[IMPROVEMENT IN BOXES FOR PACKING BUTTER AND LARD.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 212,625, dated February 25, 1879 application filed May 25, 1878.
To all whom "it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JOHN W. ROGERS, of
Solomon City, in the county of Dickinson, State of Kansas, have invented a new and useful Improvement for Packing Butter and Lard, of which the following is a specification:
The invention relates to a small wood and tin box constructed without the use of nails or screws, in order that it maybe easily knocked down or taken apart without injuring either the box or its contents. Said box is constructed of light wood, with the ends and sides tenoned and grooved and fitted together, with the top and bottom made of tin, with the edges turned down to hold the box together, so that by removing the top the sides and ends of the box can be easily removed, leaving the butter or lard undisturbed and in a proper shape for market. In the top and bottom thin pieces of wood are inserted to prevent the metal from coming in contact with the contents of the box.
In the accompanying drawings, in which similar letters of reference indicate like parts, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a box embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section of the same. Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional View of the box, showing the manner in which the corners are connected.
A represents the cover to the top and bottom of the box, and c the flanges of the covers; B, the end of the box, and D the side of the box. 0 is the inside lining between the contents and the top and bottom of the box, and E and F show the manner in which the ends and sides are tenoned and grooved together, so that the sides and ends cannot fall inward, but may be parted by pulling them outwardly when the covers have been removed, All parts of the box being made to exactly match each other any person can easily put them together. 7 y
The box is held together during transportation by means of a small cord tied around it. These boxes are intended to be packed in a larger box, as cigar-boxes and other like size boxes are when transported to market.
that I claim as my invention is-- A wooden box formed of Walls grooved and tenoned to prevent their falling inward and permit their falling outward, and otherwise unattached, and of a top and bottom each having flanges inclosin g and holding together the walls of the box, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
