Application February 14, 1931. Serial No. 515,804
v 6 Claims.
This invention relates to containers for frozen confections, ice cream, ices, candies, and other food products, and refers more particularly to a container formed by winding overlapping layers of paper or other fibrous material in spiral ertension to form a cylindrical shape, the layers being secured together by means of a vegetable glue or paste or any suitable adhesive substance.
|The object or' this invention is the provision of a container from which the contents may be dispensed by tearing the spiraly wound container against the direction oi the winding, the under layer or strip, of fibrous terlal, when pulled, cutting or pulling ou the top, or outer layer of material to expose the contents to the extent ciesired.
lThe advantage of this invention is that the container is removed iroin the produce in fractional parts as may be desired, thus facilitating the eatingr ci the contents Without touching the saine with the hands.
The container, while shown in the drawing in cylindrical shape, may be cone-shaped, or the irusturn oi a Ycone, or rectangular in shape, the ends being sealed in the manner specined herematter.
"in the drawing annexed hereto, with Tcinch the following description is marie,
Figure l is a longitudinal sectional view or a cylindrical container.
Flaine 2 a side elevation.
Figure 3 is a side elevation, shoe portions cgi the plies unrrounrl, to disclose the construe 'ion Figure o is a plan vieu ot the upper disc clo-a sure member,
rieure 5 is a cross-section or the member.
Described generally, the present invention re= sigles in the novel construction oi a container'or wrapper, such as' may be employed for the pack- `aging or frozen coniections or other materials, which is of such character that it maybe removed irectionally, to accomplish the progressive shortening oi the container to facilitate the dispensina7 or removal or portions of its contents, while the remainder of the container continues to serve as a holder for the material. The vcontainer includesa tubular body member formed of a plurality of plies of thin flexible material, such as paper, one of the plies being formed of a comparatively narrow strip which is wound helically in a tubular shape with the juxtaposed margins of adjacent turns readily separable from each other in the unwinding or the strip, and another ply being formed off a strip which is adhesively secured to vthe jointure lines of its (CL 22S- 4.5)
one of the surfaces of the first mentioned strip in such fashion as to hold the turns of the latter in proper relationship and to overlap or bridge turns, to form a continuous imperorate tube. The first mentioned strip e@ is stronger or tougher than the sealing strip, so'
that it will serve, in the process of unvvincling it,
as a tearing or cutting element eiiective to separate the other strip progressively along the helical jointure line of the turns of the iirst men- @5 tioneu strip. rlhus the tube may be progressively shortened to expose and accommodate piecemeal removal ofthe contents. Ilhe tube is provided with appropriate end closures to form a complete container.
Continuing the description, in Figures l and 2, the inner layer 2 of Ifibrous material, in this case a dry, waited paper is shown, the edge thereon? being indicated 2o, in a helical winding. in pracu tice, we have 'iouncl it of advantage to maire this (55 inner layer of heavier or stronger material than the outer layer. The outer or upper layer l is wound with edges lo-lc thereof overlapping the edges 2er-2a of the strip 2, and is adhesively se cured to the entire outer surface oi the inner layer, to iorrn a continuous imperiorate tube.
lt will be observed that this manner oi forina container or the above character not only eects the uniting of the spirally wound strips to produce a composite and reiniorced. support @5 ine wall structure but bridges the principal line ol jointure in such a manner that when iorce is applied to the under stripin unwindine direc tion it serves to cut or sever the bridging strip along said. line of jointure to present a substan- M, tlally smooth severed surface. Such unvvindine I naar be eected fractionally or continuously throughout the length of the container to olispense the contents as desired. .and in this connection it will also be noted that the number 35 ot strips may be varied according to the particular operating requirements without departing from-the scope or spirit of the invention.
'The bottoni or" the cylinder so formed is sealed by a disc li oi the same material, of larger di- 100 ameterthan the tube and which is forced up into the tube far enough to allow the extension oi the tube below it to form a grip or handle for the person utilizing the container until the con-v tents thereo are entirely consumed; It is un- 105 clerstood that this closure member 4 is not limited to a disc as shown in the drawing, but may be an inverted cup, a cap iittlng over the outside of said tube, or 'other closure means as may be desired. l l0 siiy 'sii
.not wish to limit ourselves to this 'use a simple slit, or cut, through the wall of the container, as the means of anording such start-s ing point for the unwrapping process, we do not desire to limit ourselves to this particular feature.
The top of the cylinder is sealed with a disc 3 (see Figures 4 and 5) forced down upon the contents. iie we prefer to use a iiat disc for the top closure member, we do not desire to it ourselves to this particular means of effecting' said closure. y
While we prefer to use waxed paper as the material out of which. said container is made, we do particular material.
i; A container for accomodating piecemeal ee of its contents, comprising an inner p of sheet material wound heiically with marof juxtaposed turns readily separable from h other in the unwinding of the strip, and an outer strip of sheet material wound helically upon the inner strip with its turns in overlapping relationship to the margins of those of the inner strip, the overlapping portions of said strips being adhesively connected to form a tube, both strips being of thin and readily flexible material, the inner strip being stronger than the outer` strip and the latter being. of a character facilitating its being torn progressively along the r of the inner strip by the unwinding of the latter.
2. A 'container as specified in claim 1 and wherein both stripsare of paper and theinner strip is of water-repellent character.
3. A container comprising a tubular body portion formed of an inner strip of sheet material wound helically in tubular form with the margins of juxtaposed turns readily separable from one another to permit its being unwound progressively, and an outer strip of sheet material wound helically upon and approximately parallel with the inner strip and adhesiveiy secured upon the outer surface thereof in overlapping relationship to the margins thereof to form a continuous tube, both strips being of readily exible material and the outer -strip being more readily torn than the inner strip, whereby to accommodate progressive tearing of the outer strip along the margin of the inner strip by the unwinding of the latter.
li. A container as specified in claim l and wherein a terminal portion of the inner strip is accessible for engagement from outside the container to enect its unwinding.
5. A container having a body portion formed of a helically wound inner strip of readily nexible sheet material and a helically wound outer strip of readily flexible sheet material adhesively secured upon the inner strip in overlapping relationship to the margins thereof, said connected strips forming a tube, one of said strips being stronger than the other and having the margins of its juxtaposed turns readily separabie from one another to permit its being unwound progressively, the other strip being of a character facilitating its being torn progressively along the margin of the stronger strip by the unwind-l ing of the latter, whereby the tube may be pro gressively reduced in length.
6. A container having a two-ply body portion, one of the plies being formed of a strip of nenible sheet material helically wound with the margins of juxtaposed turns close to and readily separable from one another to permit its being unwound progressively and the other ply being formed of a strip of exible sheet material applied to the surface of the first mentioned strip and overlapping the margins thereof and adhesively secured to the surface of said nrst mentioned strip to hold the turns thereof in alignment and form acontinuous tube, the rst mentioned strip being stronger than the second men tioned strip d the latter being of a character facilitating its being torn progressively along ir margin of the stronger strip by the unwinding of the same, whereby the tube may be progressively reduced in length.
