Abstract: A closure structure for a container having end closures, one of the end closures being arranged to facilitate opening by a conventional type cutter, the closure being characterized by a diaphragm having an annular area therein with a thickness less than the thickness of the closure material, so that the annular area may be readily pierced and severed.
Abstract: The device protects a corner of an article, such as a sheet of glass, by receiving and cushioning the corner during shipment or storage of the article.
Abstract: A container has a dispenser bin at one of its ends. The side wall of the bin is formed with a retaining tab which is received in a slot in the container to restrict opening of the bin at an angle of less than 90.degree..
Abstract: A shipping container having stacking tabs projecting upwardly from certain walls thereof for receipt within openings in lower portions of similar containers.
Abstract: A device for protecting a corner of an article has a pair of main panels and a hollow internal member of substantial L-shape. The panels and the internal member are formed from a single blank of paperboard, or the like, and are interlocked to close the device.
Abstract: A one-piece, open top, tray type container having flanges on the end walls which engage upper portions of the side walls to form an interlocking connection therebetween which does not require outside securing means.
Abstract: A feed mechanism for packing material such as carton blanks is disclosed. Blanks are arranged in a hopper where they are stacked between a pair of vertical members having their lower edges spaced above a support table for advancement of the bottommost blank by a shuttle into the feeding means. The spacing between one of the vertical members above the support is greater than the thickness of the blank and less than twice the thickness thereof and during feed movement a roller is biased against the feed blank to urge it against the bottom of a member. Thus a gate is provided between the bottom of a vertical member and the support.
Abstract: A partial interior end wall of a carton is formed from a pair of flaps, one of which has a projection which is sealed to the other flap providing improved wall structure in a carton formed from a nestable blank.
Abstract: An improved nozzle for electrophoretically coating the interior surface of a workpiece, such nozzle having an electrically conductive linear portion corresponding to a selected linear dimension of the workpiece, an electrically conductive head portion connected and disposed substantially normal thereto and corresponding to a closed bottom end of the workpiece, inlet tubing connected to a discharge orifice in the head portion of the nozzle for delivery of electrophoretic material onto the interior surface of the workpiece, and wherein associated means are provided for moving the workpiece and the nozzle relative to one another about an axis fixed relative to the workpiece and the nozzle and in a direction lateral to the selected linear dimension of the workpiece.
