M 9, 1954 v A. D'AMBROSIO METHOD OF MAKING COMPACT HOLDERS Filed Feb. 10, 1951 m S m MB M N. 0 Y m o H T N A HIS ATTORNEYS.
Patented Mar. 9, I954 ITED if.
FEET OFFICE 3 Claims.
This invention relates to a method for making a holder for use in a pocketbook or purse to hold a compact, vanity case or other similar article.
Compact holders of the type made heretofore usually consist of a single piece of cardboard or the like which is covered on its interior and exterior surfaces with a layer of an ornamental fabric, such as velvet, satin or the like. The blank from which the container is formed is covered with the layers of the fabric and then folded. The several flaps, sides and the like, are cemented together to form a box-like article.
The method of assembly and the design of the article make it necessary, after the folding and cementing operations, to apply pieces of the fabric to the article to cover exposed edges of the fabric. This has required rather careful fitting and considerable manual dexterity to properly match up the fabric, especially when the fabric has a bold pattern in it.
The present invention relates to an improved method of making articles of the type referred to above, wherein the method of assembly is greatly simplified and the skill required to match and apply the fabric is reduced to a minimum. Because of the nature of the completed article, lighter weight supporting blanks may be used for the article, and stronger, more durable and better appearing articles nevertheless result therefrom.
For an understanding of the present invention, reference may be had to the following description and the accompanying drawings in which:
Fig. 1 is a top plan view of a typical article,
such as a compact holder, embodying and made in accordance With the present invention;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of a blank used in the manufacture of the compact holder, this blank corresponding to the interior portion or shell of the holder;
Fig. 3 is a plan view of a blank corresponding to the exterior shell of the holder;
Fig. 4 is a view in section taken on line li of Fig. 1 showing the folded blanks and their surface coverings in their assembled relation; and
5 is a view in section taken on line 55 of The article chosen for illustration of the invention consists of a box-like article it having a narrow end wall II, narrow side walls l2 and 3 and top and bottom walls I l and E5 of considerably greater area. The holder corresponds in shape generally to a square powder compact C. The top wall I4 has a notch I6 therein through which the compact C, shown in dotted lines, can
2 be gripped for removal from the open end ll of the holder. The free edges of the top and bottom walls I4 and I5 may be suitably curved for ornamental purposes, if desired.
Attached to the back wall or end II of the holder is a loop I8 formed of fabric to receive a lipstick.
Articles of the type described above are provided with an inner lining I9 and an exterior covering of an ornamental fabric such as silk, satin, velvet, brocade, or the like to lend an attractive appearance to the finished article.
In accordance with the present invention, the holder I0 is formed of two blanks 2| and 22 of heavy paper or thin cardboard. The blank 2| forms the inner lining or shell of the completed holder It while the blank 22 forms the outer shell of the holder I 9. The blank 2| has a panel 23 corresponding in shape to the bottom surface I5 of the holder and an opposite end panel 24 corresponding generally in shape to the top surface it of the holder. The panel 24 is notched at 25 to correspond to the opening IS in the top of the holder. Between the panels 23 and 24 is a web portion 26 corresponding to the end II of the holder. The panel 24 also has laterally extending flaps 2! and 28 which correspond to the sides 52 and I3 of the holder but are of somewhat greater width than these sides. The blank 2| is covered on one side with the fabric I9, shown in dotted lines, and the fabric is cemented to the blank with its edges folded around the edges of the blank and cemented to the opposite surface of the blank from that coveredby the fabric. The blank is then folded on the fold lines 29 and 29a. to form the end panel 26 and the top and bottom of the holder. The side flaps 21 and 28 are folded on the fold lines 3| and 32 and their edges are also folded inwardly on the fold lines 33' and 3t and cemented to the adjacent edges of the panel 23. The blank M is folded so that the fabric I9 is disposed inside the folded blank 2|, as shown in Fig. 4.
