Application April 5, 1937, Serial No. 135,004
v e p 2 Claims.
The invention relates to small jars of the type commonly employed as containers for cold cream, ointm'ents, and the like. Such containers have heretofore been made of glass. More recently, it
"5 has been proposed to construct such containers of sheet metal as, for example, by utilizing cooperatinginner and outer sheet metal shells as shown in Patent No, 2,0 i4,093,issued June 16, 1936. Such sheet metal containers reduce the Ii)v weight and frangibility of the article as compared to a glass container. There are also other advantages resulting from the use of sheet metal in fabricating the container, such as its greater adaptability for decoration.
ance. i i
Another object of the present invention is to provide an improved container of the type set forth having its several component parts formedfrom sheet metal and so fashioned that they may be quickly and easily assembled to form a strong finished structure. 1
Further objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent as the following description proceeds and the features of novelty which characterize the invention are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this specification.
For a better understanding of the invention, reference may be had to the accompanying drawing in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a container embodying the invention. 1
Fig. 2 is an enlarged vertical transverse sectional view along the line 2-2 in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged perspective detail View of the bottom closure member included in the container shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
For purposes of illustration, the invention has 5 been shown as embodied in a jar or container ing inner and outer sheet metal shells preferably 50 so fashioned that the interior of the container will have an entirely smooth surface terminating in a broad rounded edge at thetop of the container. An improved arrangement is had for retaining the inner and outer shells in their assembled relation. The particular container illustrat- One object of the present invention is to procally manufactured container of pleasing appeared comprises inner and outershells designated generally by the numerals l0 and l I, respectively.
The inner shell H] is preferably cup-shaped and maybe formed from a single sheet o-fmetal drawn to provide a bottom wall I2 and a side 5 wall 13 terminating in a comparatively wide outwardly flaring lip it extending entirely about the upper edge of the inner shell. A smooth interior surface entirely free from joints or crevices is thus had as the lip l 4 forms a smooth coni P10 tinuation of the inner side walls of the container so that there is no crevice nor irregularity in which the contents of the jar may become lodged.
In the preferred construction illustrated, the lip l4 also includes a downwardly projecting portion l5 arranged in spaced relation with respect a to the adjacent upper end of the side wall of the shell and adapted toreceive the adjacent edge of the outer shell ll.
The exterior side walls of the container are 0 formed by the generally tubular outer shell II which in the preferred construction illustrated, is provided with successive shoulders l6 and I! at its upper end. Upon reference to Fig. 2, it will be seen that the upper portion of the outershell 25 is press fitted within the portion l5 of the inner shell, frictionally engaging the same. A suitable closure cap may be fitted over the top of the container with its lower edge resting against the shoulder I6 on the outer shell. The shouldered 80 upper portion of the outer shell II is given a smooth contour, as illustrated, in the event that a suction cap is to be utilized and may be formed with lugs or projections thereon if it is desired to use a threaded cap.
In accordance with the present invention, an improved arrangement has been provided for maintaining the lower end portion of the inner shell [0 in spaced relation to the side walls of the outer shell II. To this end, a resilient sheet 40 metal cup designated generally by the numeral [8 is fitted in the lower end of the outer shell I l and is disposed in frictional engagement with the lower end portion of the inner shell II]. This cup l8 includes a flat bottom wall I9 on which the bottom wall l2 of the inner shell l0 rests, and. an annular side wall 20. The entire upper portion 2i of the cup sidewall I9 is bent inwardly and resiliently engages the adjacent side walls of the inner shell It! at spaced points only, this engagement and bending of the cup side wall being had by crimping or folding the same at spaced points as indicated at 22. The cup I8 is preferably positioned in the outer shell II by press fitting the same within an open inwardly '5 extending annular bead 23 formed on the lower edge of the outer shell.
In assembling the container described above, the inner shell I!) may first be inserted in the outer shell II and frictionally secured thereto at its upper end by forcing the edge I of the outwardly flaring lip l4 over the adjacent portion of the outer shell and into abutment with the shoulder I'i'." Ifhe sheet metal cup 18 is then inserted in the lower end of the outer shell I I, being press fitted therein, and indentations or folds 22 in the side wall of the cup grip the adjacent side walls of the inner shell in tightly due to the resilient character of the material from which they are formed. The parts of the container are thus snugly fitted together in a strong rigid structure. It will also be noted that the bottom wall I9 01 the cup l8 forms a smooth bottom for the container thereby giving it ,a pleasing appearance and also closes the lower ends of the air spaces between the spaced side walls of the shells.
Although a particular embodiment of the invention has been shown anddescribed in some detail for purposes of illustration, there is no intention to thereby limit the invention to such embodiment but on the other hand, the appended claims are intended to cover all modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention.
I claim as; my invention:
1. A container of the type set forth comprising, a tubular outer shell, 2. cup-shaped inner shell disposed within said outer shell in spaced relation thereto, an outwardly flaring lip formed on said inner shell and overlying the upper edge of said outer shell, said upper edge of said outer shell being frictionally telescoped within said lip and a sheet metal cup press fitted in the lower end of said outer shell and having spaced portions of the side walls thereof bent inwardly into frictional engagement with the lower end portion of said inner shell for maintaining the same 'in predetermined spaced relation with respect to the side walls of said outer shell.
disposed within saidouter shell, said inner and outer shells being secured together at their upper ends and the side walls thereof being 104 cated in spaced relation, said outer shell having an inwardly extending annular bead formed on the lower edge thereof, and a closure for the bottom of the container embodying a sheet metal cup telescoped within the lower end ofsaid outer shell and press-fitted against said bead, the upper edge of the sidewall of said cup being crimped inwardly at spaced points in resilient engagement with the side walls of the lower portion of said inner shell for maintaining the same in predetermined'spaced relation with respect to ,the side walls of said outer shell WALLACE c.
