H. H. PAYZANT LUMBER PACKAGE Filed May 16, 1927 '3 Sheets-Sheet 5 We??? Pgzaa? v I Guyana-1 d Patented Dec. 16, 1930 I uNirsnl STATES PATENT OFFICE HENRY H. PAYZANT, EVERETT, WASHINGTON, ASSIGNO R TO WEYERHAEUSER TIM- I BER COMPANY, OF TACOMA WASHINGTON, A CORPORATION-OF WASHINGTON immnnn PACKAGE Application filed. May 16,
Heretofore, the fasteningmeans provided for bundles of lumber have not been'entirely satisfactory. According to the present practice, such bundles vary in length from about four to twenty-four feet and the thickness varies from about two and one-half to five.
- inches. A bundle may comprise from three to ten or more pieces orboards laid face to face one upon another. It is a practical impossibility in the handling of such long bundles. to prevent bending, and durin the bending the several boards in the pac age slip one 7 upon another to a limited extent, because the several pieces are bent upon arcs of difierent curvatures or radii. i
Twine. ties, placed at suitable intervals along the bundles, have been used for many years as the binding means. However, such ties frequently damage the lumber, particularly' when used upon the softer woods. Thus,
during handling, the ties are often drawn so tight that they become atlea'st artially embedded in the corners ofthe undles, and where the lumber is piled to a considerable height, the overlying bundles are frequently of such weight as to impress the twine into the 3 surface of the wood upon the lower bundles.
The damage thus caused has frequently rendered the goods unsaleable. Further, with old methods, the ends of the boards which are carefully finished by rebutting at the mill are apt to be injured in shipping andhandling. I am aware that it has been attempted heretofore to improve lumber packages by enclosing the. ends of the bundles within pasteboard caps, but such caps have afforded insecure protection because they have not been adapted to movably conform to the ends of'the boards during the bending of .the bundles.
It is the object of thepresent invention First, to construct a package of this kind from durable material, so arranged as to emciently protect the goods and thereby insure deliverythereof in salable condition to dealers or other purchasers. I I
Second, to provide'a lumber package in which the binding members are broad and flat and thus prevent'the damage caused by old types of tying means. 7 v
1927. Serial No. 191,602.
Third, to efficiently protect the ends of such bundles from injury. I 7
Fourth, to provide lumberipackages having smooth surfaces of suflicient size for labeling upon their ends, and 4 Fifth, to provide an end protecting the ends of the boards and allow limited slipping of one piece upon another without danger of in ury to the cap.
This invention also includes certain other novel features of construction which will be more fully pointed out in the following specification and claims. I
The invention will be best understood by reference to the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1 is a side elevation'of my improved lumber package in bent position,
showing the manner in which the end caps conform to changing positions of the ends of the boards; Fig. 2 is an enlarged, perspective view, showing one end ofthe package in normal position, with the end 'panel perpendicular relative to the faces of the boards; Fig. 3'
is a similar perspective view of a simplified form of end cap; 4 is a perspective view showing the inner blnding member with the outer'hinge and binding member removed; Fig. 5 shows the positions of the outer binding member and hinge before they are finally secured upon the bundle; Fig. 6 is a perspective view of another form of the; invention; Figs. 7 and 8 areplan views of the blanks constituting-the preferred form of ca and Figs. 9 and 10 are plan views of the s1mplified blanks. I
As illustrated, my invention 1s primarily, although not exclusively, adapted for use in binding and protecting a plurality of boards p .for lumber packages, which will conform to as i ward, and said wings are made lon enou h to meet, end to end, when folded a out t e bundle of lumber to be secured. The second blank of the preferred construction, shown 1 ed to encircle the bundle near an end. The
In the alternate form of my vice, shown in Figs. 3, 9 and 10, I provide a rectangular band 22, instead ofthe member 14 of the preferred construction, and a hinge member 23 (Fig. 9) having an'end panel 24 anda pair of flaps 25, which correspond to the flaps 18 and 19'of the preferred construction.
