Description
A. BERMAN REDUGING BOX Sept. 29, 1936.
Filed Dec. 4, 1935 IN VENTOR. AA/-MM 5f/@MAM ATTORNEYS.
Patented Sept. 29, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 11 Claims.
This invention relates to boxes, and more particularly it pertains to the type of box in which commodities such for example as cereals, soap powders and such merchandise are offered for sale.
Such commodities are generally stored in their original packages by the housewife until the contents are completely consumed, after which the box is disposed of.
It frequently happens, and this is particularly true if the contents of a box are such as are infrequently used, that the supply becomes entirely exhausted before the housewife is aware of the fact. Furthermore, such boxes are generally of comparatively large size and occupy considerable storage space which, in many instances, is limited.
It is the object of the present invention to improve the construction of all such boxes in which the contents are stored until consumed and so to construct such boxes that the contents will at all times be protected against deleterious foreign elements and all of this in a new and novel manner which will not impart any disadvantages to the manufacture or use of the box.
A feature of the invention resides in a novel construction whereby the box may be reduced in size from time to time as its contents are consumed.
Another feature of the invention resides in a vnovel construction whereby even though the box is reduced in size by the removal of portions thereof, a closure for the box will at all times be provided.
A further feature of the invention resides in a novel construction whereby the closure aforementioned is formed by parts which are integral with the body portion of the box instead of being a separate element.
Still a further feature of the invention resides in the provision of means for securing or retaining the closure in its closed position.
Other features of the invention relate to certain novel and improved constructions, arrangements and combinations of parts hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the claims, the advantages of which will be readily understood and appreciated by those skilled in the art.
The invention will be clearly understood from the accompanying drawing illustrating the invention in its preferred form and the following detailed description of the constructions therein shown.
1n the drawing:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a complete box constructed in accordance with the present invention, the box being illustrated in its original lclosed form,
Figure 2 is a perspective view of the box shown 5 in Figure 1, after it has been partially reduced in size, the box being shown in a partially open position, and
Figure 3 is a longitudinal sectional view partly broken away illustrating the several parts in the position which they occupy when the parts are folded to form a closure.
Referring to the drawing by reference character and particularly to Figure 1, the numeral I0 designates the box proper. YThe box illustrated is of rectangular form but may, if desired, be of any other shape although I prefer to make it of angular conformation. The reference numeral I2 designates the front wall and I4 designates the rear wall. The reference numeral I6 20 designates oneend wall of the box, the reference numeral I8 designating the opposed end wall of the box. The top wall of the box is designated 20, the bottom wall thereof being designated 22.
Extending entirely around the box at a point below the defining edge of the top Wall 20 thereof, there is a crease or score line 24. The location of this score line with reference to the defining edges of the top wall 20 is important for a reason which will now be specifically explained. This score or crease line 24 forms a panel 26 in the upper portion of the front wall I2; a panel 28 in the upper portion of the side wall I8; a panel 30 in the upper portion of the rear wall I4; and a panel 32 in the upper portion of the side wall I6, see Figure 1. These panels 26, 28, 30, and 32 are adapted to fold inwardly of the box to form a closure therefor and in order that this may be accomplished, the width of these panels, that is, their dimension from top to bottom should not be greater than the thickness herein referred to, being the distance between the front and rear walls thereof.
Below the score or crease line 2d there is ya second score or crease line 34 which, like the score or crease line 2d, extends entirely around the box. This score or crease line 34 forms in lconjunction with the score or crease line 24 a second series of panels, as will now be pointed out; a panel 36 in the front wall I2 of the box; a panel 38 in the side wall I8 of the box; a panel lll] in the rear wall Ill of the box; and al panel lila in the side wall I6 of the box. These panels are similar to the panels 26-32 in that they are of a width which does not exceed the thickness of the box as heretofore explained. In the present embodiment of the invention I have shown but two sets of panels which are adapted to form closures for the box, but it is obvious that Where occasion would permit, as in the case of large boxes, any desired number of sets of panels may be employed Without departing from the 'spirit of the invention.
While the box may be severed along the lines of fold which form the corners 42 of the box to separate the several panels of each set from one another and to thereby permit of their folding into overlapping relation to one another to form a closure for the box, I prefer to provide separate lines of severance forthis purpose. The lines of severance just mentioned may be score lines or lines of perforations, as may also the score or crease lines 24 and 34 for that matter. The lines of severance by means of which the several panels may be separated from one another are designated 44, and it will be noted that they are formed in the end walls of the box, closely adjacent the corner folds thereof and extending parallel with said corner folds. Such a construction and arrangement provides, when the panels of any one set are separated from one another, end panels which are of a length which will conveniently fold inwardly -without bulging or otherwise distorting the shape of the box. In speaking of the length of the end panels, it will be understood that I mean their dimension in the direction of from front to'rear of the box.
I will now describe the manner in which a box constructed in accordance with the present ini vention is adapted to operate.
Starting with a full box which is closed, as illustrated in Figure l, the box is opened in any desired manner to permit of the removal of a portion of its contents. The -box is used in this state until the level of its contents is at, or slightly below the score or crease line 24. When this condition is obtained, the top wall 20 is preferably entirely removed and the upper pan` els 26, 28, 3U and 32 are severed from one another along the lines of severance designated 44. With the panels thus separated, they are folded inwardly of the box into overlapping relation, the end panels being preferably folded in rst, said inwardly folded panels forming a. closure which replaces the end wall 20 which has been removed.
While it may not 'be necessary, I prefer to provide means for securing the inwardly folded panels in their closure-forming position. In the accompanying drawing, I have illustrated one such means as consisting of a tongue 46 formed preferably as an integral part of the front panel of each series, which tongue is adapted for reception in an opening 48 in the corresponding rear panel of each series, these openings being herein illustrated as a slit.
When the above described operation has been carried out it will be apparent that the box will have been reduced in length equal to the width of the panels 26 and 30 in the upper series of panels, thus reducingthe size of the box, and accordingly requiring less storage space therefor. When the contents of the box have been reduced to a point below the lower score or crease line, which in thelpresent embodiment of the invention is designated 34, the above operation is repeated, the several panels 36, 38, 40, and 42 then constituting the closure for the box.
In its finally reduced state, the box will be of such reduced size that the housewife will have a visual indication to the effect that the commodity contained in such reduced box is at a low point and should be replenished, which is important where a particular commodity forms a part of a diet which must be strictly adhered to.
Where the box is used as a package for granular material, such for example as salt or sugar, I provide a plurality of scored or perforated sections 60 which may, as the box is reducedv in size, be removed to provide pouring openings 62 as illustrated in`Figure 2.
Thus it will be apparent that the present invention provides a box in whichthe objects of the invention are fully realized, and while the invention has been herein illustrated in a preferred form, it is to be understood that it is not to be limited to the specific construction illustrated and that it may be practiced in forms other than that shown without departing from the spirit thereof.
