Application filed May 4, 1909. Serial No. 493,912.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, CHARLES FRANCIS JEN- I packa e which will be cheap to manufacture and e cient in use.
To these ends the invention consists in the details of construction and combinations of parts more fully hereinafter disclosed and particularly pointed out in the claim.
Referring to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification in which like numerals refer to like parts in all the views: Figure l is an elevational view partly in. section, of a package embodying my invention. Fig. "2 is a bottom plan view thereof with a portion of the bottom closure broken away.
1 represents a cylindrical, s irally wound, body portion; 2 an inverte cup-shaped, flanged bottom closure; 3 a like flanged top closure having its flanges pointing in the same direction as the bottom closure; and 4 a rectangular shaped inner tube fitting between sald closures 2 and 3 and contalning the lamp 5 or other article to be packed.
The body portion 1 .is made from continuous spiral tubing by cutting the same into suitable lengths in the manner well known; the top flange closure 3 is then in serted by suitable machines through the bot tom end (S of the body portion and forced by said'machines along the length of said body portion until it is stopped by a suitableosition shown in dotted I device at about the lines inFig. 1. It 1s preferable to stop this closure 3 at a short distance from the upper edge 7 of the body portion 1, in order to leave a protecting space between the. top edge 7 and the disk portion of the closure 3. By thus sinking the disk of the closure 3 below the top edge 7, any contacting bodies will be apt to exert their pressure upon the said edge 7 rather than upon the disk '3, and thereby avoid crushing the comparatively fragile lamp or other body 5. In the same way by raising the disk portion of the closure 2 above the bottom edge 6 ofthe body portion the fragile body of the lamp is likewise protected againstany pressure which is ordinarily exerted upon the support upon which the package may rest. v
The rectangular tubular" container 4 is preferably square shaped, and it has such dimensions that its corners 8 will fit snugly the interior of the tubular body portion, as
shown. This tubular container 4 may be formed of a completed tube, or it may simply consist of a scored piece of paper or other material wrapped around the lamp and having its ends 9 and 10 loosely contacting with each other, as indicated in Fig,
2. Said container 4; being braced at its 'several corners, as indicated in F ig.' 2 will necessarily provide resilient sides which will yieldingly support the lamp and receive in transit,
The ends of the'lamp are yieldingly held, as shown, between the central portions of the disks belonging to the end closures 2 and 3; and the ends of the container 4 are held respectively, between the disk of the closure 2 and the flange of the closure 3, as indicated. 1
