  • Patent number: 4194624
    Abstract: A storage receptacle for a multiple adhesive bandage pack includes front and rear walls joined at their lower extremities and defining a trough-shaped compartment therebetween. A flange element is carried by the front wall and extends inwardly therefrom a sufficient distance to overlie at least the front wall of a multiple adhesive bandage pack which is stored within the compartment so as to prevent removal of the pack from the compartment. A plurality of apertures are formed in the front wall of the receptacle to extend therethrough below the flange element. A key member is given a set of studs corresponding in number and arrangement to the number and arrangement of the apertures in the front wall of the receptacle. The studs are insertable through the apertures to thereby engage the front wall of the pack and cause the pack to shift so that the front wall thereof moves from beneath the flange element to thereby permit removal of the pack from the storage receptacle.

  • Patent number: 4131195
    Abstract: A disposable, compactable moisture-impervious package for dispensing a stack of premoistened sheets has a pocket portion and a flap portion, each made of a pliable and compactable moisture-impervious material. The pocket portion has first and second walls adhered to each other to provide a compartment between them for receiving the stack of sheets. The sheets are retained in the compartment with their flat surfaces generally parallel to the first and second walls of the pocket. A dispensing opening is provided in one of the walls of the pocket overlying the flat surfaces of the sheets, and a primary seal for the opening prevents the undesirable evaporation of moisture from the sheets. The flap portion of the package extends from a wall of the pocket portion, and is removably securable over the dispensing opening to provide a secondary moisture-impervious seal after the primary seal has been broken.

  • Patent number: 3982685
    Abstract: A wider and a narrower surface and back half-cut lines are provided adjacent to each other on a wall of a closed carton or container. Carton layers are separated from each other at the surface and back half-cut lines to thereby open the container. When the container is in a closed state, there is no perforated point passing all the way through the wall from the surface to the back or vice versa. Thus, moisture from the outside is prevented from passing into the inside of the container, and yet it is very easy to open the container.
