Abstract
Description
- This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 15/365,108 filed Nov. 30, 2016. U.S. application Ser. No. 15/365,108 is incorporated here by reference in its entirety to provide continuity of disclosure.
- This disclosure relates to a display hutch. More particularly, this disclosure relates to a display hutch made from a single die cut blank that can be folded into a three-dimensional column, wherein by pushing down on the column, hinged partial shelf elements automatically fold inward accordion style until they interlock to form shelves.
- Floor stands (a.k.a. display hutches) having multiple shelves for supporting products are well known. Typically display hutches are made of multiple components and sometimes even require fasteners. Display hutches can also require complex assembly steps, and can be large even when knocked down. The present disclosure is designed to solve these problems.
- The present disclosure relates to a multiple shelf display hutch that can be made from a single die cut blank. The blank comprises three or more vertical panels separated by vertical fold lines, the number of vertical panels equaling the number of sides of the hutch. The hutch may have three sides, four sides, six sides or any suitable number of sides.
- To make the display hutch, the die cut blank is folded along the vertical fold lines into a three-dimensional vertical column. By pushing down on the column, partial shelf panels automatically fold inwardly until they interlock to form the bottoms of the shelves.
- In one aspect of the disclosure a blank for making a four sided display hutch comprising four major panels is provided. The four major panels comprise a front panel, a left side panel, a right side panel and a rear panel and are foldably connected along vertical fold lines. Each major panel comprises one or more shelf panels and one or more window panels arranged vertically and separated by horizontal fold lines. Each window panel defines a window. Each shelf panel is divided by a horizontal hinge line into a top portion located above the hinge line and a bottom portion located below the hinge line. Each bottom portion is connected to a horizontal shelf bottom fold line and each top portion is connected to a horizontal shelf top fold line. The top portion has a top portion free edge that extends at an acute angle from the shelf top fold line to an end of the hinge line and the bottom portion has a bottom portion free edge that extends at an acute angle from the shelf bottom fold line to the same end of the hinge line. The hinge line may be horizontal (for a straight sided display hutch) or angled with respect to the horizontal dimension (for a twisted display hutch).
