This invention relates to stock boxes and it has 'as *its primary lobject 'to provide -a strong, lightweight and durablestock box which may be man- -u-factured at a-relativelyllow-cost.
Another object of Jthe Ainventior-i is to provide improved skid-supported stock boxes capable vof lbeing stacked vin tiers and which, when sostacked, will be locked wtogether against `relative sidewise and endwise movement.
Another object is .to provide a combined tierable stock box and supporting ,base or skid, which is so constructed and .arranged that Athe base of .one unit is adapted tobe .readily .fitted over and supported upon the .DDP Q f the 'box portion of a' similar unit.
vA .further .object `of the invention is t ,provide a combined t'iera'ble Astock box and ,supporting skid, which, when a plurality of themare stacked in a tier., win anord .a relativelylarge lSpace 'between the lower-most box .and .the door for theinsertion .of the .lifting element 4of a platform ftruclg, and a relatively smallerspaee between the .adia- -cent `boxes for the insertion of .the Biting-.element of .a fork truck.
A still .further object is lto 4.provide a .combined tierable stock Vb ox and supporting `skid .in which the skid portion `is made primarily 0f sections of relatively .lightweight angle .iron suitably yshaped and .secured ..togethen for example, `as .by welding, and in which ,certain iparts thereof .are reinforced and stiifened by brace-,plates welded tosaid angle irons.

Referring morespecilically to the drawings and first to the .embodiment of the Iinvention illustrated in -lFigs. 1 :to 'fl inclusive, the improved stock box uni-t is shown `as comprising va receptacle B, or box lproper, open -at the top, and a supporting 'base or skid S, -upon which the receptacle is permanent-1y secured, as by welding, as indicated at w. The box B may be made as a single compartmentor, if desired, it may comprise vtwo compai-laments ld -and b, separated vby la central partiitionp, preferably/.of wood, secured to angle-irons welded to the :side wallsof the box as illustrated in Figs. 1,3,4and'6.
The side walls c and the Iend walls e of the box '.-B are preferably made "of :sheet metal, the end w-alls being folded over land welded to the outer sides -of the side walls,y as indicated a-t f, Fig. 1. 'The xbottoni of the box -is aclosed by iloor boards c supported by angle irons, later to be referred to, forming a part of the lskid S. Wooden cleats k., xseeured'to lthe innerefaceof the side -walls s, overilie the niloor boards Ae and prevent upward -movement of the boards. At the 'top of kthe box, the side walls sare -folded-over -asat -s j(Fig-s. 3 and 7) and are Ywelded. to angle irons -9' which ystrengthen andstiifenthe box.
For -oertain u1jposes, as for example where it 4is desired to have access -to the contents of lthe boxes while lthey are in tiered position, it may be desirable to omit a partor all -of oneorboth ofthe side walls of fthe lboxes Jor fto provide sliding -doors therein, as iscornmon practice.
The skid or .base S, :to which lthe `box B .is permanen-tly secured, iis made `of fabricated metal, :principally Aangle ii-rons, and .com-prises front Aand rear frame members l .and '.2 .eacheonsi-stingof a horizontally disposed box-supporting side .rail .3 having downtu-rned :endfportions .14, aifiording tlegs efor lthebase. f'fIhe :frame members are connected together in the middle by a single inverted T-iron cross-brace 5 and, at each end, by three transversely and horizontally disposed angle iron crossbraces 8, l' and 8. The cross-braces E are Welded to the rails 3 and serve as supports for the ends of the box B and, together with the brace 5, to support the oor boards c. The cross-braces 8 are welded to the lower ends of the leg portions 4 and form feet therefor by which the individual box units may be supported upon a oor or other substantially level surface. The brace 1 is inverted, as compared with the braces 6 and 8, and is welded to the leg portions 4 at approximately onethird the distance between the side rails 3 and the lower ends of the legs. The members 'f serve not only as braces but also as means for supporting the base of one unit on the top edge of the box portion of another unit when the units are stacked or tiered, as indicated in dotted lines in v Fig. 1.
Each end of each of the braces 'I is notched, as indicated at S in Fig. 5, and the vertical wall 'la thereof is bent outwardly in the form of a lug I0 which is welded to the outside of one of the legs 4. The upper wall 'ib of each of the braces i extends outwardly beyond the plane of the lug l0 and is turned downwardly to form a stop I I which, when the units are tiered, as indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 7, lies adjacent the side wall s of a lower unit and prevents any material lateral displacement of the units. The walls "la of the members 'I likewise lie adjacent the outer face of the end walls e of a lower box and prevent any material endwise movement of one unit relative to the other.
As above indicated, the leg portions 4 are formed integral with the side rails 3. To enable the leg portions to be bent approximately ninety degrees to the side rails, a cut is made through the vertical wall of the rails and thereafter the horizontal wall is bent, in line with the cut as shown at :r in Fig. 2, thus forming substantially a right angle between the surfaces y and z.
The lower portion of the legs 4 are bent outwardly from the plane of the upper portion thereof as indicated most clearly at 11. in Figs.,1 and 11, thus facilitating the placing of the base of one unit on the top of the box portion of another unit in the tiering of Such units.
