Description
Patented Apr. 5, 1927.
v STAT PATENT-OFFICE. f
' flnnwnv anonwnnsAonf, or MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN.
' snon-nI'sr nY'o RToNJ Application filed February i This invention relatesto display cartons and although it is; particularly directed to a display carton for shoes, it obviously could be used for otherpurposes.
very simple manipulation may be instantly changed into a toy house. 7
Further objects are to prov de a device having the characteristics enumerated above,
which may be very cheaply manufactured,
which is substantially as strong asthe ordinary shoe box' or similar carton, which is of attractive and pleasing appearance, and which may be changedinto the desired house; or other similar article: by an unskilled person.
An embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 isa' perspective view showing the box after it has been transformed into a fling sheet is then cut orv broken along the -lines'1'1 and 12,"thus defining. the chimneys house.
Figure 2 1s a View partly broken away showing the box as it appears under normal conditions when it is adapted to receive shoes.
Figure 3 is an enlarged section on the line 3--3 of Figure 2. I fl Figure 4. is a view of the roof opened out Referring to the drawings, it will be seen that the device comprises an ordinary box having a main body portion 1 and a removable cover 2. The body portion and the cover are ornamented, as shown in Figure 2, to simulate chimneys 3, windows, 1, and
one or more doors 5. This ornamentation may be secured: by stamping the desired color and pattern upon the wrapping or finishing strip 6 (see Figure 3) which is secured to the top 2 and body portion 1.
A folded roof 7 formed of suitably colored pastboard is provided and is preferably equipped with a pair of score lines 8 along which it isnormally folded so that it may be readily stored in a flat condition in the bottom of the box, as shown in Figure 2, when the box is serving in its usual capacity,
Objects of this invention are to provide an 1 1c, 1925. Serial No. 9,578.
as a shoe container or carton. This'roof plate is further scored centrally, as indicated at 9, so that it may be folded along this line to provide theridge or peak ofthe'roof, as shown in Figure 1. g 3
It is to be further noted from Figure 4 that the roof is provided with elongated rectangular slots orcut-outs 10 adjacent .lts
ends for a purpose hereinafter to appear. i
' Referring particularlyto Figures 2 and 3, it will be seenthat the main portion 2 of the top is cut out, as indicated at- 11 in Figures 2 and? This cut or line of severing-extends along the upper portion ofthe outline ofthe chimney 3, asindicated at Figure 2; Itjoins a similar cut or line of severing 12 which; extends downwardly in a slanting direction from opposite sides of "the chimneyIto the corners of the box. The
'finishing cover6, however, isunaltered and extends in unbroken continuity across the lines of severing and is preferably folded around the edges of the flanges or margins ofthe top and body portion of, the box.
WVhen the purchaser desires-to'change the box into a toy house, it is merely necessary to remove the foldedtop 7 fromwthe'box, open it outflat' and thereafter fold it along the score line 9; The cover sheet 6' or finishand the triangular sections 13at the ends of the house. This-chlmney with thetriangular section is turned upwardly at each I end of the top of the box and the projecting portions of the chimneys are passed through the slots 10, the roof lying snugly upon the slanting portions at the lines 12. Thus a finished and attractive toy house is formed by this manipulation of the vshoe box, and.
ing may extend. around the door 5, if desired,
door in an unbroken manner as described,', and illustrated in detail 1n connection with and the finishing strip may pass over the Figure 3.
It is to be noted from this disclosure that an ordinary shoe box is provided whichis so constructed that after it has served its capacity as a shoe carton. it may be instantly changed by an unskilled operator into an attractive toy house.
Thus a strong appeal will be made to children which will aid in selecting shoes packed in this form of shoe box, which may be subsequently used as an attractive toy, rather than shoes packed in the ordinary shoe boxes which latter are discarded after they have served their single purpose as shoe cartons.
It will be seen further that the device may be readily constructed at a very small expenseto provide the additional attraction of a convertible carton adapted to be quickly changed into a toy house.
Although the invention has been described in considerable detail, it is to be understood that the invention may be variously em bodied and is, therefore, to be limited only as claimed.
I claim:
1. A display carton comprising a body portion having side and end walls and a top section and a bottom section, one of said sections having lines of cleavage defining projections adapted to be folded outwardly, and a, foldable sheet member normally carried within said carton andhaving apertures adapted to receive said projections when said sheet member is removed from said carton and said projections have been outwardly folded.
2. A display carton comprising a body portion having side and end walls and a top section and a bottom section, one of said sections having lines of cleavage extending only part way through such section and defining chimneys, and a foldable roof member normally carried within said carton and having apertures to receivesaid chimneys when said sheet member is removed from said carton and said chimneys are outwardly folded.
3. A display carton provided with a rectangular body portion having side and end walls and a top section and bottom section, such sections being ornamented to represent a house having chimneys, said body portion having lines of cleavage defining a portion of such chimneys, and a foldablc roof section normally carried within said carton and having apertures for the reception of said chimneys, said foldable roof section normally lying within said carton as a separate member therefrom when the device is employed in the capacity of an ordinary earton, and being adapted to be removed from said -arton and fitted on top thereot when the device is used as a display carton.
4. A display carton'adapted to contain an article and to function in the normal capacity of a carton and comprising a body portion having side and end walls and a top section and a bottom section, said sections being formed of main sheets. and continumis finishing sheets, the main sheet of said top section having lines of cleavage outlining chimneys, and a foldable root section scored longitudinally and having elongated apertures extending across said score line and adapted to receive the chimneys when such chimneys have been outwardly folded and the roof removed from said carton.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand at h'lilwaul-tee. in the county of Milwaukee, and State of \Visconsin.
