Abstract: A childproof and senior friendly packaging container having a housing defining a chamber for removably receiving a blister card or sheet. The blister card includes a blister or node on its end to engage a pair of slots within the housing sleeve to retain the blister card in a stored position and an extended position. The node may include a sloped rear surface to allow the blister card to be returned to a stored position. Squeezing the sides of the housing about the interior slot biases both the top panel of the housing and the panels defining the slot to release the node from the slot to allow the blister card to be withdrawn. A removable display panel may be attached to the packaging container to facilitate placement of the container in point of purchase displays while not interfering with the ability of consumers to access the contents. A cover with a tuck flap may be used to selectively cover the open end of the packaging container.

Abstract: A package for dispensing pills that is childproof yet senior-friendly. The package includes a housing, which may be substantially tear-resistant, that encloses one or more blisters. In one embodiment, the cavities of the blisters are positioned such that pills or other objects are dispensed into a chamber. An object dispensing opening associated with the chamber is selectively covered by a childproof closure member. In various embodiments, the childproof closure may be rotationally or slidingly connected to the package to move between a closed position and an open position to selectively permit dispensing of the objects.

Abstract: A blister pack for dispensing pills that is childproof yet senior-friendly. The blister pack includes a housing, which may be substantially tear-resistant, that encloses one or more blisters contained on a blister sheet. In one embodiment, the cavities of the blisters are positioned such that pills or other objects are dispensed into a chamber. A neck extends outward from the chamber to permit a childproof cap to be removably attached thereto to permit the selective dispensing of the pills in a controlled fashion. In another embodiment, the blister pack may include a chamber for dispensing a first type of pill and a plurality of blisters not aligned with the chamber for dispensing a second type of pill.

Abstract: A packaging container for displaying and/or housing products that includes a first tray that includes a chamber defined by one or more walls and at least one raised area extending around and separate from the walls of the chamber. The tray may be substantially opaque to display graphics and/or to prevent viewing of the contents and may be seamless. A cover member is attachable to the bottom of the first tray to cover the chamber and its contents. The cover member may comprise, among other things, a second tray or a blank or sheet of material.

Abstract: A blister pack for dispensing pills that is childproof yet senior-friendly. The blister pack includes a substantially tear-resistant housing that encloses one or more blisters contained on a blister sheet and surrounded by criss-cross grain material to provide cut or tear resistance in multiple directions. In one embodiment, the cavities of the blisters are positioned such that the pills are aligned at an angle with respect to the corresponding dispensing slots on the housing in their normal position. The blisters are detachably attached to a zipper strip on the blister sheet to prevent undesired rotation of the blisters. Upon removal of the zipper strip, the blisters may be twisted until their pills are substantially aligned with their respective dispensing slot. The blisters may then be depressed to remove the pills from the cavities of the blisters by pushing the pills through the foil sheet that covers the slots.

Abstract: A packaging container for displaying and housing products that is aesthetically pleasing, effective and safe to open. The packaging container may include a substantially tear-resistant housing that encloses a tray that is preferably made from a paper material. The tray is substantially opaque to display graphics and/or to prevent viewing of the contents and may be seamless. The tray also may include at least one raised area extending around the walls of the tray. A second tray may also be used to create a dual-sided tray for housing the products, wherein the second tray may be substantially opaque or substantially transparent. An insert card may be used within the housing to reinforce the container and may be contained by fold-over edges of the housing.

Abstract: A packaging container having a first housing member that includes walls that fit within an area defined by the walls of a second housing member, and a chamber cover that includes an area for housing or displaying goods. In one embodiment, the chamber cover is substantially surrounded by the opening of the first member of the housing, and includes a flange that abuts against the bottom of the first member of the housing to secure the chamber cover with respect to the housing, wherein the cover includes an area for housing or displaying goods. The chamber may also be integrally formed with the first housing member. The housing members may be made from a paper material that can include a substantially tear-resistant material.

Abstract: A clamshell package for displaying and housing products or other objects that is substantially pilfer-resistant, yet safe to open. The clamshell packaging includes a substantially tear-resistant housing that encloses a display chamber by criss-cross grain material to provide cut or tear resistance in multiple directions. The display chamber of the clamshell package may be either substantially transparent to allow for the product to be displayed or substantially opaque display graphics and/or to prevent the contents from being viewed. The chamber is preferably seamless such that it may not be opened without the use of scissors and, when opened, such opening is readily apparent. Furthermore, when cut open, the material used does not form sharp or jagged edges that may pose a danger to anyone handling the package. In addition to clamshell packages, the tear resistant material may also be used in blister packs and other types of packaging.
