ping up lightweight articles are generally not sufllcientby themselves and must be wrapped with paper and tied'with string so that they can be easily carried. It results therefrom that a serious loss of time is caused by the making of parcels.
Some wrapping deviceshave been proposed which are intended to do'away with these draw-' backs. However, these wrapping devices are not practical and do not permit of enveloping the object, which has to be introduced into the wrapping device in question through a small aperture. This is very inconvenient when the articles-to be packed are soft and not sufficiently rigid for being inserted in that way.
The object of the present invention is to provide a wrapping device which is quite complete in itself, does not necessitate any external means for completely closing it, and can be'readily carried by .hand.
The wrapping. device according to my invention makes it possible to wrap the article with the same facility as if use were made of a mere sheet of paper or fa cardboard box, and it further possesses therigidity of such a cardbbard box. Said wrapping device makes it possible to pack anobject of any kind with the greatest facility and rapidity and to close the wrapping device with a minimum loss of time in such a manner that it can then be carried by hand as a Iparcel tied with string and provided with a handle. Said wrapping device may be manufactured at a very low price, and is, for instance,-
cheaper than a cardboardbox. The wrapping device according to my invention consists essentially of a sheet of cardboard, paper or any other similar material such for instance as fabric, leather or a paper subjected to a special treatment, cut out in sub manner'that it can be completely unfolded and subsequently folded so as to be given a shape of a box. Said sheet is further provided with devices which permit to fix it inthe closed position through simple and rapid operations. It is further provided with a handle which makes it possibleto grasp the wrapping device thus closed, and to carry it easily, It will be noted-that the wrapping device according to my invention comprises no clasp, and necessitates neither gluing nor cutting off and assembling of several parts, and generally no previous fixation. Said wrapping device consists, asabove stated, of a single part and therefore avoids'the drawbacks of packing devices made of two parts such as a box, one of the parts of ,Cartons and all other packing devices for wrap- :.Fig. 1 showing several and 26 respectively,
which can be lost, thus making the other useless. On the other hand, the fact of making the wrapping device in a single piece substantially in-' creases its strengthsto such a degree that this packing device can readily replace a regular va- 5 lise, especially when it is made of a sufficiently strong material, such as cardboard. Finally, it can be folded in an ideal manner so that the space it occupies when folded is much smaller than that of unfoldable boxes. sesses'with respect to such boxes, the advantage of a rigidity equal to that of an unfoldable box. This is due to the fact that, as the corners of the cardboard are not pushed in as in the case of existing foldable boxes, the wrapping device .is not deformed whether it is in the folded or unfolded state. Besides, the fact that it is provided with a string and a handle makes it much more practical, and saves a lot of time in wrapping up articles. sarily comprises a handle, avoids thenecessity for the buyers-to take the parcel under theirfarm, thus hiding the advertising inscriptions that may exist on the wrapping.
. Preferred embodiments of the present inventlon will be hereinafter described wi reference to the appended drawings given me ely by way of example, and in which:
Fig. 1 shows the wrapping device fully unfolded and flattened, said wrapping device being provided with closing means according to an other embodiment of my invention;
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the folded wrapper of Fig. 1. i
Figs. 3 and 4.- are perspective views similar to other means of closing the have shown at l-2, a sheet be folded along tour 11 by bands of cardboard or any other suitable material. Band 3,,carries a handle l5 and a string or ribbon ll.
Band 5 carries a small disc l6 which is intended to serve for the fastening of ribbon or string i4, when the package is made. Said disc I 6 can also be replaced by any other fixation devices. Eachof the bands l1 and I8 has a string, 24
attached to it at points adjacent band i about midway thereof. The band I It further plJS- 10 Finally, the fact that it neces-. 2
d, shown in dotted lines in 4 2, at its central portion has a disc 21 attached thereto.
When an article. has been placed on band 2, it is suflicient to fold up edges I1, l8, 4 and 5 of said band along lines e, f, b, w, and to bring band I into a direction parallel with band 2 by folding it along line 0. Said band lplays a part somewhat similar to that of the cover of a carton. There then remains, in order to completely close the wrapping device, to tie string 14 to disc [6 and loop strings 24 and 26, about disc 21. The wrapping device is now completely closed, and is in the state shown in Fig. 2 in which it can be readily carried by means of a handle l5.
It will readily be understood that the wrap-- ping device according to the present invention can be utilized for the packing of any object whatever, the material of which it is made being chosen according to the weight and to the nature of the object to be packed. Said wrapping device may be reinforced in any suitable way, for instance by means of three bands of greater strength I, 6 and 8, which permit the wrapping device to assume the form of a carton when it is closed, and to fix handle l5 and the fastening devices. 1
In that way, once it is closed as shown in Fig. 2, the wrapping device has the shape of an ordinary box.
In the embodiment of my invention shown in Fig. 3, the closing or fastening of the wrapping device is also effected by means of two strings 28 and II, the ends of which are fixed to sides 42 and 43 of the box, and the other ends of which are fixed to small discs 28 and-30 fixed at each end of side 2 of the wrapping device.
In the embodiment of Fig. 4, the wrapping device is closed in a manner similar to that of Fig. 3, with the difference that strings 28 and 3| carried by the sides of, the wrapping device are tied to corresponding strings 32 and 33 replacing discs 2! and 30.
While I have described what I deem to be practical and eificient embodiments of my invention, it should be well understood that I do not wish to be limited thereto as there might be'changes made in the arrangement, disposition and form of the parts without departing from the principle of my invention as comprehended within the scope of the appended claims.
What I claim is: v
1. A wrapping device of the type described,
.which comprises, in combination, a single sheet of a suitable material provided with four parallel fold lines so as to divide the sheet into five parallel bands, and with two fold lines at rightangles to the first-mentioned ones, and further provided with slits extending in line with the first-mentioned fold lines and between the second-mentioned fold lines and the corresponding edges of the sheet, so as to form on the outer side of each of said second-mentioned fold lines four rectangular bands independent from one another and each of which is separated from one of the first-mentioned five bands by one of said second-mentioned fold lines, so that the sheet can be folded along said lines directly and without any previous operation in such manner as to form a rigid box, the first and the fifth of the first-mentioned bands overlapping each other and the four second-mentioned bands overlapping one another, so as to form the ends of the box when the sheet is in the folded position, all the elements thus limited by said fold lines and said slits being entirely free and independent from one another, except for their being connected through said fold lines, when the sheet is in the unfolded position, and at least one fastening string fixed to one of the secondmentioned bands, and means on the second of the five first-mentioned bands for fixing the free end of said string to said last-mentioned band.
2. A wrapping device according to claim 1 further including at least one fastening string fixed to the first of the five first-mentioned bands and means on the fifth of said five first-mentioned bands for securing the free end of said last-mentioned string to said fifth band.
