WILLIAM GRANT FISKE, OF PURFLEET, ENGLAND, ASSIGNOR TO THAMES PAPER COMPANY LIMITED, OF PURFLEET, ENGLAND.
Specificationof Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 20, 1917.
Application filed August 26, 1915. Serial No. 47,409.
To all whom it may concern:
.Be it known that I, WILLIAM GRANT FrsKE, a citizen of the United States of America, and resident of Purfleet, Essex, England, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in the Manufacture of Boxes and Similar Receptacles, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to what is commonly known as a three-part box (or similar receptacle) that is a box formed of two rigid end-members, and a third member constituted by a sheet of cardboard or like material lapped about and nailed by its lateral margins to the edges of the respective endmembers.
In such boxes the efficiency of the connection between each endmember and the third member (particularly as regards resistance to pressure tending. to force the end-member outward or inward transversely of the nails, as well as resistance to bursting strains tending to "strip the third member off the end-members in the direction of the length of the nails) has usually been dependent upon the capability of those portions of the. cardboard which immediately surround thev nails to resist tearing; those portions of the cardboard which intervene between adjacent nail-holes bearing practically no share in resisting the tendency to tear. Hence, as the nails are frequently spaced. at somewhat wide intervals apart, the strength of such boxes with reference to strains of the kind just referred to does not correspond with the capability of the box to withstand other strains to which it is lial-le to be subjected.
According to the present invention the material of the third member, between adjacent nail-holes, is caused to participate to an'equal (or substantially equal) extent with the; material immediately surrounding the holes in the work of resisting tearing and other strains which tend to destroy the structure of the box by means of reinforcing material formed of pliable material (6. g. tough paper or fabric or layers of paper and fabric united by an agglutinant) applied to the lateral margins of the cardboard forming the third member of the box and caused to adhere to saidthird member by an agglutinant as to become virtually incorporated therewith.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view showing an example of a three-part box embodying the present 7 or equivalent relatively thin material 6, a
sheet 0 of cardboard or the like being lapped about the two end-members and secured by its lateral margins to the edges of the respective end-members by means of nails as indicated at d.
c, 6 (Fig. l) are two reinforcing strips, which are applied to the respective lateral margins of the third member 0 so as to be transfixed by the nails d. In the example illustrated, the reinforcing strips 6 are formed of a layer 7 of paper backed externally by a layer 9 of canvas or other suitable fabric secured to the paper layer by a suit-able agglutin ant.
In practice according to my invention the lower surface of each strip, before it is applied to the marginal edge of the third member c, is coated with an adhesive capable of causing the strip to adhere so strongly to the cardboard 0 as to become incorporated therewith. The adhesive may either be applied to the strip immediately before the latter is aflixed to the cardboard, or it may be applied beforehand (for example during the manufacture of the strips. in quantity), al owed to dry, and moistened or softened immediately before the strip is atfixed to the member 0.
Inasmuch as, in a strip formed of layers of-paper and fabric (as in Fig. 2), the paper would be less absorbent than the fabric, the under layer to which the adhesive for securing such a composite strip in position is applied should preferably be of paper.
I claim A receptacle comprising rigid end members, a cardboard member extending about the peripheries of said end members to form the body of the receptacle, reinforcing means comprising indwldual strips of paper extending continuously along the marginal edges of said member and secured thereto each of said strips of paper, and nails or the like passing through said fabric layers, paper strips and cardboard member and into said end members whereby the cardboard member and end members are secured together to form the receptacle.
WILLIAM GRANT FIS KE.
It is hereby certified that Letters Patent o. 1,216,791, granted Fehruary .20,
1917, upon the'application of- William Grant'Fiske, of Purfieet, England, for an improvement in The Manufacture oPBoxes and -sirnilarReceptaclesf were erroneously issued to Thames Paper CompanyLimited, as owner of the entire interest'in said invention, whereas said Letters Patent should have'been issued to the ineentor, said Fiske and Thames Paper Company, jointly, said company being assignee of one-half interest only, as shown by the records of assignments in this 1 office; and that the said Letters Patent should be read with this correction therein that the same may conform tofithe record of the case in the Patent Offiee.
Signed and sealed this 5th day of August, A. D., 1919.
