connmnn'r PACKAGE.
Application filed June 23,
This invention relates to an individual container for salt, pepper, or other food seasoning generally placed in a holder and distherefrom through perforations formed in a cover.
The invention supplies an individual package, of salt, for instance, which holds a small quantity, usually sufficient for one person, which may be discarded at the end of a meal, or after service, since the cost is insignificant.
The invention provides a package which keeps the contents dry and insures a positive feed thereof, since any tendency of the contents to cake is offset by loosening the same by manipulatingthe package between. the
'fingers. of the hand, said package being formed of flexible material, as paper, which is parafli'ned'or otherwise treated to render it water-proof.
While the drawings illustrate a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is to be understood that in adapting the means to meet specific needs and requirements, the design may be varied and such other changes in theminor details of construction may be resorted to within the scope of the invention as claimed, without departing from the spirit thereof.
For a full understanding of the invention and the merits thereof, reference is to be had to the following description and the drawings hereto attached, in which,
Figure l'is a perspective view of an individual condiment package, embodying the invention, showing the manner of use when dispensing the contents.-
Figure 2 is a longitudinal, sectional view of the package.
Figure 3 is a transverse sectional view on the line 3-3 of Figure 2, looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 4 is a detail view of the blank from which the body of the ackage is formed.
Figure 5 is a viewo the blank from which the binder and cover are formed.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and design'ated in the several views of the drawings by like reference characters.
The body of the package or holder for receiving salt, pepper, or other article is formed from a blank having the outline substantially as shown in Figure 4, and comprising a back 1, sides 2, a sectional front consisting of flaps 1927. Serial No. 200,921.
3, an end closure 4, and tabs 5. The sides 2 taper throughout their length in the same direction and result in the formation of a package of wedge shape. The sections or flaps 3 forming the front, are adapted to overlap to insure a close joint to prevent escape of the contents of the package. The tabs '5 are located at the smaller ends of the sides 2 and fold inwardly against the inner side of the end closure 4. The end 4 overlaps the flaps or sections 3, as indicated most clearly in Figure 1 of the drawings. The wide ends of the sides 2 curve outwardly, thereby resulting in the dispensing end of the package being convex in transverse section, as indicated most clearlyin Fi ures 1 and 2 of the drawmgs. indicated in Figure 4, and is made secure by means of a combined binder and cover, as indicated most clearly in Figure 1, said binder and cover being formed from a blank substantially as indicated in Figure 5.
The blank from which the binder and cover are formed is elongated and comprises flaps 6 and 7 an end 8, a cover 9, lateral straps 10 and 11 and a longitudinal strap 12. The flaps 6 and 7 are folded one upon the other to bring the end 8 and cover 9 together. The lateral straps 10 and 11 are folded transversely and are adhesively secured at their ends to the opposite side of the flap 6, whereby to form loops which extend across the front and sides of the package. The binding loops 10 and 11 are disposed to engage opposite end portions of the package and since the latter is of wedge form in its length, the binding loops correspondingly vary in size to snugly embrace the package and hold it in the required shape. The end 8 is perforated and a terminal portion is tucked within the package against the inner side of The blank olds along the dotted lines I the front, as indicated at 13. The cover 9 extends over the perforated end 8 and is held in closed position by passing the strap 12 beneath the loops 10 and 11, as indicated most clearly in Figure 2 of the drawings.
It is observed that the body of the package forming the holder is devoid of glued joints, thereby insuring a cheap structure and preventing the glue or other adhesive from interfering with the contents of the package. The body of the package and the combined binder and cover are separately formed, and after the body blank has been folded, it is made secure by slipping thereover the binder, this erably consist of paper, the same being paraffined or otherwise treated to render it moisbeing faeilitatedby reason of the wedge form of the package and the varying size of the ture-proof, thereby preventing salt from becoming damp, and tending to eake. It is further observed that the sides of the package are flexible, and anytendency of the contents to cake may be overcome by compressing the package between the fingers of the hand,
thereby loosening the contents so that the same will readily discharge through the perforations-in the end 8, when the package is shaken, as commonly practiced when dispensing the contents of a condiment holder. The package may be of any determinate size according to the article to be. placed therein, and after use may be thrown away because the initial cost is insignificant. The invention provides an article admirably adapted for the use of tourists and picnickers and may be ad vantageously used in public eating places to insure cleanliness and prevent exposure of food seasonings, and condiments from miscellaneous handling and from dust, insects, and other contaminating causes. 1
Having thus described the invention, I claim: v 1. A condiment container comprising a body open .at one end, and a slipon binder for the container having a perforatedportion adapted to extend over the open end of the body and provided with a cover portion to extend'over the perforated end to close the openings thereof.
2. A container of the character specified comprising a body open at oneend, a slip-on binder therefor including overlying flaps, a perforated portion to extend over the open end of the body, and a'cover portion for closing the openings of the perforated portion.
3. A container'of the character specified comprising a body open at one end, and a slipon binder having an end portion perforated and adapted to close the open end of the body and having the opposite end portion forming a cover to extend over and close the openings in the perforated end. i
4. A container of the character specified comprising a wedge shaped body open at the larger end, and a slip-on binder including a perforated portion to extend over the open end the body, and a cover portion for closing the openings in the perforated end.
5. A container of the character specified comprising a body open atone end, and a-slip on binder therefor comprising spaced loops to embrace and confine the body, a perforated portion to extend over the open end of the ody, a cover portion for closing the openings of the perforated end, and a cover se- 'curing strap which is adapted to be tucked beneath the said loops. I
6. In a container of the character specified, a slip-on binder formed from a blank comprising flaps, a perforated end having an extension, a cover at the opposite end, a longitudinal strap projecting outwardly from the cover, and lateral straps projecting from one 7. An individual condiment container com. prising a Wedge shaped body open at one end, and a slip-on binder therefor including a perforated end to extend over the open side of the body, a cover for the perforated end, a longitudinal strap and lateral straps forming confining loops. v
8. The combination with an elongated flat condiment container open at one end, of a cover consisting of an elongated blank folded intermediate .its ends and placed against a side of the container, with end portions extending over the open end thereof, the inner end portion being perforated and the outer end portion forming a closure for the perforations, and means for'securing the cover to the container.
9. The combination with an elongated flat condiment container open at one end, of a portion of the blank to the container, and independent means for securing the end closure of the outer folded portion of the blank. In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
