T. M. INGLIS COLLAPSIBLE SHELF HATBOX Filed April 28, 1923 I N V EN TOR. #:04 0424 AK haz/s w r x ATTORNEY.
Patented May 27, 1924:.
Application filed April as, 1923. Serial No. 635,309.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THEODORA M. INGLis, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Denver, in the county of Denver I and State of Colorado, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Collapsible Shelf Hatboxes, of which the following is a specification.-
This invention relates to containers for hats and the like and has for its principal object, the provision of a hat container which can be used for packaging hats as at present and to which access can be hadv on a shelf or in a stack without disturbing the container or stack. 7
Another object is to provide a container of this type which is collapsible or foldable..
A further object is to provide a collapsible container of this type, which will be so re? inforced, as to increase its durability and prevent crushing.
A still further object is to provide means whereby the box can be conveniently carried. Other objects and advantages reside in the detailed construction of the invention,
which result in simplicity, economy and efficiency, and which will become more apparent from the following description.
In the following detailed description of 30 the invention reference is-had to the accompanying drawing, which form a part hereof. Like numerals refer to like parts in all views of the drawing, and throughout the description.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a plan View of the improved hat box in the collapsed position in which it is shipped.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the improved hat box with the lid removed, set
up ready to receive the hat.
Fig. 3 is a similar view of the same closed and tied and ready for carrying. V
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the inven- 46 tion in place on a shelf, showing how the hat can be reached without disturbing the box or the lid thereof. Should the shelf be high, the box could be inverted so that'the lid would swing upward.
Fig. 5, is a fragmentary horizontal section, through a corner of the box, taken on the line 5-5, Fig. 2, showing the reinforcing means. I

COLLAPSIBLE SHELF HA'I'BOX.
The box proper, comprises'a single sheet of box board blanked, as shown inFig. 1, to form a fixed end10, a hinged end 11; two fixed sides 12 and 13; and a bottom 14:, when the various folds are made as indicated by the dot dash lines in Fig. 1. I
The fixed end 1.0 is provided with wooden, reinforcing strips 15 at eachof its extremities. These strips 15 are concealed by the flaps of the sides 12 and 13 which join and fold against the end. 10, as shownin Fig. 5. Similar strips 16 are secured to the ex tremities of the sides 12 and 13, toward the hinged end 11. The strips 15 and 16 serve to prevent the box from collapsing, should weight be applied to the tops.
Hinged end 11'ifs held closed against the box by means of metal tongues 17 which engage in suitable openings in the end 11 and are bent as-shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
A handle 18 of ribbon or tape is fixed to the hinged end 11 so that it maybe readily opened, handle 18 also serves asa carrying handle when it is desired to carry the box.
A top 19 is provided for the box and is held in place by metal tongues 20 secured to the sides 12 and 13 and the end 10. Tongues 2O engage suitable openings in the-lid19. It will be noted that the edge or flange of the lid 19 isiomitted at the hinged end of the box to allow for the opening of the hinged end 11. g
A ribbon, strap or tape21 passes through suitable openings in the bottom 14 of the box and serves to tie the box in a neat and compact bundle.
' The boxes are received by the merchants in the condition shown in Fig. 1. The sides 12 and 13 are brought up and the end 10 folded in, the flaps 22 of the sides being held in place by the downward turned upper edge 23 of the end 10, as shown in Fig. 2. The end 11 is now brought up and secured in place by the tongues 1.7. The box isnow ready to receive the hat, as shown in Fig. 2.
After the hat has been placed in the box for delivery, the lid19 is 'put on and locked in place by means of the tongues 20., and the ribbon 21 tied. The box is now ready for delivery, as shown in Fig. 3;
When received by the customerthe ribbon 21 is untied, the tongues 17 straightened and the hinged end 11 opened, as indicated in Fig. 4, when the hat, shown at 24, may be removed; I
The box can now be placed upon a shelf or other; convenient place as-a permanent i can be left in place permanently, being held by the tongues The "hinge oi? "the lid 11 ma be estthe materialiofthe box itself or termed in any desired manner.
VWhen'the lid-1:9 is placed upon the box the forward edge. is slipped under the flange of the hinged-endll which pretectsthe joint bet-Ween the lid and the'boX" While a specific form of the improvement has been described and illustrated'herein, it is to be understood that the same may be varied, Within the scope of the appended claim, Without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Having :thus described :theinvention; What is claimed and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is I V A collapsible she'lf hat box, comprising, a bottom; sides hinged to and adapted to fold on said bottom when collapsed; an end hinged .to vsaid bottom and secured to an ex tension of said sides, said extensions. being hinged to and adapted to fold on Saidend when collapsed; a second end hinged to said bottom and tree from said sides; a detach-- able lid and means for securing saidlid-to said sides and one of saidends, said means In testimony whereof I aflix my signa ture.
