OSCAR i3. WTEAVER, OF VILLIAMSPORT, PENNSYLVANIA.
TRAY FOR HOLDING CARAMELS, 80C.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 442,500, dated December 9, 1890.
Application filed September 27,1890- Seria] No. 366,354. (No model.)
To all whom. it may concer/L:
Be it known that I, OSCAR B. WEAVER, of Williamsport, in the county of Lycoming and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Holders for Articles of Confectionery, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention is an improvement in trays or holders for caramels and analogous confections for use in shipping, storing, and exhibiting them forsale.
In the drawings, Figure l is a plan view of such tray or holder. Fig. 2 is a cross-section of a packing and shipping box containing a number of trays or holders placed one upon another and filled with caraniels. Fig. 3 isa perspective view of a portion of a tray, normal size.
The caramel tray or holder A has parallel rows of cells` i) and ribs c, all formed integrally from a sheet of fibrous material, (preferably muslin or papeig) which is coated or saturated with parat-Fine or other like substance adaptcd to prevent adhesion of the carameis to it. The paratne also stiftens the sheet, and thus performs a double function. The ribs c are narrow and have about the same height as the thickness of the carainels and intersect each other at right angles, the cells b, which are formed by and between them, being thus rectangularin shape as Well as shallow and fiat-bottomed, corresponding to the size and form of the caramels d, Fig. 3, which they are designed to contain. The ribs are hollow', being formed by a like series of intersecting depressions or channels in the under side of the parafned sheet.
A number of filled trays A maybe piled one upon another in a shipping-box B, Fig. E?, each superimposed tray serving thus as atop or cover for the one beneath it., so that the caramels may be stored or transported Without danger of contact with each other or of adhesion to any of the adjacent surfaces of the trays.
The tray or holderbeing likewise very light and cheap, it is in all respects Well suited for its intended use.
Having thus described my invention, What l claim, and desire to secure by Letters Pat ent, is-
As an article of mauutacture,the improved caramel-holder composed of a sheet of fibrous material having parallel rows of narrow up- Wardly-projecting hollow ribs which intersect each other, as shown, and the rows of shallow flat-bottomed cells D, formed by and between such ribs, the whole being iliade integrally, and the said sheet coated with paraiiine, as specified.
