- Moist Towelette Packaging BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/453,553 filed March 12, 2003, U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/457,937 filed March 28, 2003, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/490,938 filed July 30, 2003.
- Moist towelettes are commonly sold and used in consumer product markets. Many methods exist for packaging moist towelettes. However, there are no packages that have adequate dispensing mechanisms. Wipes and moist towelettes are packaged as center dispensing rolls in cylindrical containers or as stacks of individual horizontal towelettes.
- the new invention is intended to allow for easy retrieval of "fallbacks", as well as easing the initial "threading” process one must go through upon initial opening/use of the package.
- the new invention allows threading to be done without removing the cap.
- several of the new embodiments allow refills to be inserted into the canister without removing the lid/cap.
- the layout of the dispensing system and the geometry and shape of the dispensing orifice/aperture minimize and mitigate product fallbacks.
- the new invention improves performance of the orifices/apertures through unique geometry and shape as well as using different materials from existing products, or the combination of multiple materials, such as hard thermoplastic molded substrate surrounding the orifice structure, with co- molded rubber-like material filling the void or aperture center. Varying orifice diameter, co-molded density and stiffness or geometry of the actual lobes defining the dispensing aperture allow the precise amount of friction to be created in the dispensing opening for selectively grabbing or releasing the towelette, thereby tearing towelette connection perforations at just the right time.

- Figure 32 is a top view of a single trap door embodiment with a wide opening .
- Figure 33 is a side view of a single trap door embodiment with a wide opening.
- a trap door embodiment of the invention is generally referred to by the numeral 1.
- a container 3 has an open upper end 5 that is configured to receive a complementary lower end 7 of the cylindrical wall 9 of the dispenser 1.
- the dispensing top 11 has two mirror- imaged portions 13 pivoted on living hinges 15. Each half 13 has a dish shape with product-engaging lobes 17 formed between generally radially extending recesses 19. Elongated recesses 21 are formed along the parting line 23 of the two dish-shaped halves 13.
- a cover 25 with a lifting tab 27 is joined with the top about a living hinge 29. The tab 27 lies within a recess 31 when closed.
- an inward-extending tab 33 cooperates with a rim 35 on the top of the container and extends between two living hinges 37 to assist in holding the cover 25 fully opened or fully closed.
- Door lock stops 39 extend inward from the central opening 41 to prevent upward travel of the dish- shaped halves 13.
- FIG. 5 shows an alternate form of the orifice 45 in which the radial recesses 19 and 21 in the halves 13 are of equal size, making the lobes 17 of equal size.
- Figures 6-8 show a dual lid embodiment. The lower portion 7 of the cylindrical wall 9 is configured for snapping onto the moist towelette container.
- the main portion 53 has a central opening 55 with a center support lobe 57, which extends into the opening.
- An orifice-holding lid 59 has a central portion 61 with lobes 17 separated by radial recesses 19, and a relatively large recess 63 with a radial split 65 used to thread the towelette.
- a throat 67 has an outward-extending rim 69, which snaps between an inward-extending rim 71 in the central portion 53.
- a tab 73 is provided to lift the orifice lid 59 around living hinge 75 if required.
- the split 65 and the large opening 63 align over the center support lobe 57, which provides the fifth lobe which cooperates with the four other lobes 17, forming a towel-lifting opening 45 in the center.
- pressing inward on the lobe 17 near the central lobe 57 allows the split 65 to open for reaching the innermost towelette 43.
- Pulling that towelette upward through the opening 45 and continuing the upward pulling of the towelette draws the next adjacent towelette partially through the opening until the towelette r bridges are ruptured. The result is that the next adjacent towelette is partially extended through the opening 45, allowing the next towelette to be conveniently removed through the orifice, and holding the end of the succeeding towelette in the orifice.
- a cover 25 similar to the cover shown in Figures 1-4 is connected to the container end with a living hinge 29.
- a tab 27 aids in opening the cover.
