1 Claim.
This invention relates to a certain new and useful improvement in can packages and packaging, and, has particular reference to means for holding filled paper cans, having flanged metal closures, in position for shipment in cartons, and, for display in stores after removal from the cartons.
An object of the invention is to provide means in the general form of a card with flexible can grippers, or tabs, arranged in vertical pairs, whereby the top and bottom metal closures of paper cans may be gripped and held for supporting the cans in position on the card for shipment and for display.
0 5 A further object of the invention is the provision of a shipping and display card, which possesses advantages in points of simplicity and efficiency, and, at the same time proves itself comparatively inexpensive in cost of manufacture.
With the above and other objects in view, the
invention consists in the novel features of construction, adaptation and combination of parts hereinafter more fully described and finally pointed out in the claim hereto-appended.
5 Referring to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, wherein like characters of reference denote similar parts throughout the several views:
Fig. 1 is a front elevation of a can package embodying the features of my invention, there being one can only of the invention shown as attached to the shipping and display card.
Fig. 2 is a view partly in front elevation and partly in section of a can attached to the shipping and display card and showing the free ends of the grippers engaging the outer faces of the can closures.
Fig. 3 is a view partly in side elevation and partly in sectional elevation of a can attached to a shipping and display card in accordance with my invention.
Referring, now, more in detail, and by reference characters to the drawing, which illustrates a preferred embodiment of my invention, the shipping and display card, or board A illustrated in Fig. 1, is constructed, or formed preferably of a single section or blank of cardboard, or other preferably fibrous material of any desirable size and shape, which blank, for the formation of the shipping and display card, is suitably provided with one or more rows of can opposed grippers or tabs l.
The grippers or tabs which are integral with the shipping and display board A are formed by providing the card with a plurality of spaced rows of suitably spaced horizontal slits 2 arranged in alignment longitudinally, and, in or out of alignment vertically.
The board A is also provided with vertically arranged slits designated 3. There are two of these slits 3 arranged in pairs relative to each horizontal slit 2 and the slits 3 meet with the ends of the horizontal slits 2 to provide the grippers, or tabs designated I, and, as it will be observed from Fig. 1, the free ends of each two rows of grippers 10 or tabs formed on the card are directed or point toward each other.
The grippers I thus formed, as apparent, can be readily flexed toward the display face of the card so that a can can be supported in position 15 on the card between each pair of grippers or tabs I.
The closures 4 for each can body 5 are formed of metal and are crimped in position on the paper can body 5 in the usual manner. The closures 20 each comprise a fiat wall 6 and edge flange 1 to form recessed closures, which flanges l engage with the perimeter of the inner face of the can body and have their free end portion rolled over the ends of the can body for biting engagement, as at 8, with the outer face of the can body for securely locking the closures on the end of the can body. It is essential that the end closures for the can bodies be recessed and marginally flanged to provide means to be engaged by the 30 grippers or tabs I, for supporting the cans in position on the shipping and display card and to prevent accidental displacement on, or removal of the cans from the card during shipment, or when displayed. 35
A can, preferably filled'with merchandise, is adapted to be supported by a pair of grippers or tabs l on the board, and in positioning a can on the board, one gripper is preferably flexed slightly forward at its free end beyond the display face 40 of the card and then either the flange of the top closure or bottom closure is inserted between the free end of the flexed gripper and the board proper, and then the card may then be flexed to insert the flange of the other closure between the 00- 5 acting gripper and the board proper for securely attaching the can to the board for shipping, as well as display purposes. r
The grippers, which may also be termed tongues, being arranged in pairs and pointing toward each 5 other, provide simple means integral with the cardboard or base member between two of which a can is easily positioned so that the tongues will engage the flanged closures for sustaining the can in position for shipping and display purposes. 55
When the board has been filled with cans, the card with the cansthereon can be packed in cartons for shipment, as is manifest, and when the cards have been removed from the carton, they may be readily placed for display Dl podea with the cans already in position thereon.
To remove the cans from the shipping and displaycard, all thatisnecessarytodoistopull the can forwardly, preferably one end first, to
release the same from the grippers, or tongues;
The many advantages of the herein described invention will readily suggest themselves to those skilled in the art to which it appertains.
From the foregoing description, it is evident that a simple device for this purpose has been disclosed, but it is to be understood that I have illustrated and described a preferred embodiment only of the invention and I do not desire to restrict, or limit myself to the very details of the construction shown and described, which is merely illustrative, it being obvious that changes, not involving the exercise of invention, may be made without conflicting or departing from the spirit of the invention within the scope of the appended claim.
What I claim is:
A shipping and display package having, in combination, a cardboard, said board having a plurality of vertical and horizontal rows of spaced grippers formed by horizontally aligned slits, merging at their ends with vertically aligned slits so that the grippers will be rectangular in shape, and a paper container having depressed metal end closures with rolled edges held in position between each pair of grippers and with the long straight free edges of the grippers tightly engaging the outer faces of the depressed metal end closures for supporting the cans wholly on one side of the card board with the portions of the card board adjacent the ends of each pair of grippers serving as supports for the rolled edges of the metal end closures to be forced against by 20 the action of the grippers.
