Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to packaging and, more specifically, to a package which stands upright.
  • Clamshell packages are desirable because, amongst other reasons, they are made of a clear material that makes their contents easy to view, they are made of tough plastic material that provides a high degree of security, and they have the ability to stand upright.
  • the ability to stand upright is a feature that is useful in stocking and displaying items in a store or warehouse.
  • a clamshell package is typically enabled to stand in one of two ways.
  • one or both sections of the clamshell package may be designed to include a base structure near the hinged connection between the sections of the clamshell package, which allows the clamshell package to stand.
  • a second method for enabling a clamshell package to stand upright is to provide a separate base into which the clamshell package is inserted to retain the clamshell package in an upright position.
  • Clamshell packages are constructed from a transparent plastic material that allows contents of the package to be viewed. These materials are useful for security and display purposes but are relatively expensive.
  • a further disadvantage of the known designs for enabling a package to stand upright is that additional material is incorporated into the package to form the base structure, thereby increasing the cost of the package.
  • US2,937,746 which packages and displays a fishing reel. The packaged reel co-operates to maintain the packaged reels in an upright position.
  • a package which includes a shell for containing an object, which is secured to a card having an edge.
  • the shell includes a main body for securing and containing the object, a planar flange surrounding the object, and a foot that extends from the flange.
  • the shell is secured to the card such that the foot of the shell extends relative to the edge of the card so as to cooperate to provide a base to support the package in an upright position.
  • the object in the shell is viewable and the card can be formed of a relatively inexpensive material to reduce the cost of the package.
  • the card can be formed of a material that is easily printed upon to further reduce the necessary size of the shell.
  • a package comprising: a substantially planar card comprising a front panel and a back panel and having an edge; a shell for containing an object; and at least one foot extending from a plane defined by said card; wherein said shell is secured to said card and said at least one foot extends relative to said edge so as to cooperate to provide a base to support said package in an upright position, wherein the or each foot is received in and extends through a port formed in one of said front and back panels, characterised in that the or each port is disposed adjacent to, or relative to, said edge of the card, and is spaced from an aperture formed in one of said front and back panels, through which aperture a portion of the shell extends.
  • said shell comprising: a main body (M); and a substantially planar flange (F) extending about at least a portion of said main body (M); and wherein said at least one foot is formed from said flange (F).
  • the front and back panels are hingedly connected along a fold line that defines said edge.
  • said flange (F) is secured between said front and back panels to secure said flange (F) to said card.
  • said port is proximal to said edge.
  • At least one of said front and back panels includes a detachable portion.
  • said shell is formed from an outer structure and an inner structure.
  • said inner structure comprises a cavity (C) for receiving an object.
  • the package comprises a plurality of shells.
  • two ports are formed in the back panel and wherein a single aperture is formed in the front panel, the package having two feet projecting from a back side of a substantially planar flange (F) extending about at least a portion of a main body of the shell, which main body extends in a direction opposite to the feet.
  • F substantially planar flange
  • the shell comprises an inner structure and an outer structure and wherein a convex outer surface of the inner structure is dimensioned to fit against a concave inside surface of the outer structure.
  • the shell for containing an object projects from only a front side of the card and the at least one foot projects from a back side of the card, wherein the or each foot is structured and arranged such that in a display position when the package rests on the or each foot, the angle (G) between the plane of the card and a plane containing both the edge and lower surface of the or each foot is such that the centre of gravity of the package rests over the feet.
  • the package comprises an object.
  • a substantially planar card for forming the standing package, the card comprising: a first panel including a standing edge; a second panel connected to said first panel; a first section of one of said panels configured to surround at least a portion of a main body (M) of a shell; and a second section of one of said panels configured to surround at least a portion of an extended foot; wherein said standing edge is proximate to said second section and characterised in that said first section of one of said panels includes at least one aperture for receiving a portion of a main body (M) of a shell, said second section of one of said panels includes at least one port for receiving a foot and in that said at least one port is spaced from said at least one aperture.
  • At least one of said panels includes an at least partially detachable portion.
  • an insert for forming the standing package comprising: a first shell configured to receive an object and be attached to a card that defines a standing edge; a second shell configured to be located between said first shell and said card; at least one foot extending from one of said shells, to cooperate with said edge to form a standing package wherein at least one of said shells comprises a flange from which said at least one foot extends and characterised in that the shells and the at least one foot are configured such that the shells are receivable in an aperture formed in the card and the or each foot is receivable in a port formed in the card and spaced from said aperture.
  • said second shell comprises a cavity (C).
  • the shell is formed from a thermoplastic material.
  • the shell is assembled from an inner structure and an outer structure that together define an interior chamber which is adapted and configured for containing an object or objects.
  • the outer structure includes a convex portion and a substantially planar flange that extends about at least part of the convex portion. At least one foot is formed in the flange of the outer structure and extends outwardly from the plane defined by the flange.
  • the inner structure includes a convex portion having a cavity that is configured to receive an item.
  • the convex portion of the inner structure is inserted into the concave portion of the outer structure such that the cavity and the volume between the inner and outer structures define the interior chamber.
