2 Clim. (01.206-(56) This invention relates to a bobby pin display card, and is more particularly concerned with the provision of a card formed of flexible Sheet material, such as cardboard, to receive a plurality of bobby pins for distribution and sale. Bobby pins are now commonly soldeon cards formed with a plurality of apertures through which one leg of each bobby pin is inserted, the bobby pins being held against axial or lateral displacement relative to the card by means of the resilient clamping action of the legs against opposite sides of the card. It will be appreciated that the threading of bobby pins through slots in display cards involved a relatively tedious and expensive operation.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a display card in which the bobby pins are arranged to straddle one end of a display card to simplify the manufacturing operation of mounting bobby pins upon cards. f
It is a further object of this invention to pro= vide a display card embodying means to engage the bobby pins against accidential axial or lateral displacement from their mounted positions along the edge of a card.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a bobby pin display card embodying a plurality of apertures disposed to receive the free ends of the legs of the bobby pins to prevent accidental axial or lateral displacement of the bobby pins from the cards.
This invention further contemplates the provision of a bobby pin display card in which the bobby pins are arranged to straddle one end of the card; after which the card is folded intermediate its ends to arrange the two end portions in a common plane.
This invention further contemplates the provision of a bobby pin display card folded intermediate its ends and with the end portions arranged in a common plane and stapled together to prevent accidental axial or lateral displacement of the bobby pins from their positions along the edge of one of said end portions.
This invention embodies other novel features, details of construction and arrangement of parts which are hereinafter set forth in the speciiication and claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, whereiri:
Fig. 1 is a top plan View showing the display card and the manner in which bobby pins are mounted thereon.
Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view taken along the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a top plan View showing a modiiled form of display card for bobby pins.
Fig. 4 is a transverse sectional View taken along the line 4-4 of Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is a top plan view showing another modified form of this invention.
Fig. 6 is a transverse sectional view taken along the line 6-6 of Fig. 5.
Fig. 7 is another modiiied form of this invention.
Fig. 8 is a transverse sectional view taken along the line 8-8 of Fig. 7.
Referring now to the drawing for a better understanding of this invention. and more particularly to Figs. 1 and 2 therein, a bobby pin display card is shown as comprising a rectangular blank II of flexible material, such as cardboard to receive groups of bobby pins I2. I2 are formed from lengths of resilient wire bent intermediate their ends to form leg portions I3 and I4 normally disposed in engagement and adapted to yieldably resist movement away from each other. If desired, one of the legs of each bobby pin may be crimped at I6 to increase the gripping action of the legs relative to a lock of hair interposed therebetween.
One edge of the blank I I is formed with a plurality of recesses Il to receive the loop ends I8 of a group of bobby pins. The blank I I is also provided with a plurality of apertures I9 which coact with their respective recesses I1 in holding a group of bobby pins against lateral or axial displacement from the blank. The recesses I9 are disposed at a predetermined distance from the recesses I1 to receive the free ends of the crimped legs I3 of the bobby pins. It will be noted that the walls defining the recesses Il prevent lateral displacement of the loop ends I8 of the bobby pins.; while the walls dening the apertures I9 prevent lateral displacement of the free ends of the crimped legs I3 of the bobby pins.
Referring now more particularly to Figs. 3 and .4 in the drawing, a modied form of this invention is shown as comprising a blank 2| of ilexible sheet material, such as carboard, bent intermediate its ends to provide a front portion 22 and a rear portion 23. The front portion 22 is formed along its free edge with recesses 24 to receive the loop ends I8 of bobby pins I2, and is formed with apertures 26 to receive the free ends of the crimped legs I3 of the bobby pins, in the manner heretofore illustrated and described in connection with Figs. 1 and 2 in the drawings. After the bobby pins I2 have been mounted upon the front portion 22 of the blank 2l, the front portion 22 and rear portion 23 are secured in folded relation by means of staples 21'. In this form of the invention, it will be noted 'that the legs I4 ol' The bobby pins f the bobby pins are snugly engaged between the opposing faces of the front portion 22 and back portion 23 of the blank.
Another form of this invention is shown in Figs. 5 and 6 as comprising a blank 3| of carboard, or other exible material bent intermediate its ends to provide a front portion 32 and a rear portion 33 which are secured in folded position by meansl of staples 34. The front portion 32 is formed with recesses 36 along its free edge to receive and engage the loop portions I8 of bobby pins l2, and the back portion 33 is formed with apertures 31 to receive the inner portions of the legs I4 adjacent their loop ends I8. In this form of the invention the Wall 31a of each aperture 31 acts as an abutment shoulder to resist accidental axial displacement of the bobby pins from the front portion 32 of the blank, While the side walls 31h of each recess 31 acts to prevent angular displacement of the bobby pins along the front portion 32 of the blank.
Referring now to Figs. 7 and 8 in the drawing, another modied form of this invention is shown as comprising a blank 4I of cardboard or other flexible sheet material out and scored to provide a front section 42 and a back section 43. The free edge of the front section 42 is formed with a plurality of recesses 44 to receive the loop ends I8 of a group of bobby pins I2. The front section 42 is also formed with a plurality of apertures 46 arranged in spaced alignment with their respective recesses 44 to receive the free ends of the clamping legs of the bobby pins I2. If desired, the back section 43 may also be formed with apertures 41 to receive leg portions of the bobby pins adjacent the connecting loop portions I8. After bobby pins I2 have been mounted on the front section 42 of the blank 4I, the back section 43 is secured to the front section 42 by means of staples 48.
In each of the several forms of the invention shown and described, it will lbe noted that the bobby pins I2 are engaged against lateral or axial displacement from the cards by means of coacting recesses and apertures. It is contemplated that each card may be formed with one or more sets of coacting recesses and apertures, and further that the card may be scored transversely intermediate its ends to provide a front section and a rear section which may be secured together in face-to-face relation by means of staples to further insure against accidental displacement of bobby pins from the card,
While this invention has been shown in several forms, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that it is not so limited but is susceptible of various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the claimed invention.
We claim as our invention:
1. In a bobby pin package, a sheet of cardboard folded intermediate its ends to provide two overlying sections of different lengths, the short section having a notch formed in its free edge and an aperture in spaced alignment with said notch, said aperture having a greater length than said notch, a group of bobby pins mounted astride said short section in abutting side-by-side relation with their loop portions disposed within said notch and the end of the legs on the outer side of the short section disposed within said aperture, and staples to secure the free edge of said short section to the long section to frictionally engage the legs of the bob-by pins disposed between the l two sections, said long section being formed with an aperture in registry with said notch to receive portions of the bobby pin legs disposed adjacent thereto, one transverse edge of the aperture in the long section being disposed in opposing relation to the transverse edge of said notch to coact therewith in preventing withdrawal of pins from said short section.
2. In a bobby pin package, a sheet of cardboard folded intermediate its ends to provide two overlying sections of different lengths, the short section having a notch formed in its free edge, a group of bobby pins mounted astride said short section in side-by-side abutting relation with their loop portions disposed within saidv notch, and staples to secure the free edge of said short section to the long section to engage the legs of the bobby pins disposed between the two sections, said long section being formed with an aperture in registry with said notch to receive portions of the bobbypin legs disposed adjacent thereto, one transverse edge of said aperture being disposed in opposing relation to the transverse edge of said notch to coact therewith in preventing withdrawal of pins from said short section.
