US 4,315,569 A · Replacement wheel display carton

Abstract

A display carton for a replacement wheel assembly of the type used on a lawn mower, wheelbarrow, spreader, or other garden-type vehicle. The carton is provided with opposed sidewall panels which contain cutouts so that the wheel assembly protrudes beyond the carton sides enabling a purchaser to view the wheel tire prior to selecting the wheel assembly for purchase. Each sidewall panel has a tuck end panel inserted into the carton and secured in place by a tuck lock flap pivotably connected to the rear wall panel of the carton. The tuck lock flap includes a plurality of creases intermediate its edges so that it can be folded and positioned between the wheel assembly and a tuck end panel within the carton adjacent to the rear wall panel of the carton, between the rear wall panel and the wheel assembly, to preclude opening of the carton and removal of the wheel assembly on display.
