Definitions

  • the invention relates to a two-piece shipping/display container which is completely closed during the shipping stage, can be easily opened for the display stage and presents, upon opening, two opposite windows in the two opposite front panels and an open top.
  • an object of the present invention to provide a container which keeps its contents free of dust during shipping and storing, which is strong enough to allow stacking during shipping/storing and displaying of a number of rather heavy or bulky individual items and which, at the same time, is easy to open at the display stage without leaving any raw or unsightly edges and gives full visibility to its contents, allowing easy price-marking and removal of the individual, frequently heavy items it contains.
  • a two-piece shipping/display container is provided.
  • the bottom or tray part consists of a bottom, two opposite side-panels, two opposite composite front-panels and four reinforcing corner pillars.
  • the two opposite composite front panels are provided with a see-through window, whereas the two opposite side-panels show an extension which serves as top flaps when folded over by 90° towards each other, said top flaps serving as basis on which the central portion of the second part of the container can be attached by means of an adequate number of glue spots, to serve as a lid.
  • the second part, or lid part consists of a blank showing four creases, which divide the blank into five portions, the central portion serving as top for the complete container, the two extensions on the two opposite sides of the central portion serving as cover for the see-through windows left in the two opposite composite front panels of the container and the two extreme shorter extensions serving partially for gluing onto the tray part to close the container and partially as opening tabs of the lid part for the container.
  • the opening tabs When the container is to be opened, it is sufficient to pull at the opening tabs to detach the lid part from the tray part, onto which it is attached by adequate glue both along the lower edge of the see-through windows and on the folded-over extensions of the top of the side-panels.
  • top flaps 4 and 4 ⁇ (not shown) have been folded inwards by 90° and ears 5, 5 ⁇ , 5 ⁇ and 5′′′ have been folded down and glued against respectively pillars 6, 6 ⁇ , 6 ⁇ and 6′′′. Subsequently, central portion 9 of lid part 21 is attached by glue spots 12 on the top flaps 4 and 4 ⁇ and extensions 10 and 10 ⁇ are folded down by 90° and held in place by glue strips 13/13 ⁇ in extension 11/11 ⁇ against basis elements 7 and 7 ⁇ , in the precut tear-out areas 8 and 8 ⁇ .
  • Fig. 4 shows how the erected, filled and closed container of fig. 3 has been partially opened and how items 14 it contains, can already be seen.
