PATENT OFF-ICE MISSOURI, AssIeNoR' 'ro GEREKE-ALLEN CARTON COMPANY, or ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI, A CORPORATION or MISSOURI 'PACKING- OR SHIPPING CONTAINER Application filed August 11, 1926. Serial No. 128,568.?
cardboard or other suitable sheet material,
combined handles and reinforcing elements formed by wooden members that are permanently attached to the outside faces of two of the opposed vertical walls of said body portion at the upper edges of said walls, and .a cover formed by two flaps permanently attached to the upper edge portions of the other opposed vertical walls of said body portion and adapted to be secured in their closed position by simply drivin a few nails, tacks or the like through said aps into said wooden members. Said wooden members are preferably attached to the end walls of the body por tion of the container by staples, rivets or other suitable fastening devices that can be inserted by a machine and the flaps that constitute the cover of the container are provided with hinged flanges that are attached to the side walls of the body portion and also to the ends of said wooden members.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a perspective view of my improved container, showing the cover flaps of same closed.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of'said container, showing oneof the cover flaps partly raised; and
Figure 3 is a transverse sectional view, taken on the line 33 of Figure 2.
-Referring to the drawings which illustrate the preferred form of my invention, A designates the body portion of the container which is preferably of oblong shape and integrally connected to said bottom, and end i.
walls. 3 integrally connected to said bottom and each composed of a plurality of overlapping portions permanently connected together, as shown in Figure 1. Each end wall of the body portion is reinforced and strengthened by a wooden member B arranged parallel to the upper edge of said wall and secured to the outer face of same preferably by staples 4 or other suitable fastening devices that can be inserted by a machine, said wooden members projecting laterally from the end walls far 'enoughto serve as handles in the operation of lifting or carrying the container.
The body portion A is p rovided with a lid or cover formed by two flaps C that are preferably constructed of cardboard or similar material and provided with flanges 5 that are permanently attachedby staples 6 or the like to the upper edge portions of the side walls 2 of the body portion said cover flaps being so arranged that the flanges f same lap over the outer faces of the side walls, Each of the cover flaps C is preferably provided with a longitudinally-disposed crease F that extends parallel. to the flange 5, so as to virtually form a hinge between the flap and the flange on same that connects the flap to the body portion of the container, this construc-.
means of fastening devices inserted by a ma:
chine. The cover flaps C are a trifle longer than the body portion of the container, so that they will lap over the wooden members B, and said flaps are made wide enough so, that the free edge portions of same will overlap when they are arranged in their closed position. As shown in Figure 1, the flanges 5' of the cover flaps extend over the ends of the wooden membersB and are attached to said wooden members by nails or other suitable.
fastening-devices driven into the ends of the members B.
One. of the principal advantages of a conthe container can be secured quickly and easily in their closed position simply by driving a few nails, tacks or other fastening devices a: through the flaps into the wooden members B, but said container has many other desirable features, i. e., it is inexpensive to manufacture, it is rigid enough to enable it to be used for shipping heavy material or products, it
is absolutely tight, as the cover flaps are nailed directly to the upper edges of the wooden members B and are provided with flanges 5 that project beyond the end walls and lap over the ends of the members B to which they are secured by nails driven into the ends of said members, it has handles at the-ends of same which enable it to be picked up easily and car-' ried, and it is of such design that a plurality of containers can be arranged in nested relation, thereby enabling a large number of containers to be packed or stored in a small space.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
A container, comprising a body portion formed from a single sheet of cardboard or other suitable sheet material bent, folded so as to produce a bottom and upright side walls integrally connected to said bottom, overla'pping end wall flaps integrally connected to said bottom and side walls, a relatively thick wooden member attached to the outside face of each end wall of the box at the upper edge of same, overlapping cover flaps formed by separate pieces of material, proportioned so as to. overlap the top edges of said wooden members and adapted to be held in a closed position by fastening devices driven directly into said wooden members, and integral flanges on said cover flaps arranged in overlapping relation with the side walls and permanently attached to the upper edge'portlons of same, said flanges overlapping the ends of said wooden members and being secured to same by fastening devices driven into the ends of said wooden members.
