Definitions

  • This invention pertains to packaging articles and more particularly to a display package and a method of making such a package.
  • each unit of articles to be sold is mounted on an individual display card. This unit is covered with a transparent plastic material which fixes it to the display card.
  • a number of types of packages have been developed which fall in this general class of display package. Presently, the two most popular types are known as skin packaging and bubble packaging (sometimes referred to as blister packaging). Shrink packages are another type falling within this general class.
  • a cup contoured to the shape of the product, is molded from relatively heavy plastic film.
  • This cup known as a bubble or blister, provides a cavity of sufficient size to receive the product to be displayed.
  • the bubble is formed with a peripheral flange so that it can be attached to a display card, either by heat scaling to the face of an adhesive treated card or by being held within a folding card containing an aperture which permits the bubble to protrude from the face of the card while gripping it by its flange.
  • Bubble packaging is costly for several reasons. One of these is that a rather high-grade and heavy gauge transparent plastic material is required because the bubble must be relatively rigid. Another reason is that bubbles are bulky and, thus, expensive to ship and store because of the excessive space required. In addition, the process of packaging a product in a bubble package is relatively slow and time-consuming.
  • the more recently developed skin packaging is more economical than bubble packaging for many products but it, too, has certain inherent drawbacks.
  • an adhesive is applied to the front of a card.
  • the adhesive after it has dried, is perforated.
  • the article to be packaged is then positioned on the card.
  • a heat softened plastic film is then vacuum drawn down over the article and onto the card to simultaneously form a protective covering over the article and bond the plastic sheet to the face of the display card.
  • Skin packaging is also a diflicult operation. Slight variations in temperature, humidity, porosity of board,
  • Shrink packaging is accomplished by stretching a plastic film, while hot and soft, to form a relatively large cavity to accommodate an article. After the article has been positioned in the cavity the film is heated to shrink it into tight abutment with the product. Cost, susceptibility to puncturing, and the complexity of manufacturing, loading, and assembly are all drawbacks which limit the use of shrink packages.
  • the present invention provides a new package in which the advantages of skin, bubble, and shrink packaging are incorporated into a singl package. In addition, several very positive and additional advantages not provided in any prior package are obtained. With this invention the simplicity and economies even greater than those of skin packaging are obtained. As in bubble packaging, the product manufacturer can package his own merchandise without first making a substantial investment in packaging equipment. In addition, a package of superior appearance is obtained.
  • This package is one in which the product may selectively project from and be visible from either one or both faces of the finished package and yet covered completely by a protective pocket of plastic film.
  • the product is snugly gripped peripherally by the card for support additive to the pocket or pockets.
  • a double-face package is obtained in which both faces are firmly united together over the entire interface to obtain a stronger and more durable package.
  • each face can be the front.
  • Another advantage of the present invention is that it is possible for the first time to utilize polyethylene film in a manner which overcomes all of the previous drawbacks and in a manner which obtains the advantages of this film. These advantages include cost of the film itself, its chemical stability and the elimination of adhesives.
  • a foldover card is one which is normally printed on its outer face. It is scored for folding. When finished it is folded in half along the score so that the printed outer face forms both the front and the back faces of the finished package.
  • a product-receiving aperture is formed in each half of the foldable card.
  • the card is positioned in a mold, face down, with each of the productareceiving apertures positioned over a mold cavity.
  • These cavities are each shaped to define a portion of the contour of a product 'of the product from the package.
  • a heat softenable plastic film is positioned over the card and heated.
  • the softened plastic film is sealed to the exposed inner [face of the card and portions of the film are brought through the product apertures and against the surfaces of the mold cavities.
  • the portions of the film brought against the surfaces of the cavities form pockets which together define a chamber of the contour of the product to be packaged.
  • Sharp corners, projections, and the like may be further accommodated in this invention by modifying the mold so that the cavities do not exactly conform to the shape of the product to be packaged. Rather, the cavities are rounded at all sharp corners and the like so that the product will, in the area of protrusions or sharp corners, be loosely accommodated in the blisters. With a cavity rounded in this way, punctures caused by difiicult shapes are avoided.
  • the product is characterized by the absence of adhesives. This is obtained by utilizing a film, such as polyethylene, which will bond both directly to the supporting card and to itself. It is possible to use this package'with a wide variety of products because the film never contacts the product when the film is in a hot and heat softened condition. It is also possible to do this and still provide a superior package because a folded card is used which overcomes the tendency a film of this nature might have to cause curling or buckling of the supporting card.
  • a film such as polyethylene
  • the pockets have been formed, and the card stripped from the mold, the product is placed in one of the pockets, and finally, whether the card has been made in two separate halves or in one foldable unit composed of two halves, the inside faces of the two halves are then brough together and heat sealed to one another to complete the package.
  • One of the unique features of this invention is that it is possible to provide a tear strip to facilitate removal This is not possible with any of the described prior packages.
  • the card has parallel perforations from one side edge to the aperture. The interface between the card halves is not sealed in the region of the tear strip.
  • To remove the product one simply grasps the tear strip and pulls, simultaneously removing the tear strip and tearing the film. The tearing of the film is continued until the pocket is suificiently separated to release the product.
  • This new package and the method of making it have a number of advantages in addition to those which have been described.
  • the manufacturer of a product to be packaged can purchase a complete package which is ready
  • the printed card and the plastic cavity for receiving the product, or pocket, as it may be referred to, are one integral unit.
  • the loading of the package is simplified as is the scaling to facilitate efficient packaging.
  • the packages can be stored compactly and neatly in a minimum amount of space. They require a minimum amount of handling.
  • One of the greatest practical advantages of this invention is that the inventory of the products to be packaged can be reduced. With prior packaging techniques, it was important to package large groups of products at one time to obtain economies and efiiciencies.
  • the present package readily lends itself well to both the packaging of a few units at a time and to packaging large numbers of units with a completely automated packaging line. If products are packaged differently for different channels of distribution, they can be packaged quickly and efliciently as orders are received as opposed to the prior practice of prepacking relatively large numbers of units for each channel of market distribution. Similarly, since there is no need to ship products to a custom packager, the inventory requirements are reduced. The ability to pack age in small quantities just prior to shipment is also very important in the case of products with poor shelf life. Such products can often not be run in large quantities and held for several weeks or months.

Since the overall configuration of the tape is a cylinder, each of the cavities 12 is substantially the same as that of the roll of tape.
