' jewelry trade. The general object of this invention is to construct a box or cover which is durable, of low cost, which is readily susceptible to pleasing and useful variations in conformation and which is adapted easily to be covered and padded. j
Amore specific object is to produce a box structure the parts of which may be suitably covered, or padded and covered, by means of the ordinary folding machines before assemblage into the completed whole.
Another object is to produce a box or cover the finished parts of which may be easily and quickly assembled into a completed whole by unskilled labor. 7
Other objects of the invention will appear from the following specification and accompanying drawings and will be pointed out in the annexed claims.
A selected embodiment of this invention and a modification thereof, designed to carry out the objects of the invention, have been shown in the drawings, but it is to be understood that the invention is not to be confined to the exact features disclosed as "arious changes may be made within its reasonable scope. It will be readily seen and understood that the article as shown may be either a box-cover or the box itself. And, solely in the interest of clarity, such article is designated in the specification and claims as the box portion. This invention comprehends the production of a box and its cover while, obviously, either one may be employed with a differently formed complement.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the improved structure;
Fig. 2 is a sectional view on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a modification of the structure;
to form the sides of the article.
Fig. 4 is a sectional view on the line 4=-4 of Fig. 3; and
Fig. 5 is an elevation of the fastener shown in Figs. 3 and 4.
In the selected embodiment shown in Fig. 1, a base 1, which is preferably formed of a plate or piece of sheet metal, is provided. This plate which is here shown as a plane surface of generally rectangular shape may be flat, convex, concave or of irregular shape while its periphery may be waved or other- Wise fancifully formed. Thesides of the article are preferably constructed, as here shown, of a single strip 2' of material, although obviously, a plurality of strip members may be employed. The ends of the strip 2 are joined together in the manner usual in this art. The strip material here shown is steel and an integral flange 3 is provided upon the metallic strip. This flanged strip is thus substantially L-shaped with its short leg positioned upon the box base while the long leg upwardly projects Although steel is preferably used, due to its durability and ease of manipulation to form the completed side strip, it is obvious that the strip may be fabricated of paper pulp suitably formed, or of fiber-board or similar materials in which the requisite qualities inhere. A simple means'of fastening the strip to the base is provided by punching, stamping, cutting or otherwise forming suitable projecting tabs on the base to extend from the base around the edge and down upon the upper surface of the strip flange whereby the strip is clamped to the base. In the selected embodiment shown in Fig. 1, the tabs 4 arepartially cut from the metallic base. \Vhile several of these tabs are shown it is obvious that the desired function may be achieved by the employment of a greater or less number. When the base is in this state of completion, it may advantageously be covered. In the embodiment of Fig. 1, a piece of relatively soft sheet material, such as card-board 5 or other padding is suitably secured to the bottom or outside of the base. A decorative covering 6 of cloth, paper, leather or similar material, isthen secured to the base, being usually glued or pasted. thereto by means.of'the folding machines well known in this art. The peripheral end portions of the covering. are turned over the ends of the base and backwardly turned upon the upper face of the base so that the covering extends under the flange 3 of the positioned side strip. The strip being emplaced, the tabs are tu-rned around the edge and down upon the upper surface of the flange and function securely to engage clamp and retain the box sides.
The strip is also covered in a somewhat similar manner although the covering material 6 embraces both sides of the strip, and
the padding or card-board 5 is secured between the inside face of the upwardly projecting strip and the inside portion of the material 6. The covering material is preferably not secured to the major portions of the padding so that a pufled or padded feeli-ng is imparted to the bottom and inside of j the completed box or cover.
' be of a suitably durable fiber-board or other material. A similarly flanged side strip 8 is employed. This strip may be of wood or fiber-board and may be likewise formed in several pieces, suitably joined. Herein,
the flange 9 integral with the strip, is clamped by means of suitable flat metallic fasteners such as the ordinary glaziers tack 10. Each tack is driven through the base before the similar padding 11 and the covering 12 are afiixed. The apex of one angle of the tack, projecting upwardly through the base, thusalso extends from the base and is bent around the edge and down upon the upper surface of thestrip flange and" thus retentively engages and clamps the strip flange to the base and holds the side forming strip inposition. In Fig. 4, the strip is shown as unpadded while as in the metallic structure the respective longitudinal ends of the strip covering are respectively flush with the covering Ben the projecting inner face of the base and with the upper face of the flange 9.
There is thus provided a box of simple construction especially adapted for use in the jewelry trade. This construction is such that the component parts may readilybe padded, if desirable, and covered with cloth, paper, leather, or other media, by means of the ordinary folding machines, the fastening media being concealed on the, outside of the article. When covered, the parts are easily clamped together by the tabs and the finished box is very pleasing to the sight and the touch. The construction is durable, relatively inexpensive, of few parts "and may be expeditiously assembled.
It is to be understood that the construction disclosed herein is illustrative but not restrictive .and that the same may be modified within the meaning and scope of the claims which follow.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new and .desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In a box the combination of a base; a side forming strip projecting from, and presenting a flange positioned upon, said base; and -a plurality of tabs extending from the base around the edge, and down upon the uppersurface, of the flange and acting to clamp' and secure the said flange and base together. i
2. En a box the combination of a metallic base; a side forming strip projecting from, and presenting a flan' e positioned u on, said base; and a plurality of tabs partially cut from and integral with the base and extending therefrom around the, edge, and down upon the upper surface, of the flange and acting to clamp andsecure said flange and base together. I 1
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification.
