摘要

Various embodiments of the invention provided a garment box comprising a bottom panel and a container portion that includes a first side wall, a second side wall, a third side wall, and a fourth side wall. In particular embodiments, the garment box further includes a walled enclosure portion contiguous to the first side wall and comprising a first fold over panel, a second fold over panel, and a third fold over panel. In particular embodiments, the first and third fold over panels include holes located proximate a mid-point of the panels and the second fold over panel includes a slot. The holes are configured to support a rod that is inserted into the walled enclosure portion. The rod is configured to support one or more heads of clothes hangers inserted through the slot and hung on the rod to secure clothes placed in the container portion for shipping.

主权项

1. A garment box assembly comprising at least a foldable garment box, the foldable garment box comprising:
(1) a bottom panel; (2) a container portion comprising at least a first side wall, wherein the first side wall is adjacent to and at an approximate right angle relative to the bottom panel; and (3) contiguous to the first side wall, a walled enclosure portion, wherein the walled enclosure portion comprises:
(a) a first fold over panel comprising a hole located proximate a mid-point of the first fold over panel, the hole configured to at least partially support a rod that may be inserted into the walled enclosure portion, the rod being configured for the hanging thereon of one or more heads of clothes hangers;(b) a second fold over panel adjacent an inside edge of the first fold over panel and at an approximate right angle to the first fold over panel comprising a transverse slot extending a width of the second fold over panel and located proximate a mid-point of the second fold over panel and approximately aligned with the hole located in the first fold over panel, the transverse slot being configured so that the one or more heads of the clothes hangers can be inserted and placed around the rod so that the one or more heads of the clothes hangers are secured during handling and shipping of the garment box; and(c) a third fold over panel adjacent an inside edge of the second fold over panel and adjacent an outside edge of the first side wall and at an approximate right angle to the second fold over panel and the outside edge of the first side wall, the third fold over panel comprising a hole located proximate a mid-point of the third fold over panel, the hole configured to at least partially support the rod that is inserted into the walled enclosure portion on which the one or more heads of the clothes hangers are hung, wherein interposition of the first, second, and third fold over panels forms the walled enclosure portion such that:
(1) the first fold over panel is positioned inside the walled enclosure portion and lays juxtaposition on top of the bottom panel;(2) the second fold over panel is positioned approximately perpendicular to the bottom panel and comprises a width that extends approximately from the bottom panel to a top of the walled enclosure portion;(3) the third fold over panel is positioned approximately parallel to and facing the first fold over panel and on an opposite side of the width of the second fold over panel from the first fold over panel; and(4) the hole in the first fold over panel and the hole in the third fold over panel are approximately aligned with one another so that the rod can be inserted into the hole in the third fold over panel and passed through the walled enclosure portion and come to rest in the hole in the first fold over panel.
