Patent number: 5702002Abstract: The packaging carton of the packed electric lamp has an incision line through diagonally opposed edges in respective side walls adjoining these edges. Boundary lines extend in each of the two side walls from said incision line to a point P of the edge, which point lies closer to the first end, so as to define together with the incision line a region of said walls which is flipped over as a folded portion into the carton, thus narrowing the carton. The lamp may be readily machine packed into the carton, starting from the back of the carton, and displays essential distinguishing marks of its bulb while the packaging remains closed.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 1996Date of Patent: December 30, 1997Assignee: U.S. Philips CorporationInventors: Guy N.

A graphic element is visible from the outside of the display and storage container apparatus through a transparent outer wall member. A cover assembly is supported by the transparent outer wall members for covering the graphic reception region and the interior storage space. A rotation assembly can be attached to the bottom surface of the base member.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 1996Date of Patent: May 20, 1997Inventor: E. Laura Wells
