Benefits of technology

[0008]It is an object of the present invention to provide blister pack packaging which is tamper evident, senior friendly, child resistant and capable of adding electronic circuitry.

Problems solved by technology

While such a package is inherently tamper evident unless the whole foil layer is replaced, it is not very child resistant and indeed can prove attractive to some children.
When electronic circuitry is bent, the circuitry can break and render the circuitry useless.

Embodiment Construction

[0036]Referring to the drawings in a greater detail and by reference characters thereto, there is illustrated in FIG. 6 an exploded view of a first embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, there is provided a blister layer 10 which has a plurality of blister pockets 12 formed therein in a conventional manner.

[0037]Designed to be placed on top of a blister layer 10 is a data layer 14. Data layer 14 that may carry pertinent information has cut-outs to receive the blister pockets and diecut perforated ovals 11 formed therein. To this end, data layer 14 is generally of a paperboard material.

[0038]Secured to the underside of blister layer 10 is a rupturable foil layer 16. Such rupturable foil layers are well known in the art.

[0039]A paperboard reinforcing layer 18 is secured to rupturable foil layer 16 by means of a conventional adhesive. Paperboard layer 18 has a first side which lies adjacent to rupturable foil layer 16 and a second exteriorly facing side.

[0040]As is kn...

Abstract

A push and peel child resistant and senior friendly tamper evident package comprising a blister sheet with U cuts for pushing an outer layer of interior tabs, the blister sheet having blister pockets projecting from a front side thereof, a rupturable foil layer being adhered to the blister layer and reinforcing the paperboard material adhered to the foil layer, an inner data layer with diecut oval holes, the paperboard layer having a tear strip formed therein, the tear strip being defined by a cut into the paperboard layer from the side thereof adhered to the foil layer, the cut extending only a certain percentage of the total thickness of the paperboard such that a controlled delamination of the paperboard layer occurs when the tear strip is removed. This provides a precise reinforcement of the foil layer.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a tamper evident, senior friendly and child resistant package of the type operable by means of a combination punch out of the inner card hole or push on the existing hole to release the lead area of the tab on the outer layer and with a full delamination feature tear strip for unsupported foil and a periphery delamination feature for paper.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Blister packs are well known in the art and are widely used to package individual items such as different forms of medication including tablets, capsules and the like. In addition, the packaging of a small amount of liquid in an individual blister is known.[0003]Usually, the item or product is accessed through the rear of the blister pack which is provided with a tear strip.[0004]As aforementioned, there are three different properties which any packaging ideally possesses. The first is that the package should be tamper evident such that there will be prov...
