An Improvement in Boxes for Cards and the like.
WILLIAM EMIL JULIUS WUSTLICH, of 68, Grosvenor Road, Highbury New
Park, in the County of London, Printer, do hereby declare the nature of this
invention to be as follows;-
-
The invention relates to improvements in the manufacture of boxes prin-
cipally made out of paper or cardboard, for holding cards, or such like articles.
I proceed to describe, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a box
constructed according to this invention
Fig 1 shows a blank out of which the box is formed. The dotted lines
represent the folding lines which form the corners and edges of the box when
made up.
Fig 2 shows a perspective view of the box complete with one end closed
and the other open shewing cards contained therein.
Fig 3 is an enlarged broken diagram of the parts of the blank which form
the fastening and which is the basis of my invention.
Fig. 4 is the same as Fig. 3 but brought together and fastened.
The same letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
The blank (Fig 1) is cut out in the usual way part (a) forming a tongue
which is provided with two notches, as shown at a¹ and a³, part (b) shews where
and in what manner, the blank is cut to admit of the tongue (4). The two
ends of the eut run diagonally as shown b¹ and 6ª
The blank is slit as shown at c, c', c³ & c³, thus forming lips as shewn d, d',
&d which protect the corners of the cards when the box is closed.
The blank is scored, or creased, at the parts where the dotted lines are
shewn
The parts & are for the purpose of closing the box at ends
In folding the blank to form the box, the parts a & b, are brought together,
then the tongue (a) is passed through the cut (b) when the tongue will clear
the cut at its widest points as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 3, the tongue
passing sufficiently through so that the notches at and a², will clear inwardly
and grip under, and behind, the corners of the out (b) as indicated by dotted
lines in Fig 4 The tongue is only slightly withdrawn and so interlocks and
fastens the two sides of the box together.
When cards or such like articles are inserted, the interlocked parts will
form a band across the top of the box. The lips d d d & d³ are folded inward
over the corners of the cards and the parts e & e¹ are now folded' over and the
tabs inserted under the band

WILLIAM EMIL JULIUS WUSTLICH, of 68, Grosvenor Road, Highbury New
Paik, in the County of London, Printer, 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..

The invention relates to improvements in the manufacture of boxes prin-
cipally made out of paper or cardboard, for holding cards, or such like articles
I proceed to descube, with reference to the drawings accompanying the
Provisional Specification, a box constructed according to this invention
Fig. 1 shows a blank out of which the box is formed The dotted lines
represent the folding lines which form the corners and edges of the box when
made up.
Fig 2 shows a perspective view of the box complete with one end closed
and the other open shewing cards contained therein.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged broken diagram of the parts of the blank which form
the fastening and which is the basis of my invention
Fig 4 is the same as Fig 3 but brought together and fastened
The same letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figuies.
The blank Fig. 1 18 cut out in the usual way part (a) forming a tongue
which is provided with two notches, as shewn at a and a², part (b) shews where
and in what manner, the blank is cut to admit of the tongue (a) The two
ends of the cut un diagonally as shewn 61 and 62
The blank is slit as shewn at c, c', &, thus forming lips as shewn d, d', dª
& d³ which protect the corners of the cards when the box is closed.
The blank 18 scored, or creased at the parts where the dotted lines are
shewn.
་
The parts e & e¹ are for the purpose of closing the box at ends
In folding the blank to form the box, the parts a & b, are brought together
then the tongue (a) 18 passed through the cut (b) when the tongue will clear
the cut at its widest points as indicated by the dotted lines in Fig 3 the tongue
passing sufficiently through so that the notches a¹ and a³, will clear inwardly
and grip under, and behind, the coiners of the cut (b) as indicated by dotted
lines in Fig. 4. The tongue is only slightly withdrawn and so interlocks and
fastens the two sides of the box together
When cards or such like articles are inserted, the interlocked parts will
form a band across the top of the box The lips dd & dare folded inward
over the corners of the cards and the parts e & el are now folded over and the
tabs inserted under the band
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is..
The method of combining the two sides of the box as herebefore described
and shewn at a a² & a and b b & b in the drawings accompanying the Pro-
visional Specification
