SHIPPING BOX.
Application led October 31, 1923.
This invention relates to improvements in shipping boxes and its principal object is to provide a box of the collapsible type that is formed of a single piece of material, that ii consequently is of very simplev construction,
cheap to manufacture and that can be stored or shipped,l until used or assembled, in the minimum space vand that can be instantly a;sen'ibled. The box is adapted particularly for use as a container for berries, small fruits and the like.
Tu'ith the foregoing and other objects in view the invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts to be herein-- after fully described, pointed out in the appended claim and illustrated in the accompanying drawing which forms a part of this application and in Which- Fig. 1 is a view of the blank from which the box is made. Y
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the box assembled.
Fig. 3 is a plan view of Fig. 2.
Fig. el is a plan view of a slightly modilied forni of the box.
Fig. 5 is a plan view of another slightly modified form.
Like reference characters denote corresponding parts throughout the several views.
The box is formed of a single piece of material which is cut to form the oblong strips l. 2. 3, 4 spaced apart but connected by the band 5 which band is projected beyond the strip 1 to form the extension or tongue (i. The band 5, throughout its length including the tongue portion 6. is folded along its longitudinal center line 7 and each strip is folded along a transverse line 8 located midway between the ban-d center line T and the free end of the strip, each strip-portion between the line 8 and the band 5 then forming one of the sides of the vbox and each strip- Serial No. 671,866.
portion beyond the center line 8 forming a bottom portion of the box. The ends of the band 5 may be formed with tiny perforations 9 and the extension end 6 is adapted for disposal upon the opposite end of the band and the perforated portions of the band then secured together by an ordinary metal clip 10, or said ends may be stitched or otherwise suitably secured together. VThe ends of the strips that form the bottom of the box are likewise clipped together and the box is then assembled.
In the form of box shown in Fig. 4 alternate bottom portions are formed with lips 11 and the intervening bottom portions are formed with slots 12 to receive said tongues whereby the bottom is retained in assembled position. In the form of box shown in Fig. 5 the free ends of the strips 1, 2, 3, l are rounded and secured together by a clip 10.
What is claimed is In a shipping box formed of a single piece of material, spaced strips adapted to be folded along transverse .lin-e.; so' that strip portions upon opposite sides of said line-s are disposed substantially at right angles to each other, a band connecting said strips at their extreme ends, said band extending laterally bevond said strips and being adapted to be folded longitudinally, said band having a diameter less than that of any of said strips, the spaces between said strips forniing Ventilatingl means for the box between its sides, means for securing together the ends of said strips remote from said band, and means for securing` the ends of said band together.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have. hereto aiiixed my signature.
CHARLES R. TATE.