To bind and rotect the ends of a bundle of lumber, the lnner binding member 14 is first attached, as shown in Fig.4. "Thus, the
Y double creased flap 16 is folded over an end of one or more of the pieces of lumber and its extremity inserted between two of the boards. Now the wings 15 are folded around the bundle .so' as to completely embrace the same and the extremities of said wings are secured 1 one to the other by any suitable means, such as by the tape 26, which is applied to the outer surfaces of thewings 15 to secure them together. This tape 26 may be made of'suit-- abletough paper or fabric having adhesive on one surface for securing it in place. Obviously, other fasteningmeans for the ends of the wings may be provided,for -example, metal staples. clinched against a blade anvil in- .serted between the band or wings and outer board of the bundle. Now the hinge member and outer binding member may be placed upon the end of the package, as shown in Fig.
5,that is, the flap 18 is positioned to overlap the taped ends of the wings 15, and the end panel 17 is folded upon the end of the bundle. The wings 20 are then folded so as to extend about the package and outside of the wings 15. The otherwise free extremities of the wings 20 are subsequently'securedone to the other by suitable means, asby tape 26. Finally, the ears 21'are folded in between the wings 20 and lumber and the fla "19 folded down upon the outer surface an secured directly to the lumber. Suitable tacks or staples 27 Fig. 2) maybe driven to secure the flaps. imilarly,'the extremity 28 of the "flap 18,
which rojects-beyond the wings 15, lesscured irectly to the opposite, outer face of the lumber. It will be noted that the extremities 28 and 29 of the flaps 18 and 19 respectivel are cut at oblique angles relative to longitudinal corners ofthe package. Th s.
facilitates sliding of onepackage upon another, without dangerof catching the end 1 caps of one upon the-corner of another. Upon secured together in anysuitable or jwell j known manner.
It will be noted thatthe side edges of the the longer bundles, I prefer. to employ 'a I wings 15 and 20, adjacent to the end corners of the package, are cut at such an angle relativeto the longitudinal edges of the ackage, that they permit flexing of the pee age, as
sh own in Fig. 1, to the maximum extent which.
is likely to be required in handling. To assemble the alternate form of the device shown in Figs. 3, 9 and 10, the band 22 is first applied tothe bundle of lumber near anend and folded at the crease lines so that the ends-of said band abut-one a ainst the I other. These ends are now secure together b suitable means, such as. the tape 31 (Fig. 3 to bind the package, is positioned ashort distance from, the end of the bundle, as indicated in Fig. 3, and the hinge member 23 is then folded so that thepanel 24 covers the ends'of the boards. Finally, the flaps '25 are fasteneduponthe outerfaces of the boards by suitable metal'fasteners 32. Obviously, ears, like the ears 21 of the preferred construction,-may be applied to the side edgesof the panel 24 and inserted between the' band 22 and'lumber, if desired,--to afford further protection for the. and corners of the boards.
As shown in Fig. 6, it is sometimes desirable upon the shorterbundles to provide continuous protection for. the outer faces of the boards. In such case, two pairs of the wings 20 maybe formed on a longitudinal panel 33,
The band22 having been thus secured;
which is equal in'length and width to the boards of the package. Flaps 34 and 35 are also arranged to meet at the opposite side of the package, being securedto the outer. board by suitable fastening means 32. Otherwise, the package shown in Fig. 6 is similar to that of the preferred construction.
It will be evident that for the lighter or less expensive bundles, the alternate form offastenings shown in Fig. 3 may be employed, or'
the protection afforded by the blank shown .inFig. 7 may be applied, omitting the .inner binding member 14. 7 Further, the simplified hinge member 23 (Fig. 9)-1may be used in connection with the binding .member 14, shown in Fig. 8. Numerous other modificat ions may be made within the scope of my invention,.and I do not wish to limit myself to details of construction otherthan as pointed out in the appended claims. In somecases, as for foreign shipment, I consider it advantageous toapplytap'e or metal-angle I clips '36 (Fig. 6) to the package to further protect the end corners during handling.
It is important to note with reference to all of the forms of the invention, above referred to, that the hinge and bindingmembers are so arranged that the end protection movably conforms to the package, whether in normal or fiat position or bent "as shown in Fig. 1. Thus, the end panels 17 and 24 may be disposed either perpendicular to or at oblique angles to their attached flaps upon opposite faces of the lumber packages. All of ,the
' binding members are free upon at least one board upon another without transmitting 'side of the package to shift longitudinally and thereby allow/limited sliding of one an end thereof, a hinge member extendin across the ends of said boards, fiaps on sai member positioned upon opposite outer faces of said boards, at least one of said flaps overla ping .said band and means securing the oterwise free ends of said flaps upon the outer surfaces of said boards. 2.
