摘要:
A package for containing tablets or like separate dispensable items is provided having so-called child-resistant and senior-friendly storage and dispensing properties. An elongate outer sleeve houses a separate blister card carrying tablets or like items. The card slides into the sleeve to a storage position in which the card is housed within the outer sleeve and slides in the reverse direction to a dispensing position in which the card at least partially extends from the open end of the sleeve. The sleeve includes an internal locking restriction secured to a wall thereof, and the card includes a tail end having an integral latch. The locking restriction and latch cooperate to form a locking engagement thereby locking the card within the sleeve when the card is in the storage position. The sleeve includes visually defined squeeze locations on opposite side edges thereof that correspond to a location of the internal locking restriction. The locking engagement of the latch to the internal locking mechanism is released when the outer sleeve is squeezed at the visually defined squeeze locations. The construction of the outer sleeve from a paperboard blank, the construction of a blister card having a latch, and a method of assembling the above referenced package are also disclosed.

A package for storing and dispensing tablets includes a blister card having blister compartments and a hollow plastic sleeve providing a protective housing for the blister card when the blister card is in a storage position within the sleeve. The sleeve includes a pair of latches that extend toward the blister card, and the blister card includes a pair of latch-catchers for cooperatively engaging and catching the latches when the blister card is in a storage position to automatically lock the blister card in the storage position within the sleeve when the blister card is slid to the storage position. The sleeve also includes a deactivator positionable between a first position in which the blister card is permitted to automatically lock to the sleeve when the blister card is slid to the storage position and a second position for preventing the blister card from becoming locked to the sleeve.

A package is provided that is able to contain tablets or like separate dispensable items in a manner exhibiting child-resistant and senior-friendly dispensing properties. The package includes a card, such as a blister card, and a protective hollow sleeve. The card has a base strip on which a plurality of spaced-apart compartments are provided for holding the tablets or like items, and the sleeve has an opposed pair of side edges extending between opposite ends with at least one of the ends being a dispensing end of the package. The sleeve provides a protective housing for the card when the card is in a storage position within the sleeve, and the card is slidable relative to the sleeve between the storage position and a dispensing position in which the card extends at least partially outside the sleeve to expose at least one of the compartments. The card has a pair of locking tabs extending laterally from opposite sides of the card, and the side edges of the sleeve cooperatively engage the locking tabs to lock the card in the storage position when the card is slid within the sleeve to the storage position.

A carded package includes a front card bonded to a rear card with a blister card captured therebetween. The blister card has upstanding blister compartments projecting through openings of the front card. The rear card extends over an opposite face of the blister card and is a laminate including a tear-resistant polymeric layer bonded to a paperboard layer. The polymeric layer extends adjacent the blister card and the paperboard layer of the laminate extends remote from the blister card forming an exposed surface of the rear card. The rear card includes perforations aligned behind the blister compartments. The perforations include a first set of perforations cut entirely through the paperboard and polymeric layers and a second set of perforations cut into the paperboard layer and not into or entirely through the polymeric layer. A method of assembling a carded package is also disclosed.

A card for packaging tablets includes a tablet-carrying layer having a plurality of close-ended hollow compartments for housing tablets with each of the compartments having an open end located on an underside of the tablet-carrying layer and a sealing layer secured to the underside of the tablet-carrying layer for sealing the open ends of the compartments. The sealing layer has perforations formed therein defining a plurality of separate strips. The perforations enable each of the strips to be separately peeled away from the tablet-carrying layer without peeling away a remainder of the sealing layer. Each of the strips extends directly under a plurality of the compartments such that, when one of the strips is peeled away from the tablet-carrying layer, the contents of multiple compartments can be dispensed at a given time.
