Description
- This patent application claims priority to Provisional Patent Application No. 61/476,243 entitled STRENGTHENING INSERT FOR A CORRUGATED BOX and filed on Apr. 15, 2011, all of the substance thereof being hereby fully incorporated by reference herein.
- The invention concerns a strengthening mechanism for use within a corrugated structure. More specifically, the invention provides a removable, corrugated insert that is inserted into a corrugated box. Such corrugated insert operates to improve the compression strength of the corrugated box. This is particularly important when such corrugated box has one or more boxes stacked thereon.
- Record storage in the United States is a multi-billion dollar per year business. The need for all manner of businesses and industries to protect and store their written records has been well documented. Typically such printed/written records are collected and sent to one or more of the several thousand record storage centers in the United States.
- In one example, such records are stored within corrugated boxes fashioned for such purpose. Corrugated boxes are most often used because they are readily manufactured and are inexpensive, often costing less than one dollar to produce.
- Record storage centers are often large to very large warehouses suitable for storage of the boxes by stacking them one upon another. Each box when filled can weigh between thirty and fifty pounds. With such weights, boxes upon which other weighted boxes must be able to bear the weight of other boxes positioned thereon.
- Often, such boxes fail due to their inability to withstand the weights of the boxes stacked upon them. When such failure occurs, a solution is required. The typical solution has been to re-box a failed box (i.e., remove the failed box and move its contents to a new box). Re-boxing costs a client money which can be many times more expensive than the cost of the original box or even its transport from a client's office to the record storage center. Multiplied over several hundred thousand boxes, and potentially millions of boxes, costs for such re-boxing can become massive.
- What is needed therefore is a low-cost, highly effective way to pre-strengthen a non-failed box or otherwise strengthen a box prior to its failure. Such strengthening should enable a box to be used, in the instance in which a box has already been used, to continue to be used without it being re-boxed. The strengthening mechanism should be such that by its use it immediately improves the compression strength of the box in which it is placed.
- Accordingly, the invention provides a strengthening insert for placement within a container like a box. The strengthening insert comprises multiple parts including a first surface having a first connecting edge. A second surface is connected to the first surface along the first connecting edge; the second surface has a second connecting edge. The strengthening insert also comprises a third surface connected to the second surface along the second connecting edge; the third surface having a third connecting edge. Lastly, the strengthening insert comprises a fourth surface connected to the third surface along the third connecting edge. The fourth surface has a fourth connecting edge; the fourth surface is connected to the first surface along the fourth connecting edge.
- In practice, the strengthening insert is positioned within an inner surface of a box whereby each upright wall of the box is strengthened and supported by one surface of the strengthening insert.
- An alternative embodiment herein provides a strengthening insert for a corrugated box having four walls and a bottom. The strengthening insert herein comprised three parts. The first part of the strengthening insert is a first surface having a first connecting edge. A second surface is connected to the first surface along the first connecting edge; the second surface has a second connecting edge. Lastly, a third surface is connected to the second surface along the second connecting edge.
- The tri-partitioned insert is placeable within a corrugated box whereby the first surface is positioned about one wall of the corrugated box. The second surface is positioned about the bottom of the corrugated box, and the third surface is positioned about another wall of the corrugated box.
- Another embodiment herein is the combination of a strengthened corrugated box comprising a partially enclosed box having four connected vertical walls and an enclosed bottom. The enclosed bottom of the box is connected to all four connected box vertical walls. Each vertical box wall has an outer surface and an inner surface positioned oppositely to the outer surface. Each vertical wall has a top edge, a bottom edge that is parallel to and extends oppositely to the top edge, and a distance extending between the top edge and the bottom edge of each vertical wall. For this combination, a removable insert is positioned within the corrugated box. This combination of strengthened insert and box may include either the four-sided insert or the tri-partitioned insert.

FIG. 1 provides a perspective view ofinsert 5 prior to its insertion intobox 14.Insert 5 is designed to fit, preferably, snugly within the four walls ofbox 14. By the term “snugly” it is meant herein thatinsert 5 fits proximately adjacent to all of theinner walls 16 ofbox 14 such that eachside 6 ofinsert 5 substantially touchesinner walls 16 ofbox 14. Importantly,corners 8 ofinsert 5 align withcorners 20 ofbox 14 wheninsert 5 sits withinbox 14. Bysuch alignment insert 5 provides structural reinforcement tobox 14 about itswalls 18 and about itscorners 20. - As shown,
insert 5, which is a four-sided insert herein, is meant to slide withinbox 14, fit snugly therein and thereby provide additional structural integrity towalls 18 ofbox 14. To achieve that goal, the length and width ofinsert 5 are slightly less than the length and width of the inside ofbox 5. Persons of skill in the art will understand that the objective forinsert 5 is to provide a snug fit withinbox 5 will also allowinginsert 5 to be readily removed and placed upon demand by a user. - Herein, the material of
insert 5 preferably matches the material ofbox 14. For example, whenbox 14 is preferably made from one or known types of corrugate,insert 5 shall likewise be made from the same or similar material. Persons of skill in the art will understand that the term “corrugate” or “corrugate box” refer to well known boxes, e.g., file boxes, made worldwide from corrugate materials.Insert 5 andbox 14 may also be constructed from non-corrugate materials like all manner of plastics including but not limited to polypropylene, poly esters, the family of PETs, wood, steel, iron, aluminum, copper and all other usable materials suitable forinsert 5 andbox 14 herein. -
FIG. 2 shows the final fit ofinsert 5 intobox 14 as shown inFIG. 1 . Preferably,insert 5 sits flush (i.e., snugly) or substantially flush againstwalls 18 ofbox 5 in order to lendbox 14 added support that translates into additional strength, especially, but not only, compression strength. - As shown, sides 6 of
insert 5 cover at least about one-third to about one-half of the height ofinner walls 16.Sides 6 ofinsert 5 may cover between about one-half to about three-fourths of the inside ofbox 14. Regardless of the height ofinsert 5 withinbox 14, it should be high enough with respect to the height ofbox 14 to provide the desired structural support. Also, one of skill in the art will recognize thatinsert 5 may comprise no more than two sides and no more than three sides as alternative embodiments herein, though fourside insert 5 as described hereinabove is preferred. -
FIG. 3 shows a perspective alternative embodiment ofinsert 25 herein which has three sections; afirst surface 30,second surface 35 connected to first surface along line ofconnection 33, andthird surface 40 connected to surface 35 by line ofconnection 33. Similarly to insert 5 ofFIG. 1 , insert 25 is shown held abovebox 14 prior to its placement intobox 14. In practice, insert 25 is placed intobox 14.Insert 25, unlikeinsert 5, is held adjacent to two vertical box walls and also to the bottom ofbox 14. By coverage of the bottom ofbox 14 withinsert 25, and in particularsecond surface 35 ofinsert 25, all four vertical walls are reinforced at thebottom corners 42 ofbox 14. By such reinforcement ofcorners 42,corners 20 ofbox 14 are also at least partially reinforced and thereby strengthened. -
First surface 30 andthird surface 40 ofinsert 25 are held adjacent to the inner surface ofbox 14. That is,first surface 30 andthird surface 40 are held flush, or substantially flush, againstinner walls 16 ofbox 14. By such positioning, twoinner walls 16 ofbox 14 are directly reinforced and thereby strengthened. - Without a
strengthening insert 5 being used in a box like a corrugated box of the kind envisioned herein, structural box failure due to compression, most especially, is all but certain over time. Currently, boxes without the strengthening insert herein have a compression strength ranging from about greater than zero pounds to less than about seventy-five pounds.
