PACKING-CASE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 29, 1916.
Application filed March 27, 1915. Serial No. 17,512.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, Lnwrs C. CosMEN and WILLIAM J. DAUM, citizens of the United States, residing at Niles and Norwood Park, respectively, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented tation by a common carrier, in which the case must be closed and sealed, or for local delivery when it is desirable to have the case open and the top covers entirely out of the way so that the bottles can be conveniently and quickly reached.
A further object of the invention is to provide a packing case of the type described which may be made largely or entirely of sheet metal. 7
A further object is to provide a packing case provided with covers which are hinged to the case in such manner that they may either be brought into position to close the top of the case and be sealed one to the other, or be folded down closely to the sides of the case within the same, or be turned back to a slanted stable position above the case as, for example, in fillingthe case for transportation by a common carrier.
A further object of the invention is to provide a packing case for bottles which will be very strong and durable and so constructed that when placed above or below another case similarly constructed it will fit into the top of or receive the bottom of the other case so that the upper one will not slide from or be accidentally displaced from the lower one. i
The invention has for further objects such other improved constructions, arrangements and devices relating to sheet metal packing cases, particularly for bottles, as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention is disclosed in the preferred embodiment in the accompanying drawing in which 7 Figure 1 is a View, in perspective, of the case provided with the top closures of our lnventlon, the closures in this figure being shown as hanging within the case close to the sides thereof. Fig. 2 is a cross sectional view of the case. Fig. 3 is a fragmentary cross sectional view of the upper portion of the case on an enlarged scale. F ig. 4 is a diagram showing the configuration of the blanks from which the corner pieces supporting the top covers are formed. Fig. 5 is a view, in perspective, of one of the corner pieces, and Fig. 6 is a similar view of one of the four angle pieces used preferably forgiving additional strength and reinforcement to the upper corners of the case.
Like characters of reference designate like parts in the several figures of the drawing.
Referring to the drawing, the case consists, in the preferred form shown, of a sheet metal box made up of side pieces 10, end pieces 11, a bottom 12 and partitions 13.
' The end and side pieces are secured together in any suitable manner, for example, by beads 14:. The bottom consists preferably of wire mesh, the edges of which are held to the ends and sides of the box by beads 15.
16 is a reinforcing strip which extends across the bottom. The ends are formed with hand grip openings 17 The upper edges of the ends and sides are bent out as indicated at 18 and are beaded as at 19 around a wire 20 which is bent into the form of a rectangle. the metal is bent inwardly of the box and underlapped to form an inturned flange 21. This flange is intended to receive the bottom of a similarly constructed box so that a number of these boxes can be piled one on top of the other without danger of the pile falling over. In each upper corner directly beneath the flange 21 isa corner piece preferably formed from a single blank a (Fig. 4), which is bent on lines 6, 0, (he and 7, and severed along the line The blank is cut out as indicated at h by the dotted lines and is then bent into the form shown in Fig. 5, the edges of the metal on opposite sides of the slot in being preferably bent out to provide flanges 22. When bent in this form the corner piece, designated as a whole by numeral 23, consists of a plate 24 which is riveted to one of the end walls of the box, a plate 25 riveted to the adjacent side Finally,
wall, flanges 26, 27, which are riveted to the inturned flange 21 of the box, and an offset portion 28 in which the slot h is formed.
The box is provided with sheet metal cover plates 29 which are beaded to wires 80, the latter projecting beyond the sheet metal so as to provide pintles 31 at each end of the cover adapted to mount the cover, in each case, slidably and pivotally in the slots h. The inner edges of the covers are provided with loops 32 which may be secured together by any suitable sealing device indicated at 33. The full lines in Fig. 2 show the position of the covers when the case is used for local delivery as an open top case. The covers lie close to the sides of the box and do not in any way interfere with the filling of the case with bottles or the removal of the bottles from the case. The dotted lines in this figure show the position of the covers when the case is closed for shipment by a common carrier. They are substantially flush with the flanges 21 andare sealed together at their inner edges. The dot and dash lines indicate the position of the covers when turned back for filling the case with bottles in the event that it is to be shipped under conditions requiring a sealed package. The covers in this case will turn back into a relatively stable oblique position above the box so as not to inter 'fere with the filling of the case. Of course, while the case is being filled for local delivery the covers are turned down within the box under the flanges 21.
The corner pieces 23 obviously give strength to the box. In order to further reinforce and rigidify the same I preferably employ the angular members 34 which may be made separately from the corner pieces or integrally therewith if desired. When made separately, as shown, the members 34 are interposed between the flanges 26, 27 of the corner pieces and the inturned flanges 21 of the box.
WVhile we have described our invention in a preferred embodiment, it will be understood that modifications might be made without departure from the principles of the invention. Therefore we do not wish to be understood as limiting the invention to the precise constructions shown except so far as the claims are expressly so limited.
The box, in its general construction, isof a conventional type. The cover plates and the means for hinging them to the box might be used in a box somewhat differently constructed, as will be readily understood.
We claim:
1. A packing case comprising a box formed adjacent its upper edge with an inturned flange, a cover plate and means on the cover plate and in the box under said flange providing pivotal and sliding connections between the cover plate and box provides diagonal downwardly and out-- wardly disposed guide slots and cover plates having pintles which project into said guide 7 slots. 7
3. A packing case comprising a box having an inturned flange adjacent its upper edge, a cover plate and means on the cover plate and box under said flange providing pivotal and sliding connections between the cover plate and box permitting the plate to be folded down under said flange or diagonally outwardly above the flange, or in horizontal position substantially flush with the flange.
