Claims priority, application Republic of South Africa, Aug. 19, 1966, 4,986/ 66; Aug. 19, 1966, 4,985/ 66 Claims. (Cl. 229-23) ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention provides for the premanufacture of cardboard panels and timber panels or timber-containing panels, coats of contact adhesive being provided on the panels to permit their being assembled subsequently to form containers.
This invention relates to the manufacture of boxes or containers for the packing of agricultural produce such as fruit, tomatoes, and the like.
At present, panels and staves of timber are provided, and these are made into boxes or containers by agricultural producers as and when required, for the packaging of agricultural produce. The applicant believes that panels in accordance with his invention, can also be used by the agricultural producer for the manufacture of his containers at the time when packaging is to take place, but that the containers so made Will be more economical than boxes or containers presently in use.
According to the invention, there is provided a container which includes a cardboard composite panel comprising a floor part and front and rear side walls integral therewith, and a pair of longitudinally spaced end wall panels which include at least some timber for stiffness to permit stacking of loaded containers, the said floor part and the said side walls of the composite panel adhering to the end walls by means of contact adhesive.
The adhesion of the end wall panels to the floor part and to the said side walls may be by the contact'adhesive being provided in coats prior to assembly on at least three peripheral faces of the side walls and on the mating faces of the floor part and the said side walls.
The adhesion of the end wall panels to the floor part and to the said side walls may include having fold-over tabs at the ends of the side floor part and the said side walls, and by the contact adhesive being provided in coats prior to assembly on the said tabs and on the outer side faces of the end walls, said tabs adhering to the outer side faces of the end walls.
The front and rear side walls may have integral with them front and rear top longitudinal strips adhering by contact adhesive to the upper faces at the ends of the end walls. The top longitudinal strips may be provided with fold-over tabs secured by contact adhesive to the outer side faces of the end walls.
An end wall panel may include a peripheral timber framework and at least one side panel secured thereto. The end wall panel may include a peripheral timber framework sandwiched between side panels.
Further according to the invention, a method of manufacturing containers includes the step of manufacturing composite panels comprising a floor panel and front and rear side walls, and end wall panels which include at least some timber, of providing the said panels with "ice coated regions of contact adhesive, and of subsequently assembling the said panels to form containers as described.
The invention will now be described by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which different types of containers are shown.
In the drawings:
FIGURE 1 shows an oblique side view of a two-compartment container;
FIGURE 2 shows a development of the composite panel of the container shown in FIGURE 1;
FIGURE 3 shows an isometric view of an end wall panel for the container of FIGURE 1;
FIGURE 4 shows an isometric view of an end wall panel of special construction;
FIGURE 5 shows an isometric view of the panel of FIGURE 4 when disassembled;
FIGURE 6 shows an oblique end view of a tray-type container;
FIGURE 7 shows an oblique end view of a deep box; and
FIGURE 8 shows a development of a composite panel for the tray and deep box of FIGURES 6 and 7.
Referring to FIGURE 1 of the drawings, reference numeral 10 refers to a container having end wall panels 12 and 14, and a partition panel 16 disposed between the end wall panels. It includes further a composite panel of cardboard, generally indicated by reference numeral 18. (See also FIGURE 2.) This composite panel 18 is made up of rear and front side panels 18.1 and 18.2 and floor panel 18.3.
Referring to FIGURE 2, the panel 18, when being assembled to form part of a container, folds along fold or crease lines 20.1 and 20.2, between the floor panel 18.3 and the side panels 18.1 and 18.2. The side panels 18.1, 18.2, and floor panel 18.3 have fold-over tabs 22.1, 22.2, and 22.3 respectively at their ends. In assembly, these tabs are folded over onto the end wall panels 12 and 14, the tabs folding along fold lines 22.4 and 22.5. The panel 18 is provided with contact adhesive coats along regions 24, 26 and 28.
The end wall panels 12 and 14, and the partition panel 16 are provided with contact adhesive coats along their peripheral faces, being end faces 12.1, 14.1, and 16.1, and lower faces 12.2, 14.2, and 16.2. (See FIGURES l and 3.) The end wall panels are further provided with side coats 12.3 and 14.3 along their outer side faces to co-operate with the fold-over tabs 22.1, 22.2, and 22.3.
Those portions 24.1 and 28.1 of the contact adhesive coats 24 and 28 co-operate with the coated faces 14.1 and 14.2 of the end wall panels. The portions 24.3 and 28.3 of the coats (i.e., on the tabs) co-operate with the side coats 14.3 on the sides of the end wall panels 14.
