Definitions

  • the invention relates to a corrugated cardboard box particularly for hospital waste.
  • Boxes made of corrugated cardboard which are shaped like parallelepipeds and are provided with a bottom and a lid, and comprise internally a plastic bag intended to contain waste; such boxes are obtained from a single cardboard sheet and are provided with grip handles obtained monolithically from sides of the upper opening.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide a corrugated cardboard box, particularly but not exclusively adapted to contain hospital waste, provided with very strong grip handles so as to allow to lift the box when full without the risk of breakage.
  • a corrugated cardboard box characterized in that it comprises at least one grip handle provided with a slot, which is obtained monolithically from walls of the box and comprises at least two layers at least in the region that surrounds said slot, at least one layer having the corrugations of the cardboard at right angles to the upper side of the slot and at least one layer having the corrugations parallel to said side.
  • the reference numeral 1 generally designates the box shaped like a parallelepiped with a quadrangular base, with walls such as 2 in which the corrugations of the cardboard are perpendicular to the bottom and to the upper opening, as shown by the cutouts in Figure 1.
  • the box is formed by a single sheet of corrugated cardboard, which is appropriately cut and provided with folding creases.
  • Two flaps 5 and 6 protrude monolithically from the sides 3 and 4 of the upper opening at creases provided at said sides, and each flap can be folded into three portions along creases which are perpendicular to the corrugations of the cardboard; accordingly, reference numerals 5a, 5b, 5c designate the three portions of the flap 5 that are separated by the creases 5d and 5e, and reference numerals 6a, 6b, 6c designate the three portions of the flap 6 that are separated by the creases 6d and 6e.
  • the portions 5a and 5b are provided with two slots 7a and 7b, which are designed to overlap following the folding of said portions, as described hereinafter, and likewise the portions 6a and 6b are provided with two slots 8a and 8b.
  • the reference numeral 9 further designates a first lid, which is adapted to close the upper opening of the box by protruding monolithically from one wall of the box at a crease 10 provided at one side of the upper opening; said lid 9 is provided with two flaps 11 and 12, which protrude monolithically at two creases 11a and 12a and are provided with two slots 11b and 12b respectively, which are described hereinafter.
  • a second lid 13 protrudes monolithically from a wall of the box at a crease 14 and is provided with locking means such as tabs 13a and 13b, which lock it by entering slits 15a and 15b.
  • the reference numeral 16 designates a plastic bag, which is inserted in the box for containing hospital waste.
  • the flap 5 is then folded as shown in Figure 2, and therefore the flap 11 lies between the portions 5a and 5b, while the portion 5c is arranged so as to rest on the lid 9.
  • the assembly is locked, as shown in Figure 3, and it is evident that the shape of the handles has three layers; the figures illustrate in particular the fact that the handle that is visible on the right comprises the two layers 5a and 5b, in which the corrugations of the cardboard are perpendicular to the upper side of the slot, whereas they are parallel to said side of the slot 11b in the layer of flap 11 that completes the handle, thus providing a very strong handle.
  • Figures 4, 5 and 6 illustrate a box 17 according to another embodiment, which is likewise formed by a single corrugated cardboard sheet with side walls in which the corrugations are perpendicular to the bottom and to the upper opening.
  • Two flaps 20 and 21 protrude monolithically from the sides 18 and 19 of the upper opening and each one can be folded into three portions along creases that are perpendicular to the corrugations of the cardboard shown in a cutout view of the flap 20: therefore, reference numerals 20a, 20b, 20c designate the three portions of the flap 20 that are separated by creases 20d, 20e, and reference numerals 21 a, 21 b, 21c designate the three portions of the flap 21 that are separated by creases 21 d, 21e.
  • the portions 20a, 20b are provided with slots 22a and 22b, which are designed to overlap each other, and likewise the portions 21a and 21b are provided with slots 23a and 23b.
  • the reference numeral 24 designates a crease that is inclined at 45°, although a different angle might be also selected, with respect to the orientation of the corrugations of the cardboard and divides the portion 20c into a blind portion and into a portion provided with the slot 25, which is adapted to overlap the slot 22b after folding along said crease 24.
  • a similar crease 26 is provided on the flap 21, which is provided with a slot 27 which is similar to the slot 25 of the flap 20.
  • the reference numerals 28 and 29 designate a first lid and a second lid, which are entirely similar to the lids 9 and 13 of the box 1 described earlier, and finally the reference numeral 30 designates a plastic bag contained in the box.
  • a handle is formed in the manner shown in Figures 5 and 6.
  • the flap 20 is folded along the crease 24, so that the slot 25 is arranged so that it coincides with the slot 22b, and then folds are performed along the creases 20d, 20e until the final situation of Figure 6 is reached, with the result that the handle is formed by three layers, two of which, specifically the outer layers, have cardboard corrugations that are perpendicular to the upper side of the slot, while the intermediate layer has corrugations that are parallel to said side.
