Patente'cl' Feb. 4, 1930 FAY'V. JOHNSON, OF EVANSVILLE,
INDIANA, ASSIGNOR T EVANSVILLE BASKET AND CRATE COMPANY, OF EVANSVILLE, INDIANA, A CORPORATION'OF INDIANA i BASKET COVER AND METHQD OI MAKING Application filed February 25, 1929. Serial No. 342,644.
This invention relates generally to the art I of basket making and particularly'to the method of making a cover or top for baskets. The principal object of the invention is to provide a method of making a top that may 7 be readily and quickly assembled from preformed parts on machinery now in use without the necessity of having to develop special machines therefor, whereby the top may be formed principally of die cut straw-board or similar heavy paper or card board in place of the heretofore commonly used veneer strips of wood, and whereby the card board may be firmly and securely held by hoops so that the cover'may be attached to baskets to afford complete protection to the contents.
The form of the invention herein described is particularly well adapted for use on baskets intended to carry fruit or vegetables though it is not limited to such usage.
Reference is made to the accompanying drawing,in whicln Fig. 1 is a top perspective View of thevarious members in disassembled relation;
Fig. 2, a side elevation of the members ready to be pressed together;
Fig. 3, a top plan view of the completed cover; h i
Fig. 4, a fragmentary side'elevationof the completed cover; and
Fig. 5, a diametrical section on the line 55 in Fig. 3. A A
Like characters of reference indicate like I parts throughout the several views in the drawing. I
I preform an inner hoop in the usual manner by bringing the ends of a strip of wood around in a circle to lap one over the otherto define a hoop of a diameter that may be varied by slipping the ends along, one over the other.
A piece of heavy card board 11 is cut to have a plurality of indentions about its periphery to define tongues .12 therebetween,
and these tongues are scored on a circumferential line 13 so that the outer'ends of the tongues maybe bent angularly from the plane of the board 11.
' I form a second or outer hoop 14 in the same manner as the hoop 10 is formed, but
staple the ends together to define a hoop having a fixed inside diameter substantially equal to the diameter of the score line 13.
To assemble the parts, the board 11 is laid concentrically on the hoop 10 to have the ends of the tongues 12 outside of the line 13 projecting beyond the hoop 10. The hoop 14 is then laid concentrically on the board 11 to rest entirely on the projecting or overhanging tongue ends and the hoop 14 is pressed downwardly to carry the tongueends down between the two hoops 10 and 14, after which the hoop 10 is expanded to compress the downturned tongue ends snugly against the outer hoop l4, and the two hoops 10 and 14 are then stapled together by passing staples 15 through both hoops and each of the tongues to thoroughly secure the tongue ends therebetween.
Two of the diametrically opposite tongue ends may be out off on the score line, and a slat 16 passed over the top edges of the hoops, Fig. 3, and under the board 11 to have an end projecting at each side, and staples are passed through the board and slat to secure the slat against longitudinal displacement. The slat is employed in the customary manner well known to those versed in the art to secure the cover on a basket (not shown) by passing the slat ends under the handles of the basket. Y
It is to be noted that the tongue ends are completely covered and hence are not subject to wear and tear as arises in the usual handling of the covers in usage on baskets in shipment. It is also to be noted that all nailing or stapling of the board to the narrow top edges of the hoops is avoided in contradistinction to the heretofore usual method of attaching veneer strips to hoops to form a cover.
I claim:
1. The method of forming a basket cover comprising preforming an inner hoop with its ends loosely lapping each other, preforming a cover board to have a plurality of tongues projecting peripherally therefrom, preforming an outer hoop of fixed diameter, placing the board. over the inner hoop, placing the outer hoop over the board, pressing the outer hoopagainst the board to bend the tongues downwardly from the board between the two hoops and then expanding the inner hoop to press the downward tongue-ends against the outer hoop.
2. The method of forming a basket cover comprising preforming aninner hoop with its ends loosely lapping each other, preforming a cover board to have a plurality of tongues projecting peripherally therefrom, preforming an outer hoop of fixed diameter, placing the board over the inner hoop, placing the outer hoop over the board, pressing the outer hoop against the board to bend the tongues downwardly from the board between the two hoops and then expanding the inner hoop to press the downward tongue-ends against the outer hoop, and passing a staple through both hoops and each of said tongues therebet-ween.
3; The method of forming a basket cover comprising preforming an inner hoop, preiorming a coverboard to have a plurality of tongues projecting peripherally therefrom, preforming an outer hoop to have a fixed diameter, bending the outer ends of said tongues to come within the said outer hoop, placing the inner hoop within the circle defined by the turned ends of said tongues, expanding said inner hoop to cause said ends of the tongues to be compressively engaged between it and said outer hoop, and stapling the two hoops together with the said ends a therebetween to form a unitary cover.
In testimony whereof I a'fliX my signature.
FAY V. JOHNSON.