- a rib 77 extends around an outside of the throat 78 of the cover for cooperating with an inward-extending lip 79 on the throat of the orifice-holding lid 59.
- Figures 9, 10 and 11 are perspective views of the container end 51 with the cover 25 raised and the orifice holder 59 closed.
- Figure 10 shows an orifice holder 59 raised with the innermost towelette 43 being pulled from the towelette roll 44.
- the orifice holder is shown with the slit 65 separated to aid in the lateral placement of the towelette 43 through the orifice 45.
- Figure 11 shows the closing of the orifice holder 59 while partially pulling the first towelette 43 through the orifice 45.
- Figures 12-14 show a cap 81 of the invention with a pop-up orifice.
- the container 3 has an upper end 5 with a shape that is gripped by the shaped lower end 7 of the wall 9.
- a cover 25 is connected to the wall 9 by a living hinge 29.
- the cover has parallel V-shaped receiver brackets 83 on its inner surface, which receive outward-extending pins 85 on detachable hinge 87 at the outer end of the hinge plate 89.
- Living hinges 91 connect the hinge plate 89 to the orifice plate 93, which is in turn connected by a living hinge 95 to the top of the container.
- the hinge plate 89 may be folded around the living hinge 91 inward in the container.
- the orifice plate 93 and hinge plate 89 are lifted around the living hinge 95, and the innermost towelette 43 from the roll 44 is started through the orifice 45.
- the hinge pins 85 are connected to the V-shaped receivers 83 on the cover 25, as shown in Figure 14.
- the drawing of the towelette upward through the orifice 43 draws the next connected towelette from the inner surface of the roll 44 until the bridges connecting the towelette are fractured into the resistance of the orifice 45.
- the cover 25 is closed, folding the hinge plate 89 around the living hinge 91 on top of the orifice plate 93 as the cover is closed, as shown in dashed lines in Figure 13.
- FIGS. 15 and 16 show a cap 101 with a telescoping member 103, which fits through a central opening 105 in a central recess 107.
- a rim 109 at the bottom of the member 103 prevents or retards withdrawal of the member 103 through the central opening 105 in the recess 107.
- a funnel-shaped guide 111 cooperates with the sloped wall of the rim 109' to permit assembly of the telescoping member in the central opening 105.
- the sliding member has a central opening 113 that leads to an enlarged orifice 115, through which a lead towelette is pulled from the center of the roll 44.
- a top 117 of the sliding member 103 substantially fills the central depression 107.
- a hinged handle 116 extends upward from the top 117, and a throat 118 extends downward and has an inward rib 119, which snaps over an outer edge of the guide 111 to retain the telescoping member in inward position, as shown in Figure 16.
- the cap When using the telescoping member, the cap may be removed and the innermost towelette on the roll 44 may be fed through the central opening 113 and out through the orifice 115 to start the dispensing.
- Lifting bail 116 raises the telescoping member 103 and the orifice 115, and makes the innermost towelette available for pulling from the orifice. As the towelette leaves the orifice and pulls the end of the next towelette through the orifice, increased resistance causes the towelette bridges to break, leaving the second towelette partially exposed for pulling outward through the orifice. Simply pushing in on the top 117 of the telescoping member 103 closes the container.
- One cap 121 as shown in Figures 17 and 18, has an integrally molded central dish 123, which is connected at parting line 125 with a soft, relatively flexible orifice portion 127, which contains the orifice 129.
- cap 131 has a sidewall 9 and an inward extending orifice shelf 133, in which the orifice 45 is formed.
- a large opening 135 is provided in the cap 131 through which the innermost towelette in the underlying roll may be grasped and slid laterally through a slot 137 into the orifice 45.
- Cover 25 is mounted on living hinge 29 to close the cap 131 and the underlying container.
- Figures 20-24 show varied orifices and lobe shapes.
- Figure 20 shows an orifice 45 with five lobes 17 and five thin triangular recesses 19 extending radially from the center of the orifice.
