PACKAGING.
Application 1aed Aprii' 9,
cult to pack these products inbulk. in -an orderly and uniform way. The ordinary and usual methods of wrappingthese products consist in manually wrapping the products in y paper or inplacing the goods in boxes or cartons',- These methods of Wrapping have many disadvantages. In the case of wrapping in 20 paper, unshapely, irregular and nonuniform packages are obtained. If the products are fresh or defrosted from the frozen condition, the may be damp or wet, and various means an precautions must be taken to prevent soiling of ones clothes or contamination of foodstuffs. In cases where a box or carton is emi ployed to wrap the product, a shapely package is obtained, but various means to prevent soiling of clothes and contamination of foodstuffs I. 3o must be provided. Still, further, when a box or carton is used, there is usually an excess of space. This is very objectionable, especially when it is' desiredl to place the package in cold storage to keep the product in the frozen;
es up more storage space V state, in that it ta than necessary, and cold storage space is expensive.
' I have found that I can overcome the above-A mentioned Vdisadvantages by disposing the l 40 product to be wrapped on a support and then wrapping the two together in a waterproof l material, whereby a uniform, shapely and ornamental package is obtained. v
It is, therefore, an object of this/invention to wrap comestibles, such as fillets of fish, cuts of meat, dressed fish and the like, in their fresh or frozen state and to form packages which are uniform, shapely, ornamental and l 'do not have a large excess of vacant spaces.
It is a further object of this invention to wrap comestibles of the type mentioned by placing the comestibles on a support and then to form a package by Wrapping the support and fish in some waterproof material.
' ages of frozen 192,8. Serial No. 268,394.
Another object ofthis invention is-to produce substantially uniform and shapely packfillets of fish which may be easily and conveniently handled,vpackedl in bulk in an" orderly and uniform manner, or
' kept in cold storage until they are ready for distribution or use;
A specificv obj ect of this invention is to pro,-
duce a package containing a waxed cardboard support on which is disposed a. fillet and a waxed paper wrapper enveloping saidsupport and fillet; A
Further objects will appear from the following description, appended claims and the accompanying drawings which form a part of this specification and in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a package of a fillet'of fish wrapped according to my'.
invention; and' Figure 2 is a vertical section through a large carton or container in which the packages ar'e packed in bulk for shipment or otherwise.
According to my invention, I place the co.v
mestible on a support and then wrap the two 'I together in a wrapper, preferably of a waterproof material. v
In the drawings inv which I have represented one modification of inyinvention, the reference numeral 1 designates a frozen fillet of fish. The fillet 1 is placed on a support 2 with its flat surface in contact therewith and its rounded or curved portion uppermost. Various materials may be used for the support. I have found that a strip of cardboard functions satisfactorily.
In order to enhance the appearance of the package, I may make the support in various shapes and forms and especially in shape of various kinds of fish. When a transparent wrapper is used, the appearance of the packing or ornamenting the support. I have orna- .mented the support by providing it with various colored pictures and /or printed matter such as recipes. To prevent any deleterious effect to the support that l:may be .occasioned by the moisture or dainpness presentin fresh or defrosted comestibles of the above-mentioned type, I may waterproof or otherwise treat the support. Various Waterproofing compositions and substances may be used. I have in practice found that paraffin wax effects the desired functions and gives satisfacage may still further be enhanced by decoratsupport.
. per may proo After the fillet has been placed upon the cardboard or' other support, as above described, both the support and the comestible are Wrapped together in some wrapping material 3. Due to the support and the disposition of the fillet thereon, the wrapping may be done either manually or-by machine. Preferably, I perform the wrapping operation by machine. By so doing the sanitary conditions are better and AI obtain more uniformly wrappedpackages. l
The wrapper may encompass or envelope the support land fillet in any manner whatsoever. I have shown it as having its longitu dinal edges 4 overlapping and the ends 5 flapped over. It is, of course, apparent that the Wrapping may be made so as to be of any other shape. If desired, the wrapper may be sealed at its overlapping edges 4 and flaps 5, thus roviding a substantially sealed Wat-erfp package. By this means, if the fillet should become defrosted it would not soil ones clothing or contaminate comestibles with which it may come in contact. l
The wrapper 3 may be any` well-known waterproof material such as waterproof paper, waterproof parchment paper, sheets of regenerated'cellulose or metallic foils. Preferably, I use Wax paper. If desired, the wrapalso be ornamented in any manner whatsoever.
have definite and uniform dimensions.
The individual package lends itself to be uniformly packed in bulk in cartons, boxes or other containers as clearly illustrated. in Figure 2. In packing, the individual packages 6 are arranged in staggered relation'in rows or layers inthe container 7 In the first or bottom layer 8, the individual packages are arranged end to end and/or side by side With their fiat surfaces in contact with the bottom of the container and their curved surfaces uppermost. In other words, the packages in the rst layer are placed with the fillet surfaces upward. The second layer 9 is formed by placing the individual packages with their rounded or fillet surfaces downward and bridging the spaces 10 formed by two adjacent packages in the bottom layer. In other words, the packages of the second row or layer 9 are arranged in staggered relation to the packages in the layer. 8 with their rounded surfaces contacting. The` third layer l1 is similar in arrangement to layer 8 and layer l2 corresponds to layer 9. 'These layers are repeated until the container is full. In this way I can pack in bulk the individual packages of fish in a uniform and orderly manner.
Packages of fish, prepared as above-described, are of regular contour or shape and Due to the ornamentation and shape of the support and/or the wrapper, the package has an ornamental appearance. Since the support4 has been waterproofed and the wrapping paper is of a waterproof material, defrostinr of the frozen comestible will in no way afect the package. The water, moisture or dampness will be retained within the package, and thus."
it will be unable to effect any injurious results. yThe package is also capable of being very easily handled and uniformly packed in bulk, as above described. It has very little excess space and, therefore, when placed in cold storage it will occupy `a minimum amount of space.
I do not intend to limit myself to the exact details above-described, since it is obvious -that various modifications and changes can be made Without departing from the nature of the invention.
I claim: l
