Toafl whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Gnoncn E. JACKSON, citizen ofthe United States, residing at Newark, in the county of Kendall and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Crates, of which the following is a specification. v 'l.his invention comprehends certain new and useful improvements in shipping crates for eggs or other commodities, and the invention has for its object a simple, durable and eflicient construction of crate formed of comparatively few parts that are so hinged together that they may be set up and secured together rigidly, and easily knocked down or folded one upon the other when the crate is to be shipped back empty.
The invention consists in certain construc tions, arrangements and combinations of the parts that 1 shall-hereinafter fully describeand claim.
For a full understanding of the invention, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a crate constructed in accordance with-my invention; Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional V'l6\V of a portion of the crate; Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the crate in its down condition; Fig, 4 is a perspoctiveview of the crate with the parts spread out and,
I 5 is a section on the line 5-5 of Fig. 2.-
Referring to the drawings, the numeral 1. designates the. base oi bottom ofmy improved crate which is preferably formed with an upstanding marginalrim or flange 2. The crate may beprovided, if desired,'with one or more transverse partitions 3 so as to divide the crate into compartments, one of these partitions being shown in the present instance hinged at its lower edge to the bottom 1 so that it may be swung down from a vertical position illustratedinfull lines in Fig. 2 to rest upon the bottom as illustrated in the dotted lines in such view;
4 designates the two sides of the crate that are hinged at their lower edges to the upper edges of the longitudinally extending portions of the rim orflalige 2, said sides 4 being formed at their end edges with instanding being formedat their side edges with out-- Specification of Ltters latent. Application filed May 29, 1908. Serial No. 435,721.
folded or knocked meshed Feb. 16, 1909.
standing flanges 5 designed to. take-into the flanges a of the sides so as to formanintcr locking joint between the sides and the ends when the parts are in their set up condition.
6 designates the two sections that together constitute the top or cover of-tho crate, said sections being hinged, as shown, to the upper edges of the,-sides land being designed to slightly overlap each other when swung to a horizontal position constituting the top of the crate as best shown in Fig. 1.
In order to assist in holding the ends 5 in proper engagement with-the sides when the parts are set up I secure s ring latches 11 to the innerface of the ,si being designed to spring into, engagement with the inner faces of the ends 5 as indicatedin dotted lines in Fig. 1 and illustrated in full lines in Fig. 2'. v, In the set up condition of my improved crate, it is understood that" the latch rods 7 of the ends 5 securely hold the top sections es 4, said latches 6 in closed position-over the upper edges of 1 0 nection with the interlocking flanges 4 and 5 of the ends and sides, and the spring latches, 11 of the latter effect a rigid joint betweenthe vertically dis osed parts of the crate. In order to fold t e parts one upon the other, the latch. rods 7 are' disengaged from the top sections 6 and slipped downwardly, and the ends are then folded inwardly upon the bottom 1, the sides'4 are then in turn swunginwardiy one upon the othe n-with their top sections 6 folded out Wardly upon the sides as best illustrated in Fig. 3, and the hooked extremities of the bent ends 7 of the latch rods 7 are then 1. A crate comprising a bottom, sides hinged to the bottom and adapted to fold thereon, a top'ai ranged to extend across the sides in the set-up condition of the crate, I
with registering slots, ends hinged to the ends hinged to the bottom and adapted to fold thereon, said ends being formed with tongues, and latch rods secured to the respeci tive ends and formed with oppositely cit-set extremities, one of which is dcsignedto be engaged w th the top and the other of winch E inserted through the registering slot,
is designed for locking engagement with the tongue.
2. A crate, comprising a bottom, sides hinged to the bottom and adapted to fold inwardly thereon, top sections hinged to the respective sides and arranged to have their inneredges overlap in the set up condition of the crate, said top sections being formed with registering slots, ends hinged to the bottom and adapted tofold inwardly thereon,
latch rods secured to the respective ends and formed with oppositely oil'set extremities one. of Which is designed to be inserted through the'regi'stering slots and the other of which is designed for locking engagement with the tongue.
3. A crate comprising a bottom, hinged to the bottom and adapted o inwardly thereon, top sections hinged to t respective sides and arranged to havet inner edges overlap in the set-up condi of the crate, said top sections being formed (lee l i r: i
