Definitions
- the present invention relates to plastic carrying and stacking cases, also known as tote boxes, which serve for the storage, transport, and distribution of packaged or bottled goods, such as in the form of glass bottles, cartons and the like containers commonly used for the storage of milk, beer, fruit juices, and the like liquid and other food stuffs, or substances.
- a cover is often required to close the tops of the cases in an effort to shade and protect the liquids or other contents of the like containers from incident light, in particular in the case of beer or the like liquids stored in the light-pervious bottles or containers.
- the closing of the tops of the cases may be desirable or necessary for various other reasons, or in compliance with special existing conditions and requirements in the use, storage or transport of the liquid foodstuffs and the like substances stored.
- an important object of the present invention is the provision of a unitary molded carrying case of the referred to type being fitted vsu'th a hinged cover, preferably forming an integral part of the case, said cover being designed for ready and easy closing and opening, substantially without the requirement of special locking means or closure devices, as well as operations during use.
- Another object of the invention is the provision of a plastic carrying case of the type referred to being fitted with an integrally hinged cover which, while allowing of an easy and ready opening and closing of the case, is designed to act as a means to provide an adequate support or base for the nesting therein of another case placed upon the first case, to enable the stacking of a multiplicity of cases, as required during storing and shipping of the cases or containers stored therein.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a plastic carrying case fitted with an integrally molded hinged cover constructed in accordance with the principles of the invention
- FIG. 2 is a parital view of FIG. 3, showing the cover in the position immediately prior to the reaching of the fully closed position of the case;
- FIG. 3 is a sectional view, taken on line 3-3 of FIG. 1, showing the case in the fully closed position.
- the invention involves generally the provision of a plastic carrying case in the form of a unitary molded structure of high-impact yet sufficiently flexible synthetic plastic, such as a known thermoplastic resin (polyethylene, polypropylene, etc.), said case comprising a pair of side walls, a pair of end walls, and a bottom wall, to a form rectangular structure, and a cover therefor being constituted essentially by a pair of preferably integrally molded hinged cover plates or panels pivoted about the outer top edges of two opposed walls of the case, in such a manner as to enable the panels to be swung inwardly towards one another, to close the top of the case upon engagement of the free inner edges of the panels meeting substantially in the center of the case.
- a plastic carrying case in the form of a unitary molded structure of high-impact yet sufficiently flexible synthetic plastic, such as a known thermoplastic resin (polyethylene, polypropylene, etc.), said case comprising a pair of side walls, a pair of end walls, and a bottom wall, to a form
- the inner or free meeting edges of the panels are fitted with right angular flanges and the outer ends of the panels adjacent to the hinges are provided with right angular shoulder or offsets, in such a manner as to cause the panels, in the closed position, to abut against one another through said flanges, on the one hand, and to cause the respective shoulders to abut against the inside Walls of the case, on the other hand.
- an integrally molded carrying case comprising a pair of side walls 10, a pair of end walls 11, and a bottom wall 12, said walls being constructed with a minimum thickness compatible with the requirements of mechanical strength and stability, to result in a reduced weight and cost of the cases.
- the side and end walls have their upper edges provided with a pair of outwardly projecting flanges 10a, 10b and 11a, 11b, respectively, to form an upper rein-forcing rim portion of U-shaped cross-section, and said side and end walls have their lower edges provided with at least one outwardly projecting flange lilc, 11c, respectively, whereby to enable the positioning or stacking of a multiplicity of cases with the lower flange o f one case resting upon the rim of the case below in the stack, as indicated in dot-dash lines in FIG. 3.
- intermediate flanges or stiffening ribs 10d, 11d and reinforcing webs 10c, 112 interconnecting the flanges 10a, 10b and 11a, 11b may be provided to further improve the mechanical stability of the cases and resistance to withstand static and other forces or loads.
- the special cushioned bottom construction of the case comprises essentially the provision of two sets of spaced parallel and outward-1y facing reinforcing channels being parallel to the side and end walls 10, 11, respectively, of the case with the channels of one set intersecting the channels of the other set (only the channels 13 of one set being visible in FIG. 3).
- the channels 13 have side and bottom portions with the latter forming the supporting surface of the case and with the side portions of the channels terminating in a multiplicity of raised or elevated and apertured platforms 14 equal in number to the number of containers or bottles to be stored in the case.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 there are shown in the drawings a pair of hinged cover plates or panels and 21 being integral with the remaining structure and extending laterally from two opposed upper edges of the case, that is, from the edges of the flanges 10a in the example shown by the drawings.
- the panels 20, 21 upon being rotated or swung inwardly, as indicated by the arrows in the drawing, towards the open top of the case about their hinges 22, consisting advantageously of integrally molded sections of weakened thickness of the material, will result in the closing of the top of the case upon meeting and frictionally locking of the free inner ends or edges of the panels, FIGS. 2 and 3.
- the panels are provided with flanges or projections 20a, 21a extending at right angles from the free inner ends thereof in a direction towards the case, on the one hand, and with right angular shoulders or ollsets 20b, 21b adjoining the inner ends of the panels adjacent to the hinge 22 and extending in direction away from the case, on the other hand.
- the flanges 20a and 21a consist of first right angular portions adjoining the edges of the panels 20 and 21 and being followed by second arc-shaped portions 20c and 210, respectively, with the hinges 22 preferably forming the centers of the arcs.
- the meeting surfaces of said flanges may be fluted or otherwise roughened, to increase friction and to ensure a firm closing or locking of the panels in the closed position, FIG. 3.
- the snap action in looking the panels 20 and 21 is predicated mainly on the flexibility imparted thereto by the shoulders 20b and 21b enabling a slight flexing and subsequent relaxation of the panels in moving from the position, FIG. 2, to the final position, FIG. 3, substantially without affecting or distorting the case.
- the thickness of the cover sections or panels 29, 21 may be the same as that of the walls 10 and 11, but is preferably less, as shown in the drawing, in the interest of providing an adequate flexibility of the hinges or sections 22, and since the cover is not required to carry or withstand any substantial loads during use. If desirable, the sections overlying the flanges 100 may be further reduced in thickness, to improve the flexibility of the hinges.
- hinges 22 have been shown in the drawing in the form of integral sections of the case structure connecting the walls or flanges 10a with the panels 20, 21 and being produced by the unitary molding operation of the case, it is understood that the panels 20, 21 may be hinged to the case structure in any other suitable manner, without foregoing the advantages of and novel effects obtained by the invention.
- the panels are advantageously provided with a series of spaced depressions or slots 24 aligned in the direction of the hinge or pivot line of the panels.
- the shoulders or offsets 20b and 21b have the further advantage and purpose of providing narrow upper edges or rims of the case in the closed position, FIG. 3, whereby to in turn enable the stacking of two or more cases one upon the other with the outermost channels or ridges 13 of the bottom wall of one case nesting with the rim of the case below in the stack, in substantially the same manner as with cases having an open top, as shown in the present application.
- a unitary molded plastic case for the storing of bottles and the like comprising in combination:
- each of said side and end Walls have first outwardly extending flanges and (2) a cover therefor consisting of (a) a pair of panels hingedly connected to the outer edges of said first outwardly extending flanges, to enable said panels to be swung inwardly toward the center of the case for the closing of the case upon the inner edges of said panels engaging one another,
