaps defining the recess, a rear portion of the front wall panel end flaps, and substantially the entire exposed rear portion of the bottom wall panel end flaps. Finally the front flap wall panel end flaps overlap a front portion of the cover wall panel end flaps. An adhesive maintains the end flaps in a closed position.
