I Application Nove'inberlZO, 1940 Serial No. 366,345
Q CIaims. (Cl. 217-40) This invention relates to improvements in receptacles;
Fruits and vegetables are now quite largely shipped in baskets and these, particularly the larger sizessuch as bushel and half-bushel, are
commonly round in horizontal dimensions. The
result is that much space is lost in transporta tion and storage as compared to the transporta-j tion and storage of such products in rectangular receptacles.
- The main'objects of this invention are:
First, to provide a receptacle or container which is well adapted for use in the handling of fruits and vegetables, including the packing,
storage, and shipment thereof.
such as cellular board or container board, at the same time they are supported so that they are not likely to be ruptured or damaged-in theuse of the receptacle.
Third, to provide an improved structureand means for securing the end portions of the receptacle greatly facilitating the attachment and releasing thereof and permitting effective packing of the contents.
Fourth, to provide a structure having these advantages which is quite economical and at thev same time strong and rigid.
Fifth, to provide a structure in which the wall panels may be renewed should they become'soiled.
or damaged. I
Objects relating to details and economies of the invention will appear from the description to follow. The invention is defined'and pointed out:
in the claims.
Preferred embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in

I 1 I Referring to the accompanying drawings, I provide a frame formed of suitable wood stock and comprising corner membe'rsl and sidepieces 2, ,2, 3, 3, ,4, '4- and 5 extending between and suitably joined to the corner members as by means of dowels or tenons indicated at 6 in Fig. 4. It will be understood, however,tha't the pieces constituting the frame may be '1' oined by means of dovetailed tenons l and mortices 8, asshown in Fig.
or bymeansjof fastener members a as shown in Fig. 11. It is to be noted that the members 4, 4 and 5 are intermediatethe members 2, 2, and
3, 3, respctivelyQand the numberof the inter mediate members may be as desired. However,
the structure illustrated is sufiiciently strong and i rigid for ordinary purposes. It will be appreciated that the number of crosspieces and the weight of material would be gaugedby thesize of the receptacle. i
. Thecrosspiecesj larearranged substantially flush with the ends of the corner members while.
the crosspieces, 3, 3 are arranged in aspaced relation to the ends of thecorner members providing recesses receiving endclosure 'members designated generally by the numeral l0. These end closure members comprise cro'sspieces H and "The crosspieces H of the end closure members have longitudinal grooves l3therein while the corner members havegrooves M in their ends' aligned with the grooves I3, and grooves J5 in their sides aligned with these grooves l3 and I4.
h It will be noted by a referenceto the drawings that the closure members fit within the uprights andrest upon the frame side pieces 3; The structure illustrated is provided with a closure at each end.---
lflhefclosure members are detachably retained" by'means; of the bail-likegretaining' members 16, thebights of whichare' arranged in'the grooves 13 in the members I l and in the aligned grooves M in the ends of the crosspieces with their arms I! in the grooves I5 in the sides of the side members. The arms I! terminate in inwardly projecting lugs l8 engaging holes IS in the uprights, and when the lugs are so engaged, the end members are very securely retained and capable of withstanding such load as may be imposed upon them when the receptacle is filled or in the handlingof the receptacles.
These end closure retaining members are formed of spring wire stock so that they may be sprung outwardly as indicated in Fig. 4 for engagement and disengagement and when engaged are eiiectively retained.
In the embodiment illustrated, the side wall" panels 20, and 2|, 2| are preferably formed as a unit and of fibrous material such, for example, as cellular board. These wall panels are disposed in alignment and flexibly connectedby.
scorings as indicated at 22.
It will be noted that the wall panels are of somewhat greater vertical width than thefpane'ls 2Iso that when the unit is placed withinthe supporting frame the edge portions 23 of "the panels 20 overlap or are'in lapping supporting relation to the framemembers 2. Owing to the inset of the frame members 3, the edges'24 of the panels 21' overlap or are "in lapping supporting relation to the members 3.
' The end wall panels 25 are arranged in supported relation to the end closure membersthatis, they are arrangedon' the inner side thereof and they are disposed within the side wall panels so that'their edges are in supported engagement thereWith- -that is, they'hold the side walls'extended.
The receptacle is well adapted'for the packing of fruits and vegetables and in packing one end closure member may be applied and if desired thecorresponding end panel 25 inserted; The facing of fruit or other product packed may then be arranged, the receptacle filled, and the other end paneland end closure member'ap-' plied. -The receptacle-may then beinvertiid when it -is-desired to expose the faced contents, the end panel at the face side'of course being then removed. This may be'very conveniently done-owing to'the ease with which the end closuremembers are secured or'released.
The-wall panels are effectively supported and protected by this frame." It'will be understood that it is not necessary to use the'end panels '25 unless that is desired, and for certain contents the wallpanels should have'ventilating holes as 26 therein. I
The side slats of theen'd receptacles are spaced from the members 2 so as to receive the edges 23*of thewall panels 20 and'this further serves as a supporting meanstherefor.
I have illustrated and described my improvements in embodiments which I consider very practical. I have not attempted to illustrate or describe other embodiments or adaptations as it is believed that this disclosure will enable 1.1m a'recepta cle, the combination or a frame comprising corner members and side pieces extending between and fixedly securedto said corner members, the side pieces of one opposedpair.
