PACKING STAND Filed Jan. 27, 1930 Patented Feb. 27, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT GFFICE PACKING STAND Application January 27,1930. seria1N0.4za,5ss
4 claims. (o1. 22e- 129) The present invention relates to a packing stand and has particular reference to a stand for holding a shipping case in position while the same is being filled.
5 The principal object of the present invention is the provision of a packing stand embodying a shipping case holder adapted to hold a shipping case in position for filling and to move the case after filling into a position for discharge.
An important object of the present invention is the provision of a packing stand embodying a movable part hinged to a fixed part, the movable part being adapted to hold a shipping container in a fillingV position during which time the case may be filled and being movable on its hinges to a discharge position during which time the case may be removed from the packing stand.
An important object of the invention is the provision of a packing stand for holding an empty shipping case in position for filling after which the filled case may be closed while still held, following which the lled and closed case is held in a different position for discharge.
Numerous other objects of the invention will be apparent as it is better understood from the following description, which, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, discloses a preferred embodiment thereof.
Referring to the drawing:-
Figure 1 is a perspective View of apacking stand viewed from the front and one side illustrating the stand in position for filling, a shipping case positioned in the stand and articles placed in the case being indicated by broken lines.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view, viewed from the rear and the other side, of the packing stand, showing the stand in position for discharge of the lled and closed shipping case which is partially outlined by broken lines.
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary detail taken substantially along the line3-3 in Fig. 2.
The packing stand of the present invention comprises a stationary base preferably formed of angle irons, being provided with vertical front members 21 and vertical rear members 22 connected near their bottom ends by horizontal angle irons 23. Two vertical posts 24 are connected with the two side angle irons 23 and are positioned intermediately between and are spaced from the members 21 and 22. These posts are connected with horizontal members 25 secured to the top ends of the members 22,
this construction forming a horizontal supporting surface.
The posts 24 are also connected with inclined side members 26 secured to the top ends of the members 21 and a front top cross member 20 connects the top of the members 26 and these parts form an inclined supporting surface which like the horizontal supporting 'surface is used for locating certain movable parts nowv to be described.
A shipping case holder is mounted upon the base and comprises a front wall 27, a side wall 28, a bottom wall 29 and a wall 31 extending parallel to the side Wall 28 and connected with the walls 27 and 29. The walls 28 and 31 are provided with corner straps 32 secured thereto and these straps are hingedly connected with atie rod 33 extending through the upper ends of the posts 24 and securely held in position by lock nuts 34 threadedV thereon and engaging the outer surfaces of the posts.
The rod 33 forms a pivot to which the case holder is hinged and about which it moves. This case holder is adapted to rest in one of two positions, the first position being a filling position illustrated in Fig. 1 which is assumed when the front wall 27 rests upon the supporting surface formed by the members 2O and 26. In this position, the holder is inclined to the horizontal and is in position to receive a shipping case roughly indicated in the drawing by broken lines 35.
The shipping case may comprise any suitable form of holder into which articles are to be packed. One form of oase which is readily adapted to use in the packing stand of the present invention and which is herein selected for illustrative purposes comprises a paper or nbre bag or box having an open top adapted to be closed by aps 36. Such a case in the packing operation is filled with suitable articles, indicated by broken lines 37. Fig. 1 illustrates the packing of circular cans within the paper wie shipping case.
When the packing case 35 is placed in the holder, it rests between the Wall 28 and a movable and adjustable wall 38 arranged parallel to and intermediate the walls 28 and 31.
This movable wall 38 carries an angle iron 39 forming an edge flange for the plate where it engages the front wall 27. Bolts 41 carried in the angle iron 39 extend through horizontal slots 42 formed in the Wall 27 and also through aligned slots 43 formed in straps 44 secured to the outside of the Wall 27. Lock nuts 45 are 1`1`0 threadedly secured to the bolts 41 and engage the outer surface of the straps 44 and securely clamp the wall 38 in adjusted. position. Since the case holder is open at its top and rear ends, adjustment of the wall 38 readily adapts it to a shipping case of any size within its limits.
With the front wall 27 of the case holder resting upon the inclined supporting surface of the members 26, this being the filling position, the open end of the case 35 is in a convenient position at the front of the packing stand and within easy reach of a packing operator. The articles 37 are then placed in orderly arrangement Within the packing case with a minimum effort on the part of the operator. After the case has been filled, its top naps 36 may be bent down into closed position and may be secured in position by gluing or otherwise if desired.
After filling and closing of the case its holder is pivoted on the hinge rod 33, the front wall 27 being moved away from the supporting members 26. At the end of the hinging action the case holder assumes its second or discharge position wherein the bottom wall 29 engages the supporting surface formed by the horizontal members 25, this position being illustrated in Fig. 2.
The wall 27 is cut away at its upper end to provide the opening 46 and the wall 29 is cut away in a similar manner by the opening 47. These two openings permit insertion of the operators hands with the lled and closed case 35 when the operator removes the case from the stand.
In the most economical operation of the packing stand, it has been found advisable to have an operator do the filling of the shipping case while a second operator moves the holder into discharge position and remove the filled case therefrom. Such a packing stand as has been described is adaptable to various factory conditions and the use of a number of such stands arranged side by side permits rapid packing of individual shipping cases, the operator who removes the filled cases being able to effect the discharge of shipping cases from a number of packing stands.
It is thought that the invention and many of its attendant advantages will be understood from the foregoing description, and it will be apparent that various changes may be made in the form, construction and arrangement of the parts Without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention or sacrificing all of its material advantages, the form hereinbefore described being merely a preferred embodiment thereof.
