SHIPPING CASE. APPLICATION FILED APR- 8.4921.
Patented Oct. 17, 1922.
HERMAN ROSENTHAL, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
SHIPPHVG CASE.
Application filed April 8,
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HERMAN ROSENTHAL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of New York, in the county and State .of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Shipping Case, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
Among the principal objects which the present invention has in view are: to prevent predatory rifling of shipping cases; to strengthen shipping cases; to prevent the same from accidentally opening in transit; to provide a reinforcing binding which it is necessary to destroy to gain access to the case; and to provide a case which may be quickly and easily constructed.
Drawings.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a shipping case constructed and arranged in ac cordance with the present invention, a part of the case being cut away to show the interior construction.
Figure 2 is a detail View on enlarged scale in section showing fragments of the end portions of a case constructed in accordance with the present invention.
Figure 3 is a cross section on reduced scale of the case.
Figure 4 is a detail view showing a fragment of the preferred form of the binding strap used for reinforcing and binding the case.
Figure 5 is a detail view in perspective showing a fragment of the binding strap, constructed and arranged in accordance with the modified form'of the invention.
Figure 6 is a perspective view showing fragments of a further modified form of the invention.
Description.
As seen in the drawings a shipping case constructed in accordance with the present invention has ends constructed from the boards 11 which are securely and independently fastened to edge cleats 12, the said cleats being arranged to form an annular rabbet into which the ends of the side boards 13 fit. The side boards 13 are preferably shaped so that the ends thereof do not butt tightly against the cleats 12. Usually a spacing strip or member is introduced between the cleats 12 and the boards 13 to form a narrow recess into which the doubled fin 1921. Serial No. 459,599.
14 of the binding straps 15 may be introduced.
In the preferred form, the binding straps 15 have the fin 14 referred to, from one edge whereof extends inwardly a flange 16 to overlap the butted ends of the side boards 13. The body of the bands 15, extends over the outer edges of the cleats 12, while the overturned flange 17 of the strap extends over the sides of the said cleats.
The straps are preferably produced in short lengths and are placed on the case as shown in F ig. 1 of the drawings,-where a series of fastening members 18 are driven through the flange 16. Before laying the body 15 of the strap into position, the nails 19 are driven through the cleats 12, the fins 14, and the side boards 13, as shown best in Fig. 2 of the drawings.
When the nails 19 have been driven the body 15 is turned down on the cleats l2 and the flange 17 is overturned to cover the sides of the cleats 12. A second series of nails 20 is then driven through the body 15 into the said cleats 12 which holds the body 15 firmly in position. When this has been accomplished, a fourth series of nails 21 are driven into the cleats 12 through the straps 17. It will be seen from this that when in position it becomes impossible to remove the cleats 12 when lifting both the flange 17 and the body 15 of the strap, and that while the fin 14 is in position, no prying instrument can be introduced between the cleats 12 and the ends of the side boards 13, or between the side boards 12 and the head boards 11. v
The fin 14 performs an added service by strengthening the corners and edges of the packing cases. The resistance of the fin 14 to any bending strain or shock is greater than that of the surrounding wood structure and therefore materially increases the resistance power of the case when installed in position. It will also be seen that by driving the fastening members 19 in concealed position beneath the flange 17, any person endeavoring to rifle the case would be misled thereby, while the nails 19 passing through the fin 14 would prevent the lifting of the same from its service position.
In Fig. 5 of the drawings a modified form of the invention is shown, the modification consisting in omitting the flange 17 and in clipping the fin 14 so as to permit the flange 16 and body 15 to bend to perpendicular preferred form of the invention.
relation, thereby forming a solid continuous corner for the shipping case.
In Figs. 6 of the drawings a further modified form of the invention is shown, the modification consisting in providing straps each having a single thickness fin flange 22. These flanges 22 are placed between the ends of the side boards 18 and the cleats 12 in much the same service relation as shown in the fin 14. One of the said positions has the flange 16, while the other has the flange 17 and the body 15 of the When using the modified form 01" the invention, the nails or fastening members 19 are driven through the doubled flanges 22 as the same are disposed in service, and before the body 15 and flange 17 of the outer section of the strap is bent or disposed in service.
The advantage obtained by using the modified. form is to be found in the cheapness of the construction of the strap and in the ability to store the same Within reduced space.
Claims.
ment upon said head boards with the ends 01' said side boards in said rabbet and the outer exposed surface of said side boards being flush with the outer edge of said cleats; and reinforcing straps for said cases, said straps covering the sides of said side boards and having a fin disposed between the ends of said side boards and said cleats.
2A shipping case comprising a plurality of head boards and framing cleats therefor, said cleats being mounted on said boards to form a continuous annular rabbet thereabout for receivin the side boards of a crate; a plurality of side boards adapted for adjustment upon said head boards, the exposed surface of said side boards being flush with the outer edge of said cleats; and reinforcing straps for said cases, said straps having a central fin adapted to be forced between the ends of said side boards and said cleats, said fins embodying a double thickness .of said strap disposed is perpendicular relation to the adjacent portions of said strap.
3. A shipping case comprising a plurality of head boards andframing cleats therefor, said cleats being mounted on said boards to form a continuous annular rabbet thereabout for receiving the side boards of a crate; a plurality of side boards adapted. for adjustment upon said head boards, the exposed surface of said side boards being flush with the outer edge of said cleats; and reinforcing straps for said case, said straps having a central fin adapted to be forced between the ends of said side boards and said cleats, said fins embodying a double thickness of said strap disposed in perpendicu lar relation to the adjacent portions of said strap, one of said portions having an outer flange disposed in perpendicular relation to said fin for covering the outer exposed sides of said cleats.
