Definitions
- ABSTRACT A tamperproof display package for a generally spheroidal shaped article having retaining protruberances extending therefrom is in the form of a tubular walled body formed from a flat unitary blank of paperboard or the like, and has an open upper end receiving the article and locking the same thereto at the protruberances thereof.
- Lower closure flaps are hingedly attached to the lower end of the body and are secured in overlapped relation, and at least one weakened line of tear is provided in the wall of the body defining a detachable portion of the tubular body to aid in removal of the said article and to breach the body so that the walled body is no longer usable after the article is removed therefrom.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tamperproof display package having the improvements according to the present invention embodied therein;
- FIG. 2 is a plan view of a blank for forming a tubular body for retaining a prolate spheroidal shaped hollow article enclosing an article of commerce;
- FIG. 3 is an elevational view of the display package of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 4 is a transverse cross sectional view taken along the line 44 of FIG. 3, looking in the direction of the arrows;
- FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing the bottom portions of the display package of FIG. 1, and showing details of a tear strip for placing the package in condition for removal of the contents therefrom;
- FIG. 6 is a partial longitudinal sectional view through an alternate form of tubular body for supporting the spheroidal shaped article therein;
- FIG. 7 is a partial plan view of a cut and scored blank for forming the tubular body of FIG. 6;
- FIG. 8 is a perspective view showing a tear strip for enabling the article supported within the tubular body to be removed therefrom.
- FIG. 1 One embodiment of the improved tamperproof display package according to the present invention is shown in FIG. 1 and is denoted generally by the reference numeral 10. It is adapted to enclose and display a generally prolate spheroidal-shaped hollow article 11 comprised of an upper half portion 11A and a lower portion 11B, these portions meeting along a line 11C. Article 11 is adapted to hold therewithin an article of commerce such as women s pantyhose or the like.
- Article 11 is adapted to be supported within and held to an essentially tubular walled body 13 having an open upper end 13A.
- Article 11 has circumferentially spaced protruberances close to the maximum girth thereof adapted to be held to the tubular body 13 in a fashion as will be described.
- the tubular walled body 13 is formed from a cut and scored blank of paperboard or the like referred to generally by reference numeral A. It consists of main panels 14 and 16 joined along a fold line 17. A closing flap 18 is foldably connected at a fold line 19 to one end of panel 16 and flap 18 is adapted to be joined to the distal end of panel 14. A pair of flaps 21 are foldably connected along a fold line 22 to one end of the panels 14 and 16, these are folding inwardly against 0 panels 14 and 16 to stiffen the tubular body 13 at the open end 13A thereof. Each of the flaps 21 has a plurality of spaced elongated slots 23 therein, the slots in the .flap 21 attached to the panel 16 being flanked by small slots 24 for a purpose as willappear.
- FIG. 1 Opposite sides of the panels 14 and 16 are provided with hexagonal bottom closure flaps 26 and 27.
- Inner closure flap 27 is flanked by tabs 28 and 29, these being foldably connected to panel 16 along fold line 31.
- Bottom closure flap 26 is flanked at one side by a tab 32 and the other side by a starter or pull tab 33.
- Tabs 28 and 29 are folded-into position and glued to the inner hexagonal closure flap 27 and tab 32 is glued between the outer bottom closure flap 26 and inner flap 27.
- the generally tubular body 13 is adapted to receive the spheroidal shaped article 1 1, the protruberances 12 thereof being received in the elongated slots 23. As seen in FIG. .4, and there being seven elongated slots 23 and but six protruberances 12, it is not necessary to index the position of the article 11 with respect to the tubular body 13, and slots 23 and a majority of the protruberances 12 will fall into the elongated slots 23.
- the small slots 24 are provided, if desired, to assist in holding the article 11 in position if one of the protruberances 12 happens to fall into register with one or both of the small slots 24.
- meeting line 11C lies below the protruberances 12, so that the same is concealed from view.
- the outer bottom closure flap 26 is accordingly provided with converging cut lines 34 which fall into register with lines of weakness 338 in the inner bottom closure flap 27.
- the pull tab 33 is of configuration conforming to a tab 33A formed by the lines of weakness 33B, and the pull tab 33 is continuous with converging spaced lines of weakness 36 defining a tear panel 14. Pull tab is glued to bottom closure tab 26 and tab 33A is glued to tab 26. 5
- FIGS. 6, 7 and 8 there is shown another embodiment of the invention and the tubular body in this instance is formed from cut and scored blank 40A. It differs essentially from the form of the blank shown in FIG. 2, in that a tear strip 41 is provided 3 in the two panels 13 and 14, tear strip 41 being defined by an essentially U-shaped line of weakness 42, parts of which flank the fold line 17.
- a package comprising, in combination: 7 a.' a spheroidal shaped article having extending around its girth a band of circumferentially spaced. aligned protuberances projecting therefrom; b. a tamperproof carton, formed from a flat unitary blank of foldable paperboard, receiving and retaining a portion of said article; i c. said carton including a generally cylindrical body wall defining a tubular structure open at its upper end and having at its lower end a plurality of clo-
