To all whom 'it may concern:
Be it known thatI, Ross VAUGHAN, a citizen of the United States, residing in New York city, county of New York, and
State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Cartons; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilledin the art to which itappertains to make andV use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specicat-ion.
This invention relates to cartons for materials, such as coffee and the like, which are withdrawn in small quantities at a time, and particularlyl to cartons. provided with pivoted means for closing their discharge openings.
The objects of the invention are to provide a carton of this nature whereby the contents -may be discharged in denite quantities, which will be strong and durable, will substantially seal the contents from the deterirating influences of the atmosphere, and which may be manufactured at an expense which will enable it to compete in point of cost of manufacture with cartons of ordinary style.
Referring to the accompanying drawings,
in which the invention is fully illustrated,
Figure 1 is'a perspective view of the upper end of the carton with the flaps for covering its measuring device laid open; Fig. 2 is a side view of the carton, with its upper-and lowerportions in vertical section; Fig. 3`\is another side view, .taken at right angles to Fig. 2, and showing the upper portion of the carton in section the measuring device being partly withdrawn; Fig. 4 is a detail view, showing the measuring device in vertical section and the manner in which .it is hinged to the body of the carton, a certain tongue c being shown partway introduced into the measuring device; Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the measuring device, de-
tached; Fig. 6 is a plan of the blank from For the purpose of reducingthe cost of vmanufacture the carton as to both its body and measuring device is preferably, though not necessarily, made of heavy paper, card' board or the like.
In Fig. 6, a is a blank of substantially.
rectangular form and adapted to be folded along thel lines b to produce the sides c, c and d, d of a hollow rectangular shell e forming the body of the carton; to produce the end-walls f of the carton body, the blank is also folded along the lines g at right angles to lines b and formed with slits h coincident with lines Z) and extending to the lines g from the adjoining edges of the` blank. The material between those two ofV the slits h which coincide with the lines of fold b for the intermediate narrow side o1' wall o and at what will be the upper end of the body is cut away so-as to produce ,the tongue i. At each side of the last-named slits, and lparallel therewith and equidistant therefrom, are formed other slits j extending down to the adj oining-line g. c, is an'elon# gated lip forming one vertical 'edge-portion of the blank.
In Fig. 8,- Z is the blank for the measuring device. The device in plan is rectangular, and its front wall in the blank is part m, having relatively limited vertical dimension; its side walls are the parts n whose upper edges o rise in arcs from extensions o of the upper edge of part m, such extensions.
forming a stop as will appear; 'its back is formed by the parts p and g, which overlap each other in the ultimate form'of the device; and its bottom comprises the parts 1' and s which'also overlap each other in the final form of the device and the former of which has the extensions tand u substantially as wide as the device itself. Part' p has an extension or lip v which may be slightly bent out of the plane of part p.
In assembling the carton body and measuring device, blank a is rstformed into the shell e (Fig. 7 the lip lc being pasted to the relatively outer or right-hand wall vc in Fig. 65 then the flap c forming the extension of the right-hand wall c in Fig. 6 is turned down on-line g and aps d (forming extensions of the walls (il) folded over formed from its blanlr as follows: It is first folded on the lines vw into rectangular shape, pait g overlapping part p and being pasted thereto, it is then folded on lines 0c, parts 15 an'd a being forced' up into the rectangular shell formed by the front, side and back walls of the device and part r being made to underlie the part 8. As parts t and u fit snugly between the side walls a, n, parts 7' and S are retained firmly in position as the bottom of the device. There being no paste between any of the parts except p and Q, a space y is leftbetween parts u and p to receive the tongue z' of the carton body, as
will appear. The measuring device, thus formed, is now assembled with the shell e, whose flaps c', cl, d are as yet not folded down, the tongue i being passed into the space y of the measuring device and thereby made to form a hinge therefor; the measuring device is now swung into the shell and flaps c', d, d folded down. hus assembled, the measuring device may be swung on line g as an axis so as either to expose its interior or close opening e, at which time the lip a overlies the upper end-wall f of the carton,` so that no crevice is exposed and the lip may be used to withdraw the measuring device; when the latter is withdrawn, stops o limit its outward movement so that it cannot be accidentally detached from the carton body. The caitoii is now filled, whereupon the fiaps 2, 2, and then the flaps 3, 3, at the bottom of the carton are folded down, the latter two being pasted together. Before or after this operation, the flaps l may be folded down and pasted to each other, and these, it will be understood, form the only part| of the carton which are disturbed by the user in order to have access to the measuring device and withdraw the contents.
In use, the measuring device being in its closed position, the carton isinverted to such a position as to fill the measuring device; the latter is then drawn out and the quantity of contents held thereby discharged, whereupon it is returned to its normal or closing position. When the measuring device is in its open or discharging )osition,'it elfectually prevents the escape of any of the remainder of the contents in the I carton body.
By constructing the parts of the carton 1n the manner herein described, it is possible to assemble them without much pasting;
they may therefore be shipped in large quantities flat and quickly and readily assembled at the place of distribution'.
In so far as the novel means herein set fort-h for hinging or pivotally supporting the member herein described as a measuring device is concerned, it will be understood that I ain not limited to said device performing the function of a means for measuring;
measuring device pivotally arranged in the opening and having Walls arranged at an angle to each other and each adapted to close the opening and side walls joining the firstnamed walls, substantially as described.

As an article of manufacture, a carton comprising a hollow body part having a discharge opening in one wall thereof and a measuring device pivotally arranged in the opening and having walls arranged at an angle to each other and each adapted to close the opening and side walls joining the firstnamed walls, and also having means in its side walls engageable with the carton bodj,7
