PACKING CONTAINER lFiled April 4, 1929 l lll Patented Dec. 29, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT' oFFlcE' HANS KNRER, F NURMBERG, GERMANY, ASSIGNR TO THE FIRM A. W. FABER CASTELL-BLEISTIFT-FABRIK A.G., OF STEIN, NEAR NUREMBERG, GERMANY PACKING CONTAINER Application filed April 4, 1929, Serial No.
This invention relates to packing containers for lead and coloured pencils, writing materials or other articles, which differ from containers of a known kind in this, that they comprise an inner box adapted to the kind of articles to be packed in them, which are provided with a fancy enclosure forming a toy figure, so that the container serves two purposes, acting both as a container for the articles and as a toy. A lat rectangular inner box with a projecting edge is particularly suitable for adaptation as a toy, as the broad walls of the box may suitably be used as supports for lining or enveloping parts which determine the external shape of the toy figure. The enveloping parts consist for instance of two stamped out pieces of cardboard corresponding to the contour lines of the toy to be represented, the edges of the surfaces of which are connected by a, transverse wall, so that the finished packing container produces the impression of a flat-end wooden figure. The cardboard pieces may either be ixed, for instance by an adhesive, to the broad sides of the inner box or may themselves form the walls of the box. In the latter case a cardboard strip inserted vertically.l between the two pieces of cardboard acts as a bounding wall forthe space for the reception of the articles.
v The longitudinal axisof the inner box may beparallel, at an inclination to, or perpendicular lto the' longitudinal direction of the toy ligure. The cross-sectional shape of the inner box may instead of being rectangular be round, oval, polygonal or any other shape. The most suitable forms for the toy ligure are those representing human beings or ani-` mals. Y
In the accompanying drawings a constructional example of the invention is shown, Fig.- 1 being a longitudinal section through the still uncovered packing container on line A-A of Fig. 3,
Fig. 2 a longitudinal section on line B-B of Fig. 3,
Fig. 3 a cross-section on line C-C of Fig. 1,
Fig. 4 a perspective view of the finished packing container and f Fig. 5 a detail to an enlarged scale.
352,553, and n Germany June 21, 1928.
The packing container consists of a Hat, rectangular inner box which is formed in a known manner of the upper side 1 and the lower. side 2 with the inserted box neck 3 and of a fancy envelope 4 (Fig. 4) which also consists of an upper and a lower part, the joint between the upper and lower side of the inner box lying in the same plane as the joint 4a between the upper and lower part of the envelope. The inner-box serves as .a receptacle for the articles to be packed-or instance the lead pencils 5 (Fig. 3).
The packing containerA is made in the fol lowing way: First of all the inner box is made, the narrow and broad walls 6, 7, 8 and 9 of which are creased and bent from a single piece of cardboard and are connected together at the abutting longitudinal edges by a paper strip 10 (Fig. 5). The upper and lower end walls 11 and .12 are glued in so as to be Hush. The box neck 3 is stuck in in a known manner into the lower wall 2. Aft-er the inner box has been completely made, the parts of the figure in the form. of iiat pieces 13 and 14 of cardboard orthe like are glued on to the two broad side walls 6 and 8, the contours of the said envelope being stamped out to represent a toy figure. The parts of these cardboard pieces projecting beyond the upper end of the inner box .are accurately kept apart at the required .distance from one another by a reinforcing strip 15 bent in the form of a U, so that the marginal edges of the pieces of cardboard are equidistant from one another over their entire contour line.
The narrow marginal surfaces 16 and 17 of the pieces of cardboard' are thereupon connected together along their periphery by aI cardboard strip 18. The cardboard framework thus made isthereupon covered with coloured printed paper bearing pictorial representations. The printed sheets of paper 19, 20 correspond in shape to the pieces ofV cardboard, but are madel slightly larger, so that, when being stuck on, the edges 19a and 20@ can be bent over, so that atidy edge is obtained. The transverse wall 18 whichv is not vet covered can thenbe covered by a suitably printed paper strip 21 which covers the edges 19a and 20a. `The whole of the envelope comprising the cardboard framework 13, 14, 18, and its paper covering is cut through kto form a joint 4a at the same level as the -j oint between the upper and lower parts of the inner box.
Both pieces of cardboard or only one may of course be covered with paper bearing pictorial representations,the other piece of cardboard being in the latter casecovered with white or single-coloured Apaper.V The new packing container, owing to its being made in the Iorm of a standing ure, is particu# larly suitable for shop-win o w advertising purposes. For special cheap advertising containers or toys the packing container may be so constructed that only one broad Side ofthe box containing the goods is provided with a piece of cardboardrepresenting the toy. The inner box may be made in the form of a box with a slip onf slidin or hinged lid. In the first case the joint o the two parts of the box or envelope will be a short distance above the base surface. When made in the form of a box with a sliding lid, the envelope will have no joint. The pieces of cardboard will then extend straight through to the bottom and the Rlower part of the box have an end surface correspondixgl in size to the base surface of the toy.
en a boxwith a hinged lid is to be used as the container .a part of the piece of cardboard must be made in the form of a flap.
What I claim is :V
1. A packing container for lead and coloured pencils and other articles in the form of a toy figure which is capable of being placed 1n an erect position, comprising in combination a Hat inner box in two parts, two pieces of card formed to correspond to the outline of the desired toy figure, secured to the broad sides of the box, and a strip of card joining the edges of the two pieces of card and surrounding the box, the strip and the two pieces of card bein cut at the point where the inner box is divi e 2. A packing container for lead and coloured pencils and other articles in the form of a toy ligure which is capable of being placed 1n an erect' position, as claimed in claim 1 in which the inner box is of rectangun lar shape.
3. A packing container for lead and coloured pencils and other articles in the form of a toy figure which is capable of being placed in an erect position, comprisingin combination a flat inner box in two parts disposed one above the other, two pieces of card formed to correspond to the outline of the desired toy figureI one secured to the front and the other to the back of the box, and a strip of card joining the edges of the two pieces of card and surrounding the box, the strip and the two pieces of card bein cut at the point where the inner box is divi ed.
4. A packing container for lead and ,col-
oured pencils and other articles in the form of a toy figure which is capable of being placed in an erect position, comprising in combination a flat inner box in two parts disposed one above the other, an inserted box neck, and an outer envelope, also in two parts, consisting of two pieces of card, both of the same shape, formed to correspond to the outline of the desired toy figure and secured to the back and front of the box and a strip of card joining the edges of the two pieces of card and surrounding the inner box, the joint between the upper and lower parts of the box lying in the same place as the joint between the upper and lower parts of the buter envelope.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
