Abstract
ABSTRACT
An end cap for insertion over a plurality of packages each having at least one end which is susceptible to bending when the packages are shrink wrapped into a bundle. The end cap comprises an end panel for location over said ends and four dependent sides defining an opening to receive the packages, said sides extending partly along the length of the packages to locate the packages in a bundle so that during shrink wrapping of the bundle any forces exerted by a shrink wrapping film will be distributed over the end cap and the pressure on the ends received in the end cap will be minimized.

12~ tl SHRINK WRAPPED SHIPPING BUNDLE OY BLISTER PACKAGES
FOR WINDSHIELD WIPERS
This invention relates to ~he packaging of blis~er packages which are shrink wrapped for shipping and distribution.
While t.he invention will be described particularly with reference ro packages for windshield wipers, it is understood that the invention has application ro the packaging of articles other than windshield wipers.
Commonly, windshield wipers are packaged individually and shipped to a retail outlet in boxes having a capacity to hold fifty wiper packages. The wiper packages are conveniently grouped in bundles of five for stocking up depleting display units and each package has a perforated substantially planar header adapted to receive a hanger for suspending the package at the display wall.
In order that the contents of each bundle may be easily ascertained, it is proposed to shrink wrap the bundles in clear synthetic plastic having a thin gauge which is easily torn so that the packages may be separated with a minimum of effort.
Unfortunately, when groups of packages having planar headers perforated for suspending the packages are shrink wrapped, the headers are urged inwardly towards the centerline of the bundle and become bent, thereby adversely affecting their appearance.
In a boxed package, damage to the header may be minimized by providing the package with a fold line at the junction between the header and an adjoining panel and by lZt~
folding the header over t,he adjoining panel and securing t.he folded header on ~he panel wi~h adhesive before shrink wrapping. The adhesive is select,ed so t,ha~, the header may be easily released frorn the panel and the package is suspended for display wi~,h the creases from folding t.he header looking relatively neat and tidy.
In a blister package, it is desirable and convenient, t,o reinforce the header portion with ribs or buttress extensions of a cavity formed in the blister to contain the packaged article.
This helps to preserve the point-of-sale appearance of the blister package which, by its nature, is more susceptible ~,o damage during shipping than a boxed package. Such reinforcement, however, is usually insufficient, to withst,and t,he forces produced during shrink wrapping and additional measures must be taken to maintain the package in mint condition. It will also be noted that the side walls of the cavity in a blister package are not very often at right angles to the upper and lower surfaces of the package so that even without reinforcement of the header, it is impractical to fold the header over the adjoining side or blister wall.
An object of this invention is to provide a means whereby packages having headers for suspending the packages may be shrink wrapped with minimal damage to the headers.
In accordance with the invention, there is provided an end cap for insertion over the ends of a plurality of packages being shrink wrapped in bundles for shipping and storage, the end cap being adapted to withstand any forces exerted on the ends of the packages during such shrink wrapping so that when 12~66-1i the packages are displayed, t,hey will have a fresh appearance.
A preferred embodiment, of t.he invention is described below with reference t,o ~he accompanying drawings in which:
Fiy. 1 is a perspect,ive view illustrating a pluralit,y of blist,er packages suspendea for display from hangers inserted through headers which form part, of t,he packages;
Fiy. 2 is a perspective view drawn ~,o a larger scale than Fig. 1 and illustrating a shrink wrapped bundle of five blister packages in which the shrink wrapping film is partly cut away to expose an upper end cap according to the invention; and Fig. 3 is a perspective view looking upward and drawn beside Fig. 2 showing the upper end cap of Fig. 2.
Reference is made firstly to Fig. 1 which illustrates a plurality of elongate blister packages 20 suspended from a hanger 22 supported from pegboard 24 of a display wall 26.
Different packages 28 are suspended from a second hanger 30 attached to the pegboard 24. In the example shown, the packages 20 contain a first size of wiper blade and the packages 28, a longer wiper blade.
These packages are exemplary and will of course vary in shape and size according to the product being contained.
Making reference particularly to package 28a which is furthest from the display wall 26, it will be seen that the package 28a includes a blister 32 which protrudes from an associated planar substrate 34 laminated to the blister to define a sealed cavity. In this case, the median height of the blister cavity is selected to accomodate a wiper and it is greater in magnitude than the thickness of the substrate, in 12~6 ~1 particular at a header 44 which is integrally formed with the substrate and is perforated to recelvè the hanger 30.
It wil:L be apparent that the header 44 is susceptible to bending or folding, in particular, on application of a transverse force o~ the kind produced during shrink wrapping.
To minimize such bending, and delamination of the package, an end cap according to the invention is inserted over the ends of the package such that any forces exerted by a shrink wrapping film will be distributed over the end cap and the pressure on the header will be minimized.
Reference is next made to Fig. 2 which illustrates a bundle 36 of five packages 28 which have been shrinked wrapped for shipping and distribution to retail outlets in a clear, thin film 42 of synthetic plastic material. The packages 28 are stacked and arranged adjacent one another so that their ends are flush and at each extremity of the bundle 36, the ends, including the headers 44, are received in respective upper and lower end caps 38, 40.
The upper end cap 38 is more clearly seen in Fig. 3 and includes a rectangular end panel 48 for location over the ends of the packages and four dependent sides 50 which define an opening 52 to receive the packages. Preferably, the end cap 38 is made of self-supporting transparent synthetic plastic material to permit easy visual identification of the contents of the bundle 36. For additional rigidity, the longer opposing sides 50 of the end cap are deformed to have transversely extending ribs 64 extending between the opening 52 and the end panel 48.
12~
Before placing ~.he end caps 38, 40 over t.he ends of t.he packages, outerrnost packages 28b, 28c are orient.ed with ~.heir respect.ive blisters directed inwardly ~owards each other such that their respective substrates define opposit.e external sides of the bundle 36 which are planar and more suited to sustaining the pressures exerted during shrink wrapping. Furthermore, it will be noted that the blister cavity will usually ext.end t.o the foot of the package remote from the header and the packages are oriented such that the headers of some of the packages are opposite to the feet of adjacent packages, thereby further improving the rigidity of the bundle.
Conveniently, the end caps 38, 40 will operate to locate the packages in a bundle and so will maintain the selected orientation of the packages prior to shrink wrapping.
Shrink wrapping of the bundles is carried out in conventional fashion and the bundles, in turn, are packaged in labelled boxes and shipped for distribution to retail outlets.
At a retail outlet, the boxes are opened and whenever display stocks are low, a bundle is retrieved and opened. It will be appreciated that the number of packages in a bundle may be varied according to the size of the packages and the capacity of the hangers. It has been found with windshield wipers that a bundle of five packages is easily held in one hand and is thus most convenient.
