(1) Note. An access opening is an opening which is intended to be used for the insertion or removal of content.

(2) Note. The closure does not necessarily have to block the entire opening as long as it blocks the insertion or removal of the disclosed intended content.

(3) Note. A closure, per se, is classified here if it is disclosed for use with a paperboard box.
