Description

Oct. 29, 1935. B, MINK A MERCHANDISING PACKAGE FOR P'INS Filed May 15, 1935 Patented Oct. 29, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ZCIaims.
This invention relates to an improved merchandising package for pins, particularly pins of a generally U-shape such as hairpins or bobby PlIiS.
The objects of the invention are to provide a package of small size which can be readily carried in a pocket, purse or bag and from which the Vpins can be easily and readily removed when needed yet securely held in place so as not to become lost or scattered loosely in the pocket, purse or bag.
Another object is to provide a merchandising package for pins of the character described in which the ends of the legs of the pins are hiddenA or covered s o as to prevent their catching upon other articles or projecting into the material of the pocket, purse or bag.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a merchandising package having the advantages just described which will be relatively inexpensive to manufacture.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein- Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved package with the ilap of the cover in open position, and
Figure 2 is a vertical cross section with the ap in closed position.
Examination of the figures will show that my improved package includes a cover indicated as a whole by the reference character 3. 'I'his is made preferably of heavy paper or cardboard so that it can be readily folded to provid@` a back portion 4 and a front or flap portion 5, the lower'end portion of the back being folded or reverted to provide the recess 6. To close the ilap portion 5 it is folded over along the line I and its free edge 8 is then slipped behind the free edge 9 of the reverted portion I0, as clearly shown in Figure 2.
The pins are mounted upon an insert I I and in the present instance I have shown a plurality of bobby pins I2 which are passed through an opening I3 near the upper edge of the insert so that the pins may be said to straddle the insert.
The insert is then mounted in the cover by placing the edge opposite the opening I3 within the recess 6 and then securing it in position as by (Ch 20G-66) the staple Il, and it will be noted that the ends I5 of the front legs o! the pins, as mounted in the package, are hidden or protected by the reverted portion I0 so as to prevent their catching upon other articles or upon the material of the 5 pocket or container in which the package is carried should the ilap portion 5 inadvertently slip out from behind the folded portion I Il so as to leave the pins exposed.
By mounting the pins in this way, i. e., with 10 the closed or base portion of the U projecting away from the recess 8 it is possible to readily remove one or more pins as desired simply by opening the ap and withdrawing a pin from the opening I3. Furthermore, by mounting the pins l5 astraddle in the opening I3 it is possible to more firmly hold the pins on the insert I I than it would be were the pins simply mounted so as to straddle the upper edge of the insert.
It will be seen that my improved package is 20 exceedingly simple in construction and correspondingly inexpensive to manufacture while at the same time it provides a very convenient and secure package for the pins without in any way interfering with ready withdrawal of a pin when 25 desired.
What I claim is:-
1. A merchandising package for U-shaped pins comprising a cover having a back portion with a reverted or folded end portion forming a recess, a 30 front or flap portion the free edge of which is adapted to be slipped behind said folded end, and an insert having an opening with the pins astraddle therein, said insert being secured in the recess with the ends of the legs of the pins ex- 35 tending below the margin of said reverted portion.
2. A merchandising package for U-shaped pins comprising a cover having a back portion with a reverted or folded end portion forming a recess, a front or ap portion the free edge of which is adapted to be slipped behind said folded end, and an insert having an opening with the pins astraddle therein, said insert being secured in the recess with the base or closed portions of the U-shaped pins projecting away from the recess.
