Earle H. Benson, PulaskLNuY. ApplicationFebruary. 9, 1933, Serial No. 655,939
2 Claims. (Cl. 20658) This invention relates to improvements in a dispensing container adapted to completely enclose a roll of coiled paper, said container being provided with a passage through which the paper 1 m may be drawn outwardly to a desired length and then severed. from the remainder of the roll by drawing the paper over a cutting edgeprovided on the containenadjacent the passage. t
,It often happens in dispensing coiled paper from, containers of the above-mentioned class when thecontainers are constructed in a conventional manner that the freeedge' of the roll of paper often becomes withdrawn from the outer edgelof the passageinrthe container through 115 which the paper. passes, .to suchan extent that it is inconvenient and often. difficult, to obtain a sufficient hold on the paper .toreadilydraw the same from the container. H
The main object of this invention is to pro l 3,20 vide a dispensing container for a roll of coiled paper or the like which, by virtue of its construction, will enable the ready dispensing of the material within the container at all times. In accomplishing the above object, I have provided the 5 wall of the container adjacent the passage through which the paper travels in passing outwardly from the interior of the container, with a pair of longitudinally. spaced'apertures through which the paper appears and may be engaged for moving 5, the paper outwardly through the passage.
I also provide the container with a guide member over which the paper travels in entering the outlet passage and which is tensioned to frictionally engage the paper for preventing the withc335 drawal of the paper from beneath the apertures.
Other objects and advantages relate to the details of the container structure, all as will more fully appear from the following description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing,
1240 in which:-
:; line 2--2, Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a detail sectional view taken on line 3-3, Figure 4. Figure 4 is a longitudinal sectional view of the container taken in the plane of the line 44,
: Figure 2.
Figure 5 is a plan view of the blank from which the container is formed.
The container comprising this invention, as illustrated in the drawing, is of elongated rec- .255 tangular form and substantially square in transverse section. The container is preferably formed from a one-piece blank composed of relatively heavy paper or thin cardboard or the like and of the shape illustrated in Figure 5.
This blank is substantially rectangular in plan 160 view and is scored or creased longitudinally as at A, B, C and D to form a bottom wall 1, a
In folding the blank to form the container, the auxiliary side wall 5 is folded so as to underlie the top wall 4, as best illustrated in Figure 2, while one end of the container is closed by folding the flaps 6, 8, 10 and 12 in overlapping relation, with the flap 10 positioned at the outside of the remaining flaps and the tab 14 extended inwardly between the adjacent edges of the flaps 6, 8 and 12 and the bottom wall 1, while the other end of the container is closed by similarly folding the tabs 7, 9, 11 and 13 in overlapping relation with the flap 11 positioned at the outside of the remaining flaps and the tab 15 extending inwardly between the adjacent edges of the flaps 7, 9 and 13 and the bottom wall 1, as illustrated more clearly in Figure 4.
It will thus be seen that the blank, when in the folded position, forms a container which is adapted to completely enclose a roll as R of wax paper, while a passageway 16 is provided between the auxiliary side wall 5 and the top wall 4 through which the paper may pass to the outside of the container when being withdrawn from the roll.
The essential feature of this invention resides in-providing the top wall 4 with a pair of apertures as 1'? which are arranged in longitudinal spaced relation, one adjacent either end of the wall 4 so as to be in communication with respective sides of the passage 16. These apertures 17 are of sufiicient size to permit the paper positioned in the passageway 16 beneath said openings to be readily seen from the outside of the package for the purpose of enabling a prospective purchaser to observe the type of paper contained in the container, and at the same time, provides ready access to the paper whereby said paper may be frictionally engaged by the fingers of the user for moving the paper outwardly through the passage 16 to a position where the outer edge portion of the paper may be grasped for withdrawing the paper from the container to obtain the desired amount. When the desired length of paper is obtained, it may be severed from the remainder of the roll" by drawing the paper across the outer edge 4' of the top wall 4 in the usual manner.
In order that the paper contained in the passage 16 may not be accidentally withdrawn from beneath the apertures 17 to such an extent that the paper may not be engaged when it is again desired to obtain a supply of the paper, I have provided a longitudinally extending flap 18 which is formed by scoring or creasing the auxiliary side wall 5 as at E a relatively short distance from the outer longitudinal edge thereof. This fiap 18 is bent inwardly from the plane of the wall 5 and has the outer or free edge thereof terminating in close relation to the adjacent portion of the rear wall 3, as illustrated more clearly in Figure 2, and is tensioned upwardly to form a brake member so that the paper in passing over the tab, is guided into the passage 16 and when the outward movement of the paper is discontinued, the tab 18 tends to move upwardly and thereby frictionally clamp the paper between the outer edge of said tab and the wall 3 and prevent said paper from being accidentally moved inwardly by the uncoiling of the roll within the container or for any other reason, such as the changing of the position of the roll within the container when said roll becomes reduced in diameter.
Although I have shown and described a spe-' cific form of container, I do not wish to be limited to the exact details of construction shown, as various changes in the form of the carton or the arrangement of the apertures 17 or that of the brake member 18 may readily be made, without departing from the spirit of this invention as set forth in the appended claims.
I claim:
1. A container of the class described made from a single blank scored and folded to form a bottom wall, a top wall, side walls and an auxiliary wall underlying the top wall and forming a passageway from the interior of the container to the exterior thereof through which paper within the container may be drawn, said auxiliary wall having a tab formed on the longitudinal edge thereof at the inner end of the passageway to provide a guide for the paper entering said passage-way, said tab being tensioned outwardly toward the passage-way and having its free edge normally terminating in close proximity to the inner surface of the side wall whereby said tab will flex inwardly and permit free movement of the paper through the passageway during the withdrawal of the paper and automatically move outwardly to cooperate with said side wall as the paper is released at the end of the withdrawal thereof for frictionally maintaining the paper against further movement through the passage-way to thereby prevent the paper being accidentally withdrawn therefrom.
2. A device as defined in claim 1 in which the top Wall is provided with an aperture in communication with said passageway through which the paper may be engaged for moving said paper outwardly against the action of said tab.
