Definitions
- ABSTRACT A display carton is provided for tumblers and the like.
- the carton is provided with an open front end.
- a false bottom panel secures the lower ends of the tumblers in place, and tabs extend downwardly from the top of
- the present invention resides in the provision of a rectangular carton having a closed back side, and an open front side.
- the carton may, if desired, be overwrapped with a transparent film closing the open front side.
- the forward part of the open side is normally provided with a flange which is arranged on a substantially common plane.
- the lower portion of the container is provided with a false bottom construction which is notched to accommodate the lower ends of the tumblers.
- the upper portion of the carton includes an inwardly extending liner panel provided with spaced tabs which are designed to extend into the upper ends of the tumblers to hold them engaged, and to hold them in spaced relation.
- the lower portion of the carton is also provided with tabs which may extend into the hollow lower ends of the tumblers to assist in holding them from movement in any direction.
- the back portion of the carton is comprised of panels which interlock together so that the back may be closed after the container is filled. This prevents any distortion of the front portion of the carton during the loading operation.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the carton with the tumblers mounted therein.
- FIG. 2 is a sectional view horizontally through the carton, the position of the section being indicated by the line 2-2 of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 3 is a rear elevational view of the carton after it has been closed.
- FIG. 4 is a detailed view of one of the lower front corners of the carton after it has been erected.
- FIG. 5 is an elevational view of a detailed portion of an upper corner of the carton after it has been filled.
- FIG. 6 is a vertical sectional view through the carton, the position of the section being indicated by the line 6-6 of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 7 is a diagrammatic view of the blank from which the carton is formed.
- the carton includes a bottom panel 10, a side wall panel 11, a top wall panel 12.. and a second side wall panel I3. These are hingedly connected along parallel fold lines l4, l5 and 16.
- a glue flap 1? is connected to an end of the bottom panel it along a fold line R9, the glue flap I7 being attached to the inner surface of the side wall I3 in order to hold the carton in rectangular tubular relatron.
- Closure flaps 26 and 2H are hingedly connected to the side walls Ill and 3.3 respectively along a fold line 22.
- Rear closure panels 23 and 24 are hingedly secured to the rear edge of the bottom panel 10 and the top panel 22, respectively, along the fold line 22.
- the rear panel 23 is provided with generally trapezoidal shaped apertures 25.
- the rear panel 24 connected to the top panel 12 is provided with locking members 26 which are hingedly connected to the panel 24 along fold lines 27.
- Each of the fold lines 2'7 is interrupted by a generally U-shaped cut line 23, each of which defines a short tab 30 which is designed to extend through the cut line 31 which forms the narrower parallel side of each opening 25, and extends somewhat beyond the narrow side of the corresponding opening 25.
- Each locking member 26 also includes a tab 32 connected thereto along a fold line 33, the tab being insertable through the corresponding aperture 25 to extend beneath, or forwardly of, the panel 23. Thus the locking members 26 engage forwardly of the panel 23 to lock the rear wall in securely closed position.
- the end walls II and 13 are foldably connected along aligned fold lines 35 to front flanges 36.
- the flanges 36 in the finished form of the carton, extended at right angles through the side walls 11 and 13 respectively.
- Supporting flanges 37 are foldably connected to the front flanges 36 along aligned fold lines 39.
- the flanges 37 are designed to extend in angular relation to the front flanges 36 and to form liner flanges which prevent front flanges 36 from bowing outwardly and to provide an improved appearance to the construction.
- the bottom panel 16 is hingedly connected along a continuation of the fold line 35 to a front flange 36.
- a fold line 37 which is parallel to the fold line 35 and spaced therefrom connectes the front flange 36 to a false bottom panel 39.
- the false bottom panel 39 is connected along a series of fold lines 40 to supporting flanges 41 which, in turn, are connected to a bottom liner panel 42, the fold line being indicated by the numeral 43.
- the bottom panel 42 is designed to rest in face contact with the bottom panel 10 when the carton is in its erected form.
- the fold lines 40 and 43 are interrupted by a series of arcuate cut lines 44, each of which is shaped to fit the contour of the lower end of one of the tumblers B illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 6 of the drawings.
- the rounded portions 44 which are best illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 7 of the drawings are designed to extend into or below the hollow lower ends 4 5 of the tumblers B and to assist in holding the tumblers engaged in the carton. Obviously. the engagement of the surface of the tumbler B with the false bottom 39' insures the fact that the tumblers will not slide forwardly or become disengaged.
- the top panel 12 is connected along an extension of the fold lines 35 to a front panel 46 which, in turn, is connected along a fold line 47 to a supporting flange 49.
- the flange 49 is designed to incline upwardly to the under surface of the top panel 12, and is connected along a fold line 50 to a top panel liner panel 51.
- the top liner panel 51 is designed to extend substantially half way across the under surface of the top panel 12.
- a series-of spaced tabs 52 are hingedly connected to the top liner panel 51 along a common line of fold 53. As is indicated in FIG. 6 of the drawings, these tabs 52 are designed to extend into the open upper ends of the tumblers B so as to hold them in properly spaced relation.
- the side flanges 36 and 37 are temporarily folded against the walls to which they are hinged.
- the false bottom panel 39 is folded to overlie the bottom panel 10 in spaced relation thereto, and the areas between the fold lines 40 and 43 are folded so as to form the false bottom in the manner indicated in FIG. 6 of the drawings.
- the member 42 is folded against the bottom panel 10 and extends substantially the full width thereof.
- the flanges 46 and 49 connected to the upper panel 12 are formed to provide a substantially triangular strut, and the panel 51 is folded to underlie the top panel 12.
- each tumbler B As each tumbler B is inserted, the forward lower portion of each tumbler engages against the rounded cut edge 44 of the false bottom panel 39, and a tab 52 is folded downwardly into the open upper end of the tumbler so as to hold it in place.
- the rear wall flaps and 21 connected to the side walls 11 and 13 are folded inwardly, then the panels 23 and 24 are interlocked together to form a rear wall for the carton.
- a generally rectangular carton for tumblers in- 4 cluding :
- said false bottom panel having spaced notches therein engaging the outer surfaces of said tumblers in spaced relation to the lower ends thereof.
- top liner panel hingedly connected to the front edge of said top panel and folded to underlie said top panel
- top liner panel foldably connected to said top liner panel extending downwardly into the open upper ends of said tumblers and frictionally engaging the inner walls of said tumblers to hold said tumblers from movement relative to said top panel
- interlocking means detachably connecting said closure flaps whereby said back wall may be opened for insertion and removed of said tumblers.
- closure flaps on said side walls foldable inwardly of said closure flaps and extending between said top and bottom panels to hold said carton rectangular.
- top liner panel is connected to said top panel by means of a front panel extending downwardly from the forward edge of said top panel, and a supporting flange inclining upwardly and rearwardly from the lower edge of said front panel, and to which said top liner panel is hingedly secured.
