This invention relates to boxes and crates and particularly to sectional wirebound boxes and crates.
Among other objects the invention is intended to provide certain improvements contributing to the strength and rigidity of box and crate structures, particularly of thesectional wirebound type; said improvements being hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention will be clearly understood by reference to one illustrative embodiment thereof shown in the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure l is a top plan view of a wirebound sectional box blank embodying the invention. Figure 2 is a side elevation of the same.
Figure 3 is an enlarged top plan view of a portion of the box blank of Figure l.
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on the line 4--4 of Figure 3.
Figure 5 is an enlarged perspective View of the box blank of Figure l folded into box form; certain parts being broken away for clearness of illustration.
The box selected for illustration is of the wirebound type having a smooth inner surface free from projections.
The illustrative box blank as shown `in Figures l and 2 comprises four separate sections, A, B, C and D, foldably connected by wires W to provide, when folded, the four sides of a wirebound box. Each section comprises a sheet or sheets of side material l, an interior cleat 2 secured to the side material at one end of the section, and an exterior .cleat 3 secured to the side material at the other end of the section. The ends of exterior cleats 3 are preferably grooved, and the wire W which overlies the exterior cleates is preferablyVK bowed over the intervals between adjacent exterior cleat ends to facilitate folding the V strongly resist any tendency of one section box blank from the flat into box form.
When the blank is folded into box form the ends of the wires W are joined by intertwisting or otherwise,'to complete the Wire binding and retain thesections in box form. When in box form, the interior cleates 2 form a supporting frame at the bottom of the box to receive a bottom section placed thereon and to resist bulging and inward displace- 1929; serial' No: 364,781. l
Exterior cleats-3, however,`do not offer or' strips are provided at the uppercorners o of the box, as shown in Figure 5. Said metal bandsor strips arey locatedbetween'` the side material l and theexterior cleats 3 andaextend over the intervals between sections. The;
frictio'nal contactbetween the side material g5 andthe exterior cleats is usually sufficient to? hOldbands l in position,y but, they may be stapled-tothe' side material and `exterior cleats byoneor more staples. l Theme tgl bands 4? are usually incorporatedin the structure at the timev of-the assembling and wiring of the materials for the box blank.` Such assembling and wiring operations .arenusually performed on a box blank machine which positions and feeds the assembledv boxppart-s to stapl'ing mechanismfor the wireapplying operation. The metal bands t may be placed in position between the side-material and thel cleats and fed therewithl to the sta-pling mechanism.A
` f When thje .box blank is folded fromthe fiat into boxk form,y the metal bands twhich extend over theintervals between adjacent sections"ofi-the-l blank are' bent over the corner edges: ofgthe side material,as shown in Figure 5, and lthat portion of the metalfbandwhichextends beyond the edge of section D of the box blank is bent and inserted between the side material and the exterior cleat of section A. The metal bands thus positioned and incorporated in the box structure,
band extending over an interval between adjacent cleat ends and having each of its ends l located between the side material and a cleat of a section.
2. A oldable box blank comprising a plurality of separate sections of side material and exterior cleats connected together in foldable relationship by flexible binders, with thek exterior cleats located between the side material and a'flexible binder, and a flexible' band extending over an interval between ad'- jacent exterior cleat ends and located between i.'
the side material and the exterior cleats.
3. A box or crate comprising a plurality of separate sections of side material each provided with a reenforcing cleat, an encircling binder secured to said sections, and aexible band bent over a corner of the lbox or crate in line with the cleats and located between the side material and the cleats.
4. A box or crate comprising a plurality of separate sections of side material each pro-y vided with an exterior cleat, an encircling binder overlying the exterior cleats and secured to said cleats and the sections of side material, and a iexible band bent over a corner of the box or crate vin line with the cleats and binder and located between the side material and the cleats. 1 f
5. A box or crate comprising a plurality of separate sections of side lmaterial connected together by encircling binders secured thereto, each said sectionA being provided with anV interior cleat at one end Vand an exterior cleat at the other end, and a liexible band bent over each'corner of the-box in line with the exterior cleats and located between the sidev material vand. the exterior cleats. A
' 6. A oldable box blank comprising a plurality of separate sections of side material and exterior Vcleats connected together in foldable relationship by flexible binders, withv the exterior cleats located between the side material and a flexible binder, and a metal band extending over an interval between adjacent sections of the side rmaterial in line with the cleats and located between the side material and the exterior cleats.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my vname to this specication this'llth day of May,1929.
