removing some of the staves, which necessi tates considerable trouble and expense to restore the package toproper condition.
The object of my invention is to construct a hogshead of ply-wood adapted to be readily opened and having one-piece heads which may be readily removed without doing any material damage to either the 6 head or the body of the container, whereby the parts of the container maybe separated after use and nested in knock-down form for storage, or to be returned to the shipper for re-use.
Another object is to provide means for quickly and securely holding the heads in lace. p Referring to the accompanying drawing, which is made a part hereof and on which similar reference'characters indicate similar parts, a I
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a container showing one form of my invention,
Figure 2, a section on line 2-2 of Figure 1, Figures 3 and 4, modified forms of securing the head in place, and t Figure 5, a plan view of a further modification. 7
The container is constructed of a pair of panels 10 and 11 of plywood bent into semicylindrical form and reinforced along their upper and lower edges with a strip of plywood 12 which is secured to the outside only. A thin metal band 13 the same width as the strip 12 encircles the strip 12 and the edges of the panels and is riveted thereto. Longitudinal slots 14 are cut through the metal band and the ply-wood members at spaced intervals. V
In assembling the container, the panels 10 and llare bent around the heads and placed U together with their meeting edges overlap pingto form acylinder andvare secured together .by aseries of wire hoops 15 spaced at intervals throughout its length. .The heads, which are identical, comprise avdisk of plywood 16 adapted to. fit snugly within the panels 10 and 11. -This disk 16 has secured thereto on one sidea circular concentricwire band '17 held stationary-by staples 18 ,The disk heads 16 are securedwithin'the panels 10 and 11 bymean's ,ofas'eries of-fl at metalclips 19 each bentiupon itself'at one end-as at 20 to form a-hook whichis' engaged around the wire'band 17. Each clipfis then passed through a correspondingslotl, pulledtightly then bent upiand around the endofithe panel and strip 12 as at .21. ,,The pressure exerted against theheadlfi causes'the edge 22 to bearagainstthe underside of the clip 19 at the'point '23 which in turn bears against the inner edge of the slotl l; This systemof securing the head within the container assures an even pressure on the head and'pre ventsspreading of theside' panelsby means of the bindingactionof the bent portion 21 of the clip 19. When itiisdesired to inspect the contents ofthe container the bands'1'5 are cut orloosn eda'nd two or three ofthe clips 7 19. are removedfrom the top and bottom which .will permit the end; ofone panel to spring open on one side as shown by the dotted line position in Figure 1,e xposing .thevcontents without any material damagev to. the container.- Theremaining clips 19 are su'fficientlystron'g to retainthe container in its proper form during the inspection. I
Figure 3 illustrates a form of the invention in whichthe clips are omitted and a wire24 is woven through the slots 14 and around-the .85
wire band 17m the head 16. This wire 24: is pulled tightly and performs the same function as theclips; i E v .Figure shows a form in which the head :1 6 1s a'plain disk which is mounted in place 9.0
and secured therein by arcuate blocks 25 having diagonal slots 26 cut in its concave surface to retain a wire 27 which is woven alternately through the slots 14 and rests in said slots and which confines the blocks 25 against the inner surface of the .side panels to form a stop for the head 16.
In the form shown in Figure 5 the disk head 28 is formed around its periphery with a series of longitudinal projections 29. which are adapted toenter corresponding slots 30 in the panels 10 and 11 and be retained therein by means of the usual wire band that encircles the container.

These several forms of head retaining means are'shown as modifications-of each other. as a tobacco hogshead it will of cours'e'be understood that the construction may be utilized for any other purpose, as for nail kegs or where other heavy materals are to be packed. i
It will be obvious to those. skilled in the for retaining said head in said panels and further bent upwards and over said panels serving to rte-enforce the ends thereof, substantially as set forth.
