Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE FRANK M. THOMSON, OF JERSEY CITY, NEW JERSEY, ASSIGNOR TO FRANK M. THOMSON AND EDWARD HASLEHURST, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVEMENT IN EGG-ARRIERS'.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. l l-6,960, dated January 27, 1874; application filed November 10,1873.
i is a Vertical section of the same with the cover on the box in the line w x.
The nature of my inven t-ion consists in strips of corrugated material bent into circular form, in conbination with vertical plain-faced strips, also bent into circular form, for the purpose of forming au egg-carrier.
By this costruction a greater number of eggs can be safely packed ina given area than is possible in a carrier whose cells are formed wholly by corrugated strips, the combined corrugated and plain strips permitting at least five eggs to be packed in a space which only will permit three when eorrugated strips alone are used.
To enable others skilled in the art to nake and use my invention, I will proceed to describe the same with reference to the drawings.
A is the cylindrical body of the egg-carrier case. It is made of stitf brown paper, known as pasteboard, the board being bent into circular form and the ends lapped and riVct-ed together. In the botton of this cylinder a stout circular bottom, B, of wood, is inserted, and the lower edge of the paper cylinder riveted to it, as shown. G is the rim of the top of the case. It is made of the same material and in the same manner as the body A, and in its upper end a circular top, D, of stout wood, is inserted, and the rim riveted to it, as shown. E are the corrugated and F the plain partitions, made of lighter paper than the body, and placed within the case in the following order: First, a corrugated cylinder is placed within the case against the inner circumference thereof; next, a plain cylinder is placed against the inner surface of the corru- 'gated cylinder, and then a corrugated cylinder against the inner surface of the plain oylinder; and, next, a plain cylinder against the inner surface of the corrugated cylinder; and, finally, a corrugated central cylinder. The number may be Varied according to the size of the case, but the order of arrangen'ent ought to be preserved.
The case is generally made of a depth to contain several tiers of cells, and between each pair of tiers and over the top one a horizontal paper partition, Gr, is placed, and in the center of each of these partitions a hole for the finger is made in order to facilitate lifting these partitions out of place.
I do not claim the use of paper as a matcrial for egg-carriers, nor do I claim paper and wood combined; neither do I claim the bend- 'ing of pieces of paper into a circular form, so
