ADJUSTABLE PACKING CASE Filed May 4.. 1928 2 'Sheets-Sheet 2 nvenior Ilan L'rnd( By %f Z W W /6 fj' Allarney Patented June 9, 1931 PAH-:1WA oFpFlcE ALLAN L. BRACK, OF ROCHESTER, NEW 'YORK ADJUSTABLE PACKING CASE Application filed May 4, 1928. Serial N'o. 275,160.
The object of this invention is to provide a new and improved packing material or packing case for bottles, lamp bulbs, pottery, books, metal boxes and other miscellaneous articles in which it is desirable to use a stock packing case for aconsiderable variety of articles of different shapes and sizes to each of which the case will adjust itself to fit the article, thus simplifying the packing of such merchandise for shipment.
Another object of the invention is to make the packing case from a blank of corrugated board, solid libre board or cardboard and make it so that it will fold up into shape with either side out, the case being made with flutes that will project inwardly or outwardly as may be desired.
These and other objects of the invention will be illustrated in the drawings, described in the specification and pointed out in the claims at the end thereof.
In the drawings;
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved stock packing case or container.
Figure 2 is a vertical section on the line 2m, 2m of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a horizontal section on the line 3m, 3m of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a plan view of the blanks from which the container shown in Figure 1 is folded up.
Figure. 5 is a modified form of the container shown in Figure 1 with the flutes extending outwardly7 therefrom.
Figure 6 is a horizontal sectionon the line 6m, 6m of Figure 5.
Figure 7 is a plan view of the blank from which the container shown in Figure 5 is folded up.
In the drawings like reference numerals indicate like characters.
In the drawings reference numeral 1 indicates a one sheet blank of cardboard, solid fibre board or corrugated board cut and scored and bent along the lines indicated. As shown in Figure 4 the square or rectangular flaps or sections 2, 3, 4 and 5 at the top turn down to close the upper end of the box or tube shown in Figure 17 and similar flaps at the bottom of the sheet close in to close as far as the V the lower end of the box or tube. These sections are joined to the main body of the sheet on the scored lines 6, 7, 8 and 9. The body of the sheet is made up of panels 10, 11, 12 and 13 which are preferably formed so as to ex- 5? tend in a series of four across the sheet so as to make a rectangular box although it is 'obvious a series of 3, 5 or 6 or even more could be used in which 4the box or container folded therefrom would bepof the shape' to correspond. These panels are connected horizontally by the scores 31, 32, 33 and 34 and are joined vertically by the flutes 14, 15, 16 and 17 which are joined to the panels on the scored lines 18, 19, 2O and 21 so that thefstock bends readily along these lines. The panels 10,11, 12 and 13 etc.l thatare in one line and are connected bythe scores may when the blank is folded into a box or container y Vbe referred to as a ring of panels. The sheet mayy have as manypanels 10, 11, 12 and 18 up and down or in column therein as it is desired, and as shown vin Figure 1 four of such panels are contained in each column of the sheet and the box formed therefrom. The sheet is cut away at one end of each of theflutes 14, 15, 16 and 17 with the V shaped( recess which permits the flutes to bend 1n whenthe box is folded to the form shown in Figure 1 and the flutes can' be compressed shaped recesses will permit them to compress and the box will be made thereby correspondingly smaller on the inside and will be made correspondingly shorter as the flutes are compressed. Each of the panels 10 is provided with a tongue 25 which overlaps on the panel 13 when the box is folded and isstapled or glued thereto and the sides of the Vbox are joined together thereby so that a tube is formed when the sides are thus connected. v
As shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3 the blank shown in Figure 4 is bent with the liutes projecting inwardly therefrom, but the blank may be bent` in the other direction or in other words, the box' may be turned inside out so that Vthe flutes will extend outwardly from lthe box as is shown in Figure 5, in which case the V shaped recesses between' the panels are not needed.-
As shown in Figure 7 the panels 41, 42, 43 .and 44 are joined together horizontally by the scores 45, 46, 47 and 48 and are joined together vertically by the flutes 51, 52, 53 and 54.Which are bent on the four lines shown therein on lWhich lines they are suitably scored. The flutes 51, 52, 53 and 54 are separated from each other by the vertical slits 55, 56, 57 and 58. In either blank 60'and may be left separate from each other as shown in Figure 4 or may be joined by the fluted sections as shown in Figure 7.
The blank, as shown in Figure 7 may be formed into a box as shown in Figure 6 and the tongue 60 may be stapled to the panels 44 thus forming a complete box. The flaps Y2, 3, 4 and 5 serve to close the top and bottom vof the box just the same as do the flaps shown in Figure 4. j
It will be seen `from the foregoing that rany one of several sizes of bottles can be put in 2. A packing case having panels arranged in rings and columns with a plurality of panels in each column, the panels in each ring being connected by scores and the panels in each column being connected by flutes all formed of a single sheet of paper proda container shown in Figure l and the con f tainer can thenvbe compressed lengthwise Which Will cause the flutes to bend in against the bottle gripping itv and holding it firmly in place after which tape can be Wound around the container lengthwise-.thus firmly holding the package in this particular shape. In like manner a .lamp bulb or avvase can be enclosed in the container and securely, fastened therein so that the container With the Iarticle contained therein can be vthrown about With little or no possibility of damage done .to What is held therein. l
The container shown in Figure5 is adapted to receive larger articles, and in. Figure 5 the Hutes all adjust themselves to the size of the-article in the sense that they do not bear against the article, but act as cushions for 'the package after it has been formed around 'thearticle because they extend out- `Ward therefrom. These containers may be made of any size so that `large metal boxes and radio cabinets and other similar products may be contained-therein for shipment, and the container Will fully product is enclosed therein.
It Will be understood that the flaps l, 2, 3 and 4 may be made of any length or breadth or may be omitted in Which case the container maybe used as a liner for another box. -The corner tongues 25and 60 maybe omitted in special casesl as Well.
I claim: Y Y Y A l. A packing case having panels'arranged in rings and columns With a plurality of panels inreach column, the panels in each ring being connected by scores and the pan els in each Acolumn being connected by flutes all formed of a single .sheet'of paper products, said case being-compressible lengthwise by moving the panels toward each other and bendingthe flutes between them,-the flutes being-bent inwardlyagainst the article contained in the package.
