Definitions
- the present invention concerns boxes, and in particular a box provided with a front opening so that it can be stacked without problems in putting in and taking out the content thereof.
- the typical example of this kind of box is that of a box provided with a front window which allows to see the content thereof, as well as with a closing lid which may be integral to the box base or separate therefrom.
- a front window which allows to see the content thereof, as well as with a closing lid which may be integral to the box base or separate therefrom.
- the presence of the window allows to find the desired garment with no need to open the boxes one after the other until the right one is found.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a stackable front-opening box which overcomes the above-mentioned drawbacks.
- the advantage of the box according to the present invention is that it allows to reach its content with no need to move the overlying boxes or to pull it out from the stack.
- a box 1 according to the present invention has a traditional substantially parallelepipedal shape, but in the front portion of the base it has a lowering obtained through a cut along an a angle of about 45°, performed orthogonally to the box longitudinal axis at a distance A from the front panel of about 8-9 cm.
- the front panel 2 is 5-6 cm lower than the other base panels.
- lid 3 includes a front portion 4 covering said lowering and hinged to the rest of lid 3 along a line 5 coinciding with the beginning of said lowering.
- lid 3 follows the profile of the side panels 6 which frontally end with a segment inclined downwards at about 45°. The difference in height between the front panel 2 and the other panels therefore substantially corresponds to the distance B between the lower edge of panel 2 and the upper edge of the lid portion 4' of the underlying box 1'.
- the side lips of lid 3 are also divided into two parts 7 and 8, the second of which moves integral to the front lip 9.
- box 1'' at the base of the stack, it is possible to lift the front lid portion 4 and to lower the front panel 2, which is hinged at the bottom and kept in the closed position by lip 9.
- the lifting of portion 4 is precisely made possible by the lowering which creates the distance B between two boxes arranged one on top of the other.
- each side panel 6 frontally ends with a tab 10 parallel to panel 2.
- the equipment of box 1 is completed by a handle 11 and a window 12 located on the front panel 2.
- the front panel in the case of very high boxes, such as those containing dresses hung like in a closet, is preferably divided into an upper portion 2' falling forward as described above and hinged to the lower portion 2''.
- the latter is preferably fixed on the side panels 6 in such a way as to allow the complete opening of the front panel 2, for example by means of press-studs 13.
- the box according to the present invention may also be advantageously manufactured as a collapsible box.
- the various members making up the base and the lid are hinged together so that the box can be flattened for transport, and they are provided with devices for their mutual restraint, such as the press-studs 13, to assemble the box for use.
- lid 3 is integral to the base, being hinged to the rear panel, but it could as well be separate and provided with a rear lip corresponding to the front lip 9.
- panel 2 could be laterally hinged to one of panels 6 instead of being hinged at its lower edge to the box bottom, and the same is true for portion 2'' in fig.2.
- the box according to the present invention is preferably made of carton or plastic material; it is thus possible to realize the hinges connecting the various members through simple folding lines of the material.
- other materials may be used, e.g. metallic, by realizing the hinges with elements more structurally complicated.
