FIG. 1 illustrates one embodiment of theouter packing bag 10 disclosed by the present application. Theouter packaging bag 10 includes atop edge 12 and abottom edge 14 that is generally parallel with thetop edge 12. Thepackaging bag 10 also includes afirst side 16 and asecond side 18 extending between thetop edge 12 and thebottom edge 14 that are generally perpendicular to thetop edge 12 andbottom edge 14 of theouter packaging bag 10. As will be understood, it is envisioned that alternative embodiments ofouter packaging bags 10 that are governed by the principles of the present application can be any size or shape required by the user, such as, but not limited to, a square shape, a rectangular shape, a circular shape or a triangular shape. - The
outer packaging bag 10 will also include a peg hole or opening 20. In the embodiment illustrated inFIG. 1 , thepeg hole 20 has a generally circular shape and is located generally offset from thetop end 12 of theouter packaging bag 10 and generally centered in-between thefirst side 16 andsecond side 18 of theouter packaging bag 10 or any other configurable shape, as desired. - As will be understood, other embodiments of the
outer packaging bag 10 may include apeg hole 20 having any size and shape desired by a user, such as but not limited to, a square shape, a rectangular shape, a circular shape or a triangular shape or any other configurable shape as desired. As will also be understood, the position of thepeg hole 20 of theouter packaging bag 10 can be located at any position on theouter packaging shell 10 as needed to align thepeg hole 20 with an opening 29 of the retail packaging 26 (seeFIG. 3 ), such as but not limited to, a corner of theouter packaging bag 10, near the middle of theouter packaging bag 10, or offset from thetop end 12,bottom end 14,first side 16, andsecond side 18 of theouter packaging bag 10. - As also illustrated in
FIG. 1 , theouter packaging bag 10 includes a firstperforated line 22 formed therein that is offset from thetop end 12 of theouter packaging bag 10 and extends between thefirst side 16 and thesecond side 18 of theouter packaging bag 10, such that theperforated line 22 abuts against opposing sides of thepeg hole 20. The embodiment of theouter packaging bag 10 illustrated inFIG. 1 also has a secondperforated line 24 formed therein that is generally perpendicular to the firstperforated line 22 and extends between thetop end 12 of theouter packaging bag 10 and thepeg hole 20. - As will be understood, it is envisioned that other embodiments of
outer packaging bags 10 governed by the principles of the present application may have any number of perforated lines formed therein on theouter packaging bag 10, such as, but not limited to, perforated lines around the edges or offset from thetop end 12, thebottom end 14, thefirst side 16, and thesecond side 18 of theouter packaging bag 10. - It is also envisioned that other embodiments may have a multitude of perforated lines that are spaced apart and extend between the
top end 12 andbottom end 14 or thefirst side 16 and sendside 18 of theouter packaging bag 10, such that a user can remove only a portion of theouter packaging bag 10 by deciding which perforated line to tear on theouter packaging bag 10. -
FIG. 2 illustrates another embodiment of anouter packaging bag 10 according to one aspect of the present application. The embodiment of theouter packaging bag 10 illustrated inFIG. 2 includes all of the same features as the embodiment of the outer packaging bag illustrated inFIG. 1 except the embodiment of the outer packaging bag illustrated inFIG. 2 does not have a secondperforated line 24. - Turning to
FIGS. 2-7 showing an embodiment of the outer packaging bag according to one aspect of the present application. The outer packaging bag is illustrated enclosing aretail packaging 26 that is securing a number ofretail items 28 in place. In the illustrated embodiment, theouter packaging bag 10 theretail packaging 26 andretail items 28 have been placed within theouter packaging bag 10, such that theouter packaging bag 10 is not integrally coupled to theretail packaging 26 orretail items 28. - In an alternative embodiment, it is envisioned that that
outer packaging bag 10 is integrally formed with theretail packaging 26 of aretail item 28, such that theretail packaging 26 incorporates an embodiment of theouter packaging bag 10 governed by the principles of the present application. - In another embodiment, it is envisioned that the
outer packaging bag 10 will be integrally coupled to the pre-existingretail packaging 26 of aretail item 28. Theouter packaging bag 10 can be integrally coupled to the pre-existingretail packaging 26 of aretail item 28 by any means generally known in the art such as, but not limited to, an adhesive or a mechanically coupling means such as, but not limited to, staples or the like. - The illustrated embodiment of the
outer packing bag 10 is shown enclosingretail packaging 26 with anopening 29 extending through theretail packaging 26. In the illustrated embodiment, thepeg hole 20 of theouter packaging bag 10 is configured to align with theopening 29 of theretail packaging 26 when theretail packaging 26 is enclosed by theouter packaging bag 10. - As best illustrated in
FIGS. 5-8 , theretail packaging 26 that is enclosed by theouter packaging bag 10 can be removably coupled to aretail display 30 by positioning thepeg hole 20 of theouter packaging bag 10 and theopening 29 of theretail packaging 26 to align with one of the plurality ofpegs 32 that extends from theretail display 30 and then inserting one of the plurality ofpegs 32 from theretail display 30 through both thepeg hole 20 of theouter packaging bag 10 and theopening 29 of theretail packaging 26 until theouter packaging bag 10 and theretail packaging 26 are secured on theretail display 30 by thepeg 32. - Once the
retail packaging 26 has been removably coupled to one of the plurality ofpegs 32 on theretail display 30, theouter packaging bag 10 can be removed from theretail packaging 26 by grasping theouter packaging bag 10 and applying enough linear force on theouter packaging bag 10 to tear theouter packaging bag 10 at the firstperforated line 22 and/or the secondperforated line 24 of theouter packaging bag 10. Removing theouter packaging bag 10 by tearing it away at the first and/or secondperforated lines retail packaging 26 and theretail items 28 on thepeg 32 of theretail display 30. - As will be understood, embodiments of the
outer packaging bag 10 governed by the principles of the present application can be made from any type of material that is generally known in the art retail packaging, such as, but not limited to, any type of plastic material or any other type of synthetic or man-made material, any type of paper material, or any other type of natural material. As will also be understood, embodiments of theouter packaging bag 10 governed by the principles of the present application can come in any size or shape required to enclose any type ofretail packaging 26 orretail item 28 generally known in the art. - As will also be understood, other embodiments of the
outer packing bag 10 can include any number, size, shape, of peg holes 20 that are required to correspond with any type ofopening 29 in anyretail packaging 26 orretail item 28 generally known in the art, such as, but not limited to any hook, mount, or aperture used to removably couple a piece orretail packaging 26 orretail item 28 from any type of mount used on aretail display 30, such as, by not limited to any type of wire, hook, or lip used to removably coupleretail packaging 26 orretail items 28 to aretail display 30. - All references, including publications, patent applications, and patents cited herein are hereby incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each reference were individually and specifically indicated to be incorporated by reference and were set forth in its entirety herein.
