Description
., -. :, PYRAMID SHAPED FOLDING BOX
This invention relates to collapsible pyramid structures and blanks from which the same can be made, and more particularly, to such structures that can be printed, artistically decorated or otherwise embellished.
The principal object of this invention is to provide collapsible structures of pyramid configuration that can be readily caused to assume their intended solid geometric appearance and which can, with equal facility be collapsed to a flat form.
A more specific object is to provide a collapsible pyramid structure with three sides and a base which can be adapted and readily converted from a flat one dimensional condition to one simulating a geometric solid three dimensional structure and which can be collapsed whenever desired.
Another object is to provide a collapsible pyramid structure that can be made from a suitably cut blank of material such as paper or cardboard and printed or decorated in any manor to serve a desired decorative purpose.
Another object is to provide a collapsible pyramid structure which can be mailed or shipped in a collapsed or flat condition and easily converted into a self sustaining solid appearing geometric structure.

Other objects and features of this invention will be apparent from the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
In order to provide secure support to enable the pyramid to stand erect, 3 (three) panels B, C
and D are folded along fold lines X, Y and Z, and with the aforementioned tongues penetrating the tab recepticals, are locked into firm place.
FIGURE I is a view of a stamped blank or a cutout that can be folded to form a collapsible and expandable three sided pyramid structure.

Referring now to the embodiment in fig. 1-4 in the drawings, fig. I illustrates a cut or stamped blank that is adapted to be folded to form a pyramid. The blank may be made of a lightweight : - I
cardboard or other sheet material and comprises a :--triangu1ar base (A) and three triangular side panels, B,C and D, all of which are the same size `~ -and joined along fold lines X,Y and Z. - -,, ,-, ,: ,-: -::

2003~03 Panel B carries two (2) flapst 12 (tongue) and 13 (tab-receptacle) and join to panel B alon8 fold lines 20 and 21. Panel D carries a flap 14 (tab-receptacle) and is joined to panel D along fold line 22.
Panel C carries flap 15 (tongue) and is joined to panel C along fold line 23.
Flaps 13 and 14 have receptacals located along fold lines 21 and 22 respectively. These receptacals enable flap ( tongue) 12 to penetrate the receptacle along fold line 22 and permits flap (tongue)15 to penetrate the receptacle along fold lîne 21.
In order to convert the pyranid from its erect and expanded condition to a collapsed condition it is only ~necessary to exert modest force on the side panels and tabs. The panels become dislocated and assume a natural co11apsed condition.
