CARD FOR CORN PADS AND THE LIKE Filed April 26, 1955 p 4|? W m A A Zia dam W. 6292011.
Patented Apr. 14, 1936 UNITED STATES ATENT OFFICE This invention relates to improvements in aof the card together with a. pad for sales purcard for corn pads, bunion pads, and other medical pads or similar devices, the card being in the nature of a backing or mounting card to function as a carrying medium for a plurality of the pads.
Inthe past, many and various cards or carrying mediums for medical pads and similar items have been developed to function either as a backing member in an individual package of the pads or to function as a display member. In many cases, the pads had to be put up separately andthen so many of the separately packaged pads placed in a box or other carton. In no instance of which I am aware, were the pads ever mounted upon a card which functioned both as acarrying medium for a plurality of' the pads in an individual package for sales purposes, and at the-same time function as a display card for the purpose of stimulating sales. Further, all of these formerly known cards and carrying mediums have proven objectionable in that they could; not be manufactured and. used with sufiicient economy, and required an objectionable 5 amount of labor to attach the pads thereto.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a simple and economical mounting card for a plurality of. medical pads or the like, capa, ble'of functioning as an ordinary carrying mem- 30 her for a plurality of A the padsfor an individual sales; package, or as a display. card for stimulating, sales.
Another; object of this invention is the provision of.a mounting card of' the character de- 35 scribed herein which is extremely simple in construction and economical to manufacture, and which is, arranged to .directly support a plurality of medical pads or similar devices Without resort to. the adhesived surface of a pad or any ex- 40 traneous means to hold the pad upon the card.
Also. an, object of this-invention is the provision ofla mountingcard which may be die-cut sothat portions of the cards may be pressed out of; the. planeof the card for engagement with 45 devices tobe. heldby the card.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a mounting card for medical pads or the like having apertures or recesses therein, the cardbeing so constructed that a portion of the 50 card may be readily inserted in the recess or aperture to engage a pad and hold the same upon the card.
' Still a further object of this invention is to provide amounting card for medical pads and 55 the like arranged for ready removal of a portion poses, or to make it possible to carry a pad from place to place with adequate protection for: the adhesived surface of the pad.
It is also an aim of this invention to provide 5 a mounting card for medical pads and the like arranged to adequately protect the adhesived surfaces of the pads and yet necessitate neither deterioration nor mutilation of these surfaces I whatsoever. l0
While some of the more salient features, characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been above pointed out, others will become apparent from the following disclosures.
The invention includes these and other fea- 1-5 tures of construction hereinafter described and shown in a preferred form in the drawing, as more particularly indicated by the claims.
On the drawing? 7 Figure 1 is a front view' of a mounting card g embodying principles of the present invention, showing the same carrying a plurality of corn or bunion pads.
Figure 2 is a front view of the mounting card itself prior to the application of the pads.
Figure 3 is a transverse vertical sectional view through the card and one of the pads, showing the pad placed in position upon the card just prior to attachment to the card.
Figure 4 is a transverse vertical sectional View through the structure of Figure 1 taken substantially as indicated by the line IV-IV of Figure 1.
As shown on the drawing:
The illustrated embodiment of the present invention is shown in conjunction with a corn or bullion pad 5 comprising a piece of felt or cushioning material having a central aperture 6 for thereception of the injured part of the body, and an undersurface or coating 1 of adhesive ma- 40 terial for attaching the pad to the body of a user. While in this instance the pad 5 is shown as of a general oval contour and is provided with a complete aperture 6 of the gener'alcontour of the pad, it Will be understood that the pad may be of any desired configuration as well.as the aperture. Further, in many cases, it will not be. desirable to have. a. complete aperture, but a recess may be provided. The adhesived surface or coating 1 may be of any desirable character, butin this instance is shown as that type of glue or adhesive substance requiring moistening or Wetting prior toapplication to the body.
The present invention is illustrated as arranged for supporting medical pads or the like having substantially oval recesses or apertures therein, but it is to be distinctly understood that the invention can readily be modified, in an obvious manner as will later appear, to support pads having recesses or apertures therein of substantially any desirable configuration or contour.
In this instance, the present invention is illustrated as comprising a mounting card 8 which may be made of a suitable light cardboard or reasonably heavy paper stock having the required stiffness for the purposes intended. The mounting card may be die-cut in any desirable size or shape.
Arcuate cuts 9 are provided in the mounting card at properly spaced intervals consistent with the mounting of the pads 5. The cuts 9 for each pad are separate from each other, leaving a continuous portion I 0 of the card extending between the'adjacent ends of the cuts. These cuts 9 are preferable of the general configuration of opposite portions of the recess or aperture 6 in one of the pads. Thus, they define a pair of opposed oppositely extending tabs II for each pad.
In mounting a pad upon the card, the pad is first placed against the card over a pair of the tabs II as indicated in Figure 3. It will be seen, also, from the disclosure in Figure 3, that the outer ends of the tabs ll extend slightly beyond the corresponding boundaries of the recess or aperture 6. Accordingly, with the pad held against the mounting card, an application of pressure against the tabs II from the rear of the mounting card results in a sufiicient deflecting of these tabs for their edges to enter the recess or aperture 6, and the inherent resiliency of the tabs will cause their edges to frictionally engage or bite into the material of the pads 5 as indicated at l2 in Figure 4. It is preferable to have the tabs H engage the cushioning portion of the pad 5 above the adhesive coating 1 but not sufliciently far thereabove to detract from the external appearance of the resultant assem' bly. In other words, from a front View (Figure 1) it preferably appears as though the tabs l l were an integral part of the body portion of the card, so that it will be difiicult or practicallyimpossible for the eye of the casual observer to tell that the pads are not glued directly to the mounting card. The desired appearance is that of the tabs ll completely filling the aperture or the opposed portions of the aperture which they engage, with the engagement at such a depth from the top of the aperture so that the tabs appear to be a part of the background. With such mounting, it will be apparent that the card will provide a substantially perfect background for displaying the pads.
The card, of course, may be made of any desirable size to accommodate any desirable number of pads and is of sufficient stiffness so that a card of pads may be removed from its individual wrapper, such as an envelope or box, and placed in position for display purposes. On the other hand, it is equally as feasible to display a larger card holding a number of pads and sell one or more pads directly from the card.
To this end, the card is preferably provided with scored lines or lines of perforation l3 between the pads. It is a simple expedient, then, to tear the card so as to remove a desired number of pads, and the adhesived surface 1 of each card is adequately protected by the portion of the card removed. This is also desirable for the purpose of removing one pad with the adhesived surface thereof protected so that the pad may be carried in a pocketbook or other article with no further bother.
From the foregoing, it is apparent that I have provided a display card which may be die-cut, if so desired, and which is exceedingly simple in construction and very economical to manufacture. The card has a dual function in that it properly holds a plurality of medical pads or the like and protects the adhesived surfaces thereof, while at the same time the card may be used for purposes of display. Further, it is not necessary to utilize the adhesived surfaces of the pads in any degree whatsoever to mount the pads upon the card, and. no extraneous attachment means are needed. When the pads are mounted upon the card, the construction provides a perfect background for display purposes.
I am aware that many changes may be made and numerous details of construction may be varied through a wide range without departing from the principles of this invention, and I therefore, do not purpose limiting the patent granted hereon otherwise than is necessitated by the prior art.
I claim as my invention:
