Abstract: A blister package for storing an array of oral hygiene applicators, each formed from a circular base having bristles anchored thereon which are impregnated with a dentifrice. The underside of the base is coated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive whereby when the applicator is adhered to a fingertip of a user, it then functions as a toothbrush. The package includes a card of synthetic plastic film material molded to define an array of blisters. Sealed to the card is a backing sheet having an array of applicators releasably adhered thereto, each applicator being nested in a respective blister in the card. The package is divided by lines of perforation into separable cells, each enclosing an applicator. In use, a cell is separated from the package, its backing sheet is peeled off to expose the applicator, and the applicator is then detached from the sheet and applied to a finger tip of the user.

Abstract: As to a packing container, when a corrugated cardboard sheet where metallic foil is stuck on one of its sides is assembled so as to have a box-shape, an edge left for applying paste and a side on which the edge left for applying paste is stuck are connected by metallic foil tape so that metallic foil on the sides inside the box joins along an internal circumferential surface of the box. As a result, since a closed path is formed along the internal circumference of the packing container, partial charging of a packing container is prevented by short-circuiting or shielding charged static electricity, and an electrostatic breakdown of contents, such as a semiconductor device, is prevented.

Abstract: A display package having one or more media items retained therein. The display package is convertible between a collapsed position which is used for shipment and storage of the media item, an open display position for displaying the media item on a generally flat surface, and a compact display position which allows the media item to be displayed in a number of positions, such as in receiving groove on a store shelf to operate as a shelf talker. The display package has a base having opposing halves each formed of a pair of spaced apart upper and lower panels which are hingedly connected together along their respective outer ends. The upper panels also hingedly connected together along their inner ends. Central portions of the inner ends of the upper panels are spaced part from each other to define therebetween an elongate slot. An upright body connected to the base selectively extends upwardly through the slot when in one of the display positions.

Abstract: In an encasing mechanism for a cassette enclosing a magnetic record medium, the mechanism provides a cassette with a recess formed at a first surface of the cassette to identify first and second surfaces and first and second edges of the cassette, a case main body, and a cover coupled rotatably to the case main body to be openable relative to the case main body, in which the cover includes at least one projection formed on an inner surface of the cover. The projection is fitted into the recess so that the cover is closed relative to the case main body in an inserted arrangement of the cassette into the case main body. The encasing mechanism is capable of encasing the magnetic record medium cassette only when the cassette is correctly positioned in the case main body.
