Abstract: A display package for a bottle is presented having a relatively short base section and a folded wrap-around section. The base section has a top with a hole adapted for receiving the bottom of the bottle. The wrap-around section extends from the back of the base section over the top of the bottle and down to the front of the base. The top of the wrap-around section is shorter in length than the largest diameter of the bottle displayed in the packaging. A window in the front of the wrap-around section allows the upper-front portion of the bottle to extend through the window. In addition, the wrap-around section leaves majority of the bottle exposed through the open sides of the tent-like structure formed by the wrap-around section.

Abstract: A two part paperboard container having adjustable vents is described and is intended for use with a sublimable composition. The container consists of an inner tubular member and an outer tubular sleeve member, both of a truncated, conical configuration. The inner tubular member, which is adapted to receive the sublimable composition, is disposed within the outer sleeve member. The outer surface of the inner member is in frictional engagement with the inner surface of the outer sleeve member which functions to seal the carton. The inner member may be rotated relative to the outer sleeve member to at least partially align apertures provided in the upper cover portions of the tubular members, thereby exposing the composition to the air enabling it to sublime. Continued relative rotation of the tubular members will reset the apertures in the upper cover portions in a nonaligned position, thereby resealing the container.

Abstract: A paperboard carton and blanks therefor formed from a top unit and a bottom unit which are relatively slidable. A locking mechanism prevents the units from being fully separated. This locking mechanism comprises a locking flap hingedly coupled to and folded against a side wall on either of the top and bottom units and a corresponding stop member formed on an opposed side wall of the other of the top and bottom units. The stop member is comprised of two side glue flaps extending integrally from two adjacent side walls, each having a tab extending therefrom. The tabs engage the distal end of the folded locking flap to prevent full separation. Advantageously, the locking flap is trapezoidal and the side glue flaps form a trapezoidal recess with the tabs forming the smaller base thereof. An air freshener material or insect poison can be located inside the carton.

Abstract: A shirt card, formed of a unitary blank of paperboard, for supporting a shirt during transport and display. The shirt is secured to the card without the necessity of pins. The shirt card is foldable and is self-locking in the folded position. The card comprises a main panel, a central fold line separating the main panel into top and bottom sections, a collar receiving extension at the top edge of the top section, a pair of slits receiving the sleeves of the shirt, a second set of slits receiving the sides of the shirt, and a tab and slit locking mechanism to lock the main panel in the folded position. The collar receiving extension can have a pair of opposed wing flaps for fully supporting the collar. A clothes hanger is received in the body portion of the shirt to support the shirt card with the shirt attached thereto.

Abstract: A tray formed of a unitary blank of paperboard for supporting food during a heating process. The tray comprises a bottom wall, two side walls, and two end walls with tabs interlocking the side and end walls. Tabs on the end walls project through slits in the bottom wall to form legs which support the wall in an elevated position. Interior flaps in the main wall lock the end wall tabs in place. The tray is set up without the use of adhesive. Apertures in the bottom wall allow fluid, such as water vapor in the form of steam escaping from the heated food, to flow through the tray.

Abstract: A paperboard container for use in a microwave oven to cook an expandable food has an octagonal bottom support panel, upwardly and outwardly extending trapezoidal side panels connected to each edge of the bottom support panel, and a pop-up cover of overlapped, semi-ovoid top panels. A top panel is foldably connected to an edge of each of the side panels and a circular seal is removably attached to one of the top panels and an opposed one thereof to close the container. Upon removal of the seal, the top panels assume a substantially upright position as extensions of the side panels to enclose and support, along with the bottom support panel and side panels, an expanded food package.

Abstract: An air freshener carton includes a regular, polygonally-shaped lower unit and a complementally shaped upper unit which are movable relative to each other along a common, longitudinal axis. The upper unit has a plurality of openings spaced about its top wall which are selectively opened by relative movement of the units away from each to enable air to circulate through the openings to contact and diffuse an active air freshener material housed within the lower unit.

Abstract: Disclosed is a carton having adjustable air passages and a blank for forming it. The carton is formed of slidable inner and outer tapered sleeves having complementary spaced openings. The openings are positioned to provide open air passages when the inner sleeve is slid to a first position, and to close the passages as the inner sleeve is moved toward a second position. A stop is provided in the outer sleeve to limit movement of the inner sleeve when slid to the first position, while the taper between the sleeves precludes undue movement of the sleeves past the second position. A shiftable tab is also provided on the outer sleeve to block sliding movement of the sleeves relative to each other until the carton is ready for initial use.

Abstract: Disclosed are a carton having adjustable air passages and a blank for forming it. The carton is formed of slidable inner and outer tapered sleeves having complementary spaced openings. The openings are positioned to provide open air passages when the inner sleeve is slid to a first position, and to close the passages as the inner sleeve is moved toward a second position. This carton is especially adapted to hold an air freshening medium during storage and to permit controlled exposure of it to the air during use.

Abstract: A product display carton has four rectangular wall panels forming a rectangular tube. Retaining panels are connected to the wall panels only at the front edges of two opposing wall panels. The retaining panels, each of which has a product-receiving cutout, extend into the interior of the rectangular tube. The resiliency of the panel material causes the free edges of the retaining panels to be biased toward one another, causing an inserted product to be securely retained in the cutouts.

Abstract: A one-piece carton for receiving an insert of air freshener material or the like includes a front panel and flanking back panels having a continuous curved lower edge. The common side edges of the front panel and back panels are defined by straight fold lines which converge as they extend away from the lower edge. Each of the panels includes a top flap which is shorter than the upper edge of the panel from which it extends. The free edges of the back panels are secured in overlapping relationship by an adhesive strip on one of the panels. The top flaps are folded inwardly and secured in overlapping relationship to form a rectangular top closure. An insert of air freshener material may be loaded into the carton through the generally circular, open bottom.
