C. L. WHITEFORD SHIPPING AND PILSENCY BOX 2' Sheets-Sheet l Filed July 7, 193B uliiilwillluv' MMM y INVENTOR ff f 'ATTORNEYS Oct. 17, 1,939. c. L. WHITEFORD SHIPPING AND FILING BOX Filed July 7, 1938 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Pumas on. 11, 193s UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ZChims.
This invention relates to an improved shipping and ling box.
The invention has for its general object the provision of a simple and inexpensive cardboard l box adapted for shipping and filing rectangular flat articles and for spacing such articles slightly apart.
A further object resides in the provision of a box having a lining of corrugated material, pref- 10 erabiy in a singlelpiece, which corrugated material defines the inner bottom and opposite side walls of the box whereby the valleys between the corrugations afford guiding slots for articles placed in the box for shipment or filing.
1I A further object of the present invention resides in the provision of a simple and cheap box adapted for use in a shipping container for articles such as photographic lantern slides and which container is of such shape and conguration that it 2o is adapted for subsequent use as a idling box from which any one slide may be conveniently removed.
Further and other objects of the present invention will be hereinafter set forth in the accompanying specification and claims and shown in g5 the drawings which show by way of illustration a preferred embodiment and the principle thereof and what I now consider to be the best mode in which I have contemplated of applying that principle. Other embodiments of the invention eman ploying the same or equivalent principle may be used and structural changes made as desired by those skilled in the art without departing from the present invention and within the spirit of the appended claims.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the complete box with a portion of the cover broken away to show the interior construction and to show the manner in which articles are received and re- 4 tained in the box;
Fig. 2 is a detail sectional view taken substantially on line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a view showing the inner corrugated lining and the manner in which it is shaped and 45 formed prior to insertion in the body of the box;
Fig. 4 is a detail view taken substantially on line 4 4 of F18. 3;
Fig. 5 is a perspective view partly in section showing the manner of construction; and
50 Fig. 61s a detail sectional view taken substantially on line 6 5 of Fig. 5.
In the drawings, i (see Figs. 2 and 5) designates a set-up cardboard box of usual construction. I i designates the customary cardboard box cover. Ilia and lia designate a glued-on paper cover for the box and cover. The paper covering ila may be provided with suitable advertising matter and instruction data. etc.
Referring now to Fig. 3. in this figure, i2 designates a flat sheet of corrugated material such as corrugated paper. The sheet is blanked out to proper size to form a lining for the box l0. Itis then scored with two rows of scorings il. Such scorings deform the corrugations downwardly and permit the bending up of the corrugated sheet into a general U-shape with sharp angles along the score lines. The ends of the corrugated sheet are also rolled down ilat as indicated at Il in Fig. 3. This rolled-down portion I4 provides a ilat surface on which the wrapper may be glued. After scoring the corrugated sheet in the manner just described, it is bent into a general U-shape and iitted down within the set-up cardboard box I0. As a final step, the upper margins illb oi the box wrapper Illa are folded over the portions I4 and glued thereto. This gluing operation secures the corrugated liner in position within the cardboard box. The box is now complete and ready for use. When the box is completed, it will be understood that the corrugated material deflnes the inner bottom and opposite side walls of the box. The valleys and ridges of the corrugations on the bottom and opposite side walls of the lining are in alignment and accordingly the valleys aiford guiding slots for articles of rectangular shape, see for example the lantern slides generally designated I5 in Figs. l and 2. The box or carton may be used as a shipping container and after receipt, a customer may use the same box as a ling box for the articles. The ridges of the corrugatlons serve to slightly space the articles apart. In this way protection is afforded to the articles during shipment and the spacing between the articles also facilitates the removal of any single slide or article when the box is used for filing purposes. The slight spacing between the articles facilitates inspection of designating indicia on the slides so that a selected slide can be picked out v for removal.
I claim:
1. A shipping and filing box for the purpose described comprising a set-up cardboard box with a cover and including in combination the corrugated lining ior the bottom and two opposite side walls of the box with corrugations extending in alignment and across the bottom and facing inwardly to afford therebetween -a plurality of guiding slots for the reception of a plurality of articles, said corrugations being scored to aiford angle bending of the lining at the inner section of the 10 lmaterial with valleys between the con'ugations on the sides and bottom in alignment for receiving and guiding tint articles. .said corrugations on the sides and bottom serving to space one article from the next yadjacent article, said corrugated material comprising a single pieoeoi material oi' a U continuation having the oorrugntions adjacent the marginal top portionsl ot the lining iiattened for the Purpose described.
