FOLDABLE CARTON AND BLANK WITH PLEATED CORNER Nov. 4, 1969 Filed Feb. 26, 1968 INVENTOR Norman J Asman ATTORNEY United States Patent O ice 3,476,304 FOLDABLE CARTON AND BLANK WITH PLEATED CORNER Norman John Asman, Appleton, Wis., assignor to American Can Company, New York, N.Y., a corporation of New Jersey Filed Feb. 26, 1968, Ser. No. 708,187 Int. Cl. B65d /24 U.S. Cl. 22931 9 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention pertains to foldable carton blanks and to cartons erected from such blanks. In particular, the invention pertains to an improved carton with an attractive one-piece continuous and reinforced corner construction, and to a carton blank from which such a carton can be erected.
Cartons having bottom and side panels variously formed of one uncut piece of material are well known, the corners being constructed with a plurality of triangular panels folded in diverse ways. See, for instance, U.S. patents such as Hall 1,271,033, Roehrl 2,386,062, Lange 2,643,- 812, and Doll et a1. 3,316,102. The carton corners illustrated in those patents are unduly complex in shape or in manner of folding as compared with the present invention. In addition, these prior art structures provide unequal reinforcement of the two side panels connected by the corner, thereby adding to the difficulty of manufacture. It is therefore highly desirable to produce a onepiece essentially uncut carton blank which can be simply folded into an attractive display-type carton having strengthened and sloped corners providing equal reinforcement to all side panels.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION These prior art disadvantages are overcome by the novel carton blank of the present invention. In particular, a carton blank is provided having a web or bridge corner comprising only four essentially triangular panel portions hingedly connected to one another and to the adjacent side panels. A carton is constructed from the carton blank by forming two adjacent inwardly extending pleats from the four corner panels, each pleat being adhesively secured to its adjacent side panel. The pleats are shaped to cause the abutment of adjacent side edges of adjacent side panels, which with the underlying attachment of the hinge-connected pleats, forms an exceptionally strong, attractive and yet mechanically simple joint.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION Reference is made to the drawings for a more detailed description of the invention in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment of the carton of this invention;
FIG. 2 is a side section of the carton taken along line 2--2 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary perspective view of a carton blank corner shown partly erected;
3,476,304 Patented Nov. 4, 1969 FIG. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary view of a corner of the carton blank of FIG. 5; and
FIG. 5 is a plan view of one embodiment of a carton blank of this invention.
Referring now to the drawings, a carton 10 is shown having a rectangular bottom panel 12 to which are hingedly connected side panels 14, 16, 18 and 20 of trapezoidal configuration. Lateral folded edges 22 of adjacent side panels abut one another as seen in FIG. 1 and incline upwardly and inwardly. As an example of use, such a carton may receive merchandise therein fully occupying the available opening overlying bottom panel 12, and be overwrapped with transparent film. Thus the contents are attractively displayed, wherein the inclined sides provide a picture frame appearance.
With further respect to theinstant carton structure, the same includes web-like bridge panels 24 linking adjacent side panels between edges 22. Each bridge panel 24 comprises four adjacent hingedly connected corner panel portions 26, 28, 30 and 32 separated from one another by linear fold lines 34, 36 and 38. These fold lines commonly intersect along with the fold lines at side edges 22 at corner 40 of bottom panel 12.
In erecting carton 10, corner panel portions 26 and 28 (and similarly 30 and 32) are brought into face-toface contact with one another to form a corner pleat, as clearly seen in FIG. 3. This folding action causes folded side edges 22 of adjacent side panels to be brought into abutting relationship thereby to form a trim, strong corner. To further strengthen the corner assembly, the pleat formed from corner panel portions 26 and 28 may be brought into and held securely in face-to-face contact with its adjacent side panel as by means of adhesive 46 (FIG. 2). Pleats 30, 32 can similarly be brought into contact with side panel 18.
The carton blank 42 is shown in more detail in FIG. 5 and the enlarged single corner view of FIG. 4. Outside edge 44 of corner panel portions 28 and 30 is contoured so as to not protrude into the display opening of the erected carton. The angles made by the edges or fold lines of all of the panels or panel portions which intersect corner 40 are designated in clockwise sequence in FIG. 4 as A, B, C, D, E, F and G. In order to produce a webbed carton corner which permits abutment of adjacent edges 22 of adjacent side panels, it is necessary that the pair of corner panel portion angles C and D (and similarly with angles E and F) be substantially equal to one another. Angles C and D, however, need not necessarily be equal to angles E and F.
Thus, actual display cartons have been constructed similar in appearance to that shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, as erected from a carton blank similar in appearance to that shown in FIGS. 3, 4 and 5. In one carton the corner angles were as follows: A, 90 degrees; B, degrees; C, 30 degrees; D, 30 degrees; E, 30 degrees; F, 30 degrees, and G, 75 degrees. As in the drawings, corner panel portions 28 and 30 are slightly radially longer than portions 26 and 32 so that when formed into pleats 26-28 and 30-32, portions 28 and 30 could be adhesively secured directly to side panels 20 and 18, respectively, as by means of adhesive patches 46 on the opposite face of the panel portions.
Many variations of the above illustrated and described cartons and carton blanks are possible without departing from the inventions disclosed herein. Thus, the shape of the bottom panel can be varied as desired as can the shape of the side panels. The angles A, B, C, D, E, F and G may be varied to produce any corner construction desired so long as angle C is maintained substantially equal to angle D, and angle E likewise equal to angle F. In like manner, the configuration of bridge panel 24 may be varied as desired, and the carton and blank may be provided with additional panels such as, for instance, closing flaps hingedly secured to side panels 14, 16, 18 and 20. By proper selection of angles A through G, the angle H (FIG. 2) between bottom panel 12 and the side panels can be made to vary from slightly more than zero degrees to slightly less than 180 degrees.
The number of corner panel portions of bridge panel 24 according to the invention must always be exactly four, which minimum number also simplifies scoring, erecting, etc., as well as resulting in the advantageous structure set forth.
The carton and blank can be constructed from any desirable material such as paper, paperboard, metal plastic foil, laminates, etc.