It is to be understood that the cutting and bending of the angle irons to form the downturned leg portions 4 is done prior to the beginning of the assembling of the component parts of the skid.
To strengthen and stiien the frame members I and 2, brace plates I2 are welded to the outside of those members in the region where the legs 4 join the side rails 3.
The form of the invention illustrated in Fig. 8 to 12 inclusive, differs from that above described principally in the construction of the box B per se. In this form the body of the box, comprising side walls t and end walls u, is made mainly of wood and preferably of hardwood plywood instead of sheet metal as in Figs. 1 to 7.
Aside from a combined side brace and box hold-down element, later to be described, the skid portion of the unit shown in Figs. 8-12 is the same as that shown in Figs. 1-7. To the extent that the two embodiments of the invention are alike the same reference characters have been applied thereto.
As shown in Figs. 8-12 the vertical corners of the box B are reinforced with sheet metal angle irons I3 secured to the box by rivets I4. The upper edge of the box is bound by an inverted U-shaped channel iron I5 upon which the angle irons 1 of another unit are adapted to rest when the units are tiered.
To strengthen the unit and prevent separation of the box from the skid, the unit is provided with two upstanding side brace and box holddown elements I6, having their inturned bottom ends l5 welded to the under side of the side rails 3. The elements I6 are secured to the side walls of the box, as by rivets I1, and have their upper ends bent over the top edge of the box and riveted thereto, as shown at I8 in Figs. 8 and 12.
It has been found that, in actual practice, stock boxes constructed in accordance with this invention are strong, durable, of relatively lightweight, and may be manufactured at a fraction of the cost of comparable stock boxes nowvon the market.
`When built in accordance with this invention, a stock box 36 inches long, 211/2 inches wide and 241/2 inches high, having a content of over ten cubic feet, has an approximate weight of only 65 pounds and will sustain a load of 6000 pounds. Thusthe boxes may be loaded with 1500 pounds each and safety stacked in tiers of four.
Likewise stock boxes as disclosed herein are adapted to be tiered with a minimum loss of space due to the fact that the base of one unit ts down over and in elect, telescopes with the top of the box of an underlying unit so that there is only about 31/2 inches between the top of the box of one unit and the bottom of the box of an overlying unit.
An important feature of this invention is the construction of the s kid portion of the unit. As shown particularly in Figs. 1, 2 and 8 the base, lor skid, S is of inverted iiattened U-shape in side elevation. This affords an open space or clearance, designated as C (Figs. 1 and 8), approximately 28 inches long and 12 inches high, between the legs 4 and between the side rails 3 of the lowermost skid and the floor, into which space may be inserted the lifting element of a lplatform truck when it is desired to move an entire tier ofboxes. The skid is also so constructed that a space, designated F, approximately 18 inches long and 3% inches high is afforded intermediate the legs 4 and between the angle iron cross-braces 6 and 1. This space affords clearance for insertion of the lifting element of a fork truck in the tiering of the units or when it is f desired to remove one or more of the units from the tier.
Having thus set forth the nature of the invention, what we claim herein is:
1. A base member for a stock box unit, comprising a fabricated metal framework including frontandrear frame members of substantially inverted U-shape in side view, each of said frame members including a box-supporting rail having, at-each end, a downturned and outwardly flared leg'portion'; upper cross' braces connecting said frame members at the upper ends of said leg portions, said upper cross braces serving as boxsupporting members; lower cross braces connecting said frame members at the extreme lower ends of said leg portions and servingas feet therefor; and reinforcing brace plates secured to said box supporting rails and leg portions.
2. A base member for a stock box unit having a receptacle, comprising a fabricated metal framework includingrontand rear frame members of substantially inverted U-shape in side view, each of said frame members including a box-supporting rail having, at each end, a downturned leg portion; upper and lower cross braces connecting said frame members at the upper and lower ends of said leg portions, the upper ones of said cross braces also serving as boxsupporting members; and a third cross brace connecting said side frames intermediate said upper and lower cross braces, said third cross brace also serving to support the base on the top of the receptacle of a similar unit.
3. A base member for a stock box unit having a receptacle, comprising a fabricated metal framework including front and rear frame members of substantially inverted U-shape in side view, each of said frame members including a box-supporting rail having, at each end, a downturned leg portion; upper and lower cross braces connecting said frame members at the upper and lower ends of said leg portions, the upper ones of said cross braces also serving as box-supporting members; and a third cross brace, of inverted L-shape in cross section and having downturned end portions, connecting said side frames intermediate said upper and lower cross braces, said third cross brace also serving to support the base on the top of the receptacle of a similar unit, the vertical walls and the downturned end portions of said third cross braces being adapted to engage the end and side walls, respectively, of the underlying receptacle to prevent material endwise or sidewise movements of said units relative to each other.
4. A base member for a stock box unit, comprising a fabricated metal framework including front and rear frame members of substantially inverted U-shape in side View, each of said frame members including a box-supporting rail having, at each end, a downturned leg portion; upper cross braces connecting said frame members at the upper ends of said leg portions; said upper cross braces serving as box-supporting members,
