Construction of the article support structure 151 is substantially the same as for the first embodiment described above and shown in Figure 6. It is not therefore described in any greater detail.
- the flaps 148, 148a forming the platform structure may be secured together by glue or other suitable means known in the art to provide a double ply platform.
- the same folding procedure is carried out as that described above for the first embodiment, so that the platform structure 143 is folded into a substantially horizontal arrangement shown in Figure 6 thereby to provide a platform on which the article rests.
- the flaps 148, 148a may remain unglued and may be folded away from each other to take the respective horizontal positions.
- the central parts 146, 146a of the displaceable strips 149, 149a maybe glued together.
- the support or stabilizing panels 20, 26 and 24, 28 are folded along their common side edges with the tubular structure, such that the support panels are in a substantially parallel arrangement, so that the cushion member can be inserted into the carton, for example a rectangular carton.
- the nature of the paperboard or like material is resilient such that the stabilising panels 22/24 and 20/26 will tend to return to its original orientation with respect to the tubular structure in directions Y and Z ( Figure 7) and thus when inserting the carton will frictionally engage the inside surface of the outer carton, shown in Figures 7 and 8.
- top protecting structure 59 In those cartons with top protecting structure 59, it is constructed by folding upper panels 60 and 64 out of alignment along fold line 70 to allow the tubular structure to be formed as shown in Figure 5.
- gusset panel 68 In order to close the top protection structure 59, gusset panel 68 is folded along fold lines 70 and 72 to be placed in overlapping face contacting relationship with the upper surface of panel 60 and thereafter the glue tab 74 is secured to the upper surface of panel 60 by glue or other suitable means known in the art.
- the completed top protection structure is shown in Figure 8 and the top 106 and end flaps 102 of the outer carton C are folded over and secured in a closed form as is well known.
- the third embodiment shown in Figure 3 is formed whereby the cushion member 201 is constructed first in a similar manner to the first embodiment described above whereby first and second side wall panels 212 and 214 are placed in face contacting relationship with third and fourth side wall panels 216, 218 and the glue flaps and/or central parts of the displaceable strips 249, 249a of the support structure are glued together as described above.
- the glue flap 226 is folded along the fold line 240 and glued to the inside surface of the first side wall panel 212.
- the panels forming the outer carton are folded about the cushion member in a wraparound fashion whereby panels 290, 292 are folded about fold line 300 into face contacting relationship with side panels 216 and 218 of the cushion member and panels 286 and 288 are folded about fold line 296 to come into face contacting relationship with the opposing side wall panels 212, 214 of the cushion member and is secured together by gluing end panel 286 to support panel 220 thereby to form the carton in a flat collapsed condition.
- the end panels 286, 290 and the front and rear panels 288, 292 are separated to form a tubular structure which causes the cushion member side walls 212, 214 and 216, 218 to be separated.
- the support structure 249, 249a is automatically deployed in the manner described above so that an article A can be placed within the cushion member.
- the top protection structure 259 is formed as described above and the base and top panels of the carton can be closed as is well known in the art.
- a carton C substantially similar to that illustrated in Figure 8.
- the support structure 51; 151; 249, 249a of the invention can be automatically erected so as to act as a strut by employing configurations other than those described above, without departing from the scope of invention.
- the support structure 51 need not be centrally positioned.
- the support structure strengthens the overall carton structure and assists in maintaining a tubular structure when for example the carton is stored on a supermarket shelf.
- the platform 48, 143 provides further support for the article contained within it.
- the support structure can be adapted so that the panels will tend to crumple for example in a vertical plane in the event of excessive or sudden movement of the article within the carton for example during transit, thereby to dissipate the forces, and reduce the risk the article will be damaged.
- hinged connection should not be construed as necessarily referring to a single fold line only: indeed it is envisaged that hinged connection can be formed from one or more of one of the following, a score line, a frangible line or a fold line, without departing from the scope of invention.
- the present invention and it preferred embodiments relate to a carton and/or cushion member which is shaped to provide satisfactory rigidity to hold fragile items such as bottles securely but with a degree of flexibility.
- the shape of the blank minimises the amount of paperboard required for the carton.
- the carton can be constructed from a flat collapsed condition to a position of use by hand or automatic machinery.
- the base configured to act as a. . strut can be replaced by a strut formed from other panels of the carton and/or can include one or more struts without departing from the scope of invention.
