SHIPPING CASE.
Application filed November 15, 1923. Serial No. 674,946.
This invention relates to shipping cases,
A further object of this'invention is to provide a shipping case having a partition v.or a plurality of the same each of which is adapted to divide the case into separate compartments and-to support the case lid with whichthe partition is designed to co-act.
A. still further object of this 4invention is to provide adequate means of protectin the ventilation holes provided in each case y a series of crimped paper ribs, which are adapted to be placed in the case cover, as well as on each sidev of the case and lid, which provision prevents in a very practical way lthe compactness of the cases and insuicient ventilatiomwhere several cases are shipped together.
Another object of this invention isv to provide the case `cover with stiffening ribs posiltioned at right angles to each other, in such manner that the case cover can readily be tied in place on the case, with provision for attaching a caseslifting strap or similar means'. With these and many other objects in View, which will be more readily apparent as the nature ofthe invention is better understood, the same consists in the novel combination, construction and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter fully pointed out, illustrated and claimed.
It will be quite readily understood by those skilled inthe art to which invention belongs, that the same is uite susceptible of various changes and mo ications without departing ventionfbut a' preferred and practical embodiment thereof is shown on the accompanying drawing, in which f Fig. 1 is a/perspective view of my own shipping case, showing the lid in position together with the partition which co-acts with it.
Fig. 2 is a plan view of my improved case.
Fig. 3 isl a side elevation of thexparts4 shown in Figure 2 of the drawings.
Fig. 4 is an elevational view of a corner of my improved case, showing the manner in* from spirit or scope of the in.
which the short lapping end, which isI usually placed inside, is 'crimped outside and made into a vertical rib, as indicated on the drawings. y
Fig. 5 is a plan view of the parts shown in Figure 4 ofthe drawings.
Fig. 6 is an enlarged view of the interseotion between the rib in thelid and 'a vertical partition which co-act together.
Fig. 7' is a plan view of the intersecting ribs .on the case cover.
Fig. 8 is a perspective View of a portion of the case cover, showing the manner of constructing the corners.
Fig. 9 is a perspective view of a paper rib adapted to be applied to existing paper shipping cases;
Similar reference numerals refer to similar parts throughout the several figures of the drawings. i
r.in carrying out this-invention, and the.
manufacture of these improved cases, the lid, orcover, may be described as follows:
The lid is first blanked out from strawboard or similar material and is provided with the parallel score lines a and the outside score lines Z) and c respectively running crosswise of the blank and intersecting at the middle thereof. Where the score lines intersect a square opening 11 vis punched out therebyl permitting of the contracting of the blank along the score lines' shown in Figure 7 to provide the ribs .R as shown in .Figure 2. When the ribs R are formed the opening ll'disappears; and also, due tothe contracting of the blank V'to form the ribs, the flange portions 13 which form the edges of the lid may also be contracted to form the offset projections 13u. the ribs R in proper form and .also holding the projections 13a together rivets or cleats 12 may be employed. l
The ends of the top are formed as shown in Figure 8 wherein the end flanges 14 are turned inwardly beneath the side ianges 13 and held by rivets 15.
The part B of thevbox is also formed `from a blank in such manner that the sides117 may be formed at their ends with the offset ribs 19 which overlap the sides 17a`of the box as clearly shown in Figure 5, therebysprovid-- ing'vertical stiffening and spacingribs 19 at the corners of the box body.
IThe interior of the box may be provided with suitable partitions 16 which cooperate To v"assist in. holding 4ars y with the ribs R to assist in supporting the must bepsecurely tied, and to this end the construction is well designed to permit a shipping twine to be placed fover the box -lid in either direction, /closingin the` center of the box where the longitudinal and transverse ribs are cut. The twine' by which the lid is secured to the box lays flat on the surface of the lid and thus eliminates the usual practice of picking boxes up by the string or tyin cord, thus causing the boxes to tilt and ma ing the chickens or other contents `slide to one end or side'. When chickens are shippedl and are crowded in oney end or corner of the box by tilting the same they become trampled and crowded to such an extent that they are frequently injured or die from suli'ocation; and second, the rib through the center of the lid provides adequate means for attaching lifting means, such as, a hand 1oop20 which is adapted to -be secured to the rib R on the lid.
The partition 16, shown on Figure 1, and
Figure 6, of the drawings, is provided with a right angled flange 22 adapted to be secured to the sides of the case-,by rivets or other fastening means as shown in Figure 4 of the drawings. The usual Ventilating holes are placed in the sides land ends of the case body as well as in the top of the lid and in each partition.
I claim: v
1. 'In a crate for shipping live chicks, the combination of a receptacle body having openings and 'a cover therefor, said cover comprising upstandmg rib members cross-- ing at the central portion thereof and providing interior grooves, and partitions of greater. height than the side of the receptacle body adapted to engage in said grooves thereby to divide the receptacle into a plurality of' compartments.
2; In a crate for shipping live chicks, the combination of a receptacle body having air circulating openings, vertical ribs offset from the side of said receptacle body, a coverA for said receptacle body also having openings, upstandingv ribs *formed in crossing relation at the 'longitudinal and 'transverse centers of the cover and providing co1- responding grooves at the inner side of the cover, downturned flanges at the edges ofthe cover formed with offset portions, and partition4 members of greater height thanl the sides of the receptacle body engaging said grooves thereby to divide the receptacle into a plurality of compartments.
