BERRY-BOX.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 20, 1915.
Application nled July 22, 1814. Serial No. 852,469.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, JOHN W. Rosa, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dodge City, in the county of Ford and State of Kansas, have invented new and useful Improvements in Berry-Boxes, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to boxes and more particularly to berry boxes.
The object of the invention is to improve upon the type of structure illustrated in my co-pending application, Serial No. 783,810, filed August 8, 1913, wherein the bottom had no direct connection with the walls of the box and only served as a sup ort for the berries and to prevent the wal s from collapsing. It has been found in ractice that these walls do not have a ten ency to collapse but have a tendency to expand or bulge outwardly from pressure of fruit within the box so as to present an unsightly appearance and make the box look as though it did not contain its requisite quantity.
The present type of box is designed particularly to obviate this diiliculty, and broadly speaking, it consists in forming an interlocking connection between the bottom and the walls of the box whereby the spreading of said walls is prevented.
Further objects of the invention will appear as the following description is read in connection with the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this application, and in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of the box with parts broken away to show the connection of the terminal ends of the side walls. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view taken through the box. Fig. 8 is a plan view of the wall blank. Fig. 4 is a similar view of the locking and bottom blank. Fi 5 is a perspective view showing the locking and bottom blank partially folded into position.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, 1 generally indicates the wall blank which is constructed of a plurality of sections 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, the first and the latter of which are oppositely slotted, as shown at 7 and 8, so as to form an inter-locking connection. overlapping each other to form one of the side walls. The other three are formed by the sections 8, 4 and 5 by bending upon the lines 9. as will be readily understood. Extending throughout the length of the sections 3, 4 and 5 and partially across the sections 2 and 6 is a continuous flange member 10 whose terminal ends a proximately meet in the center of the side ormcd by t e sections 2 and 6. The opposite side wall 1 is provided with a locking tongue 11 struck up from the wall for a purpose to be hereinafter described.
The locking and bottom section is onerally shown at 12 and comprises a plurality of sections 13, 14, 15 and 16, the latter forming the bottom of the box and being providcd with flan cs 17, 18 and 19 adapted to inter-lock with the flange 10 instead of being sup orted directly thereon as in the former app ication. In ap lying the locking member after the wall lank has been properly folded the section 13 is placed underneath and inside of the side wall formed by the sections 2 and 6, the section 14 lying outside of said side wall, the blank being folded upon the line 19 for this purpose. The blank is then folded over the top of said side wall on the line 20 so as to carry the section 15 down inside of the said side wall to overlap the section 13. The free edge of the bottom is then forced downwardly until below.
the locking flap 4 which holds the bottom against displacement, the section 16 being folded at right angles to the section 15 on the line 21.
As shown in Fig. 2, the bottom is slightly bulged, as indicated at 22, so as to give the same a certain amount of resiliency to prevent crushing of the fruit. In this construction the bottom not only prevents collapse of the walls but the inter-locking engagement of the flanges thereon with the flange 10 on the wall blank prevents the walls from expanding.
What is claimed is A berry box formed of a blank of material bent upon itself to provide the walls of the box and having its ends interlocked to form one of the walls, the lower edges of the walls being provided with inwardly and upwardly extending flanges, a second blank engaging the outer surface of the wall formed by tho interlocked terminals of the first mentioned blank and having one of its ends extending beneath the lower edge of the wall and folded against the inner surface thereof. the opposite end of the second mentioned blank being folded over the upper edge of the wall formed by the interlocked terminals of the first mentioned blank and extending downwardly and overlying the first mentioned terminal, the said last mentioned end of the 2 uzon second mentioned blank being extended at In testunony whereof-I aifix my signature an angle and forming the bottom of the box in presence of-two witneses.
and having depending marginal flanges JOHN W. ROSE. adapted to engage over the flanges on the Witnesses; 5 lower edges of the Walls of the box, substan- C. H. DUNLAP,
tially as and for the purpose specified. T. P. RUSSELL.
