UNITED STATES PATENT FFICE.
EDWIN CLAY PEEBLES, OF CINCINNATI, OHIO, ASSIGNOR TO CHARLES WALTON AND WILLIAM A. HINSCH, BOTH OF SAME PLACE.
EGG-CARRlER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 355,659, dated January 4, 1887.
Application filed May 7, 1886. Serial No. 201,413. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, EDWIN CLAYPEEBLES, a resident of Cincinnati, Hamilton county, Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Egg-Carriers, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a cheap, safe, and convenient means for packing and carrying eggs and other fragile objects.
In the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure l is a top view of my improved egg-carrier laid open and nearly flat. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section of the carrier closed. Fig. 3 is a perspective View of part of the open carrier, showing the bottom, the-two ends, and the partitions be tween the individual egg-spaces. Fig. 4 is a View of the form of. cross-partition for use in a case especially adapted to carrying rosebuds. Fig. 5 is an end view of the partitions. Fig. 6 shows the blank from which the box is made.
The device consists, essentially, of a box of peculiar. structure containing partitions which divide it into spaces, each capable of holding one egg or other small object. This box itself is preferably made of a single piece of pasteboard. This piece of pasteboard is folded along the dotted lines shown in Fig. 6, and cut through on the solid lines shown in the same figure. This divides the piece of pasteboard into four main divisions, A,( C, and
D, of which A and C make the two sides of the box, and B and D the bottom and top, respectively. The parts a, -b, c, and (I close in the ends of the box. The parts A, B, C. and D differ in length, A being the shortest, B slightly longer than C, and D the longest. After being cut and bent the pasteboard is folded intothe shape of a box, the four end pieces at each end being arranged in the order shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The'difference in length of the parts A, B, C, and D admit of this folding. When in this position, an awl or similar tool is passed through each end, preferably near the top and toward the median line, forming openings in each of the four end parts. These openings are marked, respectively, a, I), c', and d in the drawings. The cord S is passed through the openings in the mannershown in Fig.1. Com mencing at the. opening d of one end, it is passed inturn through each of the openings at that end of the box, always passing from without inwardly. It is then passed over to the other endof the box, and is passed through each of the openings there, commencing with the opening a", and always being passed from within outwardly.
The spaces in the box are formed by the partitions E and F. The partition E extends lengthwise of the box, through the center, and is secured to the part B by two or more hinges, H, made of some flexible material, and pasted to the partition,and also-to the bottom B. The longitudinal partition E'is'provided with vertical slots e, cut on the edge adjoining the box, and which embrace the crosspartitions F, and the cross-partitions F are similarly provided with slots f, which embrace the longitudinal partition E, thereby preventing the cross-partitions F from being withdrawn when the partitions stand vertically. These slots are preferably made wide, so that the cross-partitions may be folded flat against the longitudinal par tition. The hinges H then allow the longitudinal'partition to be laid flat on the bottom B, thus saving space in packing the empty cases. 7
The number of egg-spaces in the case is immaterial to the invention, but for the purposes for which this case is intended twelve is a so convenient number.
The mode of operation is quite simple. The case is opened so as to expose the spaces,which are then filled. The cord S is thentightened, and in-so doing it is drawn in a straight line, 3 which closes the box, and brings the openings in the ends into the same straight line in which they were originally made. The excess of cord is nowoused in tying,up the box by being, preferably, first drawn down and under the box.
The special advantage of this case is that by its use there need be but one handling of the egg from the nest to the consumer, no matter at what distance they may be apart, as the individual cases may be packed by the farmer 5 as he collects the eggs, and the cases then shipped in usual thirty-dozen lots of commerce, as they are put up at the farm. The separate cases may also be delivered by the grocer to the consumer without rehauling the eggs. roe
What I claim as new and of my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
3. In an egg-carrier, the partitions E and F, provided with wide slots 6 and f, the partition E being hinged to the box, as and for the purposes set forth.
EDWIN CLAY PEEBLES.
