' sHIrrING Box on cARToN. l
in Shipping Boxes or Cartons, of which the' following is a specification.
Mymvention relates to a contalner or carton constructed out of corrugated paper board, or material of like characteristics, and intended more particularly for the reception and protection of single bottles against shocks or rough handling, so that they may be safely shipped through the mails by parcels post, or transported by express, erin any other manner, withoutvdanger of breakage. With this end in view I have designed carton, illustrated in the vaccompanying drawings and hereinafter-described, and which constitutes an embodimentY of my resent invention in a lpreferred form, in.
l' which `bx I have attaineda -high degreeof strength, and eicient protection of an 1nclosed bottle on all sides, without wasteof stock andwith consequent-,economy ofmanu- 4 facture. l
My inventionA ofvarious features of construction in the shape, disposition and arrangement of various members onparts of the box,
the essential elements of which are more particularly pointed out in the appended claims.'
0f the drawings' Figure 1 is a perspective of the various'blanks of which the carton is composed, partly folded and showing the manner -in which they are grouped; Fig. 2 is .a horizontal se 'on 'o n the line 2-2 of Fig. 3; Fig. 3 is a central vertical section on the line 3,-3 of Fig. 2; Fig. 4 is a pers'pective of afoldedbox, with portions of some of the parts broken away, to show the is a similar horizontal section,
osition of underlying members of the box; ig. 5 is a horizontal cross section of a modified construction, the plane of the view corresponding to thatA ofFig. 3;
showing a :filler inside the buffer member arranged to receive a number of tubes, either of glass, or of othermaterial whichrequlres protection.

1, 2, 3, and 4, formed of a single rectangular blank creased transversely of its length and folded to form -a rectangular tube-the meet- 111gI endsof the blank along one edge of .the tube being suitably connected, as by a cloth hinge strip-#constitute an outer shell A,
within which are arranged "the remaining parts of the box. These inner parts coming member consists of a rectangular strip transversely folded to form an outer bottom prise two 4lining members, and an inner spacing and b ufer member. The outer lin- 465 v or end wall 5, a side flap 6, an inner side wall 7, an upper top or end wall orcover 8, and
a side flap 9.which'is complementary to the side fia-p 6 and together with it constitutes al 4sidewall opposite the vwall 7. ,The inner lining member C also consists of .a rectangular strip transversely folded, and includes s an linner bottom wall 10, a side wall 11, and an inner top or cover wall 12. The spacingl and bui'er member D, like'thosefbefore de'- scribed, is folded from a rectangularblank scored on transverse lines, and comprises,
four walls, 13, 14,15 and'16, of equal'width l 17 and 18, also 0 the same width as eachother, at the opposite end of the blank; and the` size of thewalls and the attached wings is such that the. yblank may be folded together to forni a square" tube with one of its corners or edges in a planelying the wings extending from at an angle of 45 from the vsides forming the corner, and the tube and wings 'may be arranged to snugly t within the lining members'B and C, and assembled box, as' hereinafter explained.
the shell A in the As will be readily understood from the ranged within the 4outer shell A, withr` its ap 6 andside wall shell. The'inner ranged with its bottom wall 10 1n contact the outer lining member B is arand its side wall' 11 contiguous with one' of the remaining side walls of-the vshell A; centrally ,of the cartonwith the sides l13, 14, 15 and 16 extending atan angle of inclosiug side wall members,
and with' the its 45 from the and 18 lying olgnposite the wall -11 and together constituting an inner side wall coextensive with the contiguous wall of the -shell As Y In closing the' package, assuming the top end walls to be open and the bottle to have been inserted, the end wall 12 of the' inner lining member C is first folded down, and
the outer top wall 8 of the member B is then folded down over it, the side flap 9 being tucked between-the members A and D. A -stout cord or tape may then be tied around the package to prevent disengagement of the parts, or other suitable retaining means used for the purpose. .Y
In Fig. 5 I have shown'a slightly modifled form of carton, in which an oblong buer is arranged Awithina square outer shelland lining members to receive an oval flask or bottle. The Wingsrla, and 18a of the buer member are in this case of different widths, thev exact proportions in any given case of course depending on the shape of the bottle to be accommodated.
In Fig.. 6 a filler 19 is employed to adapt the package for carrying a number of glassV tubes, or tubular bottles, or articles of similar shape, as, for instance, collapsible tubes containing any sort' of pasty material which Y it is desired to ship carefully protected.
made of such'dimensions that buifers may If desired, the `carton of course may be be inserted atv its .top and bottom. or the top and bottom wall may be provided with 'integraler attached buer elements, butin A incident to shipment by parcels post is due.
practice it is found that suiiicient protection is afforded by the construction above described. The greatest liability to vbreakage to blows of postmarlng hammers used by post oice employees, and since the package is always addressed and stamped on its side,
` the sides of the box require the greatest protection.
It is" manifest that my improved container maybe .used for the shipment of squarebottles, or rectangular bottles, as Well as "bottles having a curved perimeter but if the .bottle completely fills the bufer member to its corners, its edges will not be so well pro'- tected Eas its sides; `-My packagelis therefore .designed and particularly well'adapted zfor bottles ofsueh shape` that more or less space l willbe left at the corners of the bue'r member, inwhich casethe fullest protection will be attamed.A c
