KNOCKDOWN PAPER BOX OR BASKET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 426,928, dated April 29, 1890.
Application filed January 21, 1890. Serial No. 337,631. (No model.)
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, FRED S. ELWELL, of Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Knockdown Paper Boxes or Baskets; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention,such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings', which form part of this specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in paper baskets; and it consists in a basket which is formed from paper, and of the particular construction hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claim.
The object of my invention is to provide a perforated paper box or package which is adapted to carry articles of various kinds, and to attach thereto a cover which has a free vertical movement, but which cannot be detached from the package without first removing the handle therefrom, and whereby the box or basket can be knocked down and the cover turned so that it will assume a flat form.
Figure l is a perspective of a paper box or package which embodies myinvention, the
cover being shown in a slightly-raised posi-v opposite sides of the box is the wire handle B, and placed upon this handle or bail, so as to have a free rising and falling movement thereon, is a cover C, which is made from pasteboard or other suitable material having sufficient rigidity to retain its shape.
This
cover is preferably madelarger than the box, so that it will cover the top at all points and always retain its position thereon.` The' ends of the wire bail or handle must be passed through the holes in opposite edges of the use, the bottom can be opened out, and thenv the whole basket knocked down,as shown in Fig. 2, so as to occupy but a very small amount of space while in transportation.
The box here shown is formed of a single piece of paper, which is cut so as to form the ordinary tongued and slitted flaps G, and then bent into form and the ends of the blank secured together', preferably vby means of the staples D. When the flaps are folded under the upper portion of the box, as shown in Fig. 1, it is braced by the said Iiaps; but when these iiaps are straightened out, as shown in Fig. 2, the box can be knocked down.
Having thus described my invention, I claini- The combination, withV a knockdown paper basket, of a cover provided with perforations in opposite edges, and a wire bail, which is passed loosely through said perforations and secured to opposite top edges'of the basket, whereby when the basket is knocked down the cover can be turned so as to extend parallel with the walls of the basket and thus form a ilat package, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
FRED S. ELWELL.
