Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 25, 1915.
Application filed. May 21, 1914. Serial No. 839,929.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM S. PAYNE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sherlock, in the county of Thurstonand State of Washington, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shipping-Boxes, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to that class of receptacles known as shipping boxes, and its object is the provision of a box of this character which will be of light and inexpensive construction and which may be readily assembled to alford a strong and comparatively rigid structure.
With these ends in View, the invention consists in a box having an outer wall section and a collapsible inner section interfitting therewith to afford the box-lid and bottom members which overlap the walls of the outer section.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved box in assembled condition and illustrated with the lid tilted up. Fig. 2 is a similar View of the inner section shown detached. Fig. 3 is a transverse vertical section of the box. Fig. 4 is a plan view of the blank such as employed for the inner section.
' According to the present invention, a box is comprised of a shell formed of two thin sheets of wood veneering or other suitable material. One of said sheets is of an oblong form and is transversely scored to afford bends at the corner edges 5 of the end walls 6 and side walls 7, and in one of theside walls an overlapping portion 8 which is secured to the juxtaposed wall by fastenings such as staples 9. The other sheet is made from an oblong piece having a width equal to or slightly greater than the external width of the box. This sheet, as shown in Fig. 4, is scored transversely at 10, 10 and 10 to afford bends for the corner edges 11 between the supplementary end- walls 12,12 and the elements 13 and 14 which respectively serve as the lid and bottom of the box.
The Widths of the portions 12, 12 of such piece are, however, of widths'equal to or slightly less than the distance between the Walls 7 of the outer member of the shell.
The members of the box are assembled by inserting the lid 13 through the opening in the outer shell part and then pushing the end 12 of the inner part against an endwall 7 of the outer part. The end portion 12 is then shoved into the opening of the outer box-part and against the other endwall 7 By thus having the portions 12 and 12 juxtaposed with the end-walls 7 of the outer box-part, the bottom 14: is brought against-and underlying the lower edges of the side-walls 6, while the lid 13 is hingedly connected at 10 to the portion 12 and is adapted to be closed down upon and overlie the upper edges of the sidewalls 6, the portion 12 and the end-wall 7 adjacent to the latter.
From the foregoing, it will be understood that the outer wall-part of the box be interposed between the lid and bottom elements, and which, acting in cooperation with the portions 12 and 12 of the inner box-part, prevent the box from collapsing or being distorted when in assembled condition.
Having described my invention, What I claim, is
A two-part box, one of said parts forming the side and outer end walls, and the other part being formed With recessed portions folded and positioned against the inner faces of the outer end walls and also formed with relatively wider portions which serve as the top and bottom Walls of the box, said wider portions being adapted to bear against the upper and lower edges of the firstnamed part.
Signed at Seattle, Wash., this 12th day of May, 1914. I
WILLIAM S. PAYNE.
