GEORGE S. BOWMAN, 0F LEBANON, EENNSYLVANIAi- KNOCKDOWN SHIPPING-PACKAGE.
y Specification of Letterslatent. Patented lay 27, 1913.
sppucaan mea septemberu, 1912. vserial no. 722,024..l
To all whom it may conce/mf i Be it known that LGEORGE S. BowMAn, a citizen of the United Sta-tes, and a resident of Lebanon, in the countyfof Lebanonl vand State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain neuT and useful Improvements in Knockdown Shipping-,Packages of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in knockdown shipping packages and more particularly 'to' improvement-s in knockdown shipping packages constructed of metal, and
the objects of my invention are to furnishl an efficient and inexpensive metallic shipping package which may be conveniently and quickly knockeddown and which may be as easily and quickly assembled Without My invention is illust-rated in theaccompanying drawings, forming -part of this "specification, and in which:
Figure 1, is a side elevationv of my assembled shipping package: Fig. 2, a vertical central longitu( inal section through the as sembled package: Fig. 3,:a perspective View lof the head of the package before inserting it in the body of the paeka e: Figs. 4', and 6, perspective views of di erent mea-ns for securing the head` to the body ot the pack` a e.l
gThe body 1 of my package .is constructed from apiece of sheet metal of appropriate size and thickness which may be bent toy a cylindrical form so that its ends mayoverlap sutiiciently to prevent escape of the inaterial thatthe package'is designed to carry. Near the top -Pnd bottom ofthe body l the metal of which it is constructed is groored hoops or rings of metal '3 similar to those near the top and bottom ofthe' package. To put the rings or hoops in place the sheet of metal forming the body is rolled .so as to be of less diameter than the interior diameter of the hoops when the latter may be readily slipped in place when released. The expansion of the body will cause it to bearagainst the rings the diameter of which determine the diameter ofthe package. The rings 3 being in place uponthe body' 1. they main` portion of the package is formed and itonly remains to insert land secure theI heads to have the package complete.
The heads 4 are struck up in dies so that they have substantially the forin shown in Fig. 3, that is to say they present tho form of a short cylinder' open' at one end and closed kat the other yand are, preferably, furnished at the tops with ears 4 are of the saine diameter -as the diameter of the interior ofthe body 1 and are adapted to be placed, closed end vflownward, in the ends' of the body and to be removably secured theretoby some form'of fastening which will at the saine time serre to engage theJ outer side of the rings orhoops 3 which ,are near the ends of the package to hold, in connection with the ridges- 2-already dcscribed, these rings or hoops in place.
tening for securing the heads 4 to the body 1, a split rivet 6 as shown in Fig. 4 the head of which would engage the side of the ring 3 andthe split portionof which would be bent or clenched on'the inside lof the cylin- 'dricalpart of the head, screws 7 adapted' to enter. keepers 8, Figs. 5 or 6 or any other suitable form of device -for these purposes.
may be beaded, as at 9, near its inner, or
groove formed by the beads 2 near the ends fastening for holding the heads in place. If the beaded form of Ahead be used the head would be inserted in the ends' of the body 1 before the end rings 3 areput in place.
The ends of the body 1 and the cylindrical part of the,l heads 4 are perforated for the passage ofthe screws 7 or other fastenings. IfV screws be used I prefer'that it be inconnection with' some form of keeper or nut which will serve as a reinforcement for the chimesof the package, such Yforms of reinforcement arefshown in Figs. 5 and 6.
the head be formed with the ears 5 these latter would,'after the head was -in place, be bent down over the sides of the body 1, as shown at the 'upper parts of Figs. 1 and 2, to form three thicknesses of metal at the points through which the fastenings 7 pass or to form coverings for the outer parts of the fastenings, as shown at the lower parts of these figures.
closed, end and this kbead may enter thel The heads Iprefer to use some sort of a beaded fas- The riin or cylindrical part ofthel head 4 of .the body 1 and thus form an additional IfI Having thus described my invention I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. In a knockdown shipping package, in combination, a body formed of sheet metal rolled to form a cylinder and furnished with circumferential ridges near its ends, hoops or bands surrounding said body and held in position, at one side, by said ridges, removable heads closing the ends of said body, and fastenings for securing said heads and body, said fastenings holding said ringsor hoops upon the side opposite to that held bysaid ridges.
2. In a knockdown shipping package, in combination, a body A.with overlapping sides and circumferential ridges near its ends, cylindrical shaped heads with ridges adapted to interlock with the inside grooved part of said first ridges, rings or hoops adapted to encircle said body and to be held from movement in one direction by said ridges on said body, and beaded fastenings for securing together said body and heads and for holding said rings or hoops against movement away from said ridges.
3. In a knockdown shipping package, in combination, a body with overlapping sides and circumferential ridges near its ends, cylindrical shaped heads adapted to enter the ends of said body, rings or hoops adapted to encircle said body and to be held from movement in one direction by said ridges on said body, beaded fastenings for securing together said body and heads and for holding said rings or hoops in contact with the ridges on the body, and a reinforcing keeper for the chimes of said package held in place by said beaded fastenings 4. In a shipping package, in combination, a body with overlapping sides and circumferential ridges near its ends, cylindrical shaped heads adapted to enter the ends of said body, furnished at their outer ends with ears that can be bent down along the outside of the body, rings or hoops adapted to encircle said body, means forming part of said body for preventing said rings from moving inward on the same, and beaded fastenings for securing together said body and heads and for preventing an outward movement of said vrings or hoops thereon.
