oAn'roN AND magi :15:51: ronmNG THE 7 Henry Kondolf, New York, N. E, assignor to Southern Kraft Corporation, New York, N. Y., a corporation of Delaware Application September 1, 1932, Serial No. 631,334
2'7 Glaims. 01. 229-52) My invention relates to cartons or packages, more particularly to cartons or packages adapted to contain bottles or other articles of analogous shape, and my invention has for an object the 5 provisionof a carton and blank thereforadapted to be formed from a single blank of paper, cardboard or the like that shall be capable of containing, when formed, one or more bottles adapted to be sold as a unit, and having facilities for 1a securing, separating, displaying and carrying the bottle or bottles thus packaged.
A further object of my invention is to provide a container that makes possible unit packing of bottles in compliance with fixed regulations and i5 requirements of public carriers and transportation companies.
My invention has for further objects such other advantages and improvements as may hereinafter be found to obtain.
20 In general, my invention contemplates the provision of a blank having members, panels or sections adapted to be folded and secured to provide a compartment or compartments adapted to receive the foot or bottom end of a bottle or a 25 plurality thereof, together with other panels forming side enclosures for said bottle or bottles and having means for securing the neck or upper end of each bottle packaged. Y My invention further contemplates the pro- 39 vision, when desired, of one or more mutilatable panels or windows adapted to permit a view of the contents of the package, and a recessed portion or portions serving as a handle therefor, as well as certain other features to be described 35 hereinbelow. t
.In order that my invention may clearly be set forth and understood, I now describe, with reference to the drawing accompanying and forming a part of this specification, a preferred form and do manner in which my invention may be embodied and utilized. In this drawing,
Fig. 1 is a developed view of a blank from which thepackage may be formed;
Fig. 2 is a plan view showing an initial stage in id the forming of the package from the blank shown in Fig. l;
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the package as formed; r Fig. 4 is an end elevational view of the pack- 50 age, illustrating a manner in which a plurality of such packages may be conveniently assembled I for shipment or storage; ,and I Fig. 5 is a. perspective view of a portion of the package shown in. Fig. 3, but taken from an op-- iii posite'side.
Similar reference numerals designate similar parts in the several views of the drawing. Referring now to the drawing, it will be seen that the blank of Fig. 1 comprises a central bottom panel A of rectangular shape, defined by 5 score lines i, 2, 3 and 4. Adjoining the panel A along the score lines I and 2, I provide side panels B and B, respectively, the edges of which are defined by score lines 5, 6, l and 8 forming extensions of the score lines 3.and l. 10
Adjoining the side panel B along the score lines 5 and ii and the side panel B along the score lines i and 8, I provide inner side panels C, D, C and D, respectively. The latter are separated by cuts ll, i2, i3 and M, respectively, from two outer side panels E and F which adjoin the bottom panel A along the score lines 3 and 4, re-- spectively. The panels C, D, C and D are provided with notches or slots iii, i6, i1 and i8 for a purpose to be made clear hereinbelow, and the panels D and D adjoin panels G and G along score lines is and 20, respectively, which score lines are drawn parallel to the score lines 5 and 8.
Opposite the score line 3, the panel E adjoins I a separating panel H along a score line 22, which panel H is provided with a number of notches or openings 23 adapted to fit around the necks of the bottles to be packaged.
The side panel F adjoins a top panel J along a score line 26 opposite and parallel to the score line Q, and the panel J adjoins a further panel K along a parallel score line 21. The panels F and K are preferably provided with elongated openings 28 and 29.
Preferably, I provide a mutilatible display panel L within the boundaries of the panel F, which panel L is defined by cuts 3!, 32 and 33 and a score line 34, and I may also provide a window. pane 35 of transparent material of somewhat larger dimensions than the panel L and attached to the panel F around the panel L on that face destined to become an inner side of the package.
In forming the package, the panels G and G are bent at right-angles to the panels D and D along the score lines l9 and 20. The panels C, D,
C and D' are next bent at right-angles to the panels B and .8- along the score lines 5, 6, I and 8, and then the panels B and B are bent at right angles to the panel A along the score lines "I and 2-, it being understood that the above sequence of operations is merely descriptive and may be varied at will;
In this position, the slots l5 and" are caused in mutually engage each other, as are the slots It and I8, as shown in Fig. 2 and panels B, C, D and B, C', D' form a complete shallow tray. The panels G and G now serve as partitions dividing compartments H, M and 43, each of which is adapted to receive and secure the foot or bottom of a bottle 44, illustrated in Fig. 4.
Right-angle bends are then made along score lines 3 and 22, and the notches 23 are caused to engage and secure the necks of the bottles M. Finally, bends'are made along the score lines l, 26 and 27, and the panel K is'fastened to the panel E by means of staples 45 or otherwise, panels E and F enclosingand covering the tray and bottles. lhe panels K and E may be provided with mutually engaging members and slots for fastening purposes in a well known manner, when so desired. With the package formed, the openings 28 and 29 are positioned directly opposite to each other.
By inserting the fingers through the openings 28 and 29, and spreading the fingers if necessary to accommodate the neck of any bottle lying between the openings, the filled package may readily be lifted and carried.
When the package is ofiered for sale, the panel L may be lifted or removed, thus aflording a view of the contents, that is to say, the bottles it, through the window pane 35, thereby increasing the attractiveness of the unit and facilitating the sale thereof.
In storing or shipping a number of such packages, they are preferably placed in an outer case 55 in the manner shown in Fig. 4, thereby saving space and preventing breakage.
'It will be apparent from the description and drawing that when a number oi-bottles (in the specific instance illustrated, three) have been placed in the package and the latter has been closed and fastened, the bottles are securely held in the compartments M, G2 and it and the notches 23 aligned therewith, and are protected from direct contact with each other by the partitions formed by the panels G and G as well as by the panel H. Handling of the package 'is thereby facilitated without rendering the bottles subject to breakage.
My carton or package is adapted to be formed from paper or analogous material, and while various forms of paper, cardboard or the like may be employed, I prefer to use what is known as double-faced, corrugated kraft board, this being a material of suitable rigidity and strength.
The specific example given hereinabove is descriptive and is not intended to limit my invention, and it will be obvious that my carton may be considerably modified in detail without departing from my invention.
- For example, the package may be designed to hold a. smaller or a larger number of bottles or.
the like. The openings 28 and 29 may be omitted, and other holding means provided. The panel L and the pane 35 may be omitted, or duplicates may be provided in the panel E if desired. In place of the notches E5 to It, fastening devices or means of any suitable type may be substituted. Other changes will doubtless be apparent to those skilled in the art. v
My invention is therefore not specifically limited to the illustrative example given hereinabove, but is broadly to be construed as of the scope of the claims hereinafter made.
