Container with tamper-evidence, reclosure feature

A container formed of an integral blank comprising:

• a) an outer body portion comprising:
• i) a front wall panel,
• ii) a back wall panel,
• iii) a first side wall panel, and
• iv) a second side wall panel,
• wherein, in an initial configuration, each of the front and side wall panels, respectively, has an upper section and a lower section attached thereto by a first line of weakness in the front wall and side wall panels such that upon the application of sufficient pressure, the first line of weakness breaks the attachment of at least a portion of the upper section from the lower section such that the upper section and lower section are no longer attached along the first line of weakness in the front wall and side wall panels, and the back wall panel having a hinge means, thereby forming a second configuration comprising a cover having a front panel, the cover being hingedly attached to the back wall panel to permit the cover to move from an open position to a closed position along the hinge means;
• b) an inner body portion comprising:
• i) a front wall portion having an upper edge, wherein the front wall panel is adjacent to the front wall portion,
• ii) a first side wall portion having an upper edge, wherein the first side wall panel is adjacent to the first side wall portion, and
• iii) a second side wall portion having an upper edge, wherein the second side wall panel is adjacent to the second side wall portion;
• and
• c) a releasable locking device comprising:
• i) a first locking member having a receiving area and being affixed to the inner surface of the front cover panel and
• ii) a second locking member having a flap portion and being hingedly connected to the upper edge of the portion selected from the group consisting of the front wall portion, the first side wall portion, the second side wall portion, and combinations thereof,
• wherein, in an initial configuration, the first locking member is attached to the second locking member by a second line of weakness, the first locking member and the second locking member being in an aligned relationship such that when the second line of weakness is broken, the cover pivotally moves to the open position and a recess is formed between the front panel and side panels and the inner body portion, and when the cover pivotally moves from the open position to the closed position, the first locking member and the second locking member engage to secure the inner body portion with cover in a closed relationship.
