Description

11, H 3 FOX CONTAINER Filed July 24, 1940 A ttorneys Patented Nov. 11, 1941 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CONTAINER Harold B. Fox, Wilkes-Barre, Pa. Application July 24, 1940, Serial No. 347,337
1 Claim.
Thisinvention relates to containers for packs or cartridges, and has for the primary object the provision of an efficient and inexpensive means for automatically moving a pack or cartridge part way from the container when the latter is open to facilitate the obtaining of the contents of the pack or cartridge in amounts as desired.
With theseand other objects in View as will become more apparent as the description proceeds, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more ing the container open and the pack or cartridge thereof partly extended from the container by an elastic sling or cradle.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary front elevation showing the container in an open position and a post or lug formed thereon adjacent the mouth on which may be anchored the sling.
Referring in detail to the drawingpthe numeral 5 indicates a container and 6 the hinged cover thereof. The container shown in the I drawing is of the type frequently used to receive a pack or cartridge of tobacco as indicated by the character I. It is a well known fact that after a certain amount of the tobacco has been obtained from the pack or cartridge it is, inconvenient to loosen the remaining amount of tobacco so that it can be poured fromthe containerf To eliminate this objection to the container of the character described, a sling 8 is provided which consists of an endless elastic band. The'band is fastened onto the container at one side thereof by engaging with the hinge 9 of the container. The opposite wall of the container is provided with spaced notches H defining therebetween a tongue or post l2 to be engaged by the endless elastic band. With the elastic band applied to the container as described and shown in Figure 1, an elastic sling is provided.
When the container is originally packed with the cartridge the elastic band may be arranged within the cover and after purchased the pack or cartridge may be lifted from the container and the elastic band brought into the notches and into engagement with the tongue I2 which will arrange the band in a draped position downwardly in the container forming an elastic sling. The distance in which the elastic sling depends downwardly in the container is approximately one-half of the depth of the container. The cartridge is then inserted in the container to come into engagement with the sling and be supported thereby. Pressure placed on the cartridge will force the latter entirely within the container placing tension on the sling. The cover when brought into closed position will retain the cartridge within the container. On opening the cover the elastic sling moves the cartridge partly outwardly of the container as shown in Figure 2 so that the contents of the cartridge can be easily obtained.
While I have specifically stated that the container is used for tobacco it is to be understood that the present invention may be used on containers for other merchandise.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it will be understood that minor changes in construction, combination and arrangement of parts may be made without departing from the spirit and pass under the tongues of the cover and the con-
