Definitions

  • This invention relates to containers, and more particularly to a container for a cartridge enclosing spools on which an inked ribbon is wound.
  • An object of this invention is to provide an improved container.
  • Another object is to provide a container for a cartridge enclosing spools upon which an inked ribbon is wound, the ribbon extending between the spools through slots in the side of the cartridge, and the spools being freely rotatable on axes which are in alignment with openings in the cartridge.
  • Still another object is to provide a container having means for holding a ribbon cartridge in a position with clearance between it and the walls of the container, and also having means for preventing rotation of spools within the cartridge.
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of an improved container in which a ribbon cartridge is enclosed.
  • FIG. 2 is a vertical sectional view taken on the plane of the line 22 in FIG. 1.
  • an improved container made of a transparent plastic-like material. If desired, it could be made as well from an opaque material which is capable of being formed in the manner shown.
  • the main body of the container comprises a top wall 2 having side walls 3 formed integral therewith.
  • a flange 4 is formed integral with the lower edge of the side walls and extends outwardly from the latter in a horizontal plane at both its ends and sides. The edges of the flange along the sides of the container are folded under at 5, as shown in FIG. 2, to form grooves in which the edges of a plate 6 may be slidably received for closing the bottom of the container.
  • the cartridge 8 to be enclosed within the container has, as shown in FIG. 2, a top wall 9, a bottom wall 10, and a side wall 11 joined at their edges to form a single 3,074,545 Patented Jan. 22, 1963 enclosed chamber 12.
  • a top wall 9, a bottom wall 10, and a side wall 11 joined at their edges to form a single 3,074,545 Patented Jan. 22, 1963 enclosed chamber 12.
  • spools 13 Arranged within the chamber are two spools 13 which are supported for rotation on axes extending perpendicular to the top and bottom walls.
  • An opening 16 extends axially through each of the spools and presents opposite flat surfaces which may be engaged by a driving member for eflecting rotation.
  • Formed in the top and bottom walls of the cartridge are openings 17 and 18 in axial alignment with the opening 16.
  • a reduced portion 20 which is rotatably received within the opening 18.
  • An inked ribbon 21 is wound at one end on one of the spools 13 and then extends through a slot in the side wall at one end of the cartridge. It passes along one side of the cartridge, as shown in FIG. 1, and then enters a slot in the side wall at the opposite end of the cartridge to be wound on the other spool 13.
  • a driving spindle extends through one or both of the openings 17 and 18 to engage each of the spools through the sides of the opening 16.
  • each projecting portion is formed to fit snugly within the opening 17 for holding the cartridge against transverse movements relative to the container, and a lower reduced part 25 of each projecting portion is received within the opening 16 for holding the spool 13.
  • the projecting part 25 is rectangular in cross section so it acts on the fiat surfaces at opposite sides of the opening 16 for holding the spool both against rotation and transverse movements.
