Definitions

  • This invention relates to a device for thepresentation of stockings and similar hosiery articles, such as half stockings, socks or ankle-socks, which device can be used not only by the vendor for the preparation of the articles but also by the user for keeping the said articles, which nevertheless be may use according to his needs.
  • the device for the presentation of stockings and similar hosiery articles according to the invention is characterised in that it is constituted by a box having a withdrawal opening through which each article can be drawn in succession, the articles being suitably arranged in order in the said 'box and provided with a grasping tab having two lateral notches on opposite edges engaging two edges of a rectangular slot formed on one edge of the opening.
  • the opening is covered with a flap which is connected to the box 'by a tear line which is broken at the moment of utilisation so that the said flap maybe raised thus uncovering th opening.
  • FIG. 1 represents in perspective, and closed, a first form of embodiment of a device for the presentation of stockings according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a view similar to that in FIG. 1, showing the device opened for the extraction of a stocking
  • FIG. 3 is a section on a larger scale along the line IIIIII in FIG. 2,
  • FIG. 4 is a partial section along the line IV-IV in FIG. 3,
  • FIG. 5 is a partial profile view observed in the direction of the arrow V in FIG. 3,
  • FIG. 6 is a view similar to FIG. 2, showing a stocking in the cours of extraction
  • FIG. 7 represents in perspective, again in the closed position, a second form of embodiment of a device for the presentation of stockings according to the invention
  • FIG. 8 is a view similar to FIG. 7 showing the device opened
  • FIG. 9 is a section on a larger scale along the line IX-IX in FIG. 8,
  • FIG. 10 is a partial section along th line X-X in FIG. 9,
  • FIG. 11 is a partial profile view observed in the direction of the arrow XI in FIG. 9, and
  • FIG. 12 is a perspective view similar to FIG. 8, showing a stocking in the course of extraction.
  • the device as represented in FIGURE 1 is constituted by a parallelepipedic box 1 of generally fiat shape, for example of carboard, closed on its six faces.
  • One of its lateral walls is formed by two thicknesses, namely an external fold 2 (FIGURE 3) and an internal fold 3.
  • the internal fold 3 possesses a slot 5 (see also FIGURES 2 and 5) forming th slot for Withdrawal or distribution of the stockings.
  • the external fold 2 also :has a large slot 7 of width at least as great as that of the slot 5 formed in the internal fold 3, and a slot 8 descending also as far as the bottom of the box, the width of which is a little larger than that of slot 6 formed in the internal fold 3.
  • a tab 11 constituted for example by a small piece of folded paper strip, the two ends of which are lightly stuck flat on the two faces of the toe of the stocking.
  • This tab possesses two notches 12, 13cmgaged over the two corresponding lips of slot 6 of the internal fold 3 of the box.
  • the stockings are folded in concertina fashion one upon the other in the box and the tabs are stacked one upon the other and held in place by their notches engaged over the edges of the slot 6.
  • the slot 7 is not completely cut out and the box in the new state possesses on the one hand two cut lines indicated at 13 in FIG. 1 and on the other only commencements of breakage such as 14 on the remainder of the said slot.
  • the corresponding part of the lateral wall of the box thus forms a flap 16 which moreover is terminated by a tongue 17 folded flat on the stack of tabs 11 for extraction of the stockings, the said tongue being formed by the material removed from the external fold 2 of the box in order to form the slot 8.
  • the flap 16 is contiguous with the wall of the box formed by the external fold 2, as represented in FIGURE 1 and indicated in dot-.and-dash lines in FIGURE 3.
  • FIGURES 7 to 12 another form of embodiment is represented which differs from that according to FIG- URES 1 to 6 in that the wall 20 of the box, which possesses the distribution slot, is not formed 'by two folds but comprises only one single thickness. Under these circumstances the notches 12, 13 of each tab 11 are engaged over the two lips of a slot 21 itself formed in a slot 22 cut in the wall 20 of the box to form the distribution slot for the stockings.
  • the fi-ap 2 possesses a slightly smaller height than that of the flap in the form of embodiment according to FIGURES 1 to 6. In fact the slot 21 must be sufliciently deep so that the tabs are in no danger of escaping through the distribution slot when the flap is raised.
  • the tongue 26 for opening the flap comprises for this purpose a first part 26a which, when the device is in the new state, is situated in the plane of the said flap and descends to the upper level of the stack of tabs 11, and a second part 26b applied flat upon the said stack.
  • the slot 21 has been prolonged over a certain length indicated at 21a in FIGURE 9, beneath the bottom of the box.
  • This device is utilised in the same manner as that described with reference to FIGURES 1 to 6, that is to say one commences by exerting a pull upon the tongue 26 in the direction of the arrow F in order to open the flap 25 (FIGURE 7) which possesses the same commencements of breakage, and it is raised as indicated in FIGURE 8.
  • This operation has freed the tabs 11 which can be withdrawn one by one, with the corresponding stocking, through the distribution slot 22.
  • At least one of the walls of the box possesses a window 23 provided with a transparent foil 24 permitting of seeing the colour shade of the stockings.
  • a package comprising a container having a wall with a laterally elongated slot adjacent the upper portion thereof and a vertically extending slot extending downwardly from the laterally elongated slot, at least one article in said container, a flat rectangular tab of foil material having one end connected to said article, said tab having an opposite end having a lateral notch on each side engaged around the portions of said wall bounding the vertically extending slot and extending through the vertically extending slot and having a portion at the exterior of the container wider than the vertically extending slot for grasping by the fingers of a persons hand, said tab being movable up out of the vertically extending slot to permit its withdrawal together with the article through the laterally elongated slot.
  • said wall with said slots is a front wall
  • said container includes a top wall connected to said front wall, said top wall having a flap hingedly connected to said top wall and being foldable downwardly therefrom to close said laterally elongated slot and at least a portion of said vertically extending slot.
  • a package according toclaim 2 wherein said flap includes a projecting tongue formation hingedly connected to the outer end of said flap and foldable outwardly therefrom to overlie said tab.
  • a package according to claim 2, wherein said container front Wall is formed by an interior wall having the slots and an exterior wall which includes said flap.
  • a package comprising a container having a plurality. of folded articles stacked therein, said container having a wall with a laterally elongated slot adjacent the upper portion thereof and a vertically extending slot extending downwardly from the laterally elongated slot, at least one rectangular fiat tab of a foil material having one end connected to each of said articles, said tabs each having an1 opposite end with a lateral notch on each side thereof engaged around the portions of said wall bounding the vertically extending slot, said tabs extending through the vertically extending slot and having a portion at the exte-rior of the container wider than the vertically extending slot for grasping by the fingers of a persons hand, said tab being movable up out of the vertically extending slot to permit its withdrawal together with the article through the laterally elongated slot for selectively removing a tab with an associated article.
