Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides an improved toy vehicle display package that maintains toy vehicle security during shipment and storage while simultaneously providing display features in a useable display package. The package comprises a cylindrical body with a window aperture, a top and a bottom, a base receivable within the bottom of the body, and a cap received upon the top of the body. A plurality of tabs are supported by the body and extend through slots in the body. The tabs bend to secure the base to the body and are also removable. This design ensures that the toy vehicle display package is both secure and easy to use."

Problems solved by technology

Thus, toy vehicles have been provided which have varied from simple low-cost passive toy vehicles to highly detailed expensive and complex designs.

Embodiment Construction

[0022]FIG. 1 sets forth a front view of a toy vehicle display package constructed in accordance with the present invention and generally referenced by numeral 10. By way of overview, package 10 defines a generally cylindrical shaped package within which a toy vehicle 60 is secured and displayed. Package 10 further includes a realistic cap 16 which is configured to resemble a racing tire and racing type rim or wheel.

[0023] More specifically, package 10 includes a cylindrical body 11 having a base 12 on the bottom portion thereof A cap 13 is received upon the upper portion of body 11 and secured thereto by a tight-fit slip-on attachment. Cap 13 is fabricated to provide a simulated rubber tire 17 having a simulated tread 18 formed thereon.

[0024] In accordance with the preferred fabrication of the present invention, body 11 which is made of an opaque material such as cardboard or particle board of the like defines a large window aperture 14 which supports a transparent plastic cover 1...

Abstract

A toy vehicle package includes a generally cylindrical body having a removable base on the lower end thereof and a removable cap on the upper end thereof. The base includes a vehicle platform which receives and supports a toy vehicle. The package body defines a transparent window through which the toy vehicle may be viewed. A plurality of removable breakaway tabs extend downwardly from the toy vehicle package body through slots defined in the base to provide attachment of the base. Once the tabs have been removed, the base is then rotateably positionable within the toy vehicle package body.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] This invention relates generally to toy products and particularly to packaging design for use therewith. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Toy vehicles comprise a well-known and long-lasting species of toys. As such, toy vehicles have proven to be extremely popular and have survived for a great number of years among consumers. Not surprisingly, practitioners in the toy arts have responded to this continuing need and popularity by providing a substantially endless variety of toy vehicle types and sizes. [0003] Thus, toy vehicles have been provided which have varied from simple low-cost passive toy vehicles to highly detailed expensive and complex designs. Many toy vehicles are provided with a self contained power source such as a battery driven electric motor and gear mechanism while others are unpowered and are basically free-wheeling. Many toy vehicles are fabricated with sufficient creativity and detail in appearance that they are more like vehicle m...
