Patented Aug. 14,, 1951 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE DISPLAY PACKAGE'FOR DRILLS OR THE LIKE Richard E. Puckett, Chicago, Ill., assignor to United Drill and Tool Corporation, Chicago, 111., a corporation of Michigan Application September 25, 1947, Serial No. '77 6,014 Claims. (c1. zoo-vs) The present invention relates to'display packages that are especially constructed and arranged to receive elongated drills or the like. Display packages that have been employed heretofore for drills and other rather heavy cutting tools have been unsatisfactory from several In the first place, the construction of such drill packages has not been sufficiently substantial; and incident to shipping or handling thereof, frequently adrill becomes unattached from its mounting and cuts through the wall of the package to the exterior. Not only are these broken drill packages dangerous to handle, but all of the contained drills are exposed directly to contact by the handler, and also to the atmosphere, causing rusting and other damage to the contained drills; Moreover, in handling these drill packages, often the labels carried thereby are injured and instructions'and other information printed on the labels are obliterated, whereby the marketability of the drill packages and the contained drillsis impaired. Further, such drill packages have not afforded an attractive and artistic display of the contained drills, while permitting ready visual inspection thereof -without breaking the packages.
Accordingly, it is a general object of the present invention to provide an improved display package that is adap-ted securely to mount in place one or more contained drills or the like and to afford an attractive display of the drills while permitting ready visual inspection thereof without breaking the package.
Another object of the invention is to provide a display package of the character described that- .a display package for elongated drills or the like, that comprises animproved arrangement for preventing the contained'drills from damaging the wall of the package, a
A further object of the invention is-to provide a drill package of improved construction and arrangement and of attractive appearance enhancing the marketability thereof.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a drill display package of substantial construction; whereby the display package consti tutes a chest that may be employed for housing the drills after purchase by the ultimate user.
Further features of the invention pertain to the particular arrangementof the elements of .the displayxpackage, whereby the aboveoutlined and additional operating features thereof are attained.
The invention, both as to its organization and method of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, will best be understood by reference to the following specification taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1- is a front view of a display package for drills or the like embodying the present invention; Fig. 2 is a side view of the display package shown in Fig. 1; Fig 3 is a rear view of the display package shown in Figs. 1 and 2; Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary front view of the display package shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 3; Fig. 5 is a front view, partly broken away, of a modified form ofdisplay package embodying the present invention; Fig. 6 is a side view of .the display package shown in Fig. 5; Fig. 7 is a-rear view of the-display package shown in Figs. 5 and 6; Fig. 8 isa front view, partly broken away, of another modified form of a display package embodying the present invention; Fig. 9 is a side view of the display package shown in Fig. 8; Fig. 10 is a rear view of the display package shown in Figs. 8 and 9; Fig. 11 is a front view,
partly broken away, of a further modified form of display package embodying the present invention; Fig. 12 is a side view of the display package shown in Fig. 11; and Fig. 13 is a rear view of the display package shown in Figs. 11 and 12. Referring now more particularly to Figs. 1 to 4, inclusive, of the drawings, the drill display package I00 there illustrated, and embodying the features of the present invention, is substantially rectangular in plan, and comprises a relatively thick, stiff body element H0 formed of laminated cardboard or the like, and having a plurality of laterally spaced apart elongated openings III formed therethrough. The openings Ill formed through the body element H0 are'of graduated sizes, increasing both in width and length from left to right, in order to receive a corresponding plurality of elongated articles in the form of drills I I2 of graduated sizes and constituting a matched set to'be packaged and displayed; the thickness of the body element H0 being slightly greater than the diameter of the largest drill H2 in the matched set in order to accommodate housing thereof. Preferably, the openings Ill formed in the body element H0 are inclined slightly upwardly and to the right in order to enhance the artistic display of the matched set of drills H2; the points of the drills H2 being positioned adjacent to the bottom of the openings I I I formed in the body element I It to present a uniform and attractive arrangement.
Also the display package I comprises a front inner cover H3 substantially conforming to the outline of the body element H0 and formed of a relatively thin paper; preferably a coated tag stock. The frontuinner cover H3 is secured .to the front surface of the body element I II] utilizing cement; whereby the adjacent surfaces of the body element III] and the front cover H3 are bonded and sealed together. The .front surface of the front inner cover H3 bears a label which is preferably in printed form, displaying the trade-mark, the drill sizes,"instructions concerning the use of the drills and other art work or the like. Likewise, the front inner cover H3 has a plurality of laterally spaced apart elongated holes H4 formed therethrough and arranged .in substantial registry with the openings III formed through the body element I I0. Each of the elongated hole I'Ill formed through the front inner cover I I3 is slightly shorter than the corresponding registering elongated opening I II formed through the body-element I-IB; whereby top and bottom integral projections or tabs II'5T and "H513 are formed on the front inner cover -I I3 and overlying the'respective-ends of thedrills I I2.
