Description

O. L. BARTLETT.
HAMPER.
APPLICAUON FILED MAR.29| I915.
Patented July 11, 1916.
OSCAR L. BARTLETT, 0F MOUND CITY, ILLINOIS.
HAIVIPEB.
Application filed March 29, 1915.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, OSCAR L. BARTLETT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Mound City, in the county of Pulaski and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Hampers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention may be termed a trunk or lidless hamper, consisting of two separate hampers without the usual cover, the
tops of the hampers interlocking for carriage purposes, both hampers being filled through the bottom of the upper one, and sealed by replacing the bottom, the bottoms of the two hampers when joined for shipment practically forming end members.
In manufacturing hampers of the usual type the wooden lid for the larger end usually makes up one fourth of the total cost of the hamper, and with my device this cost is entirely avoided, and I also save in handling and packing as two hampers are filled and handled at the same time.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 is a side elevation of the two hampers united. Fig. 2 is a detail vertical section, showing the manner in which the hampers interlock. Fig. 3 is an end View.
In these drawings I have shown the two hampers constructed of the usual staves 1 and hoops 2, the hampers having a greater diameter at one end than at the other. One of these hampers has adjacent its larger end a hoop 3 the staves projecting beyond the hoop, the outer faces of the projecting portions of the staves being beveled. The other cooperating hamper has a hoop 4 which projects beyond the ends of the staves, the inner face of the projecting portion of the said hoop being beveled, so that when the larger ends of the hampers are brought together, the ends of the staves Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July TLTHHW.
Serial No. 17,761.
of one hamper engage those of the other, the beveled staves of one hamper engaging the beveled face of the hoop 4L, and the two hoops also engaging. Headed pins 5 are fixed in the hoops 8 and 4.- and wires 6 wrapped about said pins lock the two hampers together.
The smaller ends of the hampers are fitted with bottom or end members 7 held in place by metal strips 8 nailed to the members 7 and to the smaller hoops 2. These end members are perforated for passage of a bolt 10, the perforations 9 being in the center of the end members, and the bolt, which passes longitudinally through both hampers, is locked by a nut 11.
While both locking means are provided the bolt is required only with heavy articles such as potatoes and onions. When the bolt is employed the wire 6 may be used or omitted as desired. With light articles{ such are lettuce the bolt may be omitted and the wire 6, or its equivalent, only used. It is of course understood that the upper end member 7 is secured in place after the two hampers are filled through said end.
What I claim is: A packaging devlce comprising two hampers, each hamper having staves and exterior hoops, the staves of one hamper projecting beyond the hoop and having the outer faces of their projecting portions beveled, the hoop of the cooperating hamper projecting beyond the staves and having its inner projecting face beveled to engage the beveled portions of the staves of the other hamper.
