Definitions

  • This invention refers to a cardboard box of the type used for example in fruit transport and, more specifically, the type structured on the basis of a single strip body scored to form a block-shaped rectangular container open at the top.
  • the aim of the invention is to attain a box which is structurally simple, easy to assemble, and very resistant to the type of stacking for which such boxes are normally used.
  • each extension of each said end is connected to the adjacent half of said end by a fold line corresponding with the vertical edge of the box, while the end sector is connected to that corresponding end half of the wall by three fold lines, one of which is substantially displaced toward the centre of the end in relation to the previous one, while the other two are displaced outward.
  • the section of the double fold line referred to above between said end fold lines and, specifically, those furthest displaced outwards, takes the form of a cut line establishing a special arrangement for the area defined between them to create a type of prismatic column, as will be seen in full detail below.
  • each lateral extension of each end are designed to frame the inside and outside of the associated end area of the side so that a triple wall is formed in said zone which, with the double wall of the end, creates maximum structural rigidity, while the columns formed in association with the vertical corners of the box enable the boxes to be stacked, also ensuring their complete lateral stability.
  • the cardboard box proposed in the invention is structured on the basis of a single one-piece strip body on which a central sector (1) is formed, which is the bottom of the box, fundamentally rectangular, and delimited by fold lines (2-2') linking said bottom (1) to the sides (3): said fold lines (2), have circular ventilation holes (4) between bottom (1) and sides (3), while said sides have, on their free edge and at the middle level, the classical recess (5) cut to aid in this airing or ventilation of the interior of the box.
  • the central sector (1) extends into its double ends (7) with an initial or adjacent area in correspondence with said reference (7) and an end (8) related to the former by a double fold line (9) so that it can fold over on to the inside face of the latter: the two halves of each end have openings (10) which are aligned when folded, to form the handles for the box.
  • Each end (7-8) has outer or lateral extensions which in turn define two sectors (11) and (12) corresponding to halves (7) and (8) referred to above, linked together by prolongations (9') of the double fold line (9): the inside or adjacent sector (11) is associated with the half (7) of the corresponding end along a single fold line (13) coinciding with the corresponding vertical corner of the box as a unit once assembled.
  • the end sector (12) is connected to the associated external or outer half (8) of the wall along three fold lines: one is an internal fold line (14) substantially displaced inward in relation to the fold line (13) of the adjacent or internal half, while the two other fold lines (15-15') form a small crease (16).
  • the external trace of the double line (9-9') referred to above linking fold lines (14) and (15) becomes a cutting line (17) which, as seen from figures 2 and 3, makes it possible, with the wing between said lines (14) and (15), to form a diagonal wall as part of a prismatic column to reinforce the vertical corners of the box.
  • the outer half (8) of the end can fold on to its internal half (7), at the same time as folding the outer sector (12) of the side extensions of the end walls on to their adjacent sector (11), while said extensions fold at right angles along fold line (13) and obtusely along fold line (14) with the parallel conformation of the crease (16), framing the sectors (11) and (12) of the extensions of the end walls to the corresponding outer part of the side walls (3), to which they are secured preferably with adhesive, although this may also be done by stapling: thanks to the crease (16), the area (18) forms a diagonal wall which helps to create a triangular reinforcement column for the box, ending at the bottom in the opening (19) in to which, when the boxes are stacked, the angular flange (20) can fit which is formed in the opening of the box immediately below and which, as is seen particularly in figure 3, projects substantially above the general plane of the opening of the box.
