' 1 This invention relates to improvements in stacking boxes ortrays.
. The main obj ects'of this invention are: I First,- to provide a-stacking box or tray which maybe formed of sheetmetalstock or sheet fibre-p board stock in which the 'walls are formed by a single sheet and atthesame "time provides a structure'which is-very str0ng and rigid.
Second,-'to provide a stacking and nesting box having *few" parts entering into the structure thereof which is adapted for a'wide variety of uses.
Third, to provide astackin'gbox having these advantages which maybe-veryeconomically produced. I
I Objects relating to -details and economies of the invention will appear-from the description to follow. The invention-is defined and pointed out in the claims.
-Preierred embodiments of "the invention are illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in
which:
'- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a stacking'box embodying the invention with the stacking hails Fig. lls-an enlarged fragmentary perspective" view of a-modified form-'orembodiment-of the invention.
' Fig; 5 is an enlarged f-ragmentary"perspective' view of the form-of the invention shown'in Fig. 4
sectioned-on a line that would correspondto line" 5--5of Fig. 4.
Fig. '6 is a fragmentary perspective'view partially in vertical section of still another modificationor embodiment of the invention.
In the embodiment of the invention illustrated inFig. 1, the bottom [,sidewalls 2, 2 and end walls 3, 3 are formed-of an integral blank of bendable sheet stock, the end'walls being provided withflanges 4 lapped upon the inner side andriveted to the endsofthe-sidewalls.
It will be understood that I use the terms side and end walls in the specification and in the'claims as matters of convenience in designating parts and not -in-regard to-dimensions.
Iprovide a top frame designated generally by the numeral 5 and-comprising-side members 6 and end members I, this fram-beingform'ed integrally of rod stock or the member's-being integr'ally joined.
The upperedges 8 of the :side andend walls are folded outwardly over the corresponding-top framemember'stoclosely embrace the same as shown at 9 and the downwardly projecting portionor'stripsof fibreb'oard-maybe used. These straps or strips are folded' upon themselvesfthe bights of the" folds being conformed'to provide-bearings I3. The arms or leaves-14 0f the bearing-members are disposed to embrace the down-turned edge or'the flange portions 8 of the end wallsa'nd are'securedthereto and to the end walls by'means of'the rivets I5. 'This provides avery secureconnection for the bearing members and the bearings thereof constitute stacking lugs when-a plurality 'of boxes are nested.
The -stacking 'bails- 'or irons 16 "are I provided with arms I! having inturned pintles l8 at'their endsengaging 'the'pintle bearings. The horizontal'reach l9 "of'the' stacking bail is preferably downwardly offset so as to support a superimposedboxwithin the upper edge of the lower box. The end'walls are cutaway at 20'to expose portions 2| 'of the top frame to provide handholds. When'' the stacking bails are collapsed they are suspended at the ends of the end walls. The inner ends of the pintle bearings are turned inwardly to provide stops 22.
"-In the emb'odimentof theinvention shown' in Fig} 4. the end'walls have'vertical slits '23 therein spaced from their ends, portions 24 of 'the'end walls being turned outwardly and downwardly and conformed to provide pintle bearingsZSQT he' rivets 26' throughthese downturned portions beand conformedto provide the pintle bearing and stacking "lugs 29 "more pronounced or extended than in the other'embodiments, this being desirablewhere the boxeshave a greater taper. *In this embodiment, the arms 30 0f the'ibearing members embrace the sidewalls .at'thedower edges:or-op'enings andiare secured by rivets 3|.
=In the embodin1ent shown :in' Fig. 6, the i-pintle I2 are formed 'of strap metal or strips or, for some purposes, str'a'ps bearing members 32 have outwardly offset portions 33 constituting extended stacking lugs and having inturned tongues 34 providing stops for the stacking lug pintles. These stops are of advantage in that they prevent lateral shifting movement of the stacking bails. The bails are always supported so that they may be readily swung to erected position and their arms do not engage the end walls. The arms or leaves 35 of the pintle bearing members 32 are arranged to embrace the downturned flange portions of the end walls and secured thereto and to the end walls by rivets l as is the case with the embodiment of Figs. 1 and 2. The top frame reinforces the upper edges of the side walls and ties them together at the corners, the parts being arranged so that they provide a strong rigid structure even when formed of relatively light sheet stock.
I have illustrated and described the invention in embodiments which are considered highly practical commercially. I have not attempted to illustrate or describe other embodiments or adaptations as it is believed that this disclosure will enable those skilled in the art to embody or adapt the invention as may be desired.
