PACKING BOX.
Application filed September 6, 1927. Serial No. 217,717.
The main objects of this invention are: First, to provide an improved packing box by means of which fragile articles are effectively supported so that the box may be subjected to quite severe handling "without injury to the contents.
Second, to provide an improved packing box or container which'is adapted to effective 1y support the contents in a suspended position and so that the contents are shielded from shocks and external-blows.
Third, to provide an improved filler or article holder for packing boxes which is very economical and light in weight and per- 1 mits the rapid insertion or removal of the packed article.
Objects pertaining to details and economies of my invention will definitely appear from the description to follow.
I accomplish the objects of my invent-ion by the devices and means described in the following specification. The invention is clear- 1y defined and pointed out in the claims.
A device embodying my invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawing forming a part of this application, in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective View of a suitable box or container, shown conventionally.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view illustrating improved packing box or container filler or holder in a practical embodiment thereof.
Fig. 3 is a detailed vertical section of my improved packing box on line 3-3 of Figs. 1 and 2.
Fig. 4 is a plan view of the blank from which the holder shown in Fig. 2 is formed.
Fig. 5 is a plan view of the blank in which thecontainer illustrated is formed.
Fig. 6 is the vertical section of a modified formor embodiment of my improvements in which a pair of the holders are arranged in a single container.
Fig. 7 is a perspective view of one of the holders of the embodiment shown in Fig. 6.
Fig. 8 is aplan view of the blank of the embodiment shown in Figs. 6 and 7.
Referring to the drawing, the box or container 1 is of well-known type comprising side walls 2 provided with end flaps 3, the end flaps being folded down and secured by a sealing strip 4. The structural details, however, of the container form no part of this invention.
I provide a holder designated generallv by the numeral 5 and comprising side walls 6, the holder illustrated being rectangular.
These side walls 6 have flaps 7 at the edges thereof turned outwardly and fitting within the walls of the container constituting positioning members for the holder. The holder constitutes a reinforcing member for the container walls.
The blank from which the holder is formed has vertical-slits 8 at the corners thereof and slits 9 extending from the outer edges alined with the slits 8. The blank also has parallel longitudinal scores .10, 11 and 12, the scores 10 permitting easyfolding or bending of flaps 7 The slits 8 extend between the scores 11,. These scores 11 and 12 facilitate the bending of the side walls. The slits 8 permit the outward;bulging or diverging of the side walls between the slits 11. thereby forming inwardly facing recesses 13 adapted to receive the edges of an article supportedas indicated by dotted lines at 14, Fig. 2.
After the blank has been slitted and scored, the supporting recesses may be formed by collapsing the holder longitudinally, that is, owing to the walls having been scored and vertically slit, pressure on the holder will effectively bulge out its walls to article receiving position. The ends of the blank may be joined as is indicated in Fig. 2 by the joint strips 15.
In Figs. 6, 7 and 8 the holder is modified, a single score being provided between scores 11 so that the supporting recess 17 has a triangular form as clearly shown in Figs. 6 and 7 This variation especially adapts the holder for a tapered article such as the lamp shade 18 illustrated in Figs. 6 and 7.
In Fig. 6 the container 19 is of such dimensions as to receive a pair of the holders, the holders being separated by the partition 20 which serves as a further reinforcing member for the container.
When made of corrugated material or box board of suitable gauge the holders are quite economical to produce. The articles may be quickly inserted or removed therefrom and While light in. weight the material thereof is disposed so that the holder constitutes a substantial reinforcing member for the outer box or container and the articles are so supported that the package may be subjected. to very rough usage without likelihood of injuring the article mounted in the holder.
I have not attempted to illustrate or describe the various-modifications or adaptations of my improvement which might be desirable to adapt same to diiferent articles or to different types of containers as I believe the disclosure made will enable those skilled in the art to which my invention relates to embody or adapt same as may be desired.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desiie to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. The combination of a container, and a holder comprising connected side walls having out-turned flanges-at their edges fitting within the walls of the container constituting positioning members for the holder, the holder constituting a reinforcing member for the container, the side walls of the holder having spaced parallel horizontal scores therein facilitating bending and vertical slits at the corners extending between the outer scores, said side walls being collapsed vertically projecting the portions between the outer scores outwardly, providing inwardly facing recesses adapted to receive the edges of an article to be supported.
2. The combination of a container, and a holder comprising connected side walls having spaced parallel horizontal scores therein facilitating bendin and vertical slits at the corners extending between the outer scores, said side walls being collapsed vertically projecting the portions between the outer scores outwardly, providing inwardly facing recesses adapted to receive the edges of an article to be supported.
3. The combination of a container, and a holder comprising connected side walls having out-turned flanges at their edges fitting within the walls of the container, each side wall of the holder having spaced parallel scores therein and vertical slits at the corners extending between the outer scores, said side walls being bent at the scores providing inwardly facing recesses adapted to receive the edges of an article to be supported.
., 1.,The combination'of a container, and a holder comprising connected side walls having spaced parallel scores therein and vertical slits at the corners extending between the ou er scores, said side walls being bent at the scores providing inwardly faclng recesses adapted to receive the edges of an article to be sup orted.
5. T e combination of a container, and a holder comprising connected side walls supported in said container in spaced relation to its side walls, the side walls of said holder having vertical slits at the corners and a plurality of bends in the portions between the slits providing inwardly facing article engaging shoulders.
6. An article holder for containers comprising connected side Walls having s aced parallel horizontal scores therein acilitating bending and vertical slits at the corners extending between the outer scores, said side walls being collapsed vertically projecting the portions between the outer scores outwardly, providing inwardly facing recesses adapted to receive the edges of an article to be supported. I
7 A holder for containers comprising connected side walls having out-turned positioning flanges at their edges, each side wall havin g, spaced parallel scores therein and vertical slits at the corners extending between the outer scores, said side walls being bent at the scores providing inwardly facing recesses adapted to receive the edges of an article to be supported.
a 8. An article holder comprising connected side walls having vertical slits at the corners and a plurality of bends in portions between the slits providing inwardly facing article engaging shoulders. 4 l 9. A holder for containers comprising connected side walls, each side wall havin spaced parallel scores therein and vertical slits extending bet-ween the outer scores, said walls being bent at the scores providing article supporting shoulders.
10. An article holdercomprising connected side walls having vertical slits at the corners and a plurality of bends in the portions between the slits providing article engaging shoulders.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
