PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Packing Media for Milk Cans and the like Articles.
We, ARTHUR ENOCH FROST, a Director of The Dairy Outfit Company, Limited,
and THE DAIRY OUTFIT COMPANY LIMITED, both of 251, Pentonville Road, in the
Administrative County of London, do hereby declare the nature of this invention
to be as follows: -
The object of this invention is to provide packing media whereby milk cans
and like articles having bail handles can be packed side by side with their bodies
isolated from each other thus preventing the articles from rubbing against each
other in transit and the consequent scratching of their body surfaces. The inven-
tion is primarily intended for packing articles when sent out new from the factory,
but may be used with old or soiled articles if so desired. It is of course an
advantage when the packing medium employed is of an inexpensive character so
that it need not be returned to the manufacturer or sender, and this advantage is
obtained by the present invention.
The packing media which form the subject of this invention are made in the
shape of bags or envelopes from paper, papier maché, thin card or any other light
and inexpensive material, and are formed with open bottoms, closed tops padded
or thickened at the sides or shoulders, and with a slit or aperture in said top
through which the bail handle can be passed. A bag or envelope of this kind is
slipped over the top of the can or other article, the handle of which is passed
through the slit or aperture aforementioned, and the bag or envelope then hangs
by its thickened or padded parts on the shoulders of the can or other article.

We, ARTHUR ENOCH FROST, a Director of The Dairy Outfit Company Limited,
and THE DAIRY OUTFIT COMPANY, LIMITED, both of 251, Pentonville Road, in the
Administrative County of London, do hereby declare the nature of this invention
and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement:-
-

advantage when the packing medium employed is of an inexpensive character so
that it need not be returned to the manufacturer or sender, and this advantage is
obtained by the present invention.
The packing media which form the subject of this invention are made in the
shape of bags or envelopes from paper, papier mache thin card or any other light
and inexpensive material, and are formed with open bottoms, closed tops padded
or thickened at the sides or shoulders, and with a slit or aperture in said top through
which the bail handle can be passed. A bag or envelope of this kind is slipped
over the top of the can or other article, the handle of which is passed through the
slit or aperture aforementioned, and the bag or envelope then hangs by its thickened
or padded parts of the shoulders of the can or other article. In the accompanying
drawings a perspective view is shown of a milk can A having a bag or envelope B
of the kind herein before described slipped over it so as to encase every part except
the bail handle a which, as before stated, is passed through the slit or aperture b
in the top b¹ of the bag or envelope B. The top b¹ or the parts thereof adjacent
to the slit or aperture 6 are preferably padded or thickened so as to form shoulders.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is :-
A packing medium for milk cans and the like articles consisting of a bag or
envelope having an open bottom and a closed top with a slit or aperture therein
substantially as described.
