DEFINITION
Classification: 426/111
(under subclass 106) Subject matter wherein the package structure is of such a design as to expand outwardly to cooperate with an expanding food contained therein, or
wherein the container or package contains a plurality of sections which nest within each other to either expand or contract the exterior dimension of the package or container.
(1) Note. Expansion of an interior portion of a package is not sufficient for placement of a document within this subclass. For instance expansion of an interior liner without an increase in the dimensions of the exterior package would be classified elsewhere.