  • the composite portions of the inner and outer structures define the main body of the shell.
  • the composite flanges of the inner and outer structures define the flange of the shell.
  • the card has front and back panels that are hingedly connected along a fold line.
  • the front panel includes an aperture for receiving the main body of the shell.
  • the back panel includes ports for receiving the feet of the shell. The ports are disposed proximal to the fold line such that the package is capable of being supported in an upright position by the feet and an edge of the card portion as described immediately below.
  • the back panel further includes a pattern of severance lines for accessing the object or objects in the package.
  • the exterior perimeter of the card may take any form or shape, this configuration being merely a design choice. Specifically, there is no requirement that the standing edge be straight or uniform as shown in the illustrated embodiment; rather it may curve, undulate, or otherwise take any design. In still further embodiments, the standing edge is formed from only a single edge of one panel.
  • the package is assembled as the card is folded along the fold line to define an edge, the main body of the shell is received in the aperture of the front panel, and the feet of the shell are received in the respective ports of the back panel.
  • the flange of the shell is sandwiched between the folded front and back panels of the card as the panels are folded to be substantially coplanar and secured to one another.
  • the shell is secured by the card to form a package and the feet of the shell extend relative to the edge of the card such that lower surfaces of the feet and at least a portion of the edge are coplanar.
  • the shells and panels are individual parts, that is, they are not joined and folded to form the package as shown in the illustrated package but are assembled as Individual parts to form the package.
  • the shells and/or the card are formed of a single part and folded.
  • there is a single foot and that foot is formed from any portion of any of the shells, or parts thereof, and may be formed separately and attached to the package.
  • the feet extend toward the front of the package while in other embodiments the feet extend opposite or alternate direction.
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of components of a package including a card and structures for forming a shell, according to the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the components of FIG.1 illustrating the assembly of a package, according to the present invention.
  • FIGs. 3 and 4 are perspective views of an exemplary package, the package being assembled from the components of FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 5 is a side elevation view of the package of FIGs. 3 and 4 .
  • FIG. 1 illustrates certain of the various aspects of exemplary embodiments of a package formed from a shell and a card that includes features for maintaining the package in an upright position.
  • the shell and the card are assembled such that a foot, which extends from a portion of the shell, and an edge of the card cooperate to provide a base for the package or otherwise support the package in an upright position.
  • a card 104 and outer and inner structures 111, 112 for forming an exemplary shell 102 (shown in FIGs. 3-5 ), which can be assembled to form an exemplary blister card or package 100 (shown in FIGs. 3 and 4 ), are illustrated.
  • the card 104 can be constructed of a foldable sheet material such as paperboard, corrugated board, plastic, cardboard or the like. It should be understood that the card 104 may be formed from a paper-like material in order to reduce costs. Alternatively, the card 104 can be formed from a tear resistant synthetic paper substrate in order to provide increased theft-resistance or child-resistance.
  • the card 104 includes front and back panels 114, 116 which are hingedly connected along a fold line 118.
  • the front panel 114 of card 104 includes an aperture 120 for receiving a main body M portion of the shell 102, as described in further detail below.
  • the back panel 116 of card 104 includes ports 122 for receiving feet 106 of the shell 102 and severance lines 130 for accessing objects in the package 100, as described in further detail below.
  • the illustrated ports 122 are disposed adjacent or relative to the fold line 118. In alternative embodiments, the ports are disposed adjacent or relative to an edge of the card.
  • the severance lines 130 define a push tab 132 and an at least partially detachable portion 134 of back panel 116.
  • the severance lines 130 define a semi-circular detachable portion 134 with a radius that is at least as great as the radius of the inner structure 112 such that the inner structure 112 can pass through an opening defined by the detachable portion 134.
  • these details are design features that are not restricted to the illustrated embodiments.
  • the panels 114, 116 of the card 104 include apertures A that cooperate to define an aperture 103 (shown in FIGs. 3 and 4 ) in the package 100 for hanging the package, for example, from a hook.
  • frrangible line or "severance line” includes, but is not limited to, perforations, a line of perforations, a line of short slits, a line of half cuts, a single half cut, any combination of perforations, slits, and half cuts, short score lines, and the like.
  • the outer and inner structures 111, 112 for forming a shell 102 can be formed of a transparent plastic material so as to allow the contents of the shell 102 to be visible as well as protected.
  • the outer and inner structures 111, 112 can be formed from a thermoplastic material using an infection molding or thermoforming process.
  • the outer structure 111 includes a main body 124 that is surrounded by a flange 126.

  • the main body 125 is a hemispherical shape with a convex outer surface and a concave inner surface.
  • the main body 125 is sized relative to the main body 124 such that the convex outer surface of the inner structure 112 corresponds to or is otherwise received by the concave inner surface of the outer structure 111.
  • a cavity C which is formed to fit an object, is disposed in the outer surface of the main body 125 of the inner structure 112.
  • the cavity C is sized and shaped such that a small tube of medicine can be received in the cavity C.
  • the cavity C can be any suitable shape for receiving an object.
