Thisinvention relates generally to boxes, constitute acontainer, the ends of the top, crates, and other containers, and more parbottom, and side members extend inside of ticularly to a fastener for holding parts of the battens A of the endmembers, "and the container together both in the assembled those battens abut the battens Bof the side 5 and package formt v I members.v The members A, B, and C, pref- 60 It is an object of the invention to provide erably are rectangular in plan, and m'ema fastener of improved form that not only bers that are positioned oppositely in the may be used instead of that shown by Fig. container are substantially identical, in 8 of my United States-Patent N 0. 1,468,340 order that they may be used interchange 10 for holding together elements of a box or ab yq, A 3 I crate assembled, for example, as disclosed The side. battens-.B and the walls of the by F igsl, 5, and 6 and'in a package of dis end members and the battens ,A thereof assembled parts as shown, for example, by that'abut the battens B" are formed with Fig. 7 of that patent, but also otherwise in holes or passages D, which are positioned v a container, whereby there is afforded a desothat those of abutting or opposite battens 7 vice of a single type that is capable of meetare alined when the parts areassembled as ing various requirements in structures of this a container, general class.

However, in order to afbodi-Inent of the inventionand its manner ford a fastener that will answer that purof use are disclosed, for purposes of illuspose as well and also be more'suitable for tration. v I employment in other ways in a container, Although the disclosures herein exemplify I have provided the fastener disclosed herewhat now is considered to be a preferable in.

As seen in Fig. 2, the nut having threaded. engagement with one shank is beyond the nut having similar engagement with the other shank. Thus the two nuts of the opposed shanks are lapped and holdthe two shanks together and the'container parts in package form.
The fastener of this invention not only may be employed as exemplified by Figs. 1 and 2, but it also may be used otherwise to a box, crate, or other container together. For example, the platelike-nut may be set into a batten of one wall of a container and the screw turned through an abutting batten of another'wall and into the nut, asshown by Fig. 3; or the nut maybe placed against a side of a batten and heldthereon by a nail or other holding member driven through the nonthr'ea'ded opening and the screw turned through an abutting batten into the threaded opening of the nut, as shown by Having thus described my invention,
ean-n25 what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A package of container parts having fastener-openings in its outer members, and fasteners comprising threaded shanks disposed i'nwardly through said openings and nutsarr-anged in lapping pairs and each nut having a threaded opening and another opening through which one of said shanks is movable freely, each of said shanks extending first through the latter opening of one nut and into engagement with the threaded opening of the other.
2. A fastener comprising two threaded shanks arranged to be disposed in two oppositely- )ositioned parts for the purpose of holding them together and having heads capable ofbearing against the outside of said parts, and nuts arranged 'in lapping pair's, each nut having a threaded opening and another opening through which either of said shanks is movable freely, and each of said shanksextending first through the latter opening of one nut and into engagement with the threaded opening of the other. In testimony whereof I. afliX my signature.
