Appeal No. 2000-1313
Application No. 08/797,478
The outer front layer 12 of Intini comprises a plurality
of tab sections 32, 38 defined by die cuts 34, 40. The outer
back layer 14 has a series of removable panels 44 and tear
sections 50 adapted to act in conjunction with the tabs 32,
38. Access to capsules C within pockets 22 may be had by
grasping a tab section 32 and tearing back to remove panel 44.
As a result of the secure adhesion of the outer back layer 14
to film 20, the material forming panel 44 delaminates as
illustrated in Figure 10. Thus, a portion of the material
forming outer back layer 14 remains adhered to film 20,
thereby requiring a greater force to expel a capsule from its
pocket so as to prevent most children from accomplishing the
same (column 5, lines 35-46).
Wardwell discloses a peelable package of pharmaceutical
products such as sterile surgical dressings and surgical kits.
The package is formed by a paper substrate 12 and a plastic
cover layer 14 bonded together by a bonding system 18. The
paper substrate 12 and plastic cover layer 14 extend beyond
the seal line to form respective pull tabs 24, 26 for opening
the package. To gain access to the contents, the user pulls
on the two tabs.
