FERDINAND n. KLING, on NEW roux, N. Y.
chanson]; BOX roa' man's 'm'rs.
Application filed June 10, IP25. Serial No. 38,220.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FERDINAND R. IQLINGL a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of New York city, county of New York, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Cardboard Boxes for Mens Hats, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvement in mens hat boxes as acombination, large or wholesale mens hat box and single sized hat box.
The object of theinvention is to construct a box which may be utilized in the following manner: .At the present time in the wholesale mens hat business the shipping of hats is made by placing three mens hats in a large circular cardboard box, which is the custom of the mens hat trade. The large circular hat box, as aforesaid, containing the three mens' hats is thus received by the retailer who preserves the three hats in the said large circular box until the hats are sold. As each hat is sold by the retailer the customer requires a smallsingle sized mens hat 'box as a container, therefor and which the retailer must have on hand for such purpose. The retailer now tries to discourage the giving of a hat box due to the factthat it will cost him (the retailer) about twenty cents extra to deliver a hat in a single hat box, while with this device he can use the stock box, which he otherwise would throw away,.. as reduced to a single hat box and deliver to the customer a boxat no extra cost to him. When the third or last hat of each box'is-sold, the said large circular box at the present time becomes usea take the place inafter explained.
less, in view of its large size as aforementioned, and ordinarily is thrown away or .discarded. These large boxes actually cost the wholesaler about twenty cents each, so that if the large boxes can be utilized after the sale of the said three hats from' each box, this will economize the hat business both from the wholesaler as well as from the retailers standpoint.
The average hatter is crowded for room and at the present time the single boxes which he carries occupy much valuable space due to their bulky form. The present device eliminates at least one-third of the space now necessary for the keepin of single boxes, as the lar e hat-boxes w en reduced 0 the single boxes, as here- The present invention refers to a means whereby the box after it has served its purpose as a container for the three hats originally shipped in it, is proportionately reduced to a single sized mens hat box which result is accomplished in the manner hereinafter explained: v
The box is constructed to a height suflicient to contain the three hats as shipped by the wholesaler, as aforesaid; it consists essentially of a cardboard box, as aforesaid, having perforated incisions in the wall thereof circumferentially arranged in the large hatbox at the height of a regular single size mens hat box and having immediately over the said perforated incisions and on the outside of the cardboard box a thin wire, one end of said wire-being drawn through one of the perforated incisions and is left free and loose, so that a pulling of the said wire will sever the upper portion'of the wall 'of'the box above the perforation from the portion of the box below said perforation, thereby proportionately reducing the said large box to a single sized mens hat box, the cover' of the large box likewise fitting the box as reduced. The perforation and wire are completely covered by a thin paper secured to the outside of the box which prevents dustv penetrating to the interior of the said box. v
Figure 1 is a general perspective view of the said large box' with cover thereon, and provided with a thin sheet of paper or other suitable material, secured to the outside wall of the box above the perforation and wire.
Figure 2 is a similar view of the large box showing the perforated incisions and wire,
before applying or securing the thin paper to the outside of the box. 4
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the said Iloiox as reduced to a single sized mens hat In the drawing like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in each figure.
A represents the wall of the box, composed of A the lower portion thereof and A the upper portion of the box.
B represents the .cover of the box A which can be fitted on the large box as in Figure 1, and likewise on the box as reduced and as shown in Figure 3.
0 represents the perforations formed in thewall of the box at the height of a single sized mens hat box each perforation being E represents the thin wire applied to the f outside of the box A immediate y over the said perforations C and portions D and the end F of said wire E drawn through one of the perforations C and left free and loose in the interior of the box covered with a small label or paster, so that a pulling of the said wire E by means of holding and pulling the end F thereof will sever the upper portion A of the box A from lower portion A thereof, thereby proportionately reducing the height of the wall of the large loox A to a single sized mens hat box A This box as thus reduced to a single sized mens hat box ma then be used as such and when fitted with the original cover 13 is practically and actually a single sized mens hat box and can be delivered to the customer with the sale of the third or last hat of the box. This will be a saving of the cost of a single sizled mens hat box on each third hat to be so d,
The end F of the wire E may be provided with a knob G so that the end F of the wire E may be held firmly and the pulling may be effected with ease.
The improved boxes may be economically manufactured in that the perforation in the aemeea said perforations on the outside of the box,
and a thin sheet of paper pasted on the outside of the said box over the perforations and wire, the end of said wire drawn through one of the perforations and left free and loose in the said box and provided with a knob at the end of said wire, whereby when the knob at the end of said Wire is pulled the portion of the box abovethe perforations is severed from the portion below the same, the box reducedto a size equal to one-third the height of the large box as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof, I aihxmy signature this 8th day of June, 1925.
