Garden hand tool hanging display package

Abstract

A hangable display package that contains a portion of a hand tool in a manner that reveals the hand tool while still contained in the package hanging on a display hook. An outer skin having a front panel, a back panel, and a side panel covers a filler material having a thickness equivalent to the thickness of the tool contained in the display. The front panel and filler are cut to create a cavity that conforms to the size and shape of a part of the hand tool. The front panel has a clear plastic window over the cavity, allowing display of the tool. The tool is held in the display package by the forces exerted on the tool by the filler material and the front and back panels when inserted into the cavity of the display package.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION1. Field of the Invention[0001]The present invention relates generally to improvements in hand tool display hangers and more particularly pertains to new and improved hanging display packages for garden hand tools.2. Description of Related Art[0002]Hand tools which are displayed for sale are generally fixed on display hangers. The structure of such display hangers vary in complexity and aesthetics. Published U.S. Application No. US 2015 / 0209556 for a hand tool display hanger requires a plurality of different parts which must fit together precisely in order to display a hand tool. Other examples of hand tool display hangers are shown in U.S. Pat. No. 7,648,029. The rotatable anti-theft tool rack shown requires that multiple parts, such as a tool rack body and an inserting body for installation through the tool, is used. The inserting body is attached to the rack body. Precision parts are again required. A hanging-type demonstration packing box is shown in C...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0004]An efficient cost-effective hangable display package for garden hand tools, like clippers, has an outer skin that has a front panel, a back panel, and a side panel. The side panel defines the thickness of the display package. A filler material, like corrugated cardboard, fills the space between the front panel and back panel. A portion of the front panel and filler material is cut out to create a cavity that matches the shape of part of a hand tool to be held by the display package. A plastic window covers the cut out portion on the front panel. When inserted into the cavity of the package, the front panel window and back panel exert a grasping force on the front and back of the hand tool. The filler material exerts a grasping force on the sides of the hand tool. A cut out slot in the package allows for suspension of the display package on a display rack.

Problems solved by technology

As can be seen in these hand tool displays, require manufacture and assembly of the displays that can be time-consuming and costly.

These display devices for hand tools tend to be complicated and expensive to put together.

They seem to be lacking in aesthetics, especially when it comes to a full display of the tool being offered for sale.
