BLANK FOR PASTEBOARD BOXES.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 407,493, dated July 23, 1889.

Application filed A ril 10, 1889. Serial No. 306,677. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, THEODOR REMUS, a subject of the Emperor of Russia, residing in the city of Dresden, Saxony, Germany, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Blanks for Pasteboard Boxes, of which the following is a specification.

The object of my invention is to provide blanks for making pasteboard boxes, which blanks are to be provided with edge and angle bindings, so that a complete and finished box can be made from said blanks without requiring any subsequent pasting on or applying of binding-strips.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is aface View of the outer surface of my improved blank before the bindin =strips are applied. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the binding-strips applied. Fig. 3 is a view of the face of a grooved blank before the binding-strips are applied. Fig.4is a view of the same after the strips have been applied. Fig. 5 is an enlarged detail view of part of the grooved blank in the flattened state. Fig. (3 is a similar view showing the blank bent up to form a box, parts broken out.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

The pasteboard sheet A is creasedon its inner surface along the lines a a to facilitate bending it up to form a box. Edge-binding strips B are pasted on the edges of the sheet A, and strips O are pasted on the outer surface of the blank along the lines of the creases a a to form the angle-bindings for the box formed by bending up the blank.

In case the pasteboard is thick the anglebinding strips C are apt to be ruptured by bending up the blank to form the box, and to avoid this grooves b are cut into the outer surface of the pasteboard sheet along the lines of the creases, and the angle-binding strips are pasted to the outer surface of the sheet along the sides of the grooves,only the longitudinal central parts of the strips being raised to form hollow ridges over the grooves. When the blank is bent up, the said hollow ridges are stretched as shown in Fig. 6 and finish off the angles, and the strips are not ruptured.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. As an improved article of manufacture, a blank for pasteboard boxes, consisting of a creased sheet of pasteboard provided'on the outer surface of the sheet and along the lines of the creases with angle-binding strips pasted thereon and edge-binding strips past-ed on they THEODOR REMUS.
