B. ETHERIDGE, OF JACKSON, MICHIGAN.-
TOBACOO BOX.
Application filed July 18, 1928. Serial No. 651,881.
To all whom it may concern:
' Be it known that I, HARRIET R. Ernnnmos, a subject of the King of Great Britain, residin at Jackson, in the county of Jackson and btate of Michigan, have invented new and useful Im rovements in :lobacco Boxes, of which the ollowing isa specification.
This invention relates to special receptacles and packages and has for its object the provision of a novel can or box for tobacco intended to be used as the original pack e in which tobacco ma be put up and so (1 the can being provid with means for hol ing a packet of cigarette papers and also plpe cleaners .and being furthermore FIOVldGd. with a discharge stplout which will acilitate pouring out of e tobacco into a. pipe or onto a cigarette paper.
An important and more specific ob'ect is the provision of a receptacle of this aracter in which the cigarette papers are carried by a slide normally contained within an en- 0 osure but automatically moved into exposed position when the spout is moved into its active position. 1
Another object is the rovision of a device of this character w ch will be very attractive in appearance, which will be highly advantageous as an advertising novelty and which will be a general improvement in the art.
With the above and other objects and ad vantages in view the invention consists in the details of construction to be hereinafter more fully described and claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which: I
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the can showing it in normal or closed position, Figure 2 is a similar view showing the spout swung into its operative position and the packet of cigarette papers exposed,
Flgure 3- is a. horizontal cross section through the box,
Figure 4 is a vertical cross section taken through the slide,
Figure 5 is a-vertical lon 'tudinal section looking toward that side 0 the can which carries the slide,
Figure 6 is a perspective view of the slide removed, and
Figure 7 is a perspective view of the spout member removed.
Fi ure 8 is a perspective view of the slide housing remove Referring more particularly to the drawings I have shown the can 10 constructed in most respects like .other cans for this purpose, that .is to say it consists of the usual can body of ordinary size. shape, material and finish and provided with the usual hinged cover 11 which permits filling with tobacco. In carrying out my invention I provide, upon one side of the box or can a guide or housing 12 formed of sheet metal and of a size slightly larger than a packet of cigarette pipers indicated at A. This guide might secured in place in various different ways, though I have shown it as provided at its corners with small tongues 13 which are passed through slots 14 in the side of the can and subsequently clinched. One edge of this guide is formed with a rolledflange 15 for the purpose of holding a i e cleaner indicated at B.
ovably mounted within the guide 12 is a slide 16 formed at both ends with retaining flanges 17 for holding the packet of cigarette papers, and the upper end is formed with a small cut out portion 18 for the insertion of a finger whereby to facilitate removal of pa r from the packet. Carried by the rear si e of this slide is a wire or other loop 19 which projects through an elongated slot 20 in the side of the can.
One edge of the can or box is provided near the hinged cover with an opening 21 within which is located a spout 22 hinged at 23 at the lower edge of the opening and having its upper edge formed with a slightly outwardl curved lip 24 which is readily engagea le by a thumb or finger nail to pull the spout into the operative position. This spout is formed of sheet metal and is U-shaped in cross section so as to have side arm portions 25 and 26 which bear against the inner faces of the sides of the can for preventing leakage of the tobacco. The arm 26 is prolonged or; formed with an extension 27 engaged within the loop 19.
In actual use, the can is filled by the packer through the open top, the cover is then closed and the revenue stamp is applied in the usual manner. It is of course understood that the pi e cleaner and cigarette papers are inserte by the manufacturer or packer before the cover is closed. The purchaser need not necessarily open the cover 11 but must tear the stamp at the When the user swings the s out into its open position, as shown in igure 2, the extension 27 ofthe arm26 operates to move the slide 16 upwardly so that the packet of" papers will be projected from and will extendbeyond the top .of the guide 12 ,in convenient position to be grasped so that one may be removed for ,the purpose of rolling a cigarette. WVhcn the spout is reclosed the extension 27 moves the slide 16 into the guide so that the papers are at all times protected against rumpling or soiling in the pocket.
From the foregoing description and a study of the drawings it will be a parent that I have thus provided a simp y constructed and consequently inexpensive tobacco can or box which is well adapted for advertising purposes and which may be used to great advantage by packers or manufacturers of tobacco, or which. ma also be constructed and used as a dispens ngdevice which may be filled from an ordinary tobacco container, there being no restriction whatever as to the mode of use.
\Vhile I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of the invention it is of course to be understood that I reserve the right to make such changes in the form, construction and arrangement of parts as will not depart from the spirit'of the inv with means for retaining vention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
I claim i 1. Ina tobacco box, a guide mounted upon one side thereof, a slide movably mounted therein and formed for holding a packet of cigarette papers, a movable discharge member, and a connection between said discharge member and said slide whereby to move the latter to expose the pa ers when the discharge member is move to operative position. s
2'. In a tobacco can, a guide mounted upon one side thereof, a slide movably mounted therein and formed to hold a packet of cigarette papers, a discharge spout pivotally mounted upon one edge of the can and normally closing an opening therein, f and an operative connection between said spout and projected position when the spout is swung into operative position.
3. In a tobacco can, an enclosin guide mounted upon one side thereof, a sli e movably mounted within the guide and provided a packet of cigarette papers, the slid e being normally contained within the guide, 'oneedge of the can being formed near its top with an opening, a discharge spout hinged. at one edge of the opening and normally closing the same, an
. arm on said spout, a loop projecting from said slide into the can, with a slot permitting and said arm passing In testimony the can being formed movement of the loop through said loop.
whereof I aflix my signature.
