Abstract

A presentation box for presenting a transaction card may include a hinged lid connected to a hinge edge of the presentation box, the hinged lid to pivot about the hinge edge of the presentation box when moved between a closed position and an open position; and a presentation apparatus that may include a tether that may be attached to the hinged lid, and a sleeve to receive the transaction card, where the presentation apparatus is to move the transaction card between a first position when the hinged lid is in the closed position and a second position when the hinged lid is in the open position, where the first position is different from the second position.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A presentation box, the presentation box comprising:
a hinged lid connected to a hinge edge of the presentation box,
the hinged lid to pivot about the hinge edge of the presentation box when moved between a closed position and an open position; and

a presentation apparatus comprising:
a sleeve, and
a tether that is attached to a bottom layer of the hinged lid and the sleeve,
where the presentation apparatus is to move the sleeve between a first position when the hinged lid is in the closed position and a second position when the hinged lid is in the open position,
where the first position is different from the second position, and
where a presentation angle formed by a longitudinal plane of the sleeve and an under surface of the tether, which faces a base of the presentation box, increases as the hinged lid moves from the closed position to the open position,
the under surface of the tether, that is attached to the bottom layer of the hinged lid, extending in a first direction that is parallel to the hinge edge in the open position of the hinged lid, and
the under surface of the tether, that is attached to the bottom layer of the hinged lid, extending in a second direction that intersects the longitudinal plane of the sleeve and the bottom layer of the hinged lid in the open position of the hinged lid,
the second direction being non-parallel with the bottom layer of the hinged lid.

2. The presentation box of claim 1 , where an opening of the sleeve faces away from the hinge edge of the presentation box in the first position when the hinged lid is in the closed position.

3. The presentation box of claim 1 , where the presentation angle is less than twenty degrees when the hinged lid is in the closed position.

4. The presentation box of claim 1 , where the presentation angle is greater than sixty degrees when the hinged lid is in the open position.

5. The presentation box of claim 1 , where a bottom of the sleeve is attached to a support of the presentation box,
the support comprising a structure that extends from the base of the presentation box toward the hinge edge of the presentation box.

6. The presentation box of claim 1 , where the presentation box includes a compartment, the compartment to include a volume of the presentation box that is below a base of the sleeve.

7. The presentation box of claim 1 , where the presentation apparatus is comprised of a plastic material.

8. The presentation box of claim 1 , where the presentation box is comprised of a different material than the presentation apparatus.

9. The presentation box of claim 1 , where the hinged lid encloses the presentation apparatus when the hinged lid is in the closed position.

10. The presentation box of claim 1 , where the sleeve is configured to move based on the hinged lid opening or closing.

11. A presentation apparatus, the presentation apparatus comprising:
a sleeve, and
a tether that attaches to a bottom layer of a hinged lid of a presentation box and the sleeve,
where the presentation apparatus is to move the sleeve between a first position when the hinged lid is in a closed position and a second position when the hinged lid is in an open position,
where the first position is different from the second position, and
where a presentation angle formed by a longitudinal plane of the sleeve and an under surface of the tether, which faces a base of the presentation box, increases as the hinged lid moves from the closed position to the open position,
the under surface of the tether, that is attached to the bottom layer of the hinged lid, extending in a first direction that is parallel to a hinge edge of the presentation box in the open position of the hinged lid, and
the under surface of the tether, that is attached to the bottom layer of the hinged lid, extending in a second direction that intersects the longitudinal plane of the sleeve and the bottom layer of the hinged lid in the open position of the hinged lid,
the second direction being non-parallel with the bottom layer of the hinged lid.

12. The presentation apparatus of claim 11 , where an opening of the sleeve faces away from the hinge edge of the presentation box in the first position when the hinged lid is in the closed position.

13. The presentation apparatus of claim 11 , where the presentation angle is less than twenty degrees when the hinged lid is in the closed position.

14. The presentation apparatus of claim 11 , where the presentation angle is greater than sixty degrees when the hinged lid is in the open position.

15. The presentation apparatus of claim 11 , where a bottom of the sleeve attaches to a support of the presentation box,
the support comprising a structure that extends from the base of the presentation box toward the hinge edge of the presentation box.

16. The presentation apparatus of claim 11 , where the presentation box includes a compartment, the compartment to include a volume of the presentation box that is below a base of the sleeve.

17. The presentation apparatus of claim 11 , where the presentation apparatus is comprised of a plastic material.

18. The presentation apparatus of claim 11 , where the presentation box is comprised of a different material than the presentation apparatus.

19. The presentation apparatus of claim 11 , where the hinged lid encloses the presentation apparatus when the hinged lid is in the closed position.

20. The presentation apparatus of claim 11 , where the sleeve is configured to move based on the hinged lid opening or closing.
