MICHAEL BLOCK, 015 BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR TO AMERICAN CAN COMPANY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., A CORPORATION OF NEW JERSEY.
DISPLAY-COVER FOB. PACKAGES.
Application filed March 27, 1914.
To all whom it may concern I Be it known that I, IVIICHAEL BLOCK, a citizen of the United States, residing in Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Display-Covers for Packages, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to an improvement in removable hinged, transparent, display covers for packages such as cracker boxes, and the invention consists in the novel devices and parts and combination of parts and devices hereinafter set forth and made the subject matter of the claims.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a cracker box provided with the removable, hinged, transparent cover. Fig. 2 is a vertical section of such a box, upon a somewhat larger scale taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. l, but showing the hinged cover raised. Fig. 3 is a similar section of the cover shown removed from the cracker box. Fig. 4 i a fragmentary cross section taken on the line 4- iand Fig. 5 is a rear elevation of the cover shown removed.
The cracker boxes upon which this improved cover is designed to be used are adapted to receive an ordinary slip cover (not shown in the drawing) made of sheet metal and used with the cracker box during shipment. When the cracker box is to be used to display its contents this slip cover is to be removed by the grocer and the hinged cover substituted. It will be therefore seen that relatively few of the comparatively heavy and breakable hinged covers will be needed by the grocer, since it is not intended or designed to be shipped with the crackers.
In the said drawing, A is an ordinary cracker box adapted to receive the usual sheet metal slip cover, the latter not being shown.
B is the removable, hinged cover provided with the glass C.
D i a hook adapted to slip into place and frictionally fit over the edge of the can or box A. This hook D forms one of themembers of the hinge.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Au 3, 1915.
Serial No. 827,517.
E is the other member of the hinge which is united to or made one with a side I) of the cover.
F is an angle piece secured to the hook I) and serving as a stop for the hinge, to maintain the cover in an upright position when opened.
This cover and its hinge is adapted to be applied quickly and easily to the cracker box and when closed upon said box to permit the contents to be seen while at the same time the cover may be easily opened to dispense the contents.
I claim 1. A removable display cover for cracker boxes, comprising a hook adapted to grasp the edge of the box, a cover hinged to the hook, and a stop attached to the hook and extending rearward below and beyond the hinge of the cover, which stop is engaged by the bottom part of the cover when the cover is raised.
2. A removable display cover for cracker boxes, comprising a hook adapted to grasp the edge of the box, a cover hinged to the hook, and a stop in the form of an angle plate attached to the rear member of the hook and extending rearward beyond the hinge and engaged by the bottom part of the cover when the cover is raised.
3. A removable display cover for cracker boxes comprising a continuous hook adapted to grasp the rear edge of the box, a central hinge member attached to the cover, a hinge member at each side of said central hinge member said side hinge members being attached to the outer member of the hook, and a transversely extending stop attached to the outer hook member, extending past said three hinge members and adapted to be engaged by the rear lower part of the cover when the latter is in the desired open position.
Signed and dated at Boston, Massachusetts, this 18th day of March, 191st, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
MICHAEL BLOCK.
Witnesses LAWRENCE PURTELL, CI-IARLEs L. ODELL.
