Application l'iled October S, 1886. Serial No. '215,7-27. (No model.)

To @ZZ whom it may concern:

Beit known that we, JOHN F. DIEAIER, of Elizabeth, in the county of Union and State of New Jersey, and PAUL E. GoNoN, of the city, county, and State of N ew York, have invented a new and Improved Papenox, of which the following isl a full, clear, and exact description.

The object of our invention is to provide a new and improved paper-box which is simple and durable in construction, and specially adapted for holding les and other papers.

The invention consists of a paper-box and its drawer, each having its end constructed of a metallic slide held in place by flaps on the ends of the sides, and a locking-plate to hold all the parts in position.

The inventionalso consists of various parts and details and combinations of the same, as will be described hereinafter, and t-hen pointed out in vthe claims.

Reference is to behad to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in'which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding partsin all the figures.

Figure lis a rear perspective view of our improved box. Fig. 2 is a front perspective Fig. 3 is a diagram of the blank for forming thc body of the box. Fig. 4 is a rear perspective View of the body of the box. Fig. 5 is an cud view o f the box before it is finished. Fig. 6 is a plan view of the slide; and Fig. 7 is a cross-section, il'rom t-he rear end, of a modified form ofthe The box A consists of the body B, the nietallic slides C, and the lockingplate D. The

bodyB is provided with the four sides B', B2, B3,

and B, and with the overlapping end B nvhich is secured by gluing or pasting to the side B.

Each of the sides is provided with a ap, a,

a', a?, and as, respectively, which are slightly beveled, so as to permit an`easy folding of the flaps onto their respective connecting parts. The Inetallic slide C is provided with the out wardly-turned guides O', which forni a holder fort-he retention of the two flaps of the sides,

and the locking plate D, which is a plain square piece of card-board.

The body B of the box A is formed; as shown in Fig. 4, by gluing or pasting the overlapping end B5 to the inside of the side-Bt. The

ap a3 is then inserted in the guide C,as shown in Fig. 5, 'with the side flaps, a and ai, turned under the slide O, and the ilap a. is also in 55 Serted into the opposite ends of the guides C', after which the lockingplate D is passed into the guides C over the flaps a and a,so as` to cover the same, as shown'iu Fig. 1. The flaps a and ce can be glued or pasted to the inside of the slide C, andthe flaps a and a and the locking-plate D can also be secured to each other by putting paste or glue upon the outside oi' the ilaps c and as before inserting the locking-plate. f

The end of the drawer A' is made in precisely the saine manner Yas the end of the box A, with the addition of a ring, F, held in a clamp,-G, provided with the usual tongues, which pass through apertures in the lockingplate D and in the slide C, and are spread apart on the inside of the slide in .the usual manner.

Instead of fastening the metallic slide C as shown and described, we may also secure the same by using a locking-plate, H, held in the guides of the slide G, and provided with projecting ends H', which are folded over the ends ot' the slide C,and are secured to the outside of the two opposite flaps a and a, and t-he flaps c and a2 are passed in between the 8J slide C and the said projecting ends H of the plate H, as shown inFig. '6.

Three of the sides of the drawer A are cut as shown in Fig. 2, so as to conform to the shape Of the drawer A. 85

Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new., and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. In a paperbox, the combination of a body having flaps with a metallic slide and a 9o locking-plate, substantially as shown and described.

2. In a paper-box, the combination of a body provided with sides, each having a ilap andan overlapping end piece secured to one g5 of the sides, with a metallic slide having guides and a locking-plate, substantially as shown and described.
