Middletown,
Ohio, a corporation oi Ohio Application March 12, 1942, Serial No. 434,398
- 4 Claims.
My invention relates to bottle ,carriers of the type set forth in application Serial No. 424,035, filed Dec. 22, 1941, in 'the name of Howard J. Fischer. In that application there is described a bottle carrier in which in addition to the carrier proper consisting of side walls and a bottom wall, there are integral end straps conn cted to the side walls by triangular connecting portions, so that they can be folded out into positions and straps, at will.
The present improvement as applied to generically the same structure as shown in the said application, provides a form of blank to be used in constructing the carrier which is simpler to make up into form by gluing or stapling, and provides a form of end strap which includes a median inwardly projecting tongue on the end strap which will serve as a partition between bottles mounted on the carrier and held in place against laterally shifting by the end strap. There will also be'a saving in total amount of board used in making the carrier.
The improvements are affected by that certain construction and arrangement of parts of which an example is illustrated herewith and will be described in the ensuing specification, the novelty inherent in which will be set forth in the claims that follow, to which reference is made.
In the drawing:
Figur 1 is a plan view of the cut and scored blank.
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the blank folded double and ready for gluing or stitching of the end strap elements.
Fig. 3 is a perspective of the structure resulting 'irom the operation illustrated in Fig. 2 when erected.
Fig. 4 is a like view showing the end strap elements of the erected carried rocked into position, and theside walls folded and the handle portions 2, 2, the base being centrally scored at- -3, and the sides defined from the base by the scores 4, 4. The outer ends of the side wall members are slit back at the sides to form strap portions 5, 5. A score line 6 at the inner end of the slits, and a score line 1 across the inner end of the strap portions serving to define a triangular connecting panel or element for the strap-portions, in this respect corresponding to the structure in the Fischer application above referred to.
The strap portions are also scored at 8, this score beingat such a distance from the score I for each strap portion, that the combined dissuch-that when the three triangular portions are folded together, as illustrated in Fig. 4, the holes will align with each other to receive a ball or handle device.
The blank so formed is then folded crosswise,
which may be performed in automatic folding machinery, thus bringing into overlying relation the end strap elements, as illustrated in Fig. 2. A suitable stapling attachment to the folding machine may then be employed to staple the portions of the overlying end strap members, as at I I, ll, in'Fig. 2'. The blank is then ready for shipment to point of use.
When it is desired to set up the carrier it is erected primarily as shown in Fig. 3, by folding the side walls vertically and extending the base. This will result in bringing the end strap to a position with the outer ends of the connected strap members vertically, and the strap members extending horizontally and flatwise across between the side of the side walls.
The next operation is to rock the end straps so made up on the triangular connecting panels established by the scores 6 and'l, so that the end straps then lie edgewise at the side margins of the side walls oi the carrier. When this is done the portions 12 will extend inwardly of the carrier.
As shown in Fig. 5, when bottles are placed in the carrier these portions I! lie between the two outer bottles at each side of the carrier and serve as a cushioning partition, where it is most needed inthe carrier.
As has already been noted the carrier is designed in the illustrated form to take a handle, which is inserted after the triangular end panels are folded together. The handle is shown as a wire bail It, with a wooden sleeve thereon, the ends of the bail being inserted through matching holes in the triangular ends of the side walls.
Instead of stapling the end strap portions they could be secured together by cement in a standard gluing operation of the folding machine.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Pateat is: 1
l. A bottle carrier structure comprising a single rectangular blank or boxboard having,.in articulation in the order named and in the direc? tion of the length of the blank, a side wall, a
tween the straps, the said straps being articulated to the lower portions of the side walls by angularly related score lines forming a triangle with a portion of said cut lines, the said bottom wall having a score line intermediate its edges, extending transversely of the blank and located substantially equidistant from the ends of the blank, whereby the blank may be initially folded over on itself in halves, the length of the said strap portions being substantially greater than half the width of the bottom wall, and said blank when folded over as described having its mating strap portions connected together at a distance from the articulation of the strap portions to the side walls equal substantially to one-half the width of the bottom wall, whereby the blank may be erected to a form in which the bottom wall is horizontal and the side walls vertical with the joined strap portions connecting the respective side walls, whereupon the strap portions may be turned respectively in opposite directions to form end abutments for the carrier, the joined portions of the straps extending inwardly toward the median line of the container to form partial partitions, the intermediate portions of the side walls extending upwardly between the said strap portions, to constitute spaced, substantially parallel carrying portions.
2. The structure claimed in claim 1 wherein said upwardly projecting portions and diverging the upwardly projecting intermediate portions of the side walls are each provided with diagonal score lines meeting intermediate the ends of the said upwardly projecting portions and dive ing downwardly to meet the side edges thereof, whereby the said intermediate portions of each of the said side walls may be folded to an upwardly tapering shape the apex of which is formed of three layers of boxboard.
8. The structure claimed in claim 1 wherein the upwardly projecting intermediate portions of the side walls are each provided with diagonal score lines meeting intermediate the ends of the downwardly to meet the side edges thereof, whereby the said intermediate portions of each 'of the said side walls may be folded to an upwardly tapering shape the apex of which is formed of three layers of boxboard, the said three layers being provided with mating perforations for the engagement of a handle member.
4. The structure claimed in claim 1 wherein the upwardly projecting intermediate portions of the side walls are each provided with diagonal score lines meeting intermediate the ends of the said upwardly projecting portions and diverging downwardly to meet the side edges thereof, whereby the said intermediate portions of each of the said side walls may be folded to an upwardly tapering shape the. apex of which is formed of three layers of boxboard, and wherein the said intermediate portions of the side walls constitute the greater part of the width of the side walls, the said strap portions being narrow, and wherein the said upwardly tapering shape of the said parallel carrying portions constitutes substantially the entire area of the said substantially parallel carrying portions.
