Substitute for abandoned application Serial No. 61,856, February 1, 1936, which is a division of application Serialy No. 692,937, October 10, 1933, which in turn is a division of application Serial N0. 631,682, September 3, 1932.
This application May 28, 1938, Serial No. 210,549
5 Claims.
My invention in this application which is a divisionl of application Serial No. 692,937, filed October 10, 1933, and which is a division of application Serial No. 631,682, filed September 3, i932, relates to containers and casings therefor and more specifically relates to drawers adapted to be pushed into and pulled from a casing made of suitable sheet material.
In general my invention embodies a container and casing combination made of sheet material such as cardboard or paper box board, corru-f.
gated board, fiber board, and/or any other material adaptable or adapted to be stampedand bent upon creased, scored, or otherwise formed on predetermined lines for the purposes hereinafter described after 'the same has been suitably cut, creased, stamped or blanked out in outline form.
Drawers of the type described above, must be suiciently rugged to withstand'the strains to which they are subjected in being pushed into and pulled from a casing to justify their construction from sheet material of the type described above; they must be of low cost and 'be adapted for shipment in a collapsed state.
Accordingly, objects of my invention are: tc provide means .for making inexpensive and yet rugged containers of" sheet material; to make novel containers adapted for shipment in R a n knock-down condition and arranged' to be simsures a secure support therefor, but also does not interfere with the packing of the collapsed containers for shipment.
Accordingly, then, further objects of my invention are: to provide novel handle constructions for collapsible containers which do not interfere with the collapsing of the containers into a substantially fiat unit; to provide a handle mounted in a novel depression formed in the front wall.
In pushing vand pulling the drawer from its I casing, it is subjected to shearing strains along the vertical edges of the front wall. I have discovered that by transferring these strains to the sidewalls, they can be distributed over a large area. and are therefore less likely to be destructive of the container.
Accordingly, still further objects of my invenl walls for securing them to each other; side walls secured to end walls by snap fasteners, etc.
Other objects of my invention are to provide in my `novel collapsible container; reinforcing blanks for aiding in holding the end and side walls to each other; means for producing smooth flush surface between the overlapping tongues and side walls.
There are other objects of my invention which together with the foregoing will appear in the detailed description of the drawing which isto follow in which:
Figure 1 shows a blank or development made from a sheet of material and adapted to be formed or folded into a container or file drawer having the side walls and tongues thereof secured by means of adhesive strips or the like laced through suitable perforations formed therein.
Figure 2 is a view in perspective showing a partially assembled or folded drawer made from the blank shown in Figure l.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary perspective view of one corner of the drawer before the extension of the side wall is folded against the inside of the tongues and sidewall and before the securing tape is inserted in the perforation therein.
Figure 4 is a detailed view of a modified form of perforation formed in the front wall to receive an ear or lug formed on the extension of the side wall. v
Figure 5 shows the manner of securing a strengthening channel strip to the side walls of a drawer like that shown in Figure 2.
Figure 6 illustrates a modified form of joint between the side wall and tongues formed by a piece of gummed tape or the like.
Figure 7 is a View in perspective showing a modified form of drawer partially assembled.
kReferring now to the drawing described above, and particularly to Figure 1 thereof, wherein I illustrate a blank from which a container of the class described may be constructed from a singie sheet of suitable material, it will be understood that the material is first cut, scored, stamped or blanked in any suitable manner.
As shown, I provide reinforcing strips of the material of the container for stiilening the side walls thereof and for securing the tongue in position. t
The blank is cut or stamped out and creased on lines l, 2, 3, 4, 5, and t to form a bottom i,
sides l. andenveloping orstiilening extensions or side wall extensions 9 lying beyond the'creases I and 6 respectively forajpurpoae to be hereinafter described. The also'fcomprisesa rear wall Il, and a ,tonguejii extending from each side thereof.v .'Ihe :tongues-inlay be more in the wail l and provide an opening through parueum1y-denedlfaslyinmbleyend the creases Y I and 2 respectiveLv,y cut edges 'l2 and I3V which separate theitsuea from the side walls I and extensions l. vIt will-also beseen that at eachl end ofthe extension' 2;"*1 form a lug or ear il from material cut from the-lower edge of the' form the front end of the drawer is similar to the portion adapted to form the rear-Eend thereof,
exactly the same shape as the front wall il'ex- 'ceptfthat the tongues on the auxiliary wall are shorter than the tonguesV I5 land extend only numeral Il. A handle 20 is adapted to be secured to the auxiliary wall Il inA a position to permit oneto grasp it through the perforation |1 in the front wall ywhen the auxiliary'wall is placed in the position shown in Figure l and the blank is form'ed into a drawer or container.