Further the display package Ill!) comprises a continuous front outer cover H6 substantially conforming to the outline of the body element" Hi6 and the front inner cover I I3 and formedof transparent material of intermediate thickness. Preferably, the front outer cover H6 is formed of a heavy grade of plastic sheet, such for example, as cellulose acetate. The front outer cover H6 is secured to the front surface of the front inner cover H3 utilizing cement; whereby the adjacent surfaces of the front outer cover I I6 and the front inner cover I I3 are bonded and sealed together. cover I'I'G not only closes the front of the openings .I H formed "through the front inner cover 113 and the front of the openings I-II formed through the body elementl IEL'but it also protects the label, etc., borne by the front surface of the front inner cover H3 against damage or injury.
Finally, the display package IEO comprises a continuous back cover II'I formed of strong material of intermediate thickness and secured to the back surface of the body element I ID to close the back of the openings III formed therethrough. For example, the 'back cover I-I'I may comprise a heavy paper sealer of the gummed variety; whereby the adjacent surfaces of the back cover In and the *body element III! are sealed together.
In the manufacture of the display "package "I00 the body element I I0 is su-itably'formed; the coated tag stockis-su-itably printed to produce'the required-label and then die cut to-form the front inner cover H3; and the front outer .cover ,I It is formed from a suitable sheet of cellulose acetate stock. The front outer cover H6 is then cemented to the front inner cover H3; and the -:composite front cover is secured to the front surfaceof the body element H10 utilizing cement and employing the process commonly known as lamination under heat; whereupon the display package IBI? thusproduced is then stored for subsequent use. Later, the partially finished display package I 00 described above is taken from storage and the matched set of drills H2 is loaded into "the openings III formedin the body element 'I II] from'the back; whereby the top and bottom tabs 1 IfiT-and I I513 formed onthe front inner cover Accordingly, the front outer of relatively soft paper prevents the sharp edges of the drills I I2 from engaging the adjacent overlying portions of the front outer cover I I6. While thefro-ntoutercover I I6 is very strong and tough, "being formed of a heavy grade of cellulose acetate, the tabs mentioned have been found to be most advantageous as the edges mentioned of the drills I I2,;particularly the cutting edges thereof,
have atendency to scratch a cellulose sheet upon direct engagement. Thus the tabs II5T and I I5B carried by the front inner cover H3 prevent direct engagement between the drills H2 and the front outer cover I I6 and the consequent scratching and damage thereto.
.After the drills I I2 have been loaded'throug-h the back of the openings :II I formed through the body element H 0, .cotton, soft paper or the like may be placed behind the smaller drills H2 in order to take up the additional space as a consequence of the substantially uniform thickness of the body element H0; thereby preventing the smaller drills I I2 from shifting about. in the openings I l I formed in the'body .element :I I1]. Ultimately, the back cover H1 in the form of a piece of gummed sealer or paper may be torn from a 'roll, moistened, and then applied to the back surface of the body element H0 in order to complete the display package I00 and securely to reta'in the packaged-drillsII-Z therein.
The display package I00 not only affords a convenient and attractive shipping and display package for-the drills I I2,"but'it also constitutesa substantially air tight housing therefor preventing moisture and other elements from damaging the packaged drills H2 before they are sold to the ultimate user.
Referring now more particularly to Figs. '5 to 7 inclusive, the modified form of drill display package 206 there illustrated, and embodying the features of the present invention, isof the same basic construction and arrangement as the display package I00 described in detail above. Moreover, inthe display package 290 the selection of the materials of the component elements thereof, the method of assembling the elements thereof, the method of loading thedrills thereinto and the final sealing and completion thereof are based upon the same considerations described in connection-with the display package I00. Finally corresponding reference characters have been employed in the drawings to designate corresponding-elements of the display packages I00 and 200.
