Abstract

A display container comprises an outer container having end walls and side walls. A support unit is within the outer container. The support unit has a first position in which it is against one of the side or end walls and a second position in which it extends from the side or end wall inwardly into the outer container. A spring is attached to the support unit and biases the support unit into the second position. A member is within the outer container and holds the support unit in the first position. The member is removable from the outer container allowing the support unit to move to the second position.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A display container comprising: 
 an outer container having end walls and side walls,    a support unit within said outer container, said support unit having a first position against one of said side or end walls and a second position in which it extends from said side or end wall inwardly into said outer container,    a spring attached to said support unit and biasing said support unit into said second position,    a member within said outer container holding said support unit in said first position,    said member being removable from said outer container whereby said support unit will move to said second position.    
   
   
       2 . The display container of  claim 1  further comprising 
 a pair of support units, each of said support units being against an opposed pair of side or end wall, and    said member being between said support units.    
   
   
       3 . The display container of  claim 2  wherein each of said support units comprises a pair of interlocked panels rotatable toward and away each other, and 
 said spring extends from one of said panels to the other of said panels.    
   
   
       4 . The display container of  claim 3  in which said extension panel is adjacent the other of said side or end walls.  
   
   
       5 . The display container of  claim 4  in which said extension panel is adjacent the other of said side or end walls.  
   
   
       6 . The display container of  claim 3  in which said panels form an X in cross section when said support units are in said second position.  
   
   
       7 . The display container of  claim 3  in which said spring is a rubber band.  
   
   
       8 . The display container of  claim 2  in which said member comprises 
 a carrier having side walls rotatably attached to a bottom wall,    said bottom wall having a length substantially the length between the other of said side or end walls.    
   
   
       9 . The display container of  claim 8  further comprising closure panels attached to said side walls.  
   
   
       10 . The display container of  claim 8  further comprising inner containers within said carrier.  
   
   
       11 . A display container of  claim 2  in which said member comprises 
 an inner container within said outer container.    
   
   
       12 . The display container of  claim 1  wherein each of said support units comprises a pair of interlocked panels rotatable toward and away each other, and 
 said spring extends from one of said panels to the other of said panels.    
   
   
       13 . The display container of  claim 12  in which one of said panels has an extension panel attached to it.  
   
   
       14 . The display container of  claim 13  in which said extension panel is adjacent the other of said side or end walls.  
   
   
       15 . The display container of  claim 3  in which said panels form an X in cross section when said support units are in said second position.  
   
   
       16 . The display container of  claim 12  in which said spring is a rubber band.  
   
   
       17 . The display container of  claim 1  in which said member comprises 
 a carrier having side walls rotatably attached to a bottom wall,    said bottom wall having a length substantially the length between the other of said side or end walls.    
   
   
       18 . The display container of  claim 17  further comprising closure panels attached to said side walls.  
   
   
       19 . The display container of  claim 17  further comprising inner containers within said carrier.  
   
   
       20 . A display container of  claim 1  in which said member comprises