From Figures l and 2 it may be understood that-the thickness of the material from which the drawer is made is substantially equalto the thickness of the handle whereby the auxiliary wall I O, andv the handle secured thereto, are adapted to lie ilat on the front wall it, i. e., in surface contact therewith and in substantially the same plane as wall I6 to facilitate the packing and shipment of the blanks. The sides 8 are perforated as shown fat 2| and the tongues are perforated at 22.' The rear wall I0 and auxiliary wall I8 are perforated as shown at 23 and 24 respectively, to receive the ears Il on the extensions i in a manner to be described hereinafter. A section of material is also cut away for a short distance along the lines 5 and B between the walls I and extensions 9 to form notches 25 and 26 respctively. The side wall extensions 9 are scored at 2l to facilitate bending the same over the tongues and, i5 as hereinafter described. Strips of paper or muslin 28, carrying adhesive material are secured to the extensions 9, as
fshown in Figure l, to secure the parts of the drawer in position when it Vis foldedas hereinafter described. Said strips 28 may"`of "ebe carried by the tongues of the end wall or of the auxiliary wall, or by the bottom wall of the container or by any others-,portion of the container on which 'they may be mountedgcand may even be A supplied separately for use asherein V.described.
form the end ofthe container and.v that .the wall L" ...is bent up 150.118 ilt against the outside of the t'mig'iieJ l| In this" position', the perforations 22 in the-tongue will register` with the perforation 2| scribexas the apex of a reentrant angle formed Y in the 'tongue' `It will also be understood that tongue The portion of the Vblank adapted to e container.
It will be seen. however, before the strips `28 areadapted to enter theperforations 2|-22 that the extension l must be bent inwardly over the ltopoi' 4,the tongue such'that the inner end of the notch '2i will register with 4what I shall dewhenlthe extensions 0 are yfolded into position and the st 2l are adhesively secured to the Just described, and comprising tongues il disposed at each edge of a front wall '|I, see Figure outside ofb' container or wrappedl around the extensions" 9 .as described, that the ears or lugs M will nt into perforation 2l as shown in Fig- Iures 2 and 3 to holdjthe ends of the extension securely in position. `Figure 2 illustrates clearly the manner in which the eontainermay be aasembledand also shows the auxiliaryMfront wall frem'fwsn Il to thev 'peint designated by the cut along lines ll adjacent the crease 3| so that I8 carrying the handle 2l is registration with the perforation |I in the front wall Il.
In Figure 4, I illustrate another manner in which the notches 23 may be made. Instead of actually punching out a section of material, as will be understood in connection with the holes 23 above described, the material may be merely when the material is bent at right angles a portion 32 will project from aline coincident with the crease as shown and leavel a perforation I! into which the ends I4 may extend.
I may provide a channel strip Il, of U-shaped cross-section, adapted to llt over the upper edge of the wall I, tongue |I, and extension 2 to still further stillen the assembled drawer, if desired, as shown in Figure 5.
For instance in the form of container shown in Figure 2, the side wall extensions l may be made narrower as shown at 3l, Figure 5, so that a lipproperly proportioned, only a little pressure is required` to aillx the clipto the material.
Referring now to Figure 6, it will be seen that I contemplate strips of adhesive tape Il, adapted to extend from the bottom 'of the drawer up the side and over the-tongue which may be, used to fasten the wall and tongue together. As shown in this gure the extension 9 has been omitted' and the tongue is. placed o n thewtside of the sidewall 8. 'I'he 'adhesive strips 31 may be ovform'ed -with extensio'nfn adapted.- to be glued Thus, aslin Figure '7, the tape 28' may becarv, lried by the tongue to .thezouiside of the wall l and cover the, end of the tongue |I remote from its juncture with the walllll.' Y
Eromthe above description, it will be seer'rthat a drawer like that shown in' Figure 2, made from the blank shown in Figure l, comprises afront strains in being pushed into and out of a suitwal1""|0`,'"adapted to v.ble-subjected to transverse able container and 'that said wall is supported by and secured to side walls -8 of the drawer by v misiles Il adap'ted tqbe smi-.ably fastened .te the sidewalls totransmit saidstrains to the sald walls injthe'fform of tensile strains when the drawer is pulled open; and compressive strains When'the drawer 'is pushed closed.
This apnemon is a subsume for my abandoned application, Serial No. 61,856, iiled February 1, 1936.
Although I have herein illustrated various api plications oi my invention. it will be understood by those skilled in the art that it may take other forms and I do not wish to be limited thereby ex' -cept as set forth in the appended claims.
