J. G. BOYD METHOD OF FORMING RECTANGULAR HAMPERS AND THE LIKE Filed June 28. 1.921 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Patented Aug. 19, 1924.
UNITED STA JAMES e. Born, on JACKSONVILLE, nnoarna.
Application filed June as, 1921. Serial No. 481,046.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMns G. BOYD, a
citizen of the United States, residing at Jacksonville, in the county of Duval and State ofFlorida, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Methods lot Forming Rectangular Hampers and the like, of which the following is a specification.
The product of this method is claimed in a companion application.
The providing of hampers and the like to the farmers or growers of fruits and vegetables has become ditticult owing cost of labor and the increased freight rates.
Boxes cannot be shipped set up economically because of the high freight rates be cause of their bulk, and the farmers or growers object seriously to receiving the like in knocked down condition because this necessitates their having on their places an assembly plant with its incident and nectime be properly ventilated lowermost layers of essary labor. I
Round packages or crates are objectionable'in that they cannot, when full, beeco: nomically packed in the car, and at the same while in the car, andit is necessary to pack these round containers on end which is objectionable because ofthe fact that the weight of the entire con tents of the container is sustained by the lowermost layers are thereby bruised and otherwise damaged.
One of the objects ofmy method is to produce a rectangular hamper which may be nested for shipment to the farmer or grower and be delivered to the farmer or grower ready for use without expense for setting it up. Another advantage of the rectangular hamper is that it may be packed in cars with car strips between each layer of hampers in the car, thereby providing proper ventilation and refrigeration while en route. Another advantage oi the rectangular hamper is that it may be, when filled, laid upon its side, in which position the lowermost layers of the contents of the hamper have less weight on them than would be the case if the hamper were packed on end, all of which results in a reduction of claims and damages against the railroad, and permits the products to reach the customer in better form and at a lower price.
My invention consists method of tormin g rectangular "further in the hampers and to the high hampers and the contents, which the like, whereby the several side members of the hamper are each assembled by secur-.
ing' the slats to the top and bottom cleats in any suitable manner and are then laid side by side in proper sequence and then stitching to said members while in-t-liis position, a plu rality of wire hoops.- P
My invention consists further in stitching a plurality of wire hoops to side members of rectangular hampers and the like, the longitudinal speed of -the stitching being increased for each succeeding hoop the stitching speed or bottom hoop, whereby the stitching operation of each of theseveral hoops will simultaneously terminate-With the stitching of another hoop.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a top sections laidflat side by side in proper sequence with a plurality of hoops stitched thereto.
Figure hamper or the like, formed by my method, in the act of being assembled.
Figure 3 is a perspective of the complete hamper formed by my method.
Figure t is a vertical central section through a complete hamper.
Figure 5 is a detail one side member of my improved hamper.
ll/[y improved hamper is rectangular in relative to plan view of four side 2 is a perspective view of the perspective view of 5 rss PATENT beneashape and comprisessidemembers 1, 2,3,
and 4, each sidemember bottom cleats 6 and 7 and vertical slats connecting the cleats. The cleats are provided at one end with tenons 8, these tenons being located at the same vertical side edge of said member, and these cleats are provided at the other end with mortises 9, said mortises both being at same side edge of the side member. All of the side members are of the same construction, therefore the description of one will sufiice.
As illustrated in Figure 2, the act of assembly consists merely in placing the side members in juxtaposition and introducing the tenons into the mortises of the next succeeding side member and then, as shown in Figure 3, twisting the free ends of the hoops 13, 1 1, 15 and 16, together, thereby holding side members securely in assembled position. A. loose bottom 10 is then placed on the cleats 7 and held in that position by the weight of the contents, and a loose cover 11 is placed on top of the contents and under comprising top and and 1'6are stitched to the top cleat 6 and sustained in that position by suitable fasteners such as 12, said fasteners engaging top cleats 6.
When the side members 1, 2, 3, and 4 are placed. together in proper assembly, as indicated in Figure 1, it will be seen that by reason of their rectangular outline they form a substantially fan shaped body so that it is necessary that the strands of Wire constitutin'g' 'the hoops 13, 14, 15 and 16, be increased inwlength from the bottom hoop 16 and upward" a 1 Wlrileithe side members are in the position indicated in Figure-1 the hoops 13, 14, 15 the side members, (side members'bei'ng properly placed from each other) by a suitable stitching machine constructed so that. the stitching mechanism for the hoop 15 will have a faster longitudinal feed than the stitching member for the 11001316, and the stitching mechanism for the hoop 14 will have a faster longitudinal speed: t-hanr-the; stitching member for the hoop 15, and the stitching mechanism for the hoop 13 will have'a faster longitudinal stitching speed than the stitching mechanism for the hoop 14; that is to say, the stitching mechanism for each succeeding hoop hbOvcthe bottom-hoop must have a relatively faster longitudinal stitching speed than the stitching mechanism for the next lowenhoop, 1
'As shown in Figure. 1 the ends of the hoops extend a substantial distance beyond theouter edges of the outermost side blanks and are free from attachment to the side blanks so-;that afte-rvthe hoops have been stitched as shown in Figure-1 and as described, and the side members have been folded: to the'position shown in Figure 3, these free ends of the hoops are twisted together seat 17 at one corner of the con tainer-,'thcreby firmlybinding the side members in their assembled position.
The details of construction shown are not absolutely necessary to the functioning of my method and therefore my method is not to be considered as being limited to such vbottom, then laying said sides beside each other in proper sequence, whereby'a flat substantially fan shaped body is formed, then simultaneously stitching a plurality of wire strands of different length to said sides and completing the stitching operation of each strand of wire substantially simultaneously and leaving a material portion of each of said strands PIOJBClDiHg free beyond the two,
outermost side sections.
2. The method of forming shipping hampers rectangular in cross section which con sists in constructing side members which are Wider at the top than at the bottom; then laying said members beside each other in proper sequence, then stitching to said members'while in above position a plurality of strands of wire of different. lengths.
3. The method of forming shipping hampers rectangular in cross section which consists in constructing said members Wider at the top than at the bottom, then laying said members flat beside each other'in proper sequence, then stitching to said members while in above position a plurality of strands of Wire of different lengths, leaving a ma terial portion of each strand projecting free beyond the two outermost side members. I
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
JAMES c. BOYD.
