Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is a new type of container with improved design, organization and assembly features.
  • the improved container being presented is formed by two independent bodies which, once assembled, adapt to one another to jointly form a closed container which appropriately covers the products contained therein.
  • Each body is formed from respective preformed independent sheets of a stampable material, normally corrugated cardboard.
  • a large number of containers known in the market are built from corrugated cardboard, fitted with closure lids and arranged in a manner that, upon lifting the lid from the container body, the contents of the box become exposed.
  • the Spanish utility model No. 9901154 specially designed to contain certain perishable goods which must be packed in an upright position in order to prevent their spoiling.
  • the present invention intends to remove these inconveniences.
  • One object of the invention consists in providing a container of the above type which however uses less amount of cardboard and thus achieves an important cost reduction. This economy factor is very important, and in fact any other saving introduced, no matter how small, acquires great proportions when considered in terms of large scale production.
  • a further object of the invention consists in providing an exhibitor container which, although cost effective, will maintain a good mechanical strength.
  • both the container body and the closure element are formed by respective independently preformed sheets and provided with flat surface bottoms of a substantially rectangular shape on the edges of which hinge the corresponding sides to form the container enclosure of a pyramidal body having a truncated rectangular shape, three sides of the body being cut.
  • the closing body is substantially similar, although capable of snugly fitting over the container body to close it.
  • the object of the above utility model No. 9901154 is to provide an exhibitor container of the above type fitted with its own means of assembly and disassembly through a manual process, its construction being considerably simplified and thus more economical.
  • the new proposed container presents characteristics similar to those of the previously described model, save for an important difference in that it offers mechanical mounting improvements to provide a permanently assembled container with good mechanical strength that is considerably more economic both in cardboard expenditure and labor.
  • Figure 1 shows a preformed cardboard sheet forming the container for storing products in an upright position.
  • Figure 2 is a perspective view of the exhibitor container in its assembly phase.
  • Figure 3 shows the extension of the preformed cardboard sheet for forming the body that covers and closes the enclosure for storing the products packed in an upright position.
  • Figure 4 is a partial view showing, in perspective and in its assembly phase, the body covering and closing the container element.
  • Figure 5 is a perspective view of the assembly comprising the two bodies that form the container, shown facing each other in a mutually adaptable condition.
  • number 1 identifies the preformed cardboard sheet used for fully shaping the main body or container 9, where the products to be stored and exhibited, such as asparagus, vegetables, greens and other horticultural plants are arranged in an upright position.
  • Number 2 identifies the bottom or base of said container body, the large edges of which provide a hinge to extensions 3 and 4, the first of which is the larger one and rotates upwards to form a 90° angle with the bottom 2 to form the rear side of the container body.
  • Said large rear side 3 laterally supports the packed goods, which are visible along their upper part, a free space being allowed above them for placing signs and indications generally related to the packed goods.
  • each side panel 5 hinges, along folding line 7, on a substantially rectangular lap 8 which rotates orthogonally and superposes bottom 2 to form a double reinforced wall.
  • the side panels 5 By superposing the lower sector 8 of each side panel over the bottom 2, the side panels 5 become vertically superposed to bottom 2 in a manner that, upon raising the front sector 4 of the container body 9 and positioning the laps 11 at an angle over the edges 10 of bottom 2, said laps 11 become adhesively attached to the interior planes of the side panels 5 and thus definitely form the container enclosure wherein the vegetable products are deposited and maintained in upright position and which, on opening the container, become exposed along their upper part.
  • the container body 9 thus organized can be fitted with complementary arrangements, which are not the object of any particular claim in the application of this invention, such as cutouts which form handles, crests or anchoring undercuts for coupling on top of the container body 9 the second body 34 which covers it, both forming an homogeneous assembly with a considerable mechanical strength.
  • FIG 3 shows the extension of the second body 16 which closes the box by adapting onto the container body 9, closing it and covering the goods contained therein.
  • This second body 34 is formed by a corrugated cardboard sheet 16 advantageously stamped to a shape very similar to that of the container body 33 and also having a horizontal flat sector 17 which covers the upper part of the container and on whose larger edges respectively hinge the walls 18 and 19, the first of which is larger and shaped in the form of a trapezoid.
  • this wall forms, together with the upper horizontal sheet 17, a 90° angle.
  • said laps 20 On their upper edge, said laps 20 present respective rectangular extensions 23 which rotate orthogonally and become adhered to the internal face of the upper sector 17, to jointly form a double wall.
  • Said upper sector 17 presents, on the edge opposite that of the larger side 18, a rectangular lap 19 from whose lateral edges project respective extensions 26 which are rotated 90° to a vertical position over the upper panel 17 in order to adjoin the internal plane of undercut laps 20, onto which they are attached by adhesive or some other conventional means.
