Description
H. WILDBERG. BOX AND CASE. APPLICATION FILED MAR. 13, 1914.
Patented Mar. 23, 1915.
. To all whom it may concern HENRY WILDBERG, 0F CINCINNATI, OHIO.
BOX AND CASE.
Application filed March 13, 1914.
Be 1t known that I, HENRY VVILDBERG, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of Cincinnati, in the county of amilton and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Boxes and Cases, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part" of this specification.
In the use of boxes and casesof a more or less permanent character such as for the transportation of bottle goods, where the case is used as a container by the purchaser and then returned to be used again by the seller, the life of the box is an important item. Not only does a rotting away or falling to pieces of the box cut short the usefulness and hence the value of the box, but in such case it is most liable to give way when it is filled with bottles allowing the contents to drop out and probably break. In a beer case, for example, to illustrate the causes of decay or loosening of the box bottom, rubbish is liable to get into the bottom of such case. Beer from wet bottles will moisten this. The case is kept in a cool, damp place by preference, whereby moisture continually present on both the inside and outside of the box, gets an excellent opportunity to hasten decay.
the weather, the box will catch rain water even though it has some drainage holes. All in all it is plain that in such a box, nail holes Will soon rot out, nails partially oxidize and boards become loose, so that the case bottom may fall out at any time. It has been attempted to get away from this difficulty by nailing slats over the bottom of the box. is, however, is not successful, because slats easily pull out, and also because, while they do not retain the moisture like a solid bottom, yet they sit in moisture and catch enough at the joint with the sides to rot out the nail holes. Both slats and solid bottoms are equally liable to warp and pull away from the sides of a box.
It is the ob'ect of this invention to provide a bottomless ox of the nature specified, and this is accomplished by that certain construction and hereinafter specifically claimed. v
In the drawings, Figure 1 is atop plan view of the box. Fig. 2 is a vertical section thereof. Fig. 3 is a side elevation with part Specification of Letters Patent.
or the like, thereby arrangement of parts to be pointed out and Patented Mar. 23, 1915. Serial No. 524,374.
of the side-board. of the box. Fig. 5 the same with one side wall removed, on a section along the lines 5, 5, of Fig. 4.
The box has sides 1, Land ends 2-, 2, suitably nailed or dovetailed and glued together. The bottles 3, are held in the box or case by segmentally grooved longitudinal partitions 4, l. ltecess'es 5, 5, in the end boards of the box are formed to open at the bottom so that the partitions 4C, 4, will slide into place from beneath. Nails 6, 6, are then employed to hold the partitions in place. These nails, it will be noted, are driven in away from the bottom of the box and not subjected to the rotting or rusting conditions of nails placed on the ends 7, 7, of the partitions fit snugly into the recesses, and swelling owing to moisture will tend to tighten them in place. The partitions must be of allow a series of segmental recesses 8 to be cut in them, back to back on each side of the partitions. These recesses are open at the top of the partitions and end before "the bottom is reached, leaving a segmental shelf or ledge 9, integral with the partition. The partitions are spaced apart from each other and from the sides of the case, so that a bottle of the desired size will fit the space left between two adjacent recesses or-between a recess and the side wall. f
It can be seen that this box has'no bottom whatever, supporting the bottles as it does on ledges formed integral with the partitions. There is no necessity for nailing any piece onto the bottom'edge of the sides of this box, all nails being inserted above the danger point.
Having thus described my I claim as new and desire to ters Patent, is y 1. In a container for bottles and the like, sides and ends for the container and a series of parallel partitions therefor, partially cut away so as to form recesses in the partitions and form ledges at the bottom of the recesses wherebythe bottom and sides of the bottle are retained.
2. In a container for bottle and the like, sides and ends for the container, partitions therefor, partially cut away so as to form segmental shaped recesses in the partitions and ledges in said partitions at the bottom of the recesses. p
3. In a container for bottles and the like,
Fig. 'lis an end elevation a proper thickness to sides and ends for the container, partitions therefor, partially cut away so as to form recesses in the partitions, and ledges integral with the partitions at the bottom oi the recesses whereby the bottom and sides of the bottle are retained.
4-. In a container for bottles and the like, sides and ends for the container, partitions therefor, partially cut away so as to form segmental shaped recesses in the partitions and ledges integral with the partitions at the bottom 01" the recesses whereby the bot tom and sides of the bottle are retained.
5. In a container vtor bottles and the like, sides and ends or the container, partitions therefor, partially cut away so as to form recesses in the partitions located on'each side thereof so as to present a series of adjacent pockets between the partitions to engage opposite sides of bottles inserted in them and ledges in the partitions at the bottom of each recess.
6. In a container for bottles and the like, sides and ends for the container, partitions therefor, partially cut away so as to form segmental shaped recesses in the partitions located on each side thereof so as to present a series of adjacent pockets between the partitions to engage opposite sides of bottles inserted in them and ledges in the partitions at the bottom of each recess.
HE KEY VVILDBERG.