Briefly, the display package '200 comprises a body element 2I0, a front inner cover 2I3, --a
front outer cover2I6 and a rear cover ZI'I, the body element 2 I 0 havinga-single elongated opening 2"II formed therethrough adapted to receive a-"plura-lity of elongated articles in the form of amatched set of drills 2 I 2 of graduated sizes, and the front inner cover 2I3 bearing a label or the like and having a single elongated hole 2I4 formed therethrough and arranged in substantial ofthe drills 2I2. Also in the display package .200
pairs :of aligned :abutments or rnotches 211a are arranged in the upper and lower edges of the playpackages I and 400.
opening 2 I I formed through the body element ZII! in order to receive andlto position the corresponding ends of the packaged drills 2|2 and to retain them in laterally spaced apart relation. 7
Referring now more particularly to Figs. 8 to 10, inclusive, the other modified form of drill display package 30H thereillustrated, and embodying the features of the present invention, is of the same basic construction and arrangement as the display package IIlll described in detail above. Moreover, in the display package 300 the selection of the materials of the component elements thereof, the method of assembling the elements thereof, the method of loading'the drills thereinto and the final sealing and completion therelot are based upon'the same considerations describedin connection with the display package Illll. Finally correspondingreference characters f' have been employed in the drawings to designate "corresponding elements of the display packages IIllI and 380. y
Briefly, the display package 390' comprises a body element 3H3, a front inner cover 3 I3, a front outer cover 3H5 and arear cover 3| I, the body element 3H1 having a single elongated opening '3 formed therethrough adapted to receive a plurality of elongated articles in the form of a matched setof drills 3J2 ofgraduate'd sizes, and the front inner cover 3|3 bearing a label or'the like and having a single elongated hole 3I4 formed therethrough and arranged in substan- :-tial registry with the opening 3| formed through the body element 3|El' and carrying upper and lower tabs 3|5T and 3I5B overlying the respec- Also in the display package 3110 the dimensions of the opening 3H tive ends of the drills 3|2.
formed through the body element 3H] are fixed in order nicely to receive the matched set of drills 3E2; whereby it is unnecessary to count the individual drills 3I2 as they 'areloaded into the opening 3| I, since the opening 3| I will accommodate when filled precisely" the fixed number and sizes of the matched set of drills 3|2.-

Finally corresponding reference characters have been employed in the drawings to designate corresponding elements of the dis- Briefly, the display package 400 comprises a body element 4 I 0, a front inner cover 4 I 3, a front 'outer cover M5 and a rear cover 4| 1, the body element 4H3 having a single elongated opening 4 formed therethrough adapted to receive a plurality of elongated articles in the form' of drills 4| 2, and the front inner cover 4|3 bearing a label or the like and having a single elongated hole 4 I4 formed therethrough and arranged in substantial registry with the opening 4| I formed through the body element 4I|I and carrying upper and lower tabs 4|5T and M53 overlying the respective ends of the drills 4|2. Also in the display package 400 the dimensions of the opening 4 formed through the body element 4 I 0 are fixed in packaged drills 4 I2.
order nicely to'receive precisely one dozen of the drills 4|2 of a given size; whereby it is unnecessary to count the individual drills 4|2 as they are loaded into the opening 4, since the opening 4|I will accommodate when filled precisely one dozen of the drills 4|2 of the given size. Further in the display package 400, the rear cover 4 I1 is in the form of a door arranged in the rear of the opening 4| I formed through the body element M0, and is preferably made of relatively thin cardboard or the like instead of gummed sealer or paper as in the display package IIlIl. Specifically, the door 4|! is arranged in the back of the opening 4| I formed through the body element 4m and is hinged in place by ahinge 4|Ia in the form of a strip of gummed paper or Scotch tape and is provided with a tab 4| Ib in the form of a strip of gummed paper or Scotchtape in order to retain it in its closed position. Ac-
.cordingly, the door 4I'i isadapted to close the back of the openings 4|! formed through the body element 4!!! and also to afford access to the When access to the packaged drills 4I2is desired, the tab 4|1b may be pulled up from the back of the body element 4|,0 permitting the door 4|? to be hinged away from the back of the opening 4|| formed through the bodyelement 4|ll about the hinge 4I|a. Subsequently, the door 4 I I may be returned to its closed position and again secured therein by pressing the tab 4|!b again into engagement with the back of the body element 4|0.
In view of the foregoing, it is apparent that there has been provided a display package for drills or the like, that is of improved construction and arrangement; whereby the drills are attractively displayed and. are securely mounted in place and housed out-of contact with theatmosphere or other injurious elements. Also the display package permits ready inspection ofthe drills without actual handling thereof, and preserves the label or otherinstructions printed on the front inner cover thereof that might otherwise be damaged or injuredasa consequenceof handling of the, package., ,Furthermore, since the display package is of substantial construction it constitutes a chest that may be employed for housing the drills after purchase by the ultimate user.
While there has been described what is fat present considered to be the preferred embodiment of the invention, it will be understood that various modifications may be made therein, and it is intended to cover in the appended claims all such modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope of the invention.
