Abstract
Spinnable packages and package assemblies for products are provided. Spinnable packages include a base having a plate with a top surface and an opposed bottom surface, and a protrusion extending from the top surface of the plate. The packages also include a wheel configured to removably secure a plurality of products, the wheel having an aperture extending therethrough, wherein the wheel and the base are sized and shaped such that the wheel is spinnably mountable on the base when the protrusion is positioned in the aperture, such that the wheel is spinnable about a longitudinal axis of the protrusion.
Claims19
A spinnable package assembly, comprising:
- a base, comprising:
- a plate comprising:
- a top surface;
- an opposed bottom surface;
- a first raised platform at a first corner of the top surface of the plate;
- and
- a second raised platform at a second corner of the top surface of the plate,
- wherein the plate is square;
- and
- a protrusion extending from the top surface of the plate;
- and
- a wheel configured to removably secure a plurality of products, the wheel comprising an aperture extending therethrough, wherein the wheel and the base are sized and shaped such that the wheel is spinnably mountable on the base when the protrusion is positioned in the aperture, such that the wheel is spinnable about a longitudinal axis of the protrusion;
- an outer box configured to substantially enclose the base and the wheel, comprising:
- a first face comprising a first cutout;
- a second face adjacent to the first face;
- a third face, wherein the third face is adjacent to the second face and is opposed to the first face;
- a fourth face, wherein the fourth face is adjacent to the third face and is opposed to the second face;
- a bottom face, wherein the bottom face is adjacent to the first face, the second face, the third face, and the fourth face;
- and
- a top face adjacent to the first face,
- wherein the top face is movable between a closed configuration in which the top face is adjacent to the first face, the second face, the third face, and the fourth face, and the top face is opposed to the bottom face, and an open configuration, in which the top face is adjacent to the first face;
- and
- a stabilizing insert securing the protrusion, wherein the wheel is disposed on the stabilizing insert when the wheel is spinnably mounted on the protrusion, and wherein a diameter of the stabilizing insert is substantially equal to a length of the outer box.
