Definitions

  • a starch tray particularly for confectionery manufacture comprising a rectangular plywood floor having its lateral portions curved upwardly to form side walls, the ends of the tray being closed by end walls of timber panels secured to the floor and the inner face of the side walls, feet under the corners of the tray floor, and a timber moulding having a concave face and a squared edge fastened beneath each side wall to provide an upright outer surface therefor.
  • This invention relates to starch trays. It particularly relates to trays for confectionery manufacture and more particularly to such trays used with automatic machinery.
  • the invention provides a starch tray comprising a rectangular plywood floor, a pair of opposite side walls formed by arcuately bending the longitudinal edge portions of the plywood floor, opposite end walls formed by panels secured to end portions of the inner face of the floor and side walls, a length of square edged concave moulding positioned beneath the outer face of the arcuate side walls, supporting feet beneath the end walls, and dowels passing through the floor and into the supporting feet and the end walls.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a starch tray constructed according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevation thereof
  • FIG. 3 is a fragmentary end elevation to an enlarged scale
  • FIG. 4 is a fragmentary exploded perspective view to an enlarged scale of the component parts of the star-ch tray.
  • the starch tray 5 consists of a rectangular plywood fioor 6 curved along its opposite longitudinal edge portions to form a pair of arcuately bent confronting side Walls 7.
  • the arcuate bend 8 in the floor 6 is made through approximately
  • the two open ends of the starch tray 5 are enclosed by opposite end walls composed of timber panels 9 radiused at their outer lower corners 10 to match the internal shape 8 of the side walls 7.
  • the end wall panels 9 are rested upon the floor 6 and between the ends of the side walls 7 and glued in position.
  • the upper rims of the four walls 7 and 9 of the tray are coplanar.
  • the outer face of the floor 6 in the region of the curved side walls 8 possesses a convex surface at the precise position where registering contact is made with the tray 5 for its automatic positioning and advancement through the machinery (not shown).
  • a convex surface is unsuited for efiicient registration, and to overcome this fiaw a length of square edged moulding 11 concavely recessed along its length is placed in contact with the convex surface 8A extending along the lower side of each side wall 7 of the tray 5.
  • Each length of moulding 11 is glued in position so that its square edge 12 forms an outside corner for its respective side wall 7.
  • Timber blocks are placed in each corner of the tray 5 beneath its fioor 6 and are glued thereto to form supporting feet 13.
  • Each supporting foot 13 has one of its ends 15 extending beneath the respective end of one of the two mouldings 11 to provide for additional support thereof.
  • a horizontal dowel plug 14 may be inserted through the upright face of each end of each moulding 11 and through the upright wall 7 into the end of the end panel 9.
  • a starch tray comprising a rectangular plywood floor, a pair of opposite side walls formed by arcuately bending the longitudinal edge portions of the plywood floor, opposite end walls formed by panels secured to end portions of the inner face of the floor and side walls, a length of square edged concave moulding positioned beneath the outer face of the arcuate side walls, supporting feet beneath the end walls, and dowels passing through the floor and into the supporting feet and the end walls.
  • a starch tray comprising a rectangular plywood floor, a pair of opposite side walls integral with the floor and connected thereto by a curved bend having an outer convex surface, a timber panel bridging the ends of the side walls at each end of the floor and having a radiused corner at each of its ends to mate with the inner surface of a respective curved bend to form an end wall, square edged concave moulding positioned with its concave surface against the convex surface of each curved bend and its square edge forming a sharp corner beneath each side wall, a supporting foot beneath each end portion of each end wall and extending beneath the end of the respective moulding, and dowels passing through the floor and into the end walls and the supporting feet.
  • a starch tray as claimed in claim 4 comprising also a dowel passing through each moulding and respective side wall into the end of each end wall.
