Definitions
- the card has at least one restraining flap extending into the aperture and may be folded up along the side of the syringe, the bottle, or the needle area to provide protection for those areas. End restraining flaps may also be provided in combination with the side flap. The flaps may be formed to extend beyond the height of the syringe and bottle to create a three or more point support for additional cards which then may be stacked on top of the package.
- FIG. I is a perspective view of a package containing a syringe and filler bottle and incorporating the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a plan view of a blank adapted to be folded into the package shown in FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is a plan view of the blank shown in FIG. 2, showing the reverse side thereof and illustrating the application of thermo-plastic film;
- FIG. 4 is a side elevational view of two packages such as those shown in FIG. I illustrating the stackable feature of the package.
- the package shown in the figures generally as is adapted for use in holding a syringe shown as which has an extending plunger 16 which has at one end thereof, a flat, round disc I7 against which the thumb pushes to activate the syringe. Also at the top of the barrel 15 is a finger ledge 18 which is also used in activating the syringe.
- a filler bottle 20 is placed end-to-end with the syringe I5 and the area in which the needle is located, shown generally as 22, may be protected by a plastic sheath which provides asceptic conditions for the needle. Since there is considerable mass on either end of the needle, the combined syringe l5 and bottle 20 must be maintained in a relatively rigid position so that the small end of the syringe I5 and the needle is not damaged.
- the package 10 includes a front panel 30 which is substantially rectangular in shape and which has formed therein by die cutting an aperture 35 which extends lengthwise along the front panel 30 and is generally the length and width necessary to accommodate the syringe and bottle 15 and 20.
- the ends of the aperture 35 are defined by fold lines 38 and 39 which are used to connect end restraining tabs 40 and 41.
- These end restraining flaps are folded upwardly to a position normal to the plane of the first panel 30 and serve to protect and locate the syringe l5 and bottle 20 in the package.
- they are formed in height a distance greater than the maximum dimension of the syringe 15 or bottle 20 above the front panel 30.
- the extended areas 35a and 35b serve as a base from which extend the side restraining flaps 55 and 56.
- the extended sections 350 and 35b locate the base of the side restraining flaps 55 and 56 close to the sides of the syringe l5 and the needle area 22 so that maximum protection is obtained.
- FIG. I shows how the side restraining flaps 55 and 56 are folded outwardly from the plane of the first panel 30 at substantially right angles thereto and the particular embodiment shown the side restraining flap 55 lies directly adjacent to the finger hold 18 and the syringe IS.
- the side and end restraining flaps S5, 56, 40, and 41 are all folded outwardly from the plane of the first panel 30, and as can be seen in FIG. 4 they are formed so that they all project an equal distance from the plane of the card 30, thereby creating a series of support points on which a similar package may be stacked as shown in FIG. 4 where two such packages are positioned one on the other.
- thermo-plastic material 60 positioned over the back side of the first panel 30 and formed in size sufficient to cover the entire aperture.
- the package is formed by placing the first panel 30 face down on a vacuum mold or other pocket forming apparatus which expands the film 60 to create a pocket large enough to accommodate the combination syringe I5 and fill bottle 20.
- a second panel 65 is then placed and sealed to the back side of the first panel 30 so that the syringe I5 and fill bottle 20 cannot fall out.
- the package is then processed through a means for heat shrinking the film about the syringe and bottle which brings the film 60 into close contact with all the parts of the package which are exposed
- the outwardly foldable restraining flaps 40 is then processed through a means for heat shrinking the film about the syringe and bottle which brings the film 60 into close contact with all the parts of the package which are exposed.
- the back panel or second panel 65 may be a second sheet of paperboard or it may be hingedly attached as shown along the hinge line 66 in which case it is merely folded into position after the pocket is formed in the film 60 and the articles are loaded into the aperture.
- a first panel made of foldable paperboard
- said first panel having an elongated die cut aperture formed therein, said aperture being formed in length substantially equal to said syringe and filler bottle;
- said aperture in said first panel being formed in width at its ends suffieient to allow said bottle and said finger ledge on said syringe to pass therethrough;
- a first side restraining flap positioned in said aperture and connected along a first fold line parallel to the lateral edges of said aperture, said first fold line defining one edge of a first extended area of said first panel protruding into said aperture, said finger ledge adapted to be positioned adjacent one end of said first flap;
- a second side restraining flap positioned in said aperture spaced longitudinally from said first flap and connected along a second fold line parallel to said first fold line said second fold line defining one edge of a second extended area of said first panel protruding into said aperture along the lateral side opposite said first extended area;
- said first and second parallel fold lines spaced apart a distance equal to the diameter of said syringe
- a second panel hingedly connected to one edge of said first panel substantially equal in size to said first panel.
- a first panel made of foldable paperboard
- said first panel having an elongated die cut aperture formed therein, said aperture being formed in length substantially equal to said syringe and filler bottle;
- said aperture in said first panel being formed in width at its ends sufficient to allow said bottle and said finger ledge on said syringe to pass therethrough;
- a first side restraining flap positioned in said aperture and connected along a first fold line parallel to the lateral edges of said aperture, said first fold line defining one edge of a first extended area of said first panel protruding into said aperture, said finger ledge being positioned adjacent one end of said first flap;
- a second side restraining flap positioned in said aperture spaced longitudinally from said first flap and connected along a second fold line parallel to said first fold line, said second fold line defining one edge of a second extended area of said first panel protruding into said aperture along the lateral side opposite said first extended area;
- said restraining flaps being folded outwardly from said first panel, panel with said syringe being positioned therebetween;