The end wall panels 12 and 14 and the partition panel 16 may be wholly or partly of timber. A construction in which these panels 'are partly of timber will be described more fully hereafter.
In use, panels such as 12, 14, 16, and 18 are suitably coated with contact adhesive as shown, and are then dispatched in unassembled form to the user. The user, when he requires the containers, will assemble the panels into container form, as shown for example in FIGURE 1. In such assembly the coated faces of the various panels are brought into registration and pressure is applied. The panels then stick together at those regions and the container is firm and strong. If desired or necessary, the contact adhesive coats may be activated immediately prior to use by wiping with a solvent. This activationmay be necessary if assembly takes place a long time after coatmg.
After a container has been filled with produce, a cover panel is fixed on top by convenient means permitting opening for inspection of the contents.
Different types of panels will be provided for different types of containers.
Referring now to FIGURES 4 and 5 of the drawings, there is shown an alternative end wall panel, partly of timber. Reference numeral 30 refers to an end wall panel comprising a peripheral timber framework, generally indicated by 32, and side panels 34. The timber framework comprises upper and lower longitudinal members 36 and I 38, and front and rear uprightmembers 40 and42. The longitudinal and upright members may be secured together, such as by staples,nails or adhesive, prior to the attachment of the side panels 34. But if desired, they may be held together merely by the side panels 34 when in position. These side panels may be of cardboard, corrugated or plain, of kraft, or of synthetic plastic sheet material which may be translucent or transparent. p
The framework and side panels are shown having coats of adhesive along regions 44 and 46 for securing them together. This adhesive need not necessarily be a contact adhesive.
In use, the panel may be used in the place of timber panels in the making of containers for example, for agricultural produce. Accordingly, these panels may be used \as end wall panels and partition panels in the manufacture of containers, as described.
As abovementioned, different types of containers can be made in accordance with the invention.
Referring now to FIGURES 6, 7, and 8 of the drawings, there are shown a shallow tray-type container in FIGURE 6, and a deep box in FIGURE .7.
The tray container 50 of FIGURE 6 has a composite panel 18.6 similar to the composite panel for FIGURES 1 and 2, except that it has no tabs for, oo-operating with side coats, such as 14.3, on the end wall panels, and except that it has also top longitudinal strips 18.64. It has rear and front panels 18.61 and 18.62 corresponding to the panels 18.1 and 18.2 of FIGURES 1 and 2. .It has a floor panel 18.63 corresponding to the floor panel 18.3
of FIGURES 1 and 2. It also has adhesive coats corresponding to 2-4.1 and 28.1 for adhering to the end wall panels 14. This composite panel 18.6 looks very much like the composite panel 18.7 of FIGURE 7, except that panel 18.6 has no tabs 22.71, 22.72, 22.73, and 18.741. Furthermore, the side walls 18.61 and 18.62 are of'course shallower than the side walls 18.71 and 18.72.
In addition, the composite panel 18.6 has front and rear top longitudinal strips 18.64 secured by contact adhesive to the upper faces of the end wall panels 14 by contact adhesive coats 14.4. These coats or. others corresponding thereto are shown in greater detail in FIG- URES 3 and 4.
Referring now to FIGURE 7, there is shown a deep box 52 somewhat similar in construction to that of the tray 50 shown in FIGURE6, except that tabs are provided at the ends of the various panels constituting the composite panel shown indeveloped form in FIGURE 8. The container 52 of FIG. 7 may have end wall panels 14 or 30 of FIGURES 4 and 5 construction.
The rear and front panels 18.71 and 18.72 of this embodiment correspond to the rear and front panels 18.1
and 18.2 of the FIGURES 1 and 2 embodiment. This embodiment also has tabs 22.71 and 22.73 corresponding to the tabs 22.1 and 22.3. It has, however, in addition, the top longitudinal strips 18.74 and tabs 18.741 for the said strips. These tabs are secured to contact adhesive coats such as 14.31 and 30.31 (see FIGURES 3 and 4). The top longitudinal strips are secured to coats such as 14.4 and 30.4 (see FIGURES 3 and 4).
By way of explanation, a coat of contact adhesive will t 4 not adhere to anything except another coat of contact adhesive. It is thus possible to transport panels in'bul-k in stacks in un'assembled form, as long as the contact ad- [hesive coats do not come into contact with one another until assembly.
The applicant believes that the making of a container without nails and'such that it has an appreciable cardboard content, brings about significant savings in material and labour.
