' CARTON HOLDER Filed April 16, 1954 INVENTOR. EDWARD N.WAC neaageau United States Patent() 2,810,502 CARTON HOLDER Edward N. Wackerhagen, Racine, Wis assignor to Sheridan Products Inc., Racine, Wis., a corporation of Wiscousin Application April 16, 1954, Serial No. 423,664
2 Claims, (Cl. 224-45) This invention relates to a holder for a liquid holding carton. 7
It has become the usual practice to furnish milk, for example, in half gallon cartons made of wax or parafiin impregnated paper. These cartons are relatively heavy and are-easily deformed when grasped and are slippery and difiicult to hold. It frequently happens that when milk is being poured from the carton that the grip of the users hands on the carton deforms the carton sufliciently so that it slips from the hand and milk is spilled .Various attempts have been made to provide holders for these liquid holding cartons but they have not been wholly successful because as a rule they take up too much room and are not capable of being stored in a small space, for example, the usual drawer of a kitchen cabinet. Also it is diflicult to ship or package these holders as they are bulky and cannot be folded or otherwise compacted and do not lend themselves to ready packaging.
This invention is designed to overcome the above noted defects and objects of this invention are to provide a holder for cartons of the above type which will hereinafter be referred to as liquid cartons which is so constructed that it may be storedin a flat condition in a drawer of a kitchen cabinet and which when in stored condition takes up very little room indeed.
Further objects are to provide a holder for a liquid carton which is so made that it may be readily positioned on the carton and when in use provides a firm support for the carton with a handle located at a convenient point for readily pouring of milk or other liquid from the carton.
In greater detail, objects of this invention are to provide a liquid holding carton which may be very cheaply made from strap material, for example, strap metal and which is provided with an encircling member conforming to the cross sectional contour of the carton and is arranged to be slipped downwardly over the carton in encircling relation thereto, and in which a U-shaped member is pivotally attached to the encircling member and is adapted to project outwardly in the same plane as the encircling member for storage purposes and is further adapted to be rocked downwardly so that the transverse portion of the U-shaped member is located below the carton and thus forms a supporting member for the carton, a handle being provided on the U-shaped member opposite the pouring portion of the carton.
An embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a view of the carton holder in position on the carton, the carton being shown in imaginary lines.
Figure 2 shows the position of the parts while the encircling member is being positioned on the carton and shows the manner in which the encircling member is slipped downwardly over the carton.
Figure 3 shows an intermediate position in which the supporting member is rocked downwardly below the carton.
ice
Figure 4 shows the position of the parts when read 1 for storage.
a pair of arms 3, 3 pivoted as indicated at 4, 4 to the encircling member 1 and which is provided with a transverse portion indicated generally by the reference character 5. This transverse portion is slightly inset to accommodate a revolubly mounted steadying member or foot 6 which is pivoted to the transverse portion as indicated at 7 and normally lies in the same plane with the arms 3, 3 and the encircling member 1. A handle 8 is attached to one of the 'U-shaped members, preferably the U-shaped member which is positioned opposite the pouring portion .9 of the carton 10 as shown in Figure 1. This handle may be of strap metal or of other material or may be covered with a suitable plastic as shown in the drawings particularly in Figure 4, the plastic being shown partly broken away in such figure.
Normally the holder is in the flat condition shown in Figure 4 and is stored in the kitchen cabinet drawer, for instance. When it is desired to use the holder, the encircling member is slipped down over the carton as shown in Figure 2 with the U-shaped member 2 projecting laterally from the carton. Thereafter, the carton is slightly raised from the support on which it was resting and the U-shaped member 2 is rocked downwardly so that its transverse portion 5 extends below the carton. Thereafter, the holder is slipped upwardly to the position shown in Figure 1, the bracing or steadying foot 6 being turned transversely to the transverse portion 5 of the U-shaped member.
After the carton has been emptied the holder is removed from the carton by rocking the U-shaped member outwardly to the position shown in Figure 2 and thereafter slipping the encircling member 1 upwardly from the carton, the foot 6 being rocked into alignment with the transverse portion 5 of the U-shaped member 2. The holder then has all of its parts lying in the same plane and may be readily stored and requires a minimum of room.
It will be seen that a very simple type of carton holder has been provided which is adapted to holdliquid cartons although the liquid cartons may be readily deformed when grasped.
It will be seen further that the holder may be very cheaply manufactured from strap metal or other suitable material.
Although this invention has been described in considerable detail, it is to be understood that such description is intended as illustrative rather than limiting, as the invention may be variously embodied and is to be interpreted as claimed.
I claim:
1. The combination of a holder and a deformable liquid holding carton having a portion from which liquid may be poured, said holder comprising an encircling member arranged to encircle the carton adjacent its upper portion after being passed downwardly over the cart-on, a U-shaped supporting member having its arms pivoted to said encircling member and arranged to project laterally outwardly from said carton while said encircling member is being slipped downwardly over said carton and to be rocked downwardly with the transverse portion of said U-shaped member below the bottom of said carton to support said carton and with one of the arms of said U-shaped member located on the side of said carton op- Patented Oct. 22, 1957 3 posite the pouring portion, a handle secured to the last mentioned arm of said U-shaped supporting member, the encircling member and the U-shaped supporting member being formed of strap material and being arranged-to be rocked into a common plane, whereby said holder maybe readily packaged or. stored, and a strap member pivoted intermediate-its ends to the transverse'portionofsaid U-shaped supporting memberand arranged to be selectively turned crossways of said transverse portion or in alignment therewith.
2. The combination of a deformable liquid holding carton of rectangular cross section having a portion from which liquid may be poured; a holder for said carton, said holder comprising a rectangular encircling member arranged to encircle the carton adjacent its upper portion after being passed downwardly over the carton, a U-shaped supporting member having its arms pivoted to opposite sides of said encircling member adjacent the center of the respective sides and arranged to project laterally outwardly from said 'carton while said encircling member is being slipped downwardly over said carton and to be rocked downwardly with the transverse portion of said U-shaped member below the bottom of said carton to support said carton and with one of the arms of said U-shaped member located on the side of the carton opposite the pouring p0rti-on, and a handle secured to said last mentioned arm, whereby said handle may be grasped and liquid poured from said carton, said holder being foldable when removed from. said carton with the U-shaped member rocked into the plane of the encircling member, whereby the encirclingjmember, the U-shaped member and the handle all lie in the same plane with no portion projecting laterally, beyond said plane.
