Variable-size carton blank

摘要

A blank of suitable materials such as corrugated paper board of generally rectangular configuration is provided with two fold lines spaced equally from opposite long edges of the blank and is provided with three fold lines spaced equally from each of the short ends of the blank with the spacing of the fold lines determining the depth of the carton to be produced. A pair of spaced fold lines are provided adjacent to the middle portion of the blank at right angles to the long edges thereof and spaced at the same distance as the other fold lines to provide the back for the carton and to provide along one edge thereof a hinge line for the top of the carton. Certain of the fold lines are cut to provide tabs and each short side of the blank is provided with spaced tabs to lock the components of the carton together in assembled condition. At least six cartons of variable sizes may be folded from the carton blank.
