Abstract:
1. A box construction comprising: A) an outer member which comprises: (i) a rectangular base panel having a length and a width defining two oppositely positioned longitudinal ends and two oppositely positioned transverse ends perpendicular to the longitudinal ends; an inner side panel, the inner side panel being hingedly joined to one of said transverse ends of the rectangular base panel at an inner side panel fold line, which inner side panel fold line extends between the inner side panel and the rectangular base panel; a pair of inner end panels, one of said inner end panels being hingedly joined to each of the longitudinal ends of the rectangular base panel at a first end panel fold line which extends between said base panel and a respective first end panel; each of the inner end panels having a corner panel extending outwardly from a side of one of said inner end panels and being attached to a respective first end panel at a corner panel fold line which corner panel fold line is adjacent to and positioned perpendicular to a respective first end panel fold line; ii) an intermediate side panel having a length and a width defining two oppositely positioned longitudinal ends and two oppositely positioned transverse ends perpendicular to the longitudinal ends, the intermediate side panel being hingedly joined to an opposite transverse end of the rectangular base panel at an intermediate side panel fold line, which intermediate side panel fold line extends between said intermediate side panel and the rectangular base panel; a pair of dust panels, one dust panel attached at each of the oppositely positioned transverse ends of the intermediate side panel at a dust panel fold line; iii) a rectangular top panel having a length and a width defining two oppositely positioned longitudinal ends and two oppositely positioned transverse ends perpendicular to the longitudinal ends; the rectangular top panel being hingedly joined along one transverse end of the rectangular top panel to the intermediate side panel at a second intermediate side panel fold line opposite to the intermediate side panel fold line; a pair of outer end panels, one of said outer end panels being hingedly joined to each of the longitudinal ends of the rectangular top panel at an outer end panel fold line which extends a distance between said rectangular top panel and a respective outer end panel; an outer side panel, the outer side panel being hingedly joined to the opposite transverse end of the rectangular top panel at an outer side panel fold line which outer side panel fold line extends a distance between said outer side panel and the rectangular top panel; and iv.) a plurality of cavities, at least one cavity being positioned through the inner side panel at a position adjacent to the inner side panel fold line and another cavity being positioned through the intermediate side panel at a position adjacent to the intermediate side panel fold line; or at least one cavity being positioned through each of the inner end panels at a position adjacent to a respective inner end panel fold line between the base panel and the respective inner end panel; and B) an inner member which comprises a planar, rectangular panel having a length and a width defining two oppositely positioned longitudinal ends and two oppositely positioned transverse ends; a plurality of stubs extending outwardly from oppositely positioned ends of the planar, rectangular panel and said stubs being within the plane of the planar, rectangular panel; each of the stubs of the inner member being positioned within one of the cavities of the outer member.