- Figure 21 shows an orifice 45 with six similar lobes 17 spaced between triangular shaped recesses 19 leading outward from the center of the orifice.
- Figure 22 shows a circular orifice 145 with four curved lobes 147 between four curved slots 149.
- Figure 23 shows an orifice 45 similar to the orifice shown in Figure 20, with five lobes 17 and with enlarged radial recesses 19.
- Figure 24 shows an orifice 45 with round laterally touching lobes 17 and circumferentially enlarged recesses 19.
- Figures 25 and 26 show an orifice 45 similar to the orifice shown in Figure 20, with five lobes 17 and five triangular radially extending recess slots 19 formed in an orifice thermoplastic shelf 151.
- FIG. 27 shows a single trap door embodiment 160 that has an orifice 45 formed between the trap door 161 and the stationary part 163 and particularly between a lobe 165 formed on the stationary part and lobes 167 formed on the trap door.
- the trap door swings inward, around living hinge 169. Upward travel is limited by lugs 173 on the stationary part 163 that overlap sides 171 of the trap door 161.
- a central depression 175 formed by depressions 177 and 179 in the stationary part and trap door allow part of the next towelette to remain above the orifice 45 when the cover is closed.
- the trap door may flip up or down and may be snapped into its operative position in which the top of a towelette extends through orifice 45.
- the embodiment 160, shown in Figure 27 is similar to the trap door shown in Figures 1-4, except that it has only one flip down door instead of two. This single trap door could also flip up as well as down. This additional single door that flips down or up enables the innermost towelette, from a roll, to be started through the orifice.
- the rim 181 on cover 25 tightly fits within opening 183 in the cap 160 to seal the container.
- a dual trap door embodiment of the invention is generally referred to by the numeral 185.
- a container 3 has an open upper end 5 that is configured to receive a complementary lower end 7 of the cylindrical wall 9 of the dispenser 185.
- the dispensing top 11 has two trap doors 187, 189 pivoted on living hinges 15.
- One trap door 187 has a dish shape with five product -engaging lobes 191 and with enlarged radial recesses 193.
- the other door 189 does not have any product-engaging regions.
- An orifice 195 is located completely on one trap door 187.
- This trap door 187 has a slit 197 for easy threading of a towelette 43 from a roll 44. Both doors 187, 189 open to allow a user to reach into the container 3 and thread the next towelette 43 through the orifice 195.
- a cover 25 with a lifting tab 27 is joined with the top 11 about a living hinge 29.
- the tab 27 lies within a recess 31 when closed.
- an inward-extending tab 33 cooperates with a rim 35 on the top of the container and extends between two living hinges 37 to assist in holding the cover 25 fully opened or fully closed.
- Door lock stops 39 extend inward from the central opening 41 to prevent upward travel of the dish-shaped halves 13.
- Towelettes in the roll 44 are joined together by four or five small bridges.
- the lobes 191 and radial recesses 193 grip and slow the next adjacent towelette while the bridges rupture by continued pulling of the first towelette.
- the result is that the second towelette protrudes slightly through the opening 195 so that it may be gripped between a thumb and index finger when the next towelette is desired.
- the cover 25 is snapped into closed position, retaining the moisture in the towelettes.
- a cap 199 has a sidewall 9 and a single inward extending trap door 201, in which an orifice 203 is formed.
- the trap door 201 is connected to the container via a living hinge 209.
- the trap door 201 has stiffening ribs 211 on the underside of the trap door 201 for added structural support.
- a large opening 205 is provided in the cap 199 through which the innermost towelette 43 in the underlying roll 44 may be grasped and slid laterally through a slot 207 into the orifice 203.
- the trap door 201 opens by pivoting down along the living hinge 209 during towelette retrieval and snaps back into position with door locks 39 for dispensing.
- the opening of the trap door 201 allows for easier access to the roll of towelettes 44.
- a cover 25 is mounted on a living hinge 29 for closing the cap 199 and the underlying container.
