UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
DWIGHT E. GARRETT, OF DELTA, IOWA.
xivooxnowlv RECEPTACLE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DWIGHT E. GARRETT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Delta, in the county of Keokuk and State of Iowa, have invented new and useful Improvements in Knockdown Receptacles, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to crates, boxes,' or the like and more particularly to the class of knock-down receptacles.
The primary object of the invention is the provision of a receptacle wherein the walls thereof are connected together in a novel manner so that the said receptacle can be folded into compact form, thereby enabling the convenient transfer of the same or the handling thereof when not in use.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a receptacle of this character in which poultry or articles to be shipped may be placed within the receptacle from the ends thereof, the walls being held against folding on the closing of the ends of the case, yet on swinging inwardly the said ends the receptacle can be collapsed into compact form.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a knock-down receptacle of this character which is simple in construction, strong, durable, thoroughly reliable and efficient in its purpose, and inexpensive in manufacture.
With these and other objects in view the invention consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claim hereunto appended.
In the drawings: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a receptacle constructed in accordance with the invention, the same being set up for use. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the receptacle folded. Fig. 3 is a vertical transverse sectional view of the receptacle when set up. Fig. l is a vertical longi-" tudinal sectional view of the receptacle when folded.
Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views in the drawings.
Referring to the drawings by numerals, the receptacle, which in this instance is shown in the form of a shipping crate, comprises slatted side walls 5, pairs of slatted swinging top and bottom sections 6 and 7 respectively and solid swinging end sectlons Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed February 7, 1913.
Patented Mar. 24, 1914.
Serial No. 746,883.
8, the side walls 5 being formed with L- shaped cross end cleats 9 and likewise the top and bottom sections 6 and 7 are formed with L- shaped cross end cleats 1O having ear extensions 11 which are connected to the cleats 9 by means of pivots 12, whereby the said sections 6 and 7 may swing inwardly on the folding of the crate outwardly when setting up the said crate. Con necting the cleats 10 at their inner ends are links 13 which are pivoted at ltthereto so as to form a double joint between the top and bottom sections, whereby on the inward folding or swinging of the said sections the end walls 5 will be caused to approach each other and said top and bottom sections will be brought into parallel relation to the end walls and between the same when the crate is collapsed. Connecting the end sections 8 to the cleats 9 are hinges 15 which permit the swinging of the sections inwardly on the collapsing of the crate or the swinging of the same outwardly when the crate is set up so as to prevent the folding of the top and bottom sections. It will be evident that the end sections 8 can not swing outwardly beyond the planes of the ends of the crates by reason of the formation of the cleats 10 on the top and bottom sections of the said crate.
The sides, top and bottom sections of the crate are preferably constructed of slats although if preferred the same may be made partly of wood, and partly of woven or mesh wire. Furthermore, if desired the said sections may be made solid. When the end sections 8 have been swung to closing position, it will be impossible for the top and bottom sections to fold inwardly thereby obviating the accidental collapsing of the crate when in use.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings it is thought that the construction and operation of the invention will be clearly understood and therefore a more extended explanation has been omitted.
What is claimed is:
A knock-down crate comprising side sections having L-shaped end pieces, two-part top and bottom sections each having L- shaped end pieces, extensions formed on the outer ends of the end pieces of the top and bottom sections, pivots passed through the extensions and also passed through the portions of the end pieces of the side sections parallel therewith for swingingly connecting the parts of the top and bottom sections thereto, links pivoted to the inner ends of the end pieces of the top and bottom sections to permit the folding of the parts of the top and bottom sections in parallel relation to the side sections, and end sections swingingly connected to the channeled portions 01": the end pieces of the side sections and adapted to be swung inwardly in parallel relation to the side sections on the folding Copies of this patent may be obtained for of the top and bottom sections, the said end sections being adapted to swing outwardly into the channeled portions of the end pieces on the top and bottom sections when at right angles to the side sections.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
DVIGHT E. GARRETT. it-messes NELSON REED, Jon S. UTTERBAGIL five cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents, Washington, D. 0.
