Patented June i6, 1953 UNI-TED stares PATENT o-F'Flce Louis iF; :Presseny I J., 'assigner toy -.(i`clancsev Corporationi'of America, New York, N. Y., a corporation of Delaware Application Jannary'zs, 1950,'seriaI`Nn-'14ogs76 sol-aims. (o1. zoe-ts) `This invention relates to lcartons and reiates .moreparticularly tocartonsfor storingand shipping packages of yarn. l The bulk ofthe yarn produced in Athetextile .industry is wound into packages, such as bobbins,
cones, cheeses and the like. During the storing and shipping ofthese yarn packages, they must -be prevented from rubbing `against,each other or. against the walls of thecarton in which they are contained,l since such rubbing would 'damage at least the `outer layers of yarnon said packages. It has been` the practice, heretofore, to `wrap the yarn. packages individually inpwaxe'd paper' and' to store and ship the wrapped yarn 'packages in `cartons including means, such as `apeituretiinserts, l'i'or engagingthe yarn pack- -ages so kas to prevent" movement thereof and' damage to the yarn wound thereon. However, 'the -wrapping of lthe individual fyarn packages, .and 'the cartons y.previously `employed-have Abeen relatively expensive, `thereby increasing vthe handling costs in storing and shipping the yarn packages.. In addition, 'the cartonshave failed to providefadequatefsuppoit'forthe yarn packages with the `result thatV yarnV damage frequently occurredparticularly when the loaded cartons were `subjected toshocks during handling or shipping. Y
It is an'important objectlofthi's invention` to provide a'cartonfor storing- Vvand shipping packages 'of -yarn which vwill be free from the vforegoing lan-dl Aother v disadvantages 'of the cartons hitherto vemployed forl the purpose,v and which will be Yespecially simple in vccmstruction and efviicient in use. Y A
Afurther object of this invention is the provision of a carton for storing and shipping packages di yarn which will engage and support said packages so as to avoid relative movement thereof and damage tothe yarn wound thereon.
Other` objects of this inventnftogether with certain details of construction and combination .of-parts, will be apparent Yfrom the following vdetailed description and' claims.v
A preferred embodiment of thisinventionof Aa carton `forstoring and shippingrcheeses of yarn will now be described with particular reference to the accompanying drawing wherein:
Fig. 1 is a fragmentary perspective View of the carton showing the arrangement of the packages of yarn therein,
Fig. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the tting that engages the packages of yarn,
Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken on the line 3-3 in Fig. 1 in the direction of the arrows showand* projecting'pastbth'surfaces of the shelves ing'tiie manner in which the 'packages :oi'yarn are engagedand Y Fig.. 4-is an exploded perspective view 'of a fitting 'ofi modified construction.
vReferring now tothe drawing, the reference lninneral II designates generally the protective cover lof a carton which may be formed Afrom corrugated board, cardboard or lother suitable material and in which is contained a plurality of yarnfpackages, such as `cheeses .I2 comprising cores I3 of tubularshape having yarn I4 wound thereon.v The cheeses I2 are arranged in superposed layers I5, IG and II, each of which layers is supported on a shelf `I8. A plurality of lregularly disposed'pairs of elongated apertures I9 extend throughthe shelf I8 with the longer dimensions oi' the apertures being in line one with the other. Also extending through-the shelf I8 are a plurality of regularly disposed pairs of apertures 2| fthat have their longer dimension in line one with the other and at an angle, preferably at a right angle, 'tofth'e longer dimension ofthe apertures .'IS. The pai-rs of apertures I9 aridlif iaife arranged iso that ja 'line joining the apertures 'i9 would iliev midway between `the apertures 2I anda line joining ythe apertures 2I 'would lie-midway Vbetween the apertures I9,V and so"that"tlieir outer edges'are spaced aparta' distance fappifoximatelyl equal to the internal diameterof the'cores I3. y
-Po'sitionediin theipairs-of apertures I9 and 2| |186 are-"iiat, U-'shap'edttinga indicatedY generally by referencenumeral 22, each comprising ar vpair of'legsl23 iinedz'by abridge 24. The legs 2'3"'are-somewhat wider than the longer-*dimension of the apertures',`I'9` and 2I and are rounded attheir forward endsfo'r easy insertion into said apertures. The legs 23 'are provided Vat their base with notches 25v to reduce'theirwidth toless thanthat vofthe apertures I9 andfZI so that the ttings will lock into place whenthey areposi- Y tio'ned finvsaid apertures. The vfittings' 22" are assembled on'the shelves I8 with the legs 23 of theftting inthe apertures I9' extending in a di- Viection 1 opposite to that' of the legs 23o/f the tting lin the apertures `2I. -The shelves'l and ttings 22 may be formed from cardboard, cor
rugated board, plastic or other terial. y
In packing the carton of my invention, the cheeses I2 are arranged so that the fittings 22, or 25 and 27 enter into and engage snugly the cores I3 thereby to hold the cheeses against relative movement and damage to the yarn thereon. Because of the firmness with which the cheeses I2 are held against relative movement by the fittings 22, or 26 and 2l, the individual wrapping of the cheeses may be dispensed with completely.
