Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for packaging, displaying by hanging or standing, and storing of electronic products, especially of car phone chargers. The method and apparatus for packaging a product for display, such as a retail sales display, involves an anterior packaging member and a posterior packaging member, the anterior and the posterior packaging members being mounted together, such as by seam-mounting, in a fitted flange configuration. The anterior and the posterior packaging members each have a complementary contour for accommodating the product. The product may be a car phone charger, especially for a car phone charger having a retractable wire.
Abstract:
A collection of beverage bottles includes respective color-coded beverage caps. The beverage caps have permanent passive non-verbal indicia indicating the identity of the user of an unencumbered beverage bottle without tangible surface-interfering customized or temporary identifiers, such as tangible surface interfering elements, including stick-on labels, customized beverage can lids, or modified surfaces of beverage containers. The color-coded bottle caps are used as the actual caps for conventional beverage bottles. The color-coded caps do not add cumulative indicia to the bottle caps, in additional to pre-existing indicia, such as brand name logos, on the bottle caps.
Abstract:
A packaged cosmetic product is provided which includes multiple effervescent sachets placed within a tub with an open dispensing mouth. A carbon dioxide breathable and moisture barrier foil is arranged sealingly to close the dispensing mouth. Any carbon dioxide generated during storage, usually as a result of moisture prematurely effervescing powder within the sachets, is allowed to slowly diffuse into the atmosphere through the window formed by the special foil. The tub is formed of walls which do not have any substantial carbon dioxide breathability but do prevent inward moisture penetration.
Abstract:
A retail display hang tag device for supportively displaying a fluid applicator of the type having a container and a fluid dispensing closure with a protective cap. The hang tag includes an elongated panel having an upper portion, a lower portion and a central portion extending therebetween. The upper portion has an aperture sized for supportive engagement with a retail display hanger or hook. A second aperture of the lower portion closely fits over the neck of the container and is flexibly bendable about the first line of weakness. The central portion includes a ring which is bendably deformable about a second transverse line of weakness which is parallel to the first line of weakness. The ring fits over the cap as it is deformed out of the plane of the device about the second line of weakness. The hang tag is attachable to the fluid applicator with the cap within the third aperture and the neck within the second aperture after being elastically or resiliently fitted over the largest diameter of the fluid dispensing closure with the lower portion and the ring in their in-use position. A prong formed at the lower end of the central portion engages with grooves in the cap for best retail viewing.
Abstract:
A portable and refillable flexible tissue dispensing container is provided. The container includes several sides, and an opening for dispensing tissues in a ready mode for grasping by a user. The dispenser may be linked to a ring binder or a key chain for portable use, and pulling one tissue from the container orients the next successive tissue in place for dispensing. A dispensing opening may be provided with a releasable closure such as velcro (hook and loop), snaps, plastic, or the like. In a further more compact arrangement, the tissue may be bi-folded before being loaded into the dispenser.
Abstract:
There is provided a dispensable package of oil absorbing wipes in the form of a plurality of discrete sheets comprising a consolidated melt-blown web of thermoplastic fibers. The web has an opacity value of about 65 or less when oil free, and changes transparency by at least 30 when loaded with about 6 grams or less of oil per square centimeter. The wipes are contained in a package having at least one access opening allowing a user to grasp a single discrete sheet of wipe material.
Abstract:
A merchandising system can display merchandise on a display rack. The system has a pair of articles to be worn by a person (for example, gloves). The articles have a right main body and a left main body, each with a user (or hand) opening. The pair of articles have an attachment subsystem for providing an outlying attachment locus for the articles. The attachment subsystem includes a right extremity and a left extremity secured at the user opening of the right main body and the left main body, respectively. The right and the left extremity are each able to reach out of the user opening. The attachment subsystem also includes a display arrangement including a panel. The attachment subsystem is arranged to detachably secure the articles together with the panel, and the right extremity and the left extremity. The attachment subsystem is adapted to hang on the display rack and support the articles. Thus the articles can be attached to and detached from the attachment subsystem without marring either the right main body or the left main body of the articles.
Abstract:
A product comprising an absorbent paper material and a container for use as a dispenser, which is adapted to hanging from a support member, such as a towel bar, is disclosed. The container can be optionally located on a surface, such as a counter top, and used as a dispenser. This provides the container with two different dispensing modes. The container has a hanger member integral with the container on one end, and the hanger member is attachable to the container in at least two separate positions. The hanger member is also adapted to covering at least a portion of the absorbent paper material exposed by an opening into the container prior to hanging the container.
Abstract:
A combination includes a holder and a replaceable dispenser package. The dispenser package has an opening for dispensing one or more items from the package, and a resealable cap assembly covering the opening of the package. The resealable cap assembly includes a reclosable cap that may be opened for dispensing the one or more items from the package. The combination includes a holder for securing the dispenser package. The holder has a front wall with outer peripheral edges, and an aperture defined by inner peripheral edges of the front wall that are spaced inwardly from the outer peripheral edges of the front wall. The resealable cap assembly engages the inner peripheral edges of the front wall aperture for securing the dispenser package to the holder. In certain preferred embodiments, the resealable cap assembly may be press-fit into the aperture. In other preferred embodiments, portions of the resealable cap assembly may be slid into grooves adjacent the inner peripheral edges of the front wall aperture. The grooves may be formed in the inner peripheral edges of the front wall aperture.
Abstract:
A kit package includes an inner package element that defines a pedestal base having a support surface adapted for supporting an associated primary kit component. The pedestal base also defines a region adapted for receipt of an associated secondary kit component. A secondary component securement flaps are connected to the pedestal base and is movable into a folded position adjacent the pedestal base. The flap at least partially encloses the secondary component receiving region. An outer package element defines a hollow compartment adapted for receipt of the inner package element. A distal end of the flap projects outwardly beyond the pedestal support surface when the flap is located in its folded position. The flap distal defines a recess adapted for close receipt of a portion of an associated primary kit component. The pedestal base defines a hollow region that is adapted to receive one or more packages of loose kit components.
