UNITED STATES PArENToFFicE. 
 VEVLIIMIIR TIMITCH, OF LINCOLN, NEBRASKA. 
FRAGILE-ARTIGLE PROTECTOR. 
`Application filed September 11, 1922.V Serial No. 587,399. 
puel-:ing cells for reception in shipping con-` confectionery, against breakage during handlingand'shipping. I amraware that numerous similar protectors have been provided for this purpose, but it is the aim of niy invention to provide a construction v-fhich will be of eXtreme simplicity, yet will give better protection to the articles than devices now commonly used. 
 VViththe foregoing in View, the invention resides in the novel subject matter hereinafter described and claimedthe description being supplemented by the accompanying drawings. Y 
 Figure l is a longitudinal sectional view of abox containing a. pair of the improved protectors. f 
ofthe box removed. 
 Figure 3 is a'transverse sectional view on line of Figui. 
a portion of one of theV protectors. 
 In the manufacture of my invention, I employ two unifo in sheets of cardboard or other appropriate sheet material having-suff i'icient rigidity to prevent easy crushing. Each of these sheets is formed byl suitable dies or rollers, so that it is provided with :i plurality of relatively long and narrow flat areas l disposed in parallel relation with each other, spaced apart'equidistantly, and extending either throughout they length or width of the sheet.A Between the areas l, each sheet is bowed into channel formation as indicated at 2. The two sheets cooperate with each other in forming a protector consisting of a plurality-of spaced cylindrical cells to contain the candy o r other articles iainers to hold fragile articles, particularly- Figure 4 is a sectional. perspective view of to be protected. I/Vhile it is preferableA that the two sheets shall notbe secured to each other, in order that the channels of the one sheet mayV be filled and the other sheet then applied, it will be understood tliat'in some instances, the flat portions l might be glued or otherwise secured to each other, in which instance it would be necessary to fill .the cells from one end or the other. 
 Aiiy'desired number of theprotectors may be placed in a box or the like, such as that indicated at 3 in the drawings and each of the sheets of materia-l of which theV protectors are formed, preferably termi- Y nates in one ofthe flat portions l, whereby the endmost cells are spaced from the ends ofV the box and thus there is less danger` of crushing their contents.v 
By the simple and inexpensive construeu tion shown and described, a device is pro-V vided which will be highly advantageous to prevent the crushing of fragile confections and the like and sinceeXce'llent results may be obtained from the details disclosed, I prefer Vthat they beA followed. IIowever, 
within the scope ofthe invention asclaiined, 
minor changes mayof courseV be made,` Y 
I claim; 
 An article of Vthe class described com- Y' y prising a boit, a plurality of protectors for Figure 2 is a top plan view with the cover fragile articles Y arranged in superposed relation within the Ybox and resting directly vupon rone another, each of said protectors being composed of a pair of elongated sheets of flexible material Vand each sheet vof each pair being bowed at longitudinally. 
spaced points to provide a plurality of lon-v gitudinally spaced channel-'shaped1 portions, 
thel channel-shaped portions extending. n 
transverselyof thesheet from one longitudinal'edge to the other corresponding edge and being aligned with Vthe* correspondingly shaped portions ofthe compleineiital sheet of the pair so as to form a pluralityrof twopart open ended cells of uniform diameter from end to end, the open ends of the cells beine dis eosed, a ainst the walls of the boi: 
.C V Y to permit the latter-to serve as closures Ol the. ends of the cells.V 
-In testimony whereof I have hereunto aff Y