  • the convex outside surface of the inner structure 112 of the shell 102 is dimensioned to fit against the concave inside surface of the outer structure 111 of the shell 102 such that the cavity C is enclosed by a portion of the inside surface of the outer structure 111.
  • the shell 102 is assembled such that the main body 124 of the outer structure 111 and the main body 125 of the inner structure 112 form a composite main body M (shown in FIG. 3 ) of the shell 102.
  • the flange 127 of the inner structure 112 abuts the flange 126 of the outer structure to form a composite flange F (shown in FIG. 3 ) of the shell 102.
  • the flange 127 is dimensioned such that it does not interfere with the feet 106. In certain embodiments, the flange 127 is omitted such that the flange 126 defines the flange of the shell 102, and in other embodiments the feet extend from the flange 127 of the inner structure 112.
  • the package 100 can be assembled according to an exemplary method as the main body M of the shell 102 is received in the aperture 120 of the front panel 114 of the card 104 and the card 104 is folded along fold line 118 such that the panels 114, 116 of the card 104 are brought together with the flange F of the shell 102 disposed therebetween. Further, as the back panel 116 of the card 104 is folded toward the front panel 114, the feet 106 are received in and extend through respective ports 122.
  • the flange 126 is dimensioned to be larger than the aperture 120 such that the shell 102 cannot move through the aperture 120.
  • outer edge portions of each of the panels 114, 116 of the card 104 extend beyond the flange F of the shell 102 so as to be in a flat face arrangement with one another when the card 104 is folded along fold line 118.
  • the outer edge portions of the panels 114, 116 of the card 104 can be secured to one another to secure the shell 102 in or to the card 104 and thereby form the package 100, as shown in FIGs. 3 and 4 .
  • the portions of the panels 114, 116 that directly contact one another, as opposed to being separated by the flange F of the shell 102, are secured together, for example, with adhesive.
  • the sheet material of the card 104 can be secured together by any other known or yet to be developed means for securing sheet material, including glue or other adhesives, staples, mechanical fasteners, Velcro®, and the like.
  • the inner structure 112 facilitates supporting an object in the shell 102.
  • the inner structure 112 can be omitted and the shell can be defined by the outer structure 111.
  • an object is enclosed between the outer structure 111 and the back panel 116.
  • the front panel 114 can be omitted and the flange 126 of the outer structure 111 may be secured to the back panel 116 to form a package that stands upright.
  • three or more shells are included to support multiple objects.
  • an edge 105 is defined. As shown in FIGs. 3-5 , the edge 105 and the feet 106 cooperate to support the package 100 in an upright position, which facilitates displaying the contents of the shell 102 of the package 100. At least portions of the edge 105 and at least portions of the feet 106 are substantially coplanar such that the substantially coplanar portions of the edge 105 and feet 106 act as a base for standing the package upright on a substantially flat supporting surface S . Accordingly, feet 106 may have substantially flat lower surfaces 110 that are roughly co-planar with one another and with edge 105.
  • the size, shape, position, and number of feet 106 are design decisions that will depend on the size, shape, and mass of the contents in the package.
  • the package can include a single foot 106 to maintain the package in an upright condition along with the edge 105, much like a conventional picture frame.
  • the feet 106 need not be significant in size to enable the blister card to stand upright since the plastic material typically composing the feet 106 is relatively rigid.
  • the feet 106 can be designed to be as small as feasible, while still allowing package 100 to stand, in order to reduce the amount of material required to form the feet 106 and in order to facilitate stacking or closely aligning a number of packages 100.
  • the package 100 may include at least one foot 136 that protrudes from the front surface of the package 100.
  • the desired angle G (shown in FIG. 5 ) that is defined between the card 104 of the package 100 and the supporting surface S of the package 100.
  • the angle G can also be defined between a plane that is defined by the flange F and a plane in which the edge 105 and lower surfaces of the feet 106 are coplanar.
  • the package 100 leans back to increase the stability of the package 100 in the upright position or otherwise to prevent the package 100 from falling forward.
  • This backward leaning configuration increases the stability of the package 100 in the upright position since the leaning configuration moves the center of gravity of the package 100, including any contents of the shell 102, over the feet 106.
  • Other configurations of the feet are also possible, including the number, and orientation, and in some embodiments the attachment of separately formed feet directly to the card.
  • the package 100 includes a pattern of severance lines 130 in the back panel 116 of the card 104.
  • the severance lines 130 facilitate removal of a detachable portion 134 of the package 100 so as to access the contents therein.
  • a push tab 132 that is defined by certain severance lines 130 is pressed into a space between the shell 102 and the card 104.
  • the detachable portion 134 of the card 104 can then be grasped and pulled outward to define an opening.
  • the second section of the shell 102 can be removed through the opening to access the object within the shell 102.
  • hinged connection should not be construed as necessarily referring to a junction including a single hinge only; indeed, it is envisaged that hinged connection can be formed from one or more potentially disparate means for hingedly connecting materials.
  • the package may include any number of shells, at least one of which includes at least one foot.
  • the foot may not be defined from the flange and may be attached to the card separately from the shell.
