Application September 1 Claim.
This invention relates to a package or container for powdered material.
It is the general object of our invention to provide a convenient package or container for 5 such material, which may be readily constructed by folding a single piece of sheet material, and in which package or container powdered material may be sold and distributed.
A portion of the container constitutes a nozzle,
the extreme end of which may be cut off in order to dispense the contents, which may then be ejected through the nozzle by pressing the sides of the container together with a bellows action.
It is a further object of our invention to provide such a package or container in which the base of the container is of firm and substantial construction and in which the side or edge portions thereof are scored for convenient transformation by slmple pressure to a shape adapted for bellows operation.
Our invention further relates to arrangements and combinations of parts which will be hereinafter described and more particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
A preferred form of the invention is shown in the drawing, in which Fig. l is a plan view of a blank from which our improved powder container may be formed by a folding operation;
Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the container; Fig. 3 is a side elevation thereof, and
Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 3 but showing the device adapted for ejecting the contents.
Referring to the drawing, our improved dispensing package or container is preferably formed from light pasteboard or similar sheet material and comprises a body portion B and a pyramidal upper end portion D.
The body portion B is preferably of elongated and substantially rectangular shape and comprises a front ID, a back I I, sides l2 and an overlapping flap l3. Bottom portions I6, ll, 18 and I9 extend downward from the lower edges of the parts II], II and I2 respectively but are sepand a flap 35 respectively. The side portions 33 Elliott, Worcester. and Roland M. Cook, Shrewsbury, Mass.

lines in Fig. 1 and the sides of the body B and top portion D are also scored along the additional broken lines 4|] for a purpose to be described. It will be noted that the lines 40 start closely adjacent the top end of the upper portion D and extend downward to a point not far above the bottom of the folded container. When the blank is folded along the dotted lines indicated in Fig. 1, a package or container results such as is shown in Figs. 2 and 3, in which powdered material may be conveniently sold and distributed.
The lower end portions l6, ll, I8 and 19 fold and overlap as indicated in Figs. 3 and 4 to provide a bottom of triple thickness and of firm and substantial construction. The flap l3 folds inside of the back II and is secured thereto. The extension or flange 34 folds within the upper part of the back I l and may be pasted or otherwise secured thereto. Within the extension or flange 34 and may be secured by paste thereto. The several portions of the bottom may be similarly secured together by paste.
In this way a strong and substantial package or container is produced having creased fold lines 40 along the sides of the body portion B and top D as indicated in Fig. 3.
When it is desired to dispense the contents, the tip of the container is cut off to provide a nozzle opening and the sides are pressed inward along the creased fold lines 40, thus giving the container a bellows shape and adapting it to be used for ejecting the contents by pressing together the front portions l0 and 30 and the back portions ll, 3| and 32.
It will be noted that the bottom, being of triple thickness and being also unscored, remains flat when the contents is being ejected, so that the package may be supported on this firm flat surface after use. The device, being folded from a single blank of sheet material, may be very cheaply and easily constructed and is intended to be thrown away after having served its purpose and having been emptied of its contents.
Having thus described our invention. and the advantages thereof, we do not wish to be limited to the details herein disclosed, otherwise than as set forth in the claim, but what we claim is:-
A dispensing container formed from a blank of sheet material, comprising a body portion having four sides all of substantially rectangular configuration, a reinforced base formed of overlapping flaps integral with the sides, and a dispensing portion of pyramidal form terminating The upper flap 35 folds in a nozzle and having four sides all of triangutainer bein g operable with a bellows action to lar shape, said container being scored on two eject its contents through said nozzle after the opposite sides for-inward folding, the score lines tip of the pyramidal portion has been severed. in the assembled container extending from the nozzle of the container downwardly to a, location GEORGE R. ELLIOTT. adjacent the base of the container, said con- ROLAND M. COOK.
