G. E.- HERNIS CIGAR CONTAINER Filed Jan. 18, 1930 gwuentoz (ZZZ/fer)? i s abromeq Patented May 17, 1932 warren stares GUY ELMO HERNIS, on srnvnnsrom'r, isconsin CIGAR CONTAINER Application filed January 18, 1930. Seria1 No.-421,7f74.
The present invention relates to cigar containers and more particularly to containers adapted for use in shipping or mailing cigars.
An object of this invention is to provide a simple and comparatively light container which will firmly hold a cigar so that the cigar will not be broken or injured during shipment of the cigar.
Another object of this invention is to provide a container which is rigid and will withstand the rough usage afforded during mailing or shipping of the individual cigar.-
A further object of this invention is to provide a device of this character wherein the mailing tag or the like may be secured and firmly held by the container so that no other wrapping is necessary.
A still further object of this invention is to provide a device of this character which is so constructed that the cigar will not dry out during shipment. V
The above and various other objects and advantages of this invention will in part be described in and in part be understood from the following detailed description of the present preferred embodiment, the same being illustrated in the accompanying drawings wherein Figure 1 is a detailed side elevation constructed according to the preferred embodiment of this invention; and
Figure 2 is a longitudinal section taken through the device showing in detail a cigar mounted therein.
Referring to the drawings, the numeral 10 designates an elongated casing which is closed at one end and provided at the opposite end with a threaded portion 11. The container 10 may be constructed of any suit- 4 able material and preferably of metal which is relatively light and which substantially conforms to the configuration of a cigar. The closed end of the container 10 is preferably restricted or tapered as at 12 so that it will serve as a centering means which may engage one pointed end of the cigar so as to center the cigar within the container and prevent relative lateral movement thereof.
A cap member 13 which is provided with a threaded inner portion 14 is adapted to be threadably engaged on the threaded inner portion 11 of the casing'10.. The cap member 13 is of substantialy similar construction to the casing 10, the outer end thereof being restricted or tapered as at 15 so as to engage one end of the cigarfor holding the cigar within the container inspaced relation to the inner walls thereof. The cap member 13 is provided spaced outwardly from the inner end portion thereof with an annular ring or supporting member 16, the aperture in the ring being of suflicient size so as to loosely receive a cigar therethrough.
The ring member 16 coacts with the tapering ends 12 and 15 so as to maintain the cigar in spaced relation to the inner walls of the casing and thereby prevent injury to the cigar. The inner end 17 of the casing 10 is preferably turned over so as to provide an inwardlyextending ring member which is adapted to seat against the outer face portion of the ring member 16 when the cap 18 has been threaded onto the casing 10.
The threaded portions 11 and 14 of the casing preferably loosely engage one upon the other and are adapted to receive therebetween a linen shipping tag or the like 18 which is adapt-ed to have suitable indicia placed thereon to designate the shipper and the addressee so that in the shipment of the casing no wrapping about the casing is necessary, and when the threaded portions 11 and 14 have been properly tightened the shipping tag 18 will be firmly held therebetween.
If desired, the casing 10 and the cap member 13 may be constructed in annular cross section form or in any other desired shape or configuration depending upon the character of the cigar which it is desired to ship.
In the use of this device a cigar maybe inserted in the elongated casing 10 .so that one end thereof will engage the tapering end portion 12 and properly center the cigar within the container. The cap memberlS may then be threaded onto the casing 10 and the shipping tag 18 threaded coactively with the cap member 13 so that the shipping tag 18 will be firmly held between the threaded portions of the container. When the address of the addressee has been inserted on the shipping tag the container is ready for shipment and will require no other wrapping.
It will, of course, be understood that various changes and modifications may be made in the details of construction and design of the above specifically described embodiment of the invention without departin from the spirit thereof, such changes an modifications being restricted only by the scope of the following claim.
What is claimed is:
A shipping container for cigars or similar articles comprising a receptacle including two separable members joined together by threads, the male threads having an inturned flange designed for rigid abutment against a corresponding inturned flange on the female member whereby to rigidly hold the two members against bending movement'and thereby prevent injury to the cigar or similar article within the container.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aflix my signature.
