  • Patent number: 9856073
    Abstract: A hanger support includes a unitary structure defining a set of panels comprising a center panel, a first end panel extending from the center panel along a first longitudinal direction, and a second end panel extending from the center panel along a second longitudinal direction, the second longitudinal direction opposing the first longitudinal direction. The hanger support includes a first hinge joint disposed between the first end panel and the center panel, a second hinge joint disposed between the second end panel and the center panel and at least one set of openings defined by the center panel extending through a first planar surface and a second planar surface of the unitary structure, the at least one set of openings configured to receive a hook of a hanger.

  • Publication number: 20130240614
    Abstract: A collapsible container is assembled from a scored sheet of material. In one arrangement, the container is configured to allow for ease of disassembly. For example, a base of the container includes a pair of opposing end walls that include an outer end wall panel coupled to the base and an inner end wall panel coupled to the outer end wall panel. The inner wall panel includes set of tabs that engage corresponding openings defined by the base and a flexion portion that allows the inner wall panel to flex relative to the base. The outer wall panel defines an opening that is substantially aligned with the score line. To disassemble the container, a user applies a load through the opening and against flexion portion. The load causes the inner wall panel to fold thereby releasing the tabs from the openings.

  • Publication number: 20110101081
    Abstract: A pre-folded file bottom box form, a method of creating the box form, and a box created from the form. The box form is created from a unitary blank of corrugated material that is die cut and creased so as to form a series of interconnected panels arranged in three rows that each include four panels. A first row has four panels that each end up in the box as a reinforcing end wall or sidewall panel; each of these panels are separated by a narrow gap. A middle row includes four panels that each end up in the box as a box end wall or sidewall panel; each of these panels is contiguous with one panel of the second row. There is a crease located between each of the middle row panels, and between each of them and the first row panel that is contiguous with it. A third row, coupled to the second row, includes first and second bottom panels and two end-wall reinforcing panels. The first and second bottom panels are each contiguous with one of the panels of the second row with a crease located between them.
