a 'corporation of Nev/Yaris e n l e Y Arpncaaon Jmyeo, 1932. senat Noqeeaetsj comme."(crece-eee) '.The invention relates to nevv-` and `useful ini--A proveniente in a crate for can ends, and more particularly to a crate withinrwhich vunit packages sembledand readyto receive the packagesof can ends;`
Fig, v2 is a Vview similar to Fig. 1, showingthe crate partly filled with unit packages oi can ends:- Fig. 3 is a view showing the crate ascompletely lled and closed ready for shipment;
' Fig. 4 is a vertical sectional view through a por-, tion of the crate withv the can bodies packed therein;
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of a unit vpackage"of can ends, V Fig..6 is a view .in section throughthe package and partlyin section through the enda'and Fig. 7 is an enlarged detailshowing the manner of detachably connecting the angle bars. 4 The invention has to do with a crate for packagingV can ends. vThe .can ends` are grouped andl then wrapped in unit packages, each package having a predetermined number oi can ends. The can ends are grouped or brought together for a unit package and are then wrapped in paper, the ends of which packages are sealed so that the unit packages may be handled and storedfor shipment. The crate is of the knock-down type and is preferably made of angle bars. The angle bars are secured together by bolts so `as to provide supporting base members which are spaced froln each other the length ofa unit package. The angle bars face each other, so that the packages may be laid and supported on the horizontal members of the angle bars, and the vertical members Will retain the unit packages resting thereon from endwise movement. These base members are preferably secured to blocks of wood which raise the base members from the oor and form a skidI under which the arms of a truck may be slid for the lifting and moving of the crate or" ends. The side members are similarly placed so as to support the packages when placed one on another, and the angle bars also prevent the packages from endwisemcve'ment. `The same is true of the tcp:
angle` bars.` The anglebars, when joined', form two rectangular frame members, and `these are connectedby theskid blocks and by cross braces.V
After the unit packages have beenplaced in the crate, theyarefcovered byfpaper, and are bound together. by the hailing band which encircles the unit packages only.` y i l Referringmorein detailto the drawings, the
can ends indicated atC are brought together in a predetermined number to form a unit package 1'andfthena wrapper l2 is placed aroundthe groupedy ends and the` ends 3; thereof foldedf. down 'against the ends of the package and se` cured by` sealing strips v4. 'This produces a unit package which may be readilyhandled and` which willretain the ends intheir grouped unitsU during shipment.
The crate, for` the unit packages is made of angle rbars which .aresirnilar in ,shape and dimensions.` The angle bars `5 and 6 are placed facing-each other and are secured to blocks,` vpijefeiably 'of wood,A indicated at 7 in the draw-- ings. These] angle bars are secured to the Wood vby. screws so that theyfcan Vbe readily detaclfred therefrom. .Thefblocks of woodare dimensioned so as to form with the angle bars a base member or skid on lwhich the unit packages are'4 stacked. This .raises the anglebars so that `the arms of atransfer truck may be slid beneath the, Yangle bars and the crate raisedffor transportation. The angle bar 6 `when,attached.to the skid blocksuprovides al horizontal supporting plate or member 6a and a vertically extending plate V6b. The angle bar 5 provides a vertical plate 5b and also a horizontal plate 5e. Attached to the angle bars 5 and 6, respectively, are side angle bars 7e and 8. The angle bars are secured together by bolts 9, 9 which can be readily removed for detaching the angle bars from each other. The
angle bar 8 is so placedthat the side plate 8a thereof forms an end wall for retaining the unit packages against lateral movement in the crate.
It also provides a side wall 8b which prevents the unit packages from endwise movement in .the crate. The angle bar '7a operates in precisely the same manner. At the other sideof the crate are side angle bars 10 and 1l Whiehare similarly arranged and operate in asimilar manner to prevent lateral movement of the` unit packages, and' also endwise movement of the packages contacting therewith. These angle .bars 10 and 11 are connected by bolts 9, 9 to the angle bars 5 and 6, respectively.
Connecting the angle bars 'la and 8 'is a cross H0 returned to the manufacturer, so that theymayY bar 12 which is secured thereto'by bolts. Also connecting the side angle bars 10 and 11 is a cross brace 13. Attached to the upper ends of the angle bars ' 7e and 10 is a top angle bar 14. Attached to the upper ends of the angle bars 8 and 11 is a top angle bar 15. These angle bars are secured to the end angle bars by bolts 9, 9. The top-angle bars are arranged so that one face plate thereofV overlies the unit packages at the upper side thereof, and the other face plate extends down over the end of the top unit packages and prevents endwise movement thereof. The unit packages l are placed within the crate as shown in Fig. 2.`
The ends of the unitrpackages lie substantially ina plane just inside the side plates of the bottom, end and top angle bars. The packages rest on the angle plates 5a and 6e. They are retained from lateral movement by the angle plates arranged similar to the angleplates 8a, and they are'prevented from endwise movement where they contact Ywith the angle bars by the side plates similar to the plates 8F. A strip of corrugated pasteboard or other exible material, indicated at 16 in`Figures 2 and 3, is placed around the unit packages, rand encircling the unit packages and this strip of paper, Vis a bailing band 17. The
wrappers, insures that theunit packages when placed will not slip endwise in the crate. The
s idefaces of the crate are closed by sheets of corrugated board or other flexible covering material indicated at ,18.4 This completes the package of can ends, and the crated can ends are ready `for shipment. When the crate of can ends reaches its destination, and the ends have been removed therefrom,` the bolts and screws may be Aremmred and the angle bars thus knocked down and readily packed in a small compass and be again assembled and a crate formed for a new shipment ofcan ends.
It will be noted from the above that the angle bars not only confine the can ends.' but will protect the same during shipment. These angles bars are all of the same length, and each angle bar has openings formed therein lfor the boltsuor screws Whichsecure the same to the skids, and
also for the cross braces. The angle bars are all of the same length, and the bolt-holes are so disposed that they are interchangeable. When the crate is knocked down and it is desirable to assemble the same, any angle bar that is picked up may be attached to the skid, andthe same is true of the other angle bars, so that it is not necessary to select an angle bar for any particular place. This enables the parts to be quickly assembled inthe forming of the crate. It is obvious that minor changes in the details of construction and the arrangement of the parts may be made Without departing from the spirit of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is V l. A crate for can ends comprising angle bars, bolts detachably securing said angle bars to form side frame members, skid blocks detachably connecting and supporting said side frame members, cross braces detachably connecting sai-d side frame members, unit Wrapped packages of can ends supported by said angle bars, said side frame members being spacedso as to receive said unit packages, one face of each angle bar serving to support and retain said unit packages from lateral movement, and the other face of each angle bar serving to retain said unit packages from end- Wise movement, a protecting Wrapper encircling the unit packages between the side members, a hailing band surrounding said unit packages and.v wrapping paper for binding together the unit packages'and a protecting flexible sheet for closingthe side openingsvof the crate.
2. A crate for can ends kcomprising angle bars, skid blocks detachably connecting said anglebars for forming a base member, angle bars detachably connected to each end of each angle bar of the base member and forming side members, angle bars detachably connected to the angle bars of the side members and'r forming top membersa brace detachably connected to the angle bars of the side members adjacent the upper ends thereo funit wrapped packages of can ends supported by said angle bars, each of said angle bars being positionedso that one rface of the angle bar serves to support and retain the unit packages from lateral movement, and the other face lof each'angle bar serves to retain the unit-packages from endwise movement, and a bailing'band encircling the unit packages between the angle bars for tying thesame together. k