It is to be understood that the foregoing detailed description is given merely by way of illustration and that many variations may be made therein .Without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having described my invention, what I desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A container for yarn comprising a carton, layers of yarn packages in said carton, a plurality of apertured shelves arranged in said carton in parallel relationship to each other and each supporting a layer of yarn packages, and a :fitting received in the apertures of said shelves, said ntting comprising a plurality of unitary .members received in the apertures of said shelves to form crisscross extensions protruding from both surfaces of said shelves engaging said yarn packages and preventing relative movement thereof.
2. A container for yarn comprising a carton, layers of yarn packages in said carton, a plurality of apertured shelves arranged in said carton vin parallel relationship to each other and each supporting a layer of yarn packages, and a fitting received in the apertures of said shelves, said fitting comprising a plurality of U-shaped, flat unitary members received in the apertures of said shelves to form crisscross extensions protruding from both surfaces of said shelves engaging said yarn packages and preventing relative movement thereof.
3. A carton in accordance with claim lvvherein the unitary members have means for locking the same in position on said shelves.
4. A carton in accordance With claim l wherein the unitary members have a plurality of notches for locking the same in position on said shelves.
5. A container for yarn comprising a carton, layers of yarn packages in said carton, a plurality of shelves arranged in said carton in parallel relationship to each other and supporting a layer of yarn packages, a plurality of regularly spaced apertures in said shelves, and a fitting received in the apertures of said shelves, said fitting com- Il U prising a plurality of unitary members received in the apertures of said shelves to form crisscross extensions protruding from both surfaces of said shelves engaging said yarn packages and preventing relative movement thereof.
6. A container for yarn comprising a carton, layers of yarn packages in said carton, a plurality of shelves arranged in saidcarton in parallel relationship to each other and each supporting a layer of yarn packages, a plurality of groups of regularly spaced apertures in said shelves, and a iitting received in each of the groups of apertures in said shelves, each of said fittings comprising a plurality of unitary members received in the apertures of said shelves to form crisscrossextensions protruding from both surfaces of said shelves engaging said yarn packages and preventing relative movement thereof.
'7. A container for yarn comprising a carton, packages of yarn arranged in superposed layers in said carton, shelves supporting said layers, pairs of elongated regularly disposed apertures extending through said shelves, and fittings having a pair of legs positioned in said pairs of apertures and extending past both surfaces of said shelves and engaging said packages of yarn to prevent relative movement thereof, said legs being Wider than the apertures in which they are positioned and being notched at their base to reduce their widths so that they'will lock into place when they are positioned in said apertures.
8. A container for yarn comprising a carton, packages of yarn arranged in superposed layers in said carton, shelves supporting said layers, pairs of elongated regularly disposed apertures extending through vsaid shelves having their longer dimensions in line one with the other, other pairs of elongated regularly disposed apertures extending throughV said shelves having their longer dimensions in line one with the other and having their longer dimensions at right angles to the longer dimensions of the first pairs of apertures, the pairs of apertures being arranged so that a line joining one pair of apertures lies midway between the other pair of apertures, and flat U-shaped ttings having pairs of legs positioned in said apertures and extending past both surfaces of said shelves and engaging said packages of yarn to prevent relative movement thereof, the legs Aof the tting positioned in one pair of apertures extending in `a direction opposite to the legs of the fitting positioned in the other pair of apertures, said legs being Wider than -theapertures in which they are lpositioned and kbeing notched at their base to reduce their width so that they will lock into place when they are positioned in said p airs of apertures.
