Publication number: 20100230315Abstract: A display pack for a consumer product is made of two sheets of corrugated cardboard and a clear plastic container with a flat insertion portion sandwiched between the cardboard sheets. The two cardboard sheets are adhered together in a peripheral area of the package by a heat sensitive adhesive, and the corrugations of the cardboard sheets are crushed and flattened in the peripheral area. To seal the package, the peripheral area of the two cardboard sheets is subject to sufficient pressure to crush the corrugations inside the cardboard sheets and flatten them in that area. Heat is applied to the outer side of the cardboard sheets in the peripheral area and conducted to the adhesive material between the two sheets to activate the adhesive material. A sealer machine with a heated sealing press or parallel sets of heated rollers may be used to carry out the sealing process.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2010Publication date: September 16, 2010Inventor: Joseph Nazari

Patent number: 5927505Abstract: Substrates having a wide range of thickness, and intended to be overmolded with a plastic package body, are accommodated in a common mold. The top surface of the substrate is provided with a dam structure, which may be formed as an additional layer on the substrate, and which is preferably in the form of a square ring. A groove (channel) is machined (e.g., by routing) into the surface of the dam structure. The top mold half, having a cavity for forming the package body, is provided with a sealing structure at the periphery of the cavity. The sealing structure has a ridge fitting into the channel of the dam structure. The depth of the groove in the dam structure is readily adjusted to ensure uniform clamping pressure of the top mold half on the substrate, so that liquid molding compound is contained within the cavity and so that undue pressure is not exerted on the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 1997Date of Patent: July 27, 1999Assignee: LSI Logic CorporationInventors: Chok J.
