Definitions

  • This invention relates to a blank for a box comprising two pairs of fold lines which define
  • the invention also relates to a box made by folding said blank about all its fold lines and directing the corner braces towards one another, whereby the liner extends on the inner surface of the box.
  • the invention also relates to an assembly of the box, described hereinbefore, and a cover box, which is considerably higher than the side panels of the box.
  • a box for packaging and shipping flowers or the like comprises a box 1 for actually containing the flowers and a cover 2.
  • the box 1 is folded from a square blank as shown in Fig. 5.
  • the blank is provided with four folding lines 8, respectively parallel to the four edges of the blank.
  • the folding lines 8 enclose a bottom panel 10.
  • Folding lines 9, which are continuations from folding lines 8, define squares in the corners of the blank. In these squares, diagonal folding lines 7 extend from the corner point of the blank to the point where the folding lines 9 intersect.
  • Two folding lines 9 and a folding line 8 thus define a side panel 3.
  • the box according to the invention is formed with a bottom panel 10, side panels 3, and inwardly directed braces 5. Braces 5 divide the box into compartments in which bunches of flowers, not shown, can be placed (Fig. 3).
  • the box shape can be stabilized by fixing means.
  • braces 5 are interconnecting braces 5 at the corners between the sidewalls 3, so that braces 5 remain freely rotatable relatively to the corner, thereby creating a flexible division into compartments.
  • braces 5 are shortened somewhat by cutting out pieces along lines 6 at the corner points of the blank.
  • the blank is made of water-tight material, e.g. corrugated cardboard with a water-tight coating of, for example, wax, flowers can be transported in water.
  • water-tight material e.g. corrugated cardboard with a water-tight coating of, for example, wax
  • the cover 2 which has a top panel and four sidewalls (Fig. 2).
  • the height of the cover 2, i.e. the sidewalls thereof, is considerably in excess of the height of the side panels 3 of box 1, to permit long-stemmed flowers to be packaged in the box.
  • the cover can additionally serve as a support or stand for the box for the purpose of displaying the flowers. If desired, the walls of the cover can be provided with suitable advertising.
  • grip openings 4 are formed in the four side panels of the box 1 and cover 2 in such a manner that, in the assembled condition, grip openings 4 of the box 1 and cover 2 are respectively in alignment.
  • the invention has the advantage that repacking is unnecessary, so that the risk of transmitting diseases is minimized.
  • a further important point is that even the last bunch of flowers present in a box according to this invention keeps standing in a substantially upright position so that it is attractively presented and vendible.
