" Patented July 13, 1948 45,152 sun-rind memes William mus Poole, Baltimore, Md, asslgnor to Bethlehem Steel Company, a corporation of Application February 25, 1943, Serial No. 477,095
12 Claims. (01. 208-60) My invention relates to apackage for goods which are subject to deterioration under the influence of moisture, and particularly to a package for iron or steel sheets, commonly known as black plate. Such sheets are subject to rusting or other attack by moisture and as a result it is necessary to protect them from moisture, particularly during shipment from manufacturer to customer. Various methods are used to protect such sheets during shipment, such as oiling the individual sheets, wrapping the bundles in moisture-proof paper and the like, but such methods are not entirely satisfactory.
It is an object of my invention to provide a package for steel sheets or the like which is hermetically sealed against air and moisture.
Another object of my invention is to provide a package in which steel sheets or the like can be transported without danger of rusting.
A iurther object of my invention is to provide a hermetically sealed package, the interior of which is filled with an inert atmosphere such as carbon dioxide gas or the like.
A further object is to provide a package for steel sheets or the like which is strong enough to withstand the stresses of handling and shipping.
Other objects of my invention will appear from the following description and from the drawings, in which Figure 1 is a view of a stack of sheets in the process of being packaged;
Fig. 2 is a view of the stack with the upper cover in place;
Fig. 3 show-s the apparatus for introducing the inert atmosphere into the package; and
Fig. 4 is a view of the finished package.
Referring to the drawings, ill is a table on which the packaging may be carried out. For convenience in handling, a wooden skid, including cross-pieces H and platform I! is usually provided in the packaging of steel sheets, although such a skid is not an essential element of my invention.
Upon the skid is placed the lower pan II, which is preferably made of sheet metal, the sides of which are provided with a bead l5 spaced a short distance from the upper edges thereof.
As shown in Figure 1, the sheets to be packaged are placed in a stack l1 upon the pan l3. As protection to the top sheet, a sheet ll of fiber board or the like may be placed on top of the stack, and a similar sheet may be placed beneath the bottom sheet of the stack.
Around the base of the stack l1 and within the sides of the pan are inserted the strips I! which extend several inches above the top of the pan and serve to protect the edges oi. the stacked sheets from the sealing material, as hereinafter described. The strips I! may conveniently be cut from reject'ed sheets of the material being packaged.
Referring to Figure 2, the pan II is next laced over the stack. The sides of pan 2| are provided with a bead 25, similar to the bead II on pan it.
Each of the pans II and II is preferably made of a single sheet of metal with the corners cut out and the sides bent over, the edges being welded to provide an air-tight and water-tight joint. The pans may however be made of any other material which is sufllciently strong and is impervious to air and moisture.
The combined height of the sides of the pans l3 and 2| is such that when they are placed over the stack II their outer edges are separated by a small space as shown at It, in Figure 2.
As the next step in packaging the stack of sheets, a flexible adhesive tape 21 is applied to the pans l3 and II to seal the space 2' between the pans. The tape 21 should be impervious to air and moisture. As a further precaution against leakage of air and moisture into the package, I apply to the tape 21 a coating 28 of moistu-reand air-impervious material. I have found that a mixture of methacrylate varnish and rubber enamel in equal proportions is suitable for this purpose.
It will be seen that the strips l9 (Figure 1) serve to protect the edges of the sheets contained in stack I! from any damage which might result from contact with the surface of tape 21.
Referring to Figure 2, the pan 2| is provided near the top with a hole 28, while, as shown in Figure 3, a hole 30 is provided in the opposite end of the pan near'the lower edge thereof. These holes serve as vents through which air is removed from the package and is replaced with an inert atmosphere such as carbon dioxide, which I have found suitable for the purpose, although any other inert gas, such, for example, as nitrogen, may be substituted for carbon dioxide.
Referring to Figure 3, ii is a high pressure cylinder of carbon dioxide gas in the form supplied by commercial producers of that and similar gases, the cylinder 3| being connected with tank 32 by pipe 33 and needle valve 34. A pressure gauge 35 is attached to tank 32. Tank 32 is connected by pipe 35 and electromagnetic valve 2! to the opening 30 near the bottom edge of pan 2|.
33 is a vacuum pump of standard design which is operated by electric motor 39 and is connected by pipes 40 and 4| to the hole 23 near the top of pan 2!.
The exhaustion of air from the package and the introduction of carbon dioxide thereinto is controlled by the balance 42 which is pivoted at 43 on the support 44. To the balance 42 are afllxed the vertical tubes 45 and 46 which are connected at their lower ends by the tube 41 and are partially filled with mercury 48. The tube 45 is connected at its upper end to the vacuum line 40 by pipe 49 and flexible tubing 50. is a manometer of standard form which is connected to the pipe 49 by pipe 52. 53 and 54 are mercury switches 4 age is then suitably wired or strapped as shown at 53, using metal clips 50 to protect the edges of the package from damage by the tie wires.
Having thus described my invention, what I 5/claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patformed by said pans and sealing strip.
2. An article of manufacture, comprising two oppositely disposed pans for enclosing material to be packaged, material enclosed by said pans The operation of the above described mechanism is as follows.
A suitable amount of gas is introduced from cylinder 3i into tank 32 by opening needle valve 34, which is then closed. The amount of gas so introduced into tank 32 is not critical but I prefer to introduce into the tank an amount of gas equal to five or six times the cubic content of the package to be treated. Gauge may be used to determine the amount of gas introduced into tank 32.
With the balance 42 in the position shown in Figure 3, mercury switch 53 is open, while mercury switch 54 is closed, establishing the circuit which operates motor 39. Vacuum pump 38 is operated by motor 39 and exhausts air from the package and rat the same time from the tube therebycausing mercury to flow from tube 46 through tube 41 into tube 45. During this part of the cycle valve 31 is closed.
When a sufficient amount of mercury has been drawn into tube 45 the balance 42 is automatically tripped, thereby opening switch 54 and closing switch 53. Motor 38 accordingly stop and valve 31 is opened, allowing gas to fiow from tank 32 into the package. This relieves the vacuum in the package and in the lines 40, 4|, 49 and and permits the mercury to flow back into tube 46. When a sufficient quantity of mercury has flowed into tube 46 the balance 42 is again restored to the position shown in Figure 3 and the cycle is repeated.
The manometer 51 indicates the pressures at which the apparatus operates. I find a vacuum equal to 8 inches of mercury suitable for the vacuum phase of the cycle while pressure phase of the cycle should be continued until substantially atmospheric pressure has been reached in the package. These conditions may be obtained and/or varied by suitably weighting balance 42.
The cycle above described will be repeated as long as the gas pressure in tank 32 remains above atmospheric. I have found that six cycles will produce a carbon dioxide concentration in the package of about 90%, which is suflicient to protect steel sheets from rusting.
Upon the conclusion of the above operation, the pipes are removed from the package and the openings in the package are sealed as shown at 55 with tape or otherwise.
To protect tape 21 from damage during transit I cover it with strip 51 of sheet metal or the like (Figure 4) which rests on the beads l5 and 25, out of contact with the tape 21. may be held in place by steel strap 58. The pack- Strip 51 and separating the adjacent edges of said pans from each other, a flexible sealing strip lapping said adjacent edges and closing the space between them, a protective strip surrounding said flexible strip and tie wires surrounding and binding the above mentioned parts in substantially immovable relationship to one another.
