This invention pertains to improvements in folding boxes. More particularly, this invention is directed to a folding box of telescopic construction for use as a receptacle for papers, files, and the like.
One of the objects of this invention is to provide a compact folding box composed of an outer case and a receptacle to slide therein arranged to contain papers which may be examined or partially withdrawn without removing them completely from the box, and without separating the receptacle from the case, with the least loss of time.
Another object of this invention is to provide a folding box having an outer case and a receptacle to slide therein in which the outer case is provided with a novel window arrangement serving of the case to lock the receptacle into the box.
Figure 4 is a view of the outer case stretched out fiat showing its configuration.
Figure 5 shows one methodof stacking a group of folding boxes for display.
Figure 6 shows another method of stacking a series of the folding boxes for display.
The folding box comprises a case member [0 and a receptacle ll telescopically slidable in the to allow examination of the papers in the recep- V tacle either from the top of the box or from the end of the box while the box remains in totally closed condition.
Another object is to provide a folding box having an outer case and a receptacle telescopically slidable therein in which there is provided a window flap on the case which serves both as the means for viewing the contents of the box from the top and end and also as the lock for maintaining the receptacle in closed condition in the case.
case ill. The receptacle ll may be constructed preferably in the form of a rectangular shallow tray having a bottom l2 with integrally formed sides It and I4 and a back I5 and the front l6. The outer case member I0 is made of a single sheet formed as shown in Figure 4 having a bottom II, a top l8, a side i9, and a side 20 formed by gluing together parts 20 and 20a tocomplete the case. The sides l9 and 20-20a are cut away at 2| and 22 respectively so as to expose the front portions l3a and Ida of the respective sides I3 and ll of the receptacle member II by which the receptacle may be gripped between the thumb and finger to pull it out from the case member ID.
The top I8 is scored at 23 to form a hinge for the flap 24 which is scored at 25 and bent downwardly to form the tongue 26. A viewing opening 21 is cut in both the flap 24 and in the tongue 26 having portions 21a and 2112, the entire opening And still another object is to provide a folding 3o 21 being preferably covered with a transparent box composed of an outer case and a receptacle to slide therein so arranged that it may be positioned in partly opened condition of the receptacle relative to the case so as to'permit the removal of the contents of said receptacle at a desired predetermined rate until the receptacle is emptied.
And still another object is to provide a folding box of special design for containing such items as fan-folded gummed labels arried in accordion-pleated continuous strips in the box in such a way as to facilitate the examination of the contents in the box and to be partially opened to allow the continuous removal of the folded label strip therefrom.
Further features and advantages of this invention will appear from a detailed description of the drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the folding box in closed position.
Figure 2 shows the folding box partly open with the receptacle partially removed from the outer case.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the folding material 28 fastened to the under side of the flap 2t and back of the tongue 26, as best seen in Figure 4. 1
When the receptacle II is partially inserted into the case III, as shown in Figure 2, the flap 24 stands upwardly, as indicated, so as to allow ready access to the papers 29 in the receptacle which can be readily withdrawn therefrom without completely dlssembling the receptacle from o the case.
downwardly behind the front wall l6, Figure 1.
The material 29 cooperating with the front wall l6 serves to lock the tongue and hold the receptacle in the case It so that the folding box when thus fully closed with the material inside may readily be handled for packaging and the like.
The front wall I6 has a cut away portion 30 which cooperates with the portion 21b of the box particularly showing the insertion of the flap viewing window 21 so that the various boxes.
when stacked on end as shownin Figure 8. clear- Thus, there is provided a folding box having means to facilitate sliding the receptacle into and out of the case together with a flap serving 7 as a locking means to retain the receptacle in the case of the folding boxincluding a viewing window so arranged as to allow examination of the contents in the'closed box from either the end of the box or the top of the box.
While the apparatus herein disclosed and described constitutes a preferred form of the invention, it is to be understood that the apparatus is capable of mechanical alteration without departing from the spirit of the invention and that such mechanical arrangementsand commercial adaptations as fall within the scope of the appendant claims are intended to be included herein.
Having thus fully set forth and described this invention, what is claimed as new and desired to be secured by United States Letters Patent is:
1. In a folding box comprising an outer case andthehinge whichconnectstheflaptothetop of the case member being located rearwardly of the front of the case member.
2. In a folding box comprising an outer case member, a flap forming a portion of the top of the said, case member, said flap being hinged to the remaining portion of the top. a tongue hinged to the free end of the flap and extending downwardly at the end of the case member, a receptacle sliding within said case member, a viewing window formed both in said flap and in said tongue, a transparent closure over said window attached to said flap and tongue and extending across the hinge therebetween, a cut-away pormember, a flap forming a portion of the top of the said case member, said flap being hinged to the remaining portion of the top, a tongue hinged to the free end of the flap and extending downwardly at the end of the case member, a receptacle sliding within said case member, a viewing window formed both in said flap and in said tongue, a transparent closure over said win- 4 tongue whereby the contents of said box are exposed toview from the front and top of said box,
tion in the front of the receptacle cooperating with the portion of the window in the tongue whereby the contents of said box are exposed to view from the front and top of said box, and the hinge which connects the flap to the top of the case member being located rearwardly of the front of the case member, the said outer case member having substantially vertical sides and cut-away portions on said sides whereby to expose said receptacle in order that the same may be gripped to pull it out from the said case member.
