Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a container having increased compression strength. Embodiments of the container comprise a pair of opposing side walls, each of which may include at least one layer of corrugated board having horizontal fluting and at least one layer of corrugated board having vertical fluting. Embodiments of the container also comprise a pair of opposing end walls, each of which may include at least one layer of corrugated board having horizontal fluting and at least one layer of corrugated board having vertical fluting. Embodiments of the container may be prepared from a single blank of corrugated board and may have a bottom surface that is integral with each of the side walls and each of the end walls so as to be considered leak proof. Embodiments of the container may also be configured to be collapsible to a substantially flat arrangement.

Claim (Index 1):
A container made from a single blank, the blank comprising:\n a generally rectangular center panel having ends and sides; a pair of side panels, each side panel being integrally and foldably adjoined with a side of the center panel; a pair of end panels, each end panel being integrally and foldably adjoined with an end of the center panel; four foldable corner panels, each corner panel integrally and foldably adjoined with each of a side panel and an end panel, and each corner panel comprising a diagonal score line; a pair of end support panels, each end support panel being integrally and foldably adjoined with an end panel; and four side support panels, each side support panel being integrally and foldably adjoined with an end support panel; wherein, upon the folding of the blank to create the container, each of the two corner panels that are integrally and foldably adjoined to an end panel fold so as to be adjacent to the inner surface of the end panel, and the end support panel that is integrally and foldably adjoined with the end panel folds down over the top of the folded corner panels to form each end wall of the container, such that each end wall comprises a predominantly four layer construction; wherein, upon folding of the blank to create the container, each of the side support panels folds so as to be adjacent to the inner surface of a side panel to form the side walls of the container, such that each side wall comprises a predominantly two layer construction; and wherein the blank comprises corrugated board and wherein one layer of each side wall comprises horizontal fluting and the other layer of each side wall comprises vertical fluting, providing the container with improved compression strength.
