HOLDER Filed March 29, 1943 I71 vz1%r Patented Mar. 14, 1944 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE HOLDER Harry Eri Upham, Wakefield, Mass. Application March 29, 1943, Serial No. 481,062
3 Claims.
My present invention relates to holders and more particularly to a combined holder and handle adapted for use with cartons such as soap flakes and the like.
The principal object of my invention is an improved holder and handle for cartons;
Another object is an improved device of the class above indicated which may readily be applied or attached to a carton without the use of tools;
Another object is an improved holder handle having adjustable spur holding means which may be bent inwardly or outwardly when being engaged or disengaged with a carton;
Still another object is a holder handle having the elements above mentioned and in addition thereto having a lowermost bottom shelf portion against which the bottom corner of the carton rests and is supported thereby;
A still further object is a device, as above in-- icated in which the lower bottom and holding means and the upper holding means are attached to the lower and upper ends respectively of a handle portion; and
Other novel features of my invention will be apparent as the description of the same progresses.
Referring to the drawing illustrating my invention.
Fig. l is a sid elevation of the device showing it attached to a carton, the carton being indicated in dot-and-dash lines;
Fig. 2 is a rear elevation of the device also showing the carton in dot-and-dash lines;
Fig. 3 is a plan view of the invention as viewed from the bottom, the carton being shown in dotand-dash lines, and
Fig. 4 is a top plan view of the invention, the carton being broken away and indicated in dotand-dash lines, also the upper spur holding members are shown in dot-and-dash lines in a position assumed either just before being engaged with the carton, as in Fig. 2, or when disengaged when removing a carton.
Referring more in detail to the drawing, ID indicates a carton. This carton may be a soap carton, a breakfast cereal carton or any other carton or object to which it is desired to affix a temporary handle for the purpose of handling the carton.
The holder handle is comprised of a handle portion ll having a U shaped spur member l2 secured to the top thereof by means of a screw M or any other convenient fastening means. The free ends of the U shaped member 12 are provided with inturned and opposed spur portions 13. Attached to the lowermost end of the handle II by means of the screw I4 is a lower shelf portion l5. This shelf portion l5 includes a back portion l5a. The side portions l5b are attached to the bottom of the shelf along the lowermost edges l6 and thereby form a bracket to hold the lowermost corner of the carton I0. In addition thereto, I have provided a spur member 11 struck upwardly from the bottom portion of the member IS the shape of which is similar to the spurs l3 provided in the U shaped member at the top of the handle II.
In operation, the carton I0 is pressed down into the bracket member l5 attached to the lower end of the handle H permitting the spur member H to pierce the bottom of the carton. At this point it will be noted that because of the spur member I! being pushed through the carton In the carton is prevented from sliding forward in the lower bracket IS. The carton I0 is now fitted into the U member l2 at the top of the handle ll while the spurs are bent outwardly, as shown in Fig. 4 after which the spur members l3 are pressed toward each other thereby forcing the spur members I3 through the sides of the carton, in the position shown in Figs. 1 and 2. It will now be apparent that the top of the carton i0 cannot be either tilted outwardly from the handle H or raised upwardly with respect to the handle while the spurs I3 are in place and, at the same time, the bottom of the carton cannot he slid out of the lower bracket l5.
In the position above described the carton may be picked up by the handle H and turned in any position without becoming released from the holder.
In actual practice, in the case of a soap powder or a soap flake, the upper end of the container is punctured so that the desired amount of soap powder or flakes may be shaken out of the container.
Preferably the upper U shaped member is made of a cheap soft metal which may be bent into either the open or closed position with respect to the spurs l3. A cheap metal may be used for the bottom bracket and a wood member used for the handle but it should be borne in mind that I may use any material which may be found suitable in any of the parts without departing from the spirit of the invention and I may also alter the proportions within wide limits.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new is:
1.. A holder handle for cartons having a lower bracket provided with a spur member engaging with said carton and an upper bracket, said upper bracket having opposed spur members engaging with said carton, a handle member connecting with said upper and lower brackets.
2. A holder member for cartons having a lower bracket provided with a spur member engaging with said carton and an upper bracket having opposed spur members located on the free ends thereof engageable with the sides of said carton, a connecting handle portion connecting said upper and lower bracket portions.
3. A holder handle member for holding cartons and the like comprising in combination, a lower bracket attached to the lower end of said handle, said lower bracket having spur member upstanding in the bottom portion thereof, an upper U shaped member attached to the upper end of said handle, said U member having free ends turned at ninety degrees and opposed to each other, said free ends forming spur points for the purpose of engaging through the sides of said cartons.