The blank 22 is similar to the blank 2i except that it is somewhat larger so that when it is folded, the folded blank 2| can be inserted inside the folded blank 22. The blank 22, as illustrated, has the top and bottom panels 35 and 38, the notch 31 corresponding to the opening or notch it in the completed holder and it also has the side panel flaps 38 and 38 which may be on the lateral edges of the panel 36. The panels 38 and 39 may, however, project laterally from the side edges of the top panel 35, if desired.
The fabric covering 20, shown in dotted lines in Fig. 3, is cemented to the outside of the blank and the edges of the fabric are turned over and cemented to the opposite side of the blank. The blank 22 is then folded on the fold lines 40 and 4| to form the top, bottom and end connecting panel of the holder and folded on the fold lines 42 and 43 to form the side panels of the holder. The edges 44 and 45 of the panels 38 and 39 are folded inwardly under the top panel 35 and cemented in position.
At this stage of the process, two shells are formed. The smaller shell has its interior lined with the ornamental fabric l9 and the larger shell has its exterior covered with the fabric 20. The exterior surfaces of the smaller shell formed from the blank 2! are then coated with cement or glue and this shell is inserted within the shell formed from the blank 22 to complete the holder. While the shells may be formed separately as described above, and the smaller shell inserted within the larger shell it is more practical to fold the inner lined blank over a block or die and then fold the outer covered blank over the inner shell while the latter is still supported on the die. The surface of the inner shell is coated with adhesive before the outer shell blank with its fabric covering is folded over it. When the adhesive is set the completed article is removed from the die. The resulting article consists of a pair of telescoped shells one having an interior lining and the other an exterior covering. The article does not have any exposed fabric edges for the reason that these edges are located between the shells and securely cemented thereto. At this stage, if desired, the loop l8 can be cemented to or stitched or otherwise connected to the end panel I l of the complete holder.
From the preceding description it will be apparent that the above-described method lends itself to mass production of holders of the type described and also to other box-like articles having interior linings and exterior coverings of fabric, paper or other flexible sheet material. The blanks can be stamped out in quantity as can the fabric or other coverings therefor and the cementing and folding operations can be accomplished easily by hand or with folding and gluing machinery. It is unnecessary to fit small panels of fabric in the side edges of the holder, thereby doing away with the need for skilled labor to match fabric patterns and fit the parts together. The resulting article is considerably more sturdy than prior holders of the type referred to inasmuch as the multilayer or multishell construction imparts rigidity to all parts of the completed article.
It will be understood, of course, that the arrangement of the several panels of the device and the shape or design of the top and bottom panels are susceptible to considerable modification and the method is adapted to other articles than the compact holder described herein. Therefore, the example of the invention described herein should be considered as illustrative and not as limiting the scope of the following claims.
I claim:
1. A method of making a container comprising forming a first blank of paper having aligned portions corresponding to opposite ides of the container and an interposed section corresponding to an end of the container, one of said side portions having laterally directed tabs thereon corresponding to two other sides of the container, cementing a layer of flexible sheet material to one surface of said blank, folding the sheet material around the edges of said blank and securing the edges of the sheet material to the other surface of the blank, folding the blank with the sheet material thereon into a box-like shell having one open end and the sheet material lining the interior thereof, forming a second blank similar to and larger than the first blank, securing a layer of flexible sheet material to one surface of the second blank and securing the edges of the sheet material to the opposite surface of the second blank, folding the second blank into a second box-like shell having one open end and the sheet material covering the outside thereof, and securing the shells together in telescopic relation with their open ends facing in the same direction.
2. The method set forth in claim 1 comprising the steps of forming a notch in one end of one of said ide portions, and forming said laterally directed tabs on opposite sides of one of said side portions.
3. The method set forth in claim 1 comprising the steps of forming a notch in one of said side portions which extends inwardly from one end and lengthwise thereof partially across aid one of said side portions, forming said laterally directed tabs on the opposite edges of the side portion of one of the blanks having the notch therein, and forming said laterally directed tabs on the opposite edges of the other of the side portions of the other blank.
