Abstract: This relates to the formation of a carton or tray wherein a face panel is supported from a base panel by a plurality of struts each having a glue tab which is to be bonded at a local area only of the base panel. It has been found that the necessary glue or adhesive may be applied to the specific areas of the base panel by using a continuous adhesive applicator while at the same time eliminate any alignment of the blank with the adhesive stripe applicator by simply forming the base panel with longitudinally extending longitudinally spaced cut-outs leaving only those areas of the base panel which underlie the glue tabs and wherein when a continuous stripe of adhesive is to be applied, it is applied to only those portions of the base panel which do underlie the glue tabs.

Abstract: A collapsible carrier for bottled beverages which is formed from a blank of paperboard or similar material, cut and creased so that it may be folded and glued to establish, when set up, a bottom, upstanding side and end walls, and a handle and partition structure which includes a longitudinal center partition and three cross partitions on opposite sides thereof to divide the carrier into eight bottle receiving cells with the cross partitions providing two plies of blank material between points of bottle contact and with the center partition providing two plies of material between transverse pairs of bottles.

Abstract: There is disclosed a carton for handling the preparation of a bakery product, Such as a sheet cake, which is characterized by a modified Simplex type tray formed with a cut and scored blank of paperboard, which may be furnished the user in flattened form for ready erection into a shallow depth tray structure suitable for preparation therein of a sheet cake including baking in a conventional oven, icing and/or decorating without removal from the tray, cutting for serving, with consistent portion control, obtainable by following guide means on the tray walls, and releasing and dropping the side and end walls to enable access to portions adjacent the walls for easy serving, the walls being refoldable to upstanding position for receiving a telescoping lid when all the product has not been removed for serving.

Abstract: A multi-cell tray-type rectangular carton is disclosed which is formed in collapsed condition from a cut and scored blank of paperboard, or similar foldable sheet material, and which is adapted to be opened up into a tube with two rows of article receiving pockets in side by side relation and separated by a double thickness partition, with each row of pockets formed by depressing a cut and scored panel, which is taken from the top wall, and which is depressed so that a portion lies on the bottom wall with abutment forming edges which engage cooperating edges of panels hinged to the bottom edge of the double thickness partition and which hold the panel in cell forming position.

Abstract: A tray-type container and a method of forming the same is disclosed wherein the container is formed from a single blank of paperboard having a coating of a film material which will withstand oven temperatures commonly employed in bakeries, the container having, when fully set up, a rectangular bottom wall forming panel with hingedly connected upstanding sidewall and end wall forming panels which are integrally connected at the corners by pairs of triangular web members folded upon each other and against the outside faces of the inner end wall panels where they are secured by outer end wall panels hinged to the top edges and folded downwardly into overlying relation with the folded web members and the inner end wall panels, which outer end wall panels have marginal strips turned under the bottom wall and sealed to end margins of the latter.

Abstract: A collapsible carrier for bottled beverages which is formed from a blank of paperboard, or similar material, cut and creased so that it may be folded and glued to provide, when set up, a bottom, upstanding side and end walls and a handle and partition structure which includes a multi-ply, longitudinal center partition and cross partitions on opposite sides thereof which divide the carrier into upwardly opening bottle receiving cells with the cross partitions being taken from the material forming the longitudinal partition and providing two plies of the blank material between points of bottle contact and with the center partition providing at least two plies of material between pairs of bottles and including a reinforcing panel which is folded upwardly from a hinged connection with a longitudinal partition panel and which is also folded upon itself.
