PAPER BOX.
lE?JSCIFICA'I'ION forming part of Letters Patent No. 340,058, dated April 13, 1886.
Application filed August 17, 1885. Serial No. 174,580.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANK M. Ovnirr, of Birmingham, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Paper Boxes 5 and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference .marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this specication, and represent, in-
Figure l, the blank as cut ready to. be set up; Fig. 2, a perspective view of a part of the box, illustrating the manner of setting up; Fig. 3, a view of a portion of the box as set up, showing the interlocking devices enga-ged Fig. li, a transverse section of the box set up, through the tongues a c; Fig. 5, a Vertical central section through one of the tongues e; Fig. 6, a perspective view of the open box complete.
This invention relates to an improvement in that class of paper boxes which are cut with the sides, ends, and bottom in a single piece, and adapted to be bent into box shape and scoured without paste, and so that the blanks from which the boxes are made may be furnished to the trade fiat and set u p by consumers as required, and so that a great saving is made in transportation and storage over what would be the case were the boxes shipped and stored in the set-up condition, the object of the invention being the construction of the larger class of boxes, such as used for shoes,cor sets, &c., and which are usually provided with removable covers, but adapted to boxes of various sizes and for various purposes where a removable coveris desirable, or for open boxes without a cover; and the invention consists in the peculiar eut of the blank, as hereinafter described, and adapted to be set up into box shape.
In Fig. l I show the blank as cut from the sheet complete and ready to be set up. Broken lines indicate the scores for bending, and solid lines indicate the cuts.
A is the bottom of the box, upon each side of which is one side, B, ofthe box, and at each end of the bottom portion is one end, C, of the box. Each side .has an extension, D,
at each end. On each side ot1 the ends, and
(No model.)
about midway, a tongue, a, is formed, here shown as semicircular in shape, and at each end of each side a cut, b, is made transversely on the score-line between the sides and their extensions. This cut b in length corresponds to the width of the tongues a. Near the outer edge of each extension a longitudinal slit, d, is cut, extending from the score-line outward. Each end is constructed with a longitudinal extension, E, having tongues e projecting therefrom, each tongue corresponding to one of the slits d in the extensions of the two sides. This completes the blank. It is set up by bending the sides B B upward from the bottom, and turning the extensions D inward, as seen in Fig. 2.
The length of the two extensions should be such as to substantially meet at the center. Then the end C is turned up against the two extensions, the tongues a passed inward through the slits b, and then the flap E turned inward and over the extensions, the tongues e e inserted through the slits d d, as seen in Figs. 3 and '5. The tongues a are turned back against the inside ofthe extensions D, as seen in Figs. 3 and 4.
The flap covers the upper edge of the extensions D D, and so as to give a neat nish to the ends, and also add great strength to the box.
Thus constructed, the box is very strong and firm, substantially as much so as if the parts were pasted together as in a pasted box.
The cover, if one be desired, is made like the box, and the blank, Fig. l, may be considered as the cover for a telescopic box, it only being necessary to make the blank so much larger than the body of the box as to permit it to pass over the box.
IVhile I prefer the tongues a a on each side of the end portions to enter the corresponding slits, b,in the sides, and particularly so in boxes of considerable depth, they may be omitted, the flap, with its tongues engaged with the respective extensions of the sides, affording sufficient support to secure the box in its set-up position; and while I prefer the iiap E to turn over the extensions and form a iinish at the end of the box, the tongues may extend directly from the end of the box, as indicated in broken linesff at the right of Fig. l..
The blanks may be cut and furnished to IOC dealers and consumers and set up as required, and may, if occasion require, be opened and returned to the fiat condition.
This construction of box is particularly desirable for shoes and corsets, where it has been the more general practice to make the boxes rigid and pasted, as by it a great bulk is saved both in transportation and storage of the empty boxes.
I claim- The blank consisting` of the bottom portion, A, side portions, B B, and end portions, C C, the said side portions, B, constructed With a projection, D, at each end, the said projections having a longitudinal slit, d, formed in each, and the transverse slit b on the line between the sides and their respective extensions, the end portions constructed with trans-V versely-projecting tongues a a, corresponding to the slits b, and also constructed with 1ongitudinally-proj ecting tongues e e, corrponding to the slits d, substantially as described.
