Claims.
This invention relates to cartons and has more particular reference to cartons of the type adapted to be used for both shipping and display purposes.
One object of the invention is to provide a carton equally adapted to be used as a shipping container and to display the merchandise contained therein.
Another object of the invention is to provide a carton, as characterized above, including a box body having a movable tray mounted therein and. provided with a handle for pulling the tray up to an inclined display position, whereby merchan dise piled on the tray will be brought into full View.
Another object of the invention is to provide a carton, as characterized above, which, when the movable tray therein is pulled up to display position, will permit access to the entire contents of the carton without necessitating the handlin of the contents by prospective customers.
Another object of the invention is to provide a carton, as characterized above, wherein the mo able tray extends longitudinall of the box body and is provided with a central transverse up wardly extending handle and a plurality of spaced transverse score lines, whereby, when the handle is pulled upwardly, the tray will provide a pair of oppositely disposed and oppositely inclined support platforms extending downwardly from the handle, for holding the contents of the carton in displayed position readily visible to prospec-- tive customers.
A further object of the invention is to provide a carton, as characterized above, which is simple in construction, economical to manufacture, and which will permit of the attractive packing and display of merchandise.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent in the following specification, when considered in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Fig. 1 is a plan view, with parts broken away, of a carton embodying the present invention;
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view similar to Fig. 2, but showing the cover member removed and the tray pulled up to display position;
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the box body, with the cover removed and the tray pulled up to display position; and
Fig. 5 is a plan View of the removable tray.
In general, the display carton of the present invention comprises a box body having a removable cover and provided with a longitudinally extending movable tray member having a plurality of trz'l-nsverse fold lines providing an upwardly extending central handle portion by means of which the tray member may be pulled up to provide a pair of oppositely disposed and oppositely inclined supporting walls to hold the contents of the carton in displayed position.
Referring now to the drawings, there is shown a display carton comprising a box body l0 having a bottom wall ii. side walls l2, l3, and end walls M, 15; a removable flanged cover member l0 adapted to telescope over the top edges of the box body; and a foldable tray member ll removably mounted Within the box body.
The box body ll) may be of any usual construction and may be made of any suitable material. ireferably, and in the particular embodiment shown, the box body is made of a single piece of cardboard with the end and side walls folded upwardly and suitably secured together, as by Scotch tape or glued strips of paper binding in the usual manner of constructing such. types of cardboard boxes.
Mounted within the box body and wholly unsecured thereto is the tray member ii. The tray member may be made of any suitable material. Preferably, and. in the particular embodiment shown, the tray member is made of cardboard.
As shown in Fig. 5, the tray member is from a single sheet of cardboard and is generally rectangular in outline, except for a pair of opposed V-shaped notches l3, l9 having rounded edges positioned centrall of the tray member. The notches I8, is are connected by a central transverse score or fold line 29 which divides the tray member into twoportions 2!, 22 of identical size and shape. The portion M is divided into a handle forming panel orsection 23, a display panel orsection 24, a support panel orsection 25, and end Wall forming panel orsection 26, by means of spaced transverse score or fold lines El, 28 and 29.
The portion 22 is also divided into a handle forming panel orsection 30, a display panel or section 3!, a support panel orsection 32, and an end wall forming panel orsection 33, by means of spaced transverse score orfold lines 34, 35 and 36. The panels orsections 39, 35, 32 and 33 correspond in size and shape to the panels orsections 23, 24, 25 and 26, respectively.
The width of each of the handle-formingsections 23, 30 and thesupport sections 25, 32 is substantially equal to the height of the side walls of the box body, and the combined width of thedisplay sections 24 and 3! is equal to substantially the length of the bottom of the box body.
This construction permits the twoportions 25, 22 of the tray member to be folded downwardly about the central fold line 20, then outwardly about thefold lines 21, 34, then upwardly about thefold lines 28, 35, and then inwardly about the fold lines 29., 36, and mounted in the box body It), as shown in Fig. 2. When the tray mem her is mounted in the box body, as above described, and shown in Fig. 2, the twohandle forming areas 23, 30 are brought together and ex tend vertically upward from the bottom of the box body to form ahandle 31, which also forms a transverse partition wal1 dividing the interior of the box body in half. Thedisplay sections 24 and 3! are positioned fiat against and extend the full length of the bottom of the box body; thesupport sections 25, 32 extend upwardly from the bottom of the box and lie flat against the end walls l4, respectively, of the box; and the end wall sections 2'6, 33 extend inwardly in a horizontal plane.
When the tray member is to be raised to display position as shown in Fig. 3, the cover of the box is removed and thehandle 31 pulled upwardly. This action results in thesupport areas 24, 3| being raised to opposed inclined positions extending downwardly from the handle to the bottom of the box; thesupport sections 25, 32 move I downwardly into fiat engagement with the bottom of the box; and theend wall sections 26, 33 move downwardly into engagement with the end walls of the box body I4, t5, respectively, all as shown in Fig. 3.
A display carton constituted as above described can readily be made to simulate a basket. This is shown in Fig. 4, where the side and end walls of the box body and the top portion of thehandle 31 have printed or pasted thereon a basket weave design to make the box body look like a basket. To further this basket appearance, thehandle 31 may have a pair ofopenings 38, 39 formed therein by cutting aligned corresponding pairs ofopenings 40, 4| and 42, 43 in thesections 23, 3t and 24, 3| respectively, as shown in Fig. 5. By forming theopenings 38, 39 in thehandle 31, as above described, and using thearea 44 between the openings for advertising,.thehandle 31 will have the appearance of the usual basket handle.
While the operation of the display carton is believed obvious, it is shown as bein used to contain and display small cellophane bags filled with candy or other confections. As shown in Fig. 2, a plurality of small cellophane bags, filled with candy, are placed in the box on both sides of the transverse partition formed by the handle when depressed. These bags are piled on each other in layers until the box is full. The bags are positioned so that any advertising matter thereon will be on the top surface.
When the handle is pulled upwardly, the bags are moved together to the position shown in Fig. 3. Theend sections 26, 33 assist in holding the bags together as they change. position. After the handle has been pulled up, the bags will be supported, by theinclined sections 24, 3| in a position to be readily visible to prospective customers. Thesupport sections 25, 32 and theend wall sections 26, 33 engage the end walls [4, [5 of the box body to retainthe tray in its raised display position. The weight of the bags will also assist to hold the tray in its raised display position.
From the'ioregoing, it readily will be seen that there has been provided a carton in which mer- 4 chandise can be packed and shipped and which may be easily and simply converted into a display carton by pulling up the handle 3! of the movable fold-able tray member to bring the entire contents of the carton into position to be seen and removed individually.
