A carton including a front wall, a rear wall, a right and a left side walls, a bottom wall and a top wall. A longitudinal partition flap is formed by cutting an approximately central portion of the front wall in a U shape. A partition wall of a cross in a plan view consisting of a lateral partition wall, a longitudinal partition wall and the longitudinal partition flap is integrally provided inside the carton. Each side wall has a perforated cut line continuous with an outer end of the perforated tear part formed at each side of the U-shaped cutout. Contents in the carton are exposed and displayed by removing an upper part of the carton along the perforated tear part. The contents are supported by the cross-shaped partition wall and therefore prevented from lying even when decreased in number.
The embodiments of the present invention provide a blank foldable material that may be configured to form a display container. When formed, the display container is a single piece display container with sufficient structural integrity to withstand considerable weight stacked thereon. The blank is configured to form a display container that includes a pedestal portion that includes a double thickness central support and a cover portion that provides a stacking surface. The cover portion may be included or it may be substantially horizontal. Also, the display container includes a substantially vertical back portion to provide additional support for items placed upon the stacking surface. The container is easy us manufacture and assemble, yet of relatively high strength.
A carton having a dispensing feature adapted for permitting the removal of articles from within the carton. Top and bottom opposed walls are interconnected by a pair of side walls to form a tubular body. An article dispenser is provided by a removable portion defined by an opening in the carton for exposing articles for removal. The removable portion is at least partially defined by a frangible line extending across each side wall to opposite side edges of the bottom wall. A portion of the frangible line extends at least partially along the adjacent end edge of the bottom wall and then extends to the opposite side edges of the bottom wall. A buttress arrangement for enhancing the stacking strength of the carton is formed from the distal portion of at least one side end flap.
A method and apparatus for packaging articles such as pouches which do not have rigid structures. The method includes the steps of placing first and second sets of the articles onto spaced apart loading panels of a carton blank so that the article sets are spaced apart with an unloaded further panel of the blank disposed between the article sets, raising the spaced loading panels together with the respective sets of articles to transfer the sets of articles to the unloaded further panel so that the unloaded further panel becomes the loaded base of the carton and the loading panels become opposed side panels of the carton.
The carton has a front panel provided with a dispensing opening. Partitions extend from an inner back panel to organize the contents of the container. A shelf is formed at the bottom edge of the dispensing opening to facilitate the dispensing of the contents. A cover panel extends over the front panel and provides protection for the contents during shipping. For display and dispensing purposes, the cover panel is removed to create a suitable display container.
A carton with an improved dispenser at one of the carton which preserves the integrity of the carton when the carton is opened by permitting a bottom end flap attached to the bottom panel to remain in place and also a portion of each side end flap that is adjacent to the bottom end flap. This dispenser may also provide a safety net for the first container that is automatically dispensed when the carton is opened.
