OIL PACKAGE Filed Oct, 23, 1925 Patented Aug. 7, 1928.
PATET OFFICE.
FREDERICK D. G-A-TCl'IEIJIJ, OF NEW N. Y;
OIL PACKAGE.
Application filed October 23, 19235. serial No. 64,383.
This invention is directed to a multi-unit package for the transportation, storage, and dispensing of liquids, and particularly to a package made up oi a series oi? similar con tainers connected for unit handling, and readily separable individually for use oi. the contents.
The multi-unit package of this invention, while designed for other and varied uses, is primarily intended for packaging oil in sealed containers, which containers are connected to a carrier in a manner to permit their ready separation therefrom at will; the carrier being adapted to form a cover for abox or carton for housing all oontaiitiers when not in use.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the multiunit package of this invention, the containers being shown in unit connection with the carrier and partly removed from the box or carton.
Fig. 2 is a broken bottom perspective view of the carrier, showing the lip formation for receiving and supporting the containers.
Fig. 3 is a broken perspective view of one of the containers.
Fig. t is a transverse section through the carrier and a connected container.
In the preferred form illustrated, the multi-unit package comprises a series of con tainers 1, preferably of cylindrical. term and of a material which will permit them to be discarded at little cost after use of their contents. The ends 2 ol the containers, or at least one end thereof, is of a material of such inherent strength as to stand the load strain of the weight of the contents, and such end is formed with diametriCally-opposed tongues 3, which present irce portions spaced from the end oil? the container.
A carrier l in the form of a plate is of a length to receive and support the desired number of containers for the unit package. The carrier is formed by stamping, or otherwise, with inturned lips 5, preferably by forming curved incisions 5 in the plate in opposed pairs and laterally extended in cisions at the relatively opposite ends of the curved incisions of each pair. The material thus divided is turned down or inwardly, forming lips having their free edges in op posite directions of the carrier. The cont ainers are connected to the carrier by passing the tongues 3 of a container over the free ends of the lips of an opposed pair, and turning the container until the tongues are arranged approximately transverse the carrier.' Each container will he thus secured to and depend "from the carrier in manner to permit its ready separation therefrom by a relative turning and sliding movement.
The carrier is designed for the reception of a particular number of containers, to thereby constitute a convenient package in accordance with the contemplated use thereof. For example, in the use of the containers tor oil for an automobile engine, the usual recharge oi? which is one quart, the containers will he of one-quart capacity and there will be 'lour such containers connected to the carrier. Oil? course, the package may be made of any nun'lbcr of containers and the containers may be of any necessary capacity, as all such variations are obviously within the spirit oi the invention. In the use of the package for oil storage, it is designed that each container may be thrown away after its contents has been used. This will permit the manufacturer to insure the original condition of the oil. in the containers, and if desired one oi the lips 8 may be designed to be torn away from the top oi? the container to provide a pouring outlet. This will prevent the ire-application ot the container to the carrier, and thus prevent its relill as a part of this multi-unit package.
A hi ghly desirable, but not absolutely es sential part of the iaclmge, is a box or carton i, which snugly receives the containers, and on which the carrier hits as a closure, the edges oi: the carrier being in the form oi curved flanges S for a more or less sealing lit. The carton may be cushioned, as at 9, so that when the package complete with the carton, there is provided a neat and well protected unit, admirably ad opted to he carried as a part of the automobile equipment. No leakage is possible, and as the containers remain in original scaled condition until their contents are actually used, and those connected with the carrier are snugly housed in the carton, the user is assured oi the puri ty and known quantity of oil available for use. A. container is instantly available by withdrawing the unit from the carton and separating a container from the carrier, the remaining containers and carrier being re placed, and the used container thrown away.
It is preferred that the containers be of quart capacity, making the package, as shown, of gallon capacity. Of course the containers may be of any capacity, and any number may be applied to the carrier.
What is claimed as new, is
1.-Means for carrying independent cans or like sealed containers, comprising a box or casing to receive a row of cans, cans having their tops equipped With upstanding angular lugs, and an element performing the duel oflice of a cover for the box and a clip for the cans, said element having pairs of reversely formed depending claws adapted for engagement or disengagement with said lugs.
