Abstract
A tamper-evident container including: a container body having a first hollow convex loop on a periphery of an opening thereof; and a lid having a second hollow convex loop and a force application structure, where the second hollow convex loop is used to engage with the first hollow convex loop, and a loop-shaped breakable line is provided on a loop-shaped top surface of the second hollow convex loop; where, when an illegitimate user applies a lifting force on any local area of the second hollow convex loop of the lid to make the local area moving upward with a displacement exceeding a threshold, a corresponding local area of the loop-shaped breakable line will be broken to show that the tamper-evident container has been tampered with.
Claims5
A tamper-evident container, comprising:
- a container body having a first hollow convex loop on a periphery of an opening thereof;
- and
- a lid having a second hollow convex loop and a force application structure, wherein the second hollow convex loop is used to engage with the first hollow convex loop, the force application structure is located in an area surrounded by the second hollow convex loop, and a loop-shaped breakable line is provided on a loop-shaped top surface of the second hollow convex loop;
- wherein, when in a normal opening operation, the force application structure is used for a user to apply a longitudinal force of pull or press thereon to break the loop-shaped breakable line, so that an area enclosed by the loop-shaped breakable line can be removed from the lid;
- and when an illegitimate user applies a lifting force on any local area of the second hollow convex loop of the lid to make the local area moving upward with a displacement exceeding a threshold, a corresponding local area of the loop-shaped breakable line will be broken to show that the tamper-evident container has been tampered with.
