LULU MISUTTON, OF ST. OLAIRSVILLE, OHIO.
MILLINER'JS Box.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 645,338, dated March 13, 1900.
vApplication filed `l'uly 14, 1899. Serial No. 723,824. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern.`
Beit known that I, LULU M. SUTTON, a citizen of the United States, residing at St. Olairsville, in the county of Belmont and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Milliners Boxes; 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 appertains to make and use the same.
This invention is designed,primarily, to supply a paper box'or wrapper for the use of milliners to receive hats, bonnets, and the like when trimmed to prevent crushing of the fril1s,laces,ribbons,and other trimmings when delivering and handling the goods.
A desideratum and one uppermost in mind in devising the invention is cheapness, lightness, and stability of structure. The box is formed of stiff paper, the blank being creased upon the lines of fold and cut into the requisite shape to admit of the overlapping iaps interlocking, thereby dispensing with adhesive compositions, staples, and all extraneous fastenings.
Within the scope of the invention the precise outline of: the box is unimportant, as it may be cubical, flattened, oblong, and the like. Hence the shape illustrated may be varied to suit the purpose for which the wrapper or box is intended.
The improvement consists of the novel features and details of construction, which hereinafter will be more fully described and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a box constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a detail view of the blank, the dotted lines showing the creases or folding-lines. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the box set up for use, the top or cover being thrown upward, so as to show the structure to better advantage.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in allV the views of the drawings by the same reference characters.
The box is formed from sheet material, such as paper, sufficiently sti to maintain the shape imparted thereto. The blank is approximately of the form shown in Fig. 2 and comprises parts, which for the sake of clear- 'ing flaps 7, 8, 9, 10, and 1l.
ness will be designated by terms indicative of the position which they occupy in the completed box. These parts are bottom 1, front 2, back 3, sides 4 and 5, top 6, and interlock- These several parts are separated by crease-lines which coincide with the lines of folds, said crease or fold lines being indicated by the dotted lines. The interlocking iiaps are of triangular form and terminate in arrow-heads 12, which are thrust through slits in the inclosing side and secure the parts when the box is set up. The triangular form of the interlocking flaps centralizes the arrow-heads, whereby the assembling of the box can be more conveniently accomplished. The slits 13 in the sides 4 and 5 are central and extend outward from the bottom at right angles to the crease-lines between it and the said sides, whereas the slit 14 in the front 2 extends parallel with the crease-line between said front and bottom. The slits 15, two in number, spaced apart and extending in parallel relation are formed in the back 3 and extend at right angles to the slit 14 in the front and to the crease-line between said back and bottom and are disposed to receive the arrow-heads of the [laps 7 and 9.
The blanks are kept in piles, so as to occupy a small space, and are cut or creased substantially as shown in Fig. 1. The blank is given a box form Aby folding the front, back, and side vertically on the crease-lines. The interlocking aps 8 and 10 of the front overlap the inclosing sides 4 and 5 of the body and are secured to the latter by thrusting their arrow-heads 12 through the corresponding slits 13 from the outside. The arrowheads have a lateral extent greater than the slits 13, so as not to'escape therefrom after being positioned. The interlocking iiaps 7 and 9 of the sides 5 and 4 overlap Athe back, and their arrow-heads are engaged with the slits 15 in precisely the same manner as the heads of the flaps 8 and 9 with the slits 13. The side wings of the arrow-heads are pressed together when thrusting them through the slits in either direction, according as the box is being folded or unfolded. After the hat, bonnet, or other article is placed in the box the latter is closed by folding the top or cover 6 thereover and the arrow-head of the ap 11 is thrust through the slit 14, thereby securiii Y 645,338
ing the cover. The flaps 7 and 9 are disposed at corresponding edges of the sides 4 and 5, and the aps S and 1 0 are located at opposite edges of the front 2. This disposition of the iiaps facilitates the formation of the box from the blank, as the aps 8 and l0 may be held compressed by one hand, leaving the other hand free to hold the sides. Moreover, the flaps 7 and 9 fold upon the same parir-the back 3--Which simplifies the formation of the box.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new isl A box formed from a blank of sheet material comprising a bottom, a front, back, sides, a top, and interlocking flaps, the latter being of triangular form and terminating in engaging heads, certain of the flaps appearing at corresponding edges of the inolosing sides, other aps being disposed at opposite edges of the front, and a single flap at the outer edge of the top, the back and sides having slits at right angles to their folding-creases, and the front having a slit parallel with its folding-crease, the several slits being adapted to receive the said engaging heads of the inf terlocking flaps and the back having a pair of spaced slits, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
