(Cl. 206-40 7 x This invention relates to a display carton and one object of the invention is toprovide adevice of this character of such construction that it will serve equally well as a carton for storing and shipping jars and other packaged goods and as 'a container for displaying the contents of the carton when placed on sale. I
' Another object of the invention is the provision of a display carton of such construction that -when used for display purposes it will be supported at a rearward incline prevented from falling over when placed on a counter-in a store.
Another object of the invention is to so form the carton that when the cover is removed and the carton set up upon a counter the jars or other packages within the body thereof will be disposed in rows one above another and successively move into positon to be seen through an opening at the lower end of the front of the carton and removed for inspection or sale.
Another object of the invention is to so form the body of the carton that while the articles therein can be easily seen and removed through an opening at the bottom of the front of the carton they'willnot be liable to accidentally slip out of the carton.
Another object of the invention is to provide a carton which may be formed from a single blank of cardboard or similar sheet material.
Still another object of the invention resides in providing a device which is simple and durable in construction, inexpensive to manufacture and one which will be very eflicient in'operation and application to use.
With these and numerous other objects in view, our invention consists in the novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter referred to and more particularly pointed out in the specification and claims. I v
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings wherein:
Figure 1 is a view of the blank from which the carton is formed; V
Figure 2 is aside elevation showing the carton in use as a display container;
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken vertically throughthe carton when in use as'a display container;
Figure 4 is a fragmentary sectional viewshow ing the prop in a folded position;
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken transversely through the carton along the line 5-5 of Figure 3;
Figure 6 is a sectional view taken along the line 5-6 of Figure 3;
Figure 7 is a perspective view showing the blank partially folded to, form the carton;
Figure 8 is a perspective view of the carton;
Figure. 9 is a perspective view of a cover for thecarton; and p 1 Figure 10 is a view showing the cover placeabout the carton, the cover'being shown in sec- .tion and the carton in elevation.
The carton constituting the subject matterof this invention isformed from a blankof; sheet ima'terial illustrated in Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings. This blank which isindicated in general by the numeral l is folded I along the scoredlinesZ, 3 and I to providea rear wall 5, front wall 5,. and side walls]. The blank is also folded along the scoredline 8 to provide a flap 9 which is glued to theinner surface of the side wall at the opposite end of the blank and holds the walls in their proper rela- .ation to each other as shownin Figures 5 and 6.
Upper and lower tongues I I! and are formed by bending extensions of the side wallsalong the scored lines I2 and I3 and it should be noted that whilethe scored lines" I21 extendiat right angles to the side edges of the walls, the scored lines l3 extend diagonally. Therefore when the lower portion of the blank belowthe front wall forming portion thereof is "folded alcmg the scored lines II and I5 to form the bottom I! and a flap I! which extends upwardly against the rear wall 5 to retain the bottom in its proper position, the bottom will be disposed at such an angle to the front and rear wall that the carton 'will extend at a rearward incline when set upon a counter for displaypurposes as shown in-Figures 2 and 13. The bottom bearsagain'st the tongues H when in the position shown in these figures but is not glued thereto and the flap." is merely folded upwardly into position to bear against the inner surface of the lower end portion of the rear wall 5. A flap or tongue Ills formed by cutting the blank as shown'at l5 and 20 and attention is called to the fact that the cross cut i9 is of such outline that thefront wall is formed with scallops 2|, across the upper edge of a sight opening 22 formedwhen the flap-is folded inwardly and downwardly tothe position ing 22 andother containers shift downwardly in the carton. The openings 20 formed in the side walls I at opposite sides of the flap ll impart an ornamental effect to the carton when on display and in addition provide the sight opening II with side extensions which expose side portions of the lowest jars or containers 2! to such an extent that they can be easily grasped and removed throughthe opening. The fact that the carton is disposed at the rearward incline shown in Figure 3 when set upon a counter causes weight of the jars to urge them rearwardly or towards the back wall of the carton and prevents them from accidentally sliding forwardly through the opening 22 and being broken by dropping upon a counter or floor. A prop 25 formed from a strip of cardboard is applied to the rear wall of the carton by having its end portions 25 and 25 glued to the rear wall, its lower portion or brace 26 being scored transversely at the point 21 in order that the prop may be folded flat against the carton as shown in Figure 4 when not in use. When the prop is in its folded position the carton may be slid into a cover 2| in which the carton is housed after being filled with the jars When this display carton is in use the blank from which it is formed is folded along the lines of scoring 2, I, 4 and I and the tongue 9 glued to the side wall 'I at the opposite end of the blank.
'Ihe flaps II are folded inwardly and the portion it forming the bottom is folded rearwardly and its tongue I! tucked up into the carton against the rear wall. Thejars 28 can then be placed within the carton through the open upper end thereof and the flaps II folded inwardly, after which the extension 29 of the rear wall is folded along the line of scoring 30 to form a top having a portion folded along the line of scoring II to form a tongue 32 which is tucked into the carton as shown in Figure 8. The cover is then slid into place about the carton and the flap II which is left inthe position shown in Figure 1. will .be retained in closing relation to the opening 22 and prevented moving forwardly and allowing the jars to fall out of the carton if the carton is carelessly handled. A large number of the covered cartons may be packed in a box of suitable size for storage or shipment. The Jars do not completely fill the carton and, therefore, when the cover is removed by a merchant the Jars may be shifted upwardly in the carton and the flap ll thrust inwardly to the position shown in Figure 3 where it serves as a false bottom for the carton and supports the lower tier of 'jars in position to be seen through the sight opening and removed through this opening for purchase or closer inspection by a customer. The prop 25 firmly holds the carton in the position shown in Figures 2 and 3 when it is placed upon a counter and the rearward incline of the carton not only eliminates any danger of the Jars accidentally slipping outwardly through the opening 22 but also disposes the Jars at such an angle that the labels upon their covers can be easily read. If a jar is removed from the carton but not purchased, Jars in the carton can be easily shifted upwardly and'the removed Jar slid back into place.
From the foregoing description of the con-J struction of our improved device, the operation thereof and the method of applying the same to use will be readily understood. It will be seen that we have provided a simple, inexpensive and Having thus described the inventiomwhat is claimed is: r
1.
