ABSTRACT:
An open top, multi-compartmented display carton for the displaying and dispensing of upstanding pouches, envelopes or packets, and which includes a mechanically locking bottom wall structure, an apertured or windowed front wall, a back wall, two end walls and at least one partition extending between the front and back walls, with the entire carton structure being folded and glued from a single fiberboard blank. The bottom wall structure of the display carton includes four flaps which are hinged to the lower edges of four adjacent walls of the carton, and wherein at least three of the bottom flaps include tab structure adapted to interengage upon the flaps being superimposed when the carton is in a set-up or assembled condition, and wherein the tabs will form a mechanical locking structured assisted for retention in its locked condition by the weight of the packets located in the carton compartments. When the carton is collapsed into a flattened or knocked-down condition, the tabs on the bottom flaps will disengage to thereby allow the bottom flaps to fold down flat outwardly of the carton. Each carton partition consists of a flap cut out from the material of the front wall and the upper forward edge portion of an adjoining carton side wall and is adapted to be folded rearwardly into the carton so as to contact the interior surface of the carton back wall. The free end of each partition contacting the back wall includes a flap adapted to be glued to the interior surface of the back wall so as to form a multi-compartmented structure within the display carton. A plurality of superimposed filled cartons are frequently held together under a compressive load by a band or web of an encompassing layer of a transparent shrink wrap or stretch wrap film.
