Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a wardrobe box, specially designed to contain and transport clothes hung from hangers.
  • the wardrobe boxes are used to contain and transport clothes hung from hungers.
  • the wardrobe boxes comprise a transversal bar, from which the hangers hung. This transversal bar is usually engaged on the upper edge of the wardrobe box.
  • the wardrobe box comprises an upper lid.
  • the upper lid must be closed by a closing element, e.g. adhesive tape.
  • the known wardrobe boxes comprise a door at one of its side walls.
  • the wardrobe box comprises handle-like holes in two opposed side walls of the wardrobe box.
  • the known wardrobe boxes have several drawbacks. Firstly, to close the door of the wardrobe box it is necessary to place the closing element on the lid, because if it is not closed, the lid can be opened. The placement of the closing element each time the lid is closed is uncomfortable, and when the closing element is removed the lid can be damaged, so that the wardrobe box cannot be used several times.
  • the wardrobe box of the present invention comprises a lid, a bottom and side walls, and it is characterised in that said lid comprises two hinged sectors engageable to each other.
  • said sectors of the lid comprise complementary flaps engageable to each other.
  • the door of the wardrobe box of the present invention comprises a detachable closure, that according to a preferred embodiment, is made from Velcro®, i.e. is formed by the bands engageable to each other, one provided with a plurality of hooks and the other one provided with a velvet material, one of the bands being placed on said door and the other one on the adjacent side wall against which the door closes.
  • Velcro® i.e. is formed by the bands engageable to each other, one provided with a plurality of hooks and the other one provided with a velvet material, one of the bands being placed on said door and the other one on the adjacent side wall against which the door closes.
  • the bottom of the wardrobe box of the present invention comprises formed flaps engageable to each other.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the wardrobe box of the present invention with its lid and its door opened;
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the wardrobe box of the present invention closed.
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the wardrobe box of the present invention with its lid and its bottom opened.
  • the wardrobe box of the present invention comprises a lid 1 , a bottom 2 and four side walls 3 , one of said side walls 3 being provided with a door 4 .
  • the lid 1 comprises two hinged sectors 5 , 6 engageable to each other by flaps 5 a, 6 a provided in said sectors.
  • hinged sectors 5 , 6 permit to close the lid 1 with no external closing element, such as e.g. adhesive tape.
  • the lid 1 can also comprise a pair of additional flaps 9 to reinforce it, that are folded below said hinged sectors 5 , 6 .
  • the lid 1 comprises adhesives 5 b, 6 b to keep said hinged sectors 5 , 6 joined to each other.
  • said adhesives 5 b, 6 b are double-sided adhesives tapes.
  • the door 4 is also closed, which means that the door 4 can be closed also with no external closing element.
  • the door 4 also comprises a detachable closing element 7 , made up from two complementary bands of Velcro® or adhesive, one placed in the door 4 and the other one placed on the adjacent side wall 3 .
  • This detachable Velcro® closing element or adhesive permits to open and close the door 4 any times not damaging the wardrobe box of the present invention.
  • Two opposed side walls 3 comprise holes 8 provided to house the ends of a transversal bar (not shown) to hang the hangers for cloths that will be placed inside the wardrobe box of the present invention.
  • This transversal bar is the same that is disclosed in the Spanish utility model U9500827, which is included here as reference, whose inventor is the same than the inventor of this application.
  • this transversal bar permits to provide handles at their ends, and it permits at the same time to close completely the wardrobe box, preventing the entrance of dust.
  • the bottom 2 of the wardrobe box of the present invention is made up from flaps 2 a engageable to each other, as it can be seen from FIG. 3 .
  • Said bottom 2 also comprises adhesives 2 b, 2 c that join the flaps 2 a to each other.
  • said adhesives 2 b, 2 c are double-sided tapes.
