Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing a gusseted container, which method includes the steps of feeding unfolded, corrugated paper, die cut blanks sequentially from the feed module of a corrugated paper box folding apparatus through the prefold, fold and final fold modules, applying glue to the die cut blanks, creasing three gusset areas of the blanks, gathering and pleating the gusset areas, folding a panel tab against the adjacent blank panel, pressing the folded gussets and panel tab against the glue on the blanks and folding the blanks and panel tab to define the gusseted container.

Abstract: A carton folding apparatus which is characterized by multiple folder/gluer modules, including a feed module for receiving and delivering unfolded cartons, prefold/fold, fold and final fold modules for effecting specified folding and gluing operations, a delivery module for completing the folding operations and further including a stacker unit for receiving and stacking the folded and glued cartons. Each of the folder/gluer modules is capable of being removed from the apparatus line and is characterized by separate, independently driven upper and lower belt feed mechanisms for driving the cartons through that module.

Abstract: A low cost sun screen device for use on motor vehicles is disclosed comprising a perforated polymer laminate sheet which is affixed to the interior surface of the vehicle rear window. The outermost surface of the laminate sheet includes artwork and other indicia formed thereon which when viewed by an observer through the rear window of the vehicle, simulates the appearance of a three-dimensional mechanical window louvre structure. The perforated laminate sheet provides an aesthetically pleasing, effective sunshield which reduces the temperature of the interior compartment of the vehicle by as much as forty percent while insuring that occupant visibility is not adversely affected.
