LEE W. KENNARD, OF OMAHA, NEBRASKA.
SHIPPING-CASE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 19, 1920.
Application filed March 1, 1919. Serial No. 280,051.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LEE W. KnNNfARD, a citizen of the United States, residin at Omaha, in the county of Douglas and tate of Nebraska, have invented new and useful Improvements in Shipping-Cases, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a novel construction of shipping cases, and the pr nc1pal object of the invention is to provlde means whereby glass and other fragile materlal may be carried from place to place without being broken.
Another object of the invention is to provide means whereby the case may be used over and over again.
The invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claim.
In describing my invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure 1 is a top view of the invention; and
Fig. 2 is a cross section on line 22 of Fi 1.
In these views 1 indicates the case which consists of the side and end walls and the bottom. The bottom is provided with a lining 2 made of canvas or the like and if desired, this lining may be carried up over the interior walls of the case. 3 indicates the top of the case which is composed of two sections and each section is hinged to the end of the case by the hinges 4. The
free ends of the section meet at the center of the case. The sections have secured to their inner faces coiled springs 5 which have their free ends extending downwardly into the interior of the case when the sectionsare in closed position. Thus when the plates of glass such as shown at 6, are placed in the case and the sections closed the said plates will be held against movement by said springs. The lining will also act to protect the plates of glass against breakage. The mean for holding the two parts of the cover in closed position consist of a plurality of bolts 7 carried by the sides of the case and having their ends projecting above the top thereof and adapted to register with holes formed in the side edges of the sections. Thumb nuts 8 are adapted .to engage with said bolts to clamp the sections in closed position. It will be seen that when the thumb nuts are tightened the springs 5 will be pressed against the glass in the box and prevent movement of the same.
It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of my invention will be readily apparent.
I desire it to be understood that I may make changes in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such'chan s fall within the scope of the appended claim.
What I claim is A shipping case for plate glass including a bottom, side and end walls, a pair of cover sections hinged at their outer ends to the end walls of the casing and having their inner ends arranged in opposed relation, a lining secured to the walls of the casing, a plurality of coil springs secured to the inner sides of said cover sections and adapted to engage the plate glass within the casing to secure the same against movement, and a plurality of spacedfastening bolts extending through said bottom, side walls and cover sections for detachably locking said cover sections andfor rigidly connecting the side walls to said bottom, said fastening bolts being provided with nuts. I
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
LEE W. KENNARD.
