A package for holding an article has a front portion with a sheet generally defining a plane and has an outer rim. The package also has a back portion with an area and an outer periphery. The back portion is configured to be secured to said front portion. An inner opening is defined by the back portion so that the inner opening has an area substantially smaller than the area of the back portion. A separately formed first blister is shaped for defining a first pocket configured for receiving at least a portion of the article. The first blister also has a peripheral edge configured for attachment to the back portion in a region of the inner opening of the back portion.

Antipilferage package and method for making same

A package tray configured for use with at least one other such tray in forming reclosable enclosed packages includes a recess portion having an upper edge, a flange portion projecting from the upper edge and having upper and lower sides, at least one snap fastener of a first type located on the flange portion, and at least one snap fastener of a second type located on the flange portion in spaced relationship to the at least one fastener of the first type. Each of the first and second type fasteners is configured to be fastenable on both said upper and lower sides of said flange portion to opposing fasteners of like package trays. The first and second type fasteners are disposed on the flange portion so that when multiples of the package trays are placed in vertically stacked relationship, at least one opposing pair of the fasteners on adjacent trays engage each other to secure the trays together in one of a nested and an opposing relationship.

Package tray having reversible nesting and enclosing fastening feature

Compositions useful in the manufacture of soft, heat sealable films and sheeting material of improved strength are prepared from blends of about 30 to about 80 wt. % of ethylene - methyl acrylate copolymer (EMA) and about 20 to about 70 wt. % of very low density polyethylene (VLDPE) having a density in the range between about 0.902 and about 0.910 gm/cc.

Novel film compositions

A thermoformed package/dispenser for bbs and other kinds of small balls has a cover rotatably mounted on a cup-shaped base to close the package or convert it into a dispenser. Detent stop structure is built in integrally with the base and cover to hold the cover in a desired open or closed package position. A knockout may be provided in the cover to package and dispense balls larger than those for which the package was primarily designed. Interlocking peripheral flanges demountably hold base and cover together with friction assured to hold the cover in a predetermined position. At least a portion of the package may be transparent so that the ball load may be observed.

Dispensing display package for small balls

Compositions useful in the manufacture of soft, heat sealable films and sheeting material of improved strength are prepared from blends of about 30 to about 80 wt. % of ethylene-methyl acrylate copolymer (EMA) and about 20 to about 70 wt. % of very low density polyethylene (VLDPE) having a density in the range between about 0.902 and about 0.910 gm/cc.

A closure for containers of various sizes and configurations. The closure comprises of a cover member, a flange or similar structure for attaching the cover member to a container, and a slideway formed in the cover member with a slide disposed therewithin, slideable to cover and uncover a hole formed in the cover member in the slideway. The slide is mounted in the slideway such that it normally is firmly retained within the slideway. Detents may be formed in the side of the slideway with corresponding protrusions on the other member to temporarily position the slide in one of several locations long the slideway.
