CONTAINER HANDLE AND CLOSURE Filed Oct. 6, 1951 INVENTOR. HERMAN H. STRAUSS B United States Patent CONTAINER HANDLE AND CLOSURE Herman H. Strauss, St. Louis, Mo., assignor to Gaylord Container Corporation, St. Louis, Mo., a corporation of Maryland Application October 6, 1951, Serial No. 250,043
6 Claims. (Cl. 229-39) vide in a container, a combination closure with an automatic, secure locking means, and a braced, rigid handle carrying means.
Another object of this invention is to provide a container closure flap having a closure locking means secure in all directions and means for rigidly bracing a carrying handle.
A further object is to provide a combination closure lock which is easily, automatically and readily secured and disengaged, but not subject to accidental or unintentional unlocking.
A still further object of this invention is to provide a combination rigid carrying means and closure lock whereby any lifting force on the handle is transmitted directly to the container body independently of the closure lock, thus relieving the closure lock of stress.
Another object of this invention is to provide a combination container closing and rigid carrying means which is neat in appearance, sturdy and entirely constructed of one piece of material.
A further object is to provide a container which may be shipped in a knocked-down condition in which a com bination carrying and closure means may beset up to an operable state without the use of stitches, glue or other fastening means.
A still further object is to provide a braced carrying handle and secure closure lock which may be engaged and disengaged without the need of depressing the closure members into the container.
Another object is to provide a combination carrying means and closure for a container which is readily adapted for re-use.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art upon a full and complete understanding of the construction and operation of this device.
The invention comprises a combination container closure lock and carrying handle brace, the lock being in a partially slotted tongue foldably and angularly connected to a container end closure flap, the unslotted portion of the locking tongue being received in right angular gripping relation into a locking recess in the carrying handle portion, the carrying handle portion being foldably connected in an upright position to the inner 'margins of a pair of side closure flaps, the locking tongue rigidly bracing the carrying handle portion against movement in all directions and rigidly retaining the end closure flaps connected thereto into fiatwise relation with the upper surfaces of the side closure flaps.
In the figures following, which form a part of the specification, like numerals refer to like parts wherever they are shown.
Fig. 1 is a plan view of a blank embodying a preferred form of this invention,
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a fabricated container embodying a preferred form of this invention, and
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary side view of a portion of a handle assembly embodying this invention.
In the embodiment of this invention illustrated by the blank shown in Fig. 1, side panels 1 and end panels 2 are defined at their upper margins by top scores 3 and at their bottom margins by bottom scores 4. End scores 5 define the side margins of the end panels 1 and the side panels 2. The bottom scores 4 also define the inner margins of the side panel bottom flaps 6 and the end panel bottom flaps 7. Bottom slots 8 define the inside F side edges of the bottom flaps 6 and 7. The portions of the top scores 3 adjacent the upper margin of the side walls 1, also define the lower margin of side panel top flaps 9. The side panel top flaps 9 are defined on their upper edge by handle scores 10 which also define the lower margin of the handle assembly consisting of a handle portion 11, handle web 12 and a handle flange 13. The portions of the top scores 3 adjacent to the upper margin of the end panels 2 also define the lower margins of end panel top flaps 14. The top panel end flaps 14 are provided with central longitudinal slots 15.
The upper end edge of the top panel end flaps is defined by a locking score 16 which in turn defines the inner edge of a locking tongue 17. The locking tongue 17 is conveniently divided into a lower slotted portion 18 and an upper unslotted portion 19. The lower portion 18 is provided with a bracing slot 20 which is coextensive with the central longitudinal slots 15. In the embodiment of the invention illustrated, the bracing slot 20 extends sub stantially midway the length of the locking tongue 17, although any suitable length slot may be used. The end edges of the handle portions 11 are cut to define a locking recess 21 defined by an upper edge 22, a side edge 23 and a lower edge 24.
The container embodying this invention may be assembled in any suitable manner, however, a preferred method is to fold the side panels 1 and end panels 2 to form a right angular enclosure. The abutting free vertical edges of the side panel 1 and the end panel 2 are then sealed together with tape or any other suitable means. The end panel bottom flaps 7 are folded inwardly along the bottom scores 4 to a position at substantially right angles to the end panels 2. The side panel bottom flaps 6 are folded inwardly along the bottom scores 4 and sealed by glue or other means in a position flatwise against the outer faces of the previously positioned end panel bottom flaps 7. The handle portion 11, the handle web 12, and the handle flange 13 are folded upwardly along the handle scores 10 at substantially right angles to the side panel top flaps 9. The side panel top fiaps 9 are folded inwardly along the top scores 3 to a position at substantially right angles to the side panels 1. The width of each side panel top flap 9 is such that the inner margins defined by the handle scores 10 meet substantially in edgewise abutting relation. It is therefore evident that the handle assemblies 11, 12 and 13 are in flatwise substantially registering relation to each other.
The locking tongue 17 is folded along the locking score 16 to a position in substantially right angular" relation to the end panel top flaps 14. The end panel top flaps 14 are bent inwardly along the top scores 3 to a position fiatwise against the upper face of the previously positioned side panel top flaps 9. In this position, the side edges of the central longitudinal slot 15 embrace the lower margin of the handle flange 13. The locking tongue 17 is pivoted inwardly along the locking score 16 until the upper unslotted portion 19 is received by the locking recess 21. In this position, the upper unslotted portion 19 is in substantially right angular contact with the side edge 23 of the locking recess. The outer free edge of the locking tongue 17 is snugly engaged by the upper edge 22 while the outer edge of. the bracing slotZll-issnugly engaged; by
the lower edge 24 of the locking recess, The. container is,now ready for use.
The locking, tongue 17 is sodimensioned that the distance fromthe outer free edge to.-the locking score 16 is substantially equal to the distance from the upper edge 22. of the. locking recessv to. the handle score 10. With the above predetermined critical dimensions so made, the upper. edge 22 of: the lockingrecesst forces; the locking tongue 17 downward snugly against the. upper face of the side panel top flaps 9.. The handle assembly. is. thus rigidly maintained in position in all? directionsand,
the end panel top flaps 1.4- and the side panel; top flaps 9' are snugly maintained in rightangular relation to the side and end panels 1 and. 2. of the container, thereby providing a tight and effective closure. Any upwardliftingforce which is transmitted through the. handle portion 11: must be transmitted to the body portion of the container outwardly along the handle assembly,. 1nderneath; the end panel top flaps 14, and to the upper marginrof: the end panel 2 and downwardly into the body: portion. There, is nolifting strain on the locking recess 2.0% when the container is lifted by the handle. It is. apparent that: the more snugly the end panel top flaps 14. are held against the side panel top flaps 9, the more. secure: will be the. lifting handle and the container closure.
The handle assembly and the container closure.- may be unsecured simply by swinging the locking; tongue 17 outwardly along the locking score 16-. untiltlie outer free edge thereof is clear ofthe upper edge 22 of the locking. recess 21". The locking tongue 17 is lifted. upwardly. and
outwardly; This also swings the end panel topi flap. 14
reversing the above procedure, the container maybe reused again.
