Description

UNITED STATES- Patented June '7, 1904.
ISAAC STRIPE, OF AULTMAN, OHIO.
SHIPPING-CRATE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 762,102, dated June '7', 1904. Application filed uly- 15, 1903. Serial No. 165,562. (No model.)
the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, in wh1ch Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the top or cover elevated in dotted lines and closed in full lines. Fig. 2 isa section cut through at a point where one of the retaining-wires is located. 1
The present invention has relation toshipping-crates; and it consists in the different parts and combination of parts hereinafter described, and particularly pointed out in the claim. T
The object of the present invention is to provide a shipping-crate that will be light, easy of construction, and cheap, so that the same may be-destroyed at the end of its destination without adding increased cost and saving the return express or freight charges.
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in both figures of the drawings.
In the accompanying drawings, 1 represents the end rectangular frames, which are formed of a size to correspond with the size of the crate designed tobe constructed, except of course as to its length. The corners of the end frames 1 are mitered, as illustrated in Fig. 1, and the corners are so formed or connected for the purpose hereinafter described.
The wires 2 are each formed of a single piece and .are bent when brought into their normal position in substantially rectangular form. The corner side bars 3 are strung upon the wires 2, as illustrated in Fig. 2,'and nails driven through said side bars at substantially right angles to each other, as illustratedin dotted lines,Fig. 2, by which arrangement the ends of the rectangular end frames are connected together and side bars connected to the rectangular frame, thereby providing an easy and cheap manner of attaching the different parts together.
For the purpose of closing the sides of the crate and also the bottom thereof thin strips between the bars. It will be understood that by my peculiar arrangement the wires 2 will allow the sides and bottoms of the crate to be brought into proper position to be attached to the end frames 1 and at the same time the'cover-bars 5 strung upon the wires 2, by which arrangement the crate is inclosed upon all sides and its top.
The cover proper or lid can be removed or turned'back, bending the wires 2, constituting the hinge for the cover, and when the wires are brought down so as to bring the cover-bars 5 upon the end frames 1 they may be nailed; but if in the event it is not necessary to nail the covers the wires 2 may be bent over the cover-bars 5, as illustrated at 6,. or said wires may be bent over after the 7 bars 5 have been nailed.
It will be understood that by my peculiar arrangement the crate is easily made and is cheap, thereby providing an inexpensive manner of shipping various kinds of vegetables and fruit.
To the end frames 1, and preferably upon the inner sides thereof, are attached the sec. 'tions or boards 7, or slats may be employed,
if desired.
For the purpose of strengthening the end frames cross-wires, such as 8, may be employed and preferably are employed, which wires are simply connected at their ends to 1 the different members of the end frames 1. Y Y Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combination of end frames, wire bodies surrounding the crate and of a form to correspond with the form of the crate in cross-section, a series of bars having the wires extended therethrough, said bars adjustable upon the Wires, strips secured to the end frames and the Wires located over the strips and the Wires carrying the bars constituting the hinge 5 of the crate-cover, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two Witnesses.
ISAAC STRIPE.
