Abstract: 10,057. Jenkins, C. F. April 28. Boxes made by winding sheet material materials, special, for boxes; lids and covers; powder distributors machines for fixing box ends. A spirallywound tubular receptacle for milk &c. is made from paper or fabric, or from paper and fabric combined, and is coated by dipping it in hot paraffin wax. The ends of the receptacle, consist of dished pieces, which are slipped into the circular or polygonal body. The parts of the receptacle may be built up of three layers of paper, the middle layer consisting of a coarse cheap paper and the outside layers of a high-grade paper. In the arrangement shown in Fig. 9, the ends are closed by dished pieces 23, 13, the upper piece 13 being secured by a strip or disk 39 held in place by a band 32. The piece 13 may be perforated to receive a stopper 34; covered by a paper sheet 35, which is arranged to serve as a temporary stopper in the event of the stopper 34 becoming dislodged. The piece 35 may have attached to it a tab, which bears printed matter and is secured to the body of the vessel to form a seal. The stopper 34 may have a groove 56, Fig. 25, to hold it firmly in place. The upper end piece may be inverted, as shown in Fig. 30, and may be strengthened by placing inside it one or more disks or strips of material 72, which may be covered with a disk 73 having notches to receive lugs 75 adapted to facilitate the withdrawal of the end pieces. Semicircular portions may be cut out of the upper part of the body, to facilitate removal of the end piece. In the receptacle shown in Fig. 12, which is particularly applicable for containing salt &c., the piece 13 has hollow projections 40, the tips of which may be cut off to form a sprinkling-device. Fig. 1 shows diagrammatically a machine for fixing the end pieces in place and for filling the receptacles. The tubular bodies are fed through the machine by an endlessbelt 1 having projections 4. The die-plunger 8 descends and cuts a disk from the sheet 12, and the disk is then forced through the shaping-die 9 to the bottom of the receptacle. After being filled by a device 17, the upper end of the receptacle is closed by an end piece, which is cut out and inserted by a die plunger 21 arranged similarly to the plunger 8. The filled receptacle maybe dipped into a dish containing melted paraffin wax, in order to apply an external coating to the bottom of the receptacle.
