  • Patent number: 9845938
    Abstract: A flashlight is protected from damage due to shock such as occurs when a flashlight is dropped, crushed or otherwise physically abused. A plastic molding can be attached to either the front or rear portion of a flashlight or to both portions to resiliently absorb shock forces. A series of thin fins projects axially outwardly from the molding to resiliently deform upon impact so as to absorb shock and distribute the shock around the ends of the flashlight and to reduce stress concentrations around the ends of the flashlight. A series of axially-extending and radially-extending ribs further protects the flashlight from axially and radially-directed shock forces and further absorb shock forces. An optional safety crush or clearance zone can be provided between each shock absorber and the flashlight.

  • Patent number: 9821942
    Abstract: A retail display card holds a product such as a flashlight in a tilted or skewed orientation with respect to the general plane of the top and bottom surfaces of the display card. In this manner, substantially the entire front lens of the flashlight is held above the plane of the card and substantially the entire rear on-off switch of the flashlight is held below the plane of the card. This allows a potential purchaser to easily access the on-off switch and view a substantially unobstructed beam of light produced by the flashlight.
