Claims.
The invention relates to container structures and primarily seeks to provide a novel form of container adapted for packaging adhesive, gauze 'or other tape products forthe market, special provision being made therein for dispensing and tearing ofi tape lengths.
In its more detailed nature the invention resides in providing a container structure including a generally rectangular body for containing a roll of tape having its open top defined at least about its side edge and the end edge over which the tape-is drawn as it is being dispensed by a rolled bead, and a cover hingedly connected to the body, preferably at the end edge thereof remote from the end edge over which the tape is drawn, and having a depending skirt which is serrated to provide a tape tearing edge across the free end of the cover and extending about the free end corners.
Another object of the invention is to provide a container structure of the character'stated in which the hingedly mounted cover is provided with stiffener ribs and has side portions of its skirt bent slightly inwardly to engage the body with retaining friction eiiective to hold the cover closed.
With the above and other objects in view that will hereinafter appear, the nature of the invention will be more fully understood by following the detailed description, the appended claims -crossstiction taken on the line 4-4 on Figure 3.
In the example of embodiment of the invention herein illustrated the container is generally rectangular in shape, the body thereof being formed of wide, generally square sides -5 and relatively narrow rectangular ends 6 upstandingfrom a bottom 1. The edge portion of the container body defining the open top thereof is provided with an outwardly rolled bead 8.
The open top of the container body is closed by a removable cover' 9'which is preferably hingedly connected to the-upper extremity of one end wall Bas indicated at Ill. The cover includes a depending skirt II for embracing th bead 8 at the upper extremity of the sides 5 and the end 8 beneath the free end of the cover, and said cover preferably is provided with stiffening rib equipment as at i2. At the free end of the cover, that is the end remote from the hinge connection, the lower edge of the skirt is serrated as at l3 to provide a tape tearing edge, and it will be noted by reference to Figures 1 and 2 of the drawing that the serrations extend across the full width of the skirt edge at the free end of the cover and around both corners.
It will be observed by reference to Figure 4 of the drawing thatthe skirt II at the sides of the container is turned in slightly so as to yieldably grip the bead 8 of the container body with retaining friction.
The tape I5 is packaged in the container body, preferably in roll form, and is dispensed by drawing the free end thereof out of the body over the bead 8 beneath the free end of the cover, as illustrated in Figures 1 and -2. When it is desired to tear off the desired length of the tape IS the cover is lowered in the manner illustrated in Figure 3 so as to clamp the tape against the bead 8 in the manner indicated at l 6, thereby definitely positioning and securely holding the tape as it is'being torn by drawing the free end thereof upwaro'iy against the tearing serrations Hi. This clamping of the tape during the tearing thereof greatly facilitates accurate tearing,
and by extending the serrations around the corners of the cover, a person dispensing the desired length 'of the tape need not be too careful in centering the dispensed end over the bead at the upper terminus of the respective wall 6 in.
order to assure proper tearing of the tape.
It is of course to be understood that the details of structure and the arrangement of parts may be variously changed and modified without departing from the spirit and scope of themvention. V
Iclaim:
1. A container of the character described comprising a generally rectangular body for enclosing a tape supply and having sides ends a bot tom and an open top defined by an outwardly turned bead, and a rectangular cover forming a removable closure for the open top of the body and having a skirt for embracing the upper beaded extremity of the body. said skirt having its lower edge serrated and extended slightlybe-Q low said bead at one end of the cover to clamp the free end of the tape against the bead and.
I 'of the skirt at its sides inwardly turned so as to engage the body bead with retaining friction.
2. A container of the character described comprising a generally rectangular body'for enclosing a tape supply and having sides ends a bottom and an open top, and a rectangular cover forming a removable closure for the open top of the body hingedly connected at one end to the body and having a skirt for embracing the upper beaded extremity of the body, said skirt'having its lower edge serrated at the free end of the cover to provide a tape tearing edge said serrations extending across said skirt end and around at least a portion of each skirt corner at the free'end of the cover.
3. A container of the character described comprising a generally rectangular body for enclosing a tape supply and having sides ends a bottom and an open top defined by an outwardly turned bead, and a rectangular cover forming a removable closure for the open' top of the body hingedly connected at one end to the body and having a skirt for embracing the upper beaded extremity of the body, said skirt having its lower edge serrated at the free end of the cover to provide a tape tearing edge said serrations extending across said skirt end and around at least a portion of each skirt corner at the free end of the cover and at least portions of the skirt at its sides being inwardly turned so as to engage the body bead with retaining friction.
4. A container of the character described comprising a generally rectangular body for enclosing a tape supply and having sides, ends, a bottom, and an open top defined by an outwardly turned bead, and a rectangular cover forming a removable closure for the open top of the body hingedly connected at one end of the body and having a skirt forembracing the upper beaded extremity of the body, said skirt having its lower edge serrated at the free end of the cover to provide ,a tape tearing edge said serrations extending across said skirt endiat the free end of the cover and at least portions f the skirt at its sides being inwardly turned so as to engage the body head with retaining friction.
5. A container of the character described comprising a generally rectangular body for enclosing a tape supply and having sides, ends, a bottom, and an open top defined by an outwardly turned bead, and a rectangular cover hingedly connected at one end to said body and forming a closure for the open top'of the body and having a skirt for embracing the upper beaded extremity of the body, said skirt having its lower edge serrated and extended slightly below said WILLIAM F. PUNTE.
